LIM & traction control light is lit - no start condition / CLK 320

Hi I borrowed my car to my father and yesterday after he had parked it for a few hours and was about to drive again two warning lights are lit on the dashboard and the car will not even start. So far the car has never failed in such a way. It is a CLK 320 from 1998 with 150 000km on the clock.

Suggestions would be helpful. The battery was fully charged a couple of days ago. The car has been sitting during winter. So this was the 3rd drive of the season basically.

I will check fault codes and try disconnecting/reconnecting the battery to see if that helps.

It was the battery that had a low state of charge.
