reset cup holder
Drifted a little bit with car. cup holder on dash came on. Is there any other way to reset it without turning car off? I do not have the manual with me. Thanks

Yes, press OK on the wheel. You shouldn't be driving and posting on this forum. I often drift around when doing that also.

In my experience the thing just comes on after a couple hours of steady driving no matter how careful you are driving. It's always a great time when my wife leans over and says "what's that beeping noise" with a red cluster asking me if I need a rest....wtf?, thanks MB!

driving 10 straight hours from Florida going north and it went off. Going down no problem. Today 9 hours and no problem. I guess it must be working properly. I appreciate the people with the easy solution. Thanks again.

This happened to me on a recent road trip... 5 hours. I realised that out of habit when I get behind a slower vehicle, I move to the side to see around it. The car picked that up and interpreted it as drifting.

I guess you didn't read the manual!

That cup symbol means you are too sleepy to drive --- take your hands off the wheel and the car will take over.
