To adjust the brightness of the display on a Mercedes S-Class, you need to use two different input controls: to change the brightness of the instrument cluster, use the lever located to the left of the steering wheel, near the controls for adjusting the lights.

Pulling this lever upward will increase the brightness, and vice versa; to adjust the brightness of the central display, select the "System" option using the steering wheel controls.

Then select "Display and designs" and subsequently "Display brightness": this way, you can adjust the brightness by moving the slider.
