This is the one I’ve been waiting for Nick - after 18 months I now FULLY understand my Mercedes Climate Control!! - maybe in the future, Mercedes will clone you for every dealership! :- ) - Cheers Mate - Peter.
Yes!!! Please more NICK we want 😊 Because people don’t know nothing about this car where I live (did I should mention location?🤔😂) I don’t know who’s employed them…🤔 😖
The heated mirrors trick is genius, as is the re-circulation button. These are things no dealership or manual will ever teach you. Thanks again Nick, I really hope someone at Mercedes HQ recognises what an invaluable service you are providing. 👍
@Maxima Plane The heated side mirrors is hardly genius. I have a 8 year old Honda that does this 'genius' trick. (As to whether this info is covered in the Merc manual I don't know, but for my old car, the heated mirrors is mentioned). Same for A/C, for me at least, I have known for years and years that a) yes, run the A/C periodically in Winter to keep the seals in good shape b) using the A/C will defog the interior very quickly. Now - if only I could afford to update my old Honda for a Merc :-(
@@birreboi 👍 Totally agree, next they'll be asking what's that round thing protruding from the dashboard?😂 Probably be asking "Hey Mercedes" to steer for them! Oh wait ..they have.🙄
Having just bought my E class I can safely say, you have taught me MORE than mercedes did about my car! Now off to see what other Tips and Tricks videos you have
Hi Nick. This is my 3rd day driving my car and I remember watching this video weeks before I got my A220. When I drove the car yesterday I knew I needed to rewatch this video again now that I have the car. Thank you for your Amazing videos. They are truly very very helpful. 😊
I've had my A220 for two months and I finally learned how to use the climate control, thank you Nick! It would be nice if all these dealers actually taught you this.
Currently, cars are purchased online then just delivered. The person delivering the car tries to help but there is too much info (this was the case when I got my EQC). These videos have been absolutely brilliant and made me enjoy my merc even more. Thanks, Nick please keep making these videos. Great tempo and wonderfully explained. I am surprised Merc has not employed you yet 😀
That’s so true. I ordered mine online and a year ago and got it delivered now. And with all the chip shortages, the wireless charging has been removed and the track pace too. 😞 And as Mr. Mark said, they don’t give you all this info when you pick up Your car.
I deliver Mercs that have been purchased online and, you're right, it's just too much information for someone to take onboard. Factor that with the excitement of their brand new car pulling up on the drive! But, I do try and make sure they know the important basics like pairing their phone and all the safety features. I wouldn't want them trying to figure it out on their first drive. I think Mercedes should have video like these built into the system so that the user can access them when they need to find out something. Or at least give them a USB Stick with videos they can watch explaining all the features. I have a Range Rover and I found loads of official videos showing how things work. For features like Self Parking, Cruise Control, Lane Assist etc. it's essential
Had no idea the recirculation button would roll windows up if pressed & held. I also realized I need to utilize my Hey Mercedes more. Thanks as always for the tips & tricks.
Had a look around a new C class this week when the A35 was getting serviced… new C interior with large central screen looks amazing, really moving the tech to the next level.
Hi Nick, we've just got an EQB and love it, we have seen a few of your videos now and just wanted to say that they have been really helpful in getting to know our new Mercedes. This is our first Mercedes car (we've always had VW Group Cars) so it was getting used to a whole new system, but thanks to you it's been quite easy. Appreciate your time and effort in making these videos they really help.
Ah amazing thank you! Glad you enjoy them! I’ve got some more Mercedes videos coming soon! And as I run my RUclips Channel as a full time job I also cover VW and BMW too! Although there is more Mercedes stuff at the moment 👍🏼
A/C should never be switched off. There is a lubricating oil that goes through with the gas and keeps the rubber seals hydrated and prevents leaks. Great video as usual Nick 👍
Thank you so much Nick. I had to have my car delivered on 2nd March as we are still shielding. I really don’t think I would have been able to drive my hybrid without you. I use you as a instant reference. Maggie
One of the things I recently noticed is that the lights around the air vents change colour as you change the temperature. Really cool when you notice. They go red when you turn up the temperature and blue as you turn it down.
Really love it how you explain and get in details with anything and everything a Mercedes owner needs to know. I haven't taken delivery of my Mercedes yet but i am already excited to check everything out that i am learning from you. Keep it up
Funny thing about recirculation button. It always deactivate after some time. So it doesn’t always on in my W213 hybrid. With older model which still use slider, you can keep that on recirculation mode, very useful if you live in hot climate country.
Mercedes has set it to be deactivated because it could lead to low oxygen levels in the cabin and driver might face issues. That is because Mercedes cars are known to be very insulated which means not allowing much of fresh air. As such that circulation is turned off to allow fresh air in.
As a new owner, I found this video really helpful! Mercedes was very good while we were buying the car, but hasn't answered any questions after we'd bought it!
Great video! I just got my GLE and was not quite familiar with the climate control system. I learned what would have taken me sometime to figure out by reading the manual. Thanks for your great instructional video.
On my c class (w205) holding the menu button down for 30secs resets the climate control to 22C/Sync/auto… perfect for after the passenger has been messing with the climate control!
So I just picked up my 22 E53 and I love it and these videos are crazy with the little things I did not know. I am a second time Benz owner and my 05 CLK does not touch my current model. Great videos man. I have US version of course
Thanks again Nick for another useful video. Having the air conditioning on all the time also helps keep the system seals lubricated thus avoiding possible system leaks. I like the recirculation button hidden tip, very useful. Cheers... M
In the winter I used to just blast the heat on HI out of the vents in front of me, along with my heated seats. But I would get to hot and have to roll down the window and it would always fog up inside. Then I turned on auto with HI and it's way more comfortable not to hot and just enjoying the heat no fog.
Depends on what car you have, if you an internal combustion engine (petrol / diesel) it barely uses any fuel these days. However if it’s a plug-in hybrid or an electric car this does use a lot more power so I’d only say to turn it on when you need it then.
Great video again nick, without your informative teachings it would take months if not years to understand it all Great work thanks for your time. Kingsley
Got a strange one for you Nick. Driving along in the A45S at night, I press the physical button to lower the temperature by half a degree and at the same time all the Ambient lighting completely goes off for and the wireless charging would stop, but after 10 seconds it then slowly fades back in to full brightness, and the wireless charging starts up again. It would do this when changing the temp up or down on either side the car. I then changed the Ambient lighting to 1 single colour instead of the multicolour that it was on, and it would then would all work as normal. So increasing or decreasing the temp would not turn off the lighting. Does this sound like a problem to you, as I can't say I've ever noticed it do this before.
That does sound a tad strange…can’t say I’ve ever seen that before…have you spoken with your local Mercedes? They might be able to just double check if there are any updates for the multimedia system which may sort that…
Yeah strange…I haven’t heard of that ever happening before, the lighting should always stay on and of course does go Blue/Red when adjusting the climate control.
Best to check with your local Mercedes as specification can vary 🤓 Packages may have changed since then 👍🏼 I seem to recall it was on the Premium Package though
Good to know I'm doing the right thing and having the AC on all year round. One tutorial you may not be able to do is how to connect to Android Auto wirelessly in an EQC - I wish you could!
Hey Steve sadly most models of Mercedes can’t make use of Wireless Android Auto as they don’t have a wireless receiver to do it. Hopefully future models will have it but we’ll have to wait and see!
Hi Nick. I really love your guides which have helped me understand my Merc a lot better! I’ve learned so much but one area I would love you to cover is accessing my Music on my usb stick under media. I find it so difficult to find what I want to listen to without scrolling down the hundreds of artists and albums I have on my stick! Many thanks Brian
1:38 I really appreciate the bank of switches that I can feel for without taking my eyes off the road while driving. IMO the larger touch pad only screen on new models without switches is a retrograde step with respect to safety. I will be hanging on to my two MBs as long as possible and not replacing them with a newer models with what I consider to be inferior, and potentially dangerous,controls. ( It’s illegal to text while driving but designers consider it OK to take your eyes of the road to position your finger on a touch screen) I do hope the marketing people get the message that some people prefer knobs and switches and often have got better things to do than talk to their car while driving.
DID YOU KNOW? When using Hey Mercedes and the fan speed is at the higher levels, it will automatically lower the fan so it can hear your voice easier, and once you've finished saying the command, it will return to the original speed. Also you can use Hey Mercedes to turn on/off the front demister, which is very handy if you are not sure which button it is when driving. Again you can use Hey Mercedes to increase or decrease the fan speed.
Phew thought I was watching last of the Mohicans lol, who cut your hair Nick we can go round and sort them out for you 😂. Great vid as usual I know more every time I watch your videos 👍
Hi Nick. Thanks for the video. Is there a way to keep the air-recirculation ALWAYS ON please? as I need this due to heavy pollution issues. Most cars maintain their air-recirculation always ON but not Merc.
Hey Kenneth, no worries! 🤓 No sadly not, it’s not stated in the manual but I’d imagine it’s something to do with the carbon dioxide build up that we exhale. After a while it automatically reopens to allow fresh air in
@@npoleary thats great. Ill keep a look out and 🔔 is on. I have been trying to find vids online for the 2021 a class dashboard but nothing...i know most are the similar but it would be good to see!
I think your comment on the Aircon/Rest button is incorrect. I've got a B250e plug-in and it's got the Rest facility. I've never used it as the manual is a bit confusing so I will try it after watching your video. The pre-setting of the heater which I've been using in the winter seems to be a bit hit and miss. I've got2 days set on the weekly setting but if I put a one-off in and then put it back to weekly, it doesn't always work. Still, as always, very informative.
Thanks William! Glad you enjoy the other videos! I have covered the latest G63 here: ruclips.net/video/rkPa0yZan_g/видео.html Haven’t managed to get my hands on the diesel version though, they are quite rare!
Very useful. How to turn OFF the outside air flow always as default setting for every drive? I need to manually turn OFF the outside airlfow always and it automatically turns ON for outside air flow after sometime. This is annoying in summer hot conditions.
It’s because the air quality deteriorates very quickly when the recirculation is on so it automatically opens again to allow fresh air in. A driver can become drowsy and humidity can build up on the inside depending on the conditions and settings of the climate control. There are a couple of other car manufacturers that open it automatically after a set time too. I remember someone commenting about it when I produced the video.
Another good one Nick. If the climate control starts miss behaving it was the overhead unit which has a tiny fan blowing air over the temperature control unit. The filter blocks so temperature control goes haywire. Had mine replaced under warranty. The second one is different (no sunglasses holder anymore) also faulty started making a noise. They replaced it again But wait for it…with a standard one with no sunroof controls! No one noticed it was wrong! Still waiting for it on back order.
The Recirculate auto window close does not seem to work on my ‘24 GLE AMG. I have the Rest mode button. And it’s the newest MBUX. Any ideas on how to have the windows auto roll up like you demonstrated?
Hey sadly not had access to a new GLE yet, I made this video a little while ago but I’m planning on a newer tips and tricks video soon! And I’m hoping to film a GLE soon when I get my hands on one too!
Yes it will automatically open the vents to allow fresh air in as the quality of the air deteriorates quickly in cars with it on. I’ve checked in the manual sadly it can’t be changed.
Hey there do you have an instruct video on how to setup ambient light for when I change temp hot/cold. My ambient light stays on same color no matter temp change especially hot. Thanks
Sadly not all Mercedes can do it, it depends on when they introduced it. If a car can do it, I seem to recall it was under the menu HOME, COMFORT, AMBIENT LIGHTING, and it was an option called Climate if it could do it.

Would you please include the 2019 and newer G Wagon in some of your videos. You have a wonderful channel!
Thanks William! Glad you enjoy the other videos!
I have covered the latest G63 here: ruclips.net/video/rkPa0yZan_g/видео.html
Haven’t managed to get my hands on the diesel version though, they are quite rare!
Wow that's wonderful 👏❤️
Very useful. How to turn OFF the outside air flow always as default setting for every drive? I need to manually turn OFF the outside airlfow always and it automatically turns ON for outside air flow after sometime. This is annoying in summer hot conditions.
Ah it’ll automatically let fresh air in so there is no way permanently keep it off from what I’ve seen. After a set time it’ll let air back in.
@@npoleary Thanks Nik for your quick response. This is very annoying feature compared to other brands.
It’s because the air quality deteriorates very quickly when the recirculation is on so it automatically opens again to allow fresh air in. A driver can become drowsy and humidity can build up on the inside depending on the conditions and settings of the climate control.
There are a couple of other car manufacturers that open it automatically after a set time too. I remember someone commenting about it when I produced the video.
Outro grande video. Obrigado pela partilha.
i love my mercedes and i love u man you very very good explana thanku very much 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thank you! 🙏 ☺️
Thanks for the great video! About the Rest function; do you need to press it AFTER you switch off the engine?
Thank you!
As you’re leaving yeah 🤓
Another good one Nick. If the climate control starts miss behaving it was the overhead unit which has a tiny fan blowing air over the temperature control unit. The filter blocks so temperature control goes haywire. Had mine replaced under warranty. The second one is different (no sunglasses holder anymore) also faulty started making a noise. They replaced it again But wait for it…with a standard one with no sunroof controls! No one noticed it was wrong! Still waiting for it on back order.
Thank you! 🤓
Oh right I haven’t heard of that one before…at least it’s being looked and sorted for you!
The Recirculate auto window close does not seem to work on my ‘24 GLE AMG. I have the Rest mode button. And it’s the newest MBUX. Any ideas on how to have the windows auto roll up like you demonstrated?
Hey sadly not had access to a new GLE yet, I made this video a little while ago but I’m planning on a newer tips and tricks video soon!
And I’m hoping to film a GLE soon when I get my hands on one too!
How do you stop the recirculation button turning off by itself?
Yes it will automatically open the vents to allow fresh air in as the quality of the air deteriorates quickly in cars with it on. I’ve checked in the manual sadly it can’t be changed.
Hai man u inspired me to bye an MB. I bought GLC just a week ago
Oh awesome! What colour did you go for? 👀🤓
@@npoleary cavansite blue
Very nice! Such a good colour! At night, it’s almost black but then on a sunny day it’s blue 👌🏼
Hi Vishnu… I also have a GLC let me know if you find any hidden features 😁
@@lex0725 same with u friend👍🏼👍🏼😉
Hi Nick, useful information as always thanks for another great video 🙏
Thanks Jag! 👍🏼
Glad you enjoyed this week’s one!
Working on the next one already! 😜
Hey there do you have an instruct video on how to setup ambient light for when I change temp hot/cold. My ambient light stays on same color no matter temp change especially hot. Thanks
Sadly not all Mercedes can do it, it depends on when they introduced it.
If a car can do it, I seem to recall it was under the menu HOME, COMFORT, AMBIENT LIGHTING, and it was an option called Climate if it could do it.
If your A/C is on auto you can use the fan speed button to put a maximum speed for the fans atleast on the one he's using.
Rear window heater also turns on exterior mirrors heater. Something many of MB dealers don't know. Sorry, I commented before watched till the end :)
Haha 👀
