I have an 09 but had an 06. You have to cycle through the display using the buttons on the left side of your steering wheel. It is frustrating as even on my 09 it is not easy to get to. I do not have my owners manual handy, I am out of town at the moment. If you are unable to figure it out I will look it up in my manual when I return home

Just remembered if you are a member of owners online, it is free to join, you can download an 06 owners manual. Go to mbusa.com and click on the owners online located on the right side of the web page near the top

Ok. Press the buttons to move through the display until you see the cars odometer display. The display of the total miles on the car not the trip odometer. Once you see this display, press the up arrow 2 or 3 times and you should then see the coolant temp displayed.

You should be able to register for the owners online. Should not matter where you bought the car. My cousin bought her S class from a private seller and registered.

Hope the above directions work for the 09. If you want send me a private message, include your email address and I will forward the 06 owners manual to you. It will be in a PDF format
