To reset the partial odometer of a Mercedes S-Class, start by turning on the instrument panel without starting the engine. Use the buttons on the steering wheel to access the onboard computer menu.

Navigate through the menu options using the selection buttons, usually arrows or wheels, until you reach the partial odometer screen. Once on this screen, look for the option that allows you to reset the count.

When you find the correct option for the reset, select it by holding down the confirm button on the steering wheel. The system will notify you that the partial odometer has been reset and will return to zero.

This process is simple and quick, and allows you to accurately monitor the distances traveled from a new reference point. After the reset, verify that the odometer has actually returned to zero.

If necessary, repeat the procedure following the steps carefully. This operation is useful for tracking distances on trips or monitoring fuel consumption on specific routes.
