How do you clear a low brake alert on my C230 kompressor sport sedan.?

I changed my brake pads and turned the rotors since they within spec. The brake wear message is still coming on the dash when I brake. how do I reset the alert to not come on until the pads are worn down again?How do you clear a low brake alert on my C230 kompressor sport sedan.?
I have the same car and do all my work myself. First you need to make sure a new brake sensor was installed when the pads were changed. It's a small wire that fits on the calliper on the front passenger side of the vehicle. To reset the dash light: Get in the car and close all the doors. Turn the key to the 2 position (on but before the engine starts). Scroll the screen to the %26quot;service%26quot; section. Hold the reset button (same button you'd use to reset the mileage meter) in for 10 seconds. Release it, then hold it in again for 3 seconds. If the brake sensor wasn't replaced, you can buy one online very cheaply (less than $5).How do you clear a low brake alert on my C230 kompressor sport sedan.?
Is it the emergency brake light coming on or brake pad wear indicator coming on. If its the brake pad wear indicator than the sensor is not properly installed at the brake pads or it is the other set of pads that are low.How do you clear a low brake alert on my C230 kompressor sport sedan.?
SAME THING HAPPEN TO ME......MAKE SURE YOU USE MBZ BRAKE PADS AND YOU REALLY SHOULD ALWAYS REPLACE TO ROTORS EACH TIME PER MBZ BUT IF YOU DONT HAVE THE $ USE THE MBZ PADS AND RETURN THE DISK FRONT AND REAR..
