OBDII

I just acquired an OBDII Bluetooth reader for my IPhone it plugs into my Porsche no problem. I need some help finding the port on my ML 350 (08). Anyone know where it is located so I can plug this in. I don't even know what I can do with it but I would like to reset a service "C" code. my understanding is it is just because I don't go to the dealer often enough?

Thanks, Ed. My bifocals don't see very well standing on my head. As many times I have opened that hood and I still have a more difficult time opening the hood than I should have. Now I can reach for the OBDII port and just to the left is the hood release. My OBDII works great but does not allow me reset service reminders. MB just doesn't allow cheap access I guess?
