I would choose not to use any Chinese scanner for this car.
Xentry system is more cheap if you are willing to use a laptop.
The message with the thermometer could be related with engine fan or coolant sensors.

Diagnostic Tool(s)
As @JettaRed perfectly said ... Contact @BenzNinja at www.benzninja.com. In addition to helping you acquire an SDS, he can also help you diagnose problems remotely.Being able to scan using a Mercedes-specific tool is the first step anyone will suggest. XENTRY is the scan and diagnosis tool that is part of the Star Diagnostics System (SDS). If you get it from BenzNinja, you will have lifetime support for all of your Mercedes. Well worth the investment.In addition to XENTRY, you will get the Workshop Information System (WIS), the Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC), Vediamo, DTS Monaco, Starfinder, and professional diagnostics support.
