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.
Thanks 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…🤔 😖
1:34 me too

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. 👍
Thank you! 🙏🙏
@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
Ah awesome! Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching! 🤓
Same for me👍
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 😀
Thanks Mark! Glad you’re enjoying the videos!
Oh making videos full time like this at Mercedes HQ would be amazing!
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
I bought one from the show room and was told to study the manual …. Luckily I came across this channel that’s helped me out and saved me time .
Woooo! Thank you 🙏
Ah - glad I found this. The MB climate control had me baffled - now Mr Nick sets us straight!
Haha I’ve got a more up to date version of this coming soon! With questions answered that people always ask! 🙏
This is absolutely helpful knowing all these info. I had no idea that turning the AC will dehumidify the interior windows in both winter and summer. I also thought the heated side view mirrors was part of a package. Thanks for this tips!
No worries! Glad you found it useful! 🤓
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.
I am thrilled to know about rest mode. My R class had it & it's great for keeping my dogs warm while I run into a store in frigid temps. Thanks Nick.
I loved that feature on my R class for same reason
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.
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.
Holding the recirculation button will close all windows and the sunroof, and re-open them to the same point afterwards.
It didn’t work on mine.
I’ve been looking for my mirror demister button, never knew it worked in conjunction with rear demister.
Thank you mate.
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 UA-cam Channel as a full time job I also cover VW and BMW too! Although there is more Mercedes stuff at the moment 👍🏼
I was actually trying to find a video on this yesterday! Great video again Nick!
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 👍
What when you want warm air still keep the air con on haha I’m only watching this vid to be sure I’m turning it off 🤣🤣
@@PaulJones-xl6xq Do you think modern air con only produces cold air ya nugget
@@andicampbell8621I did.
Brilliant timing, was just saying to the wife yesterday I have no f*** idea how this climate control works or what the different options are for
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.
You can turn this feature on/off
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!
Glad you found the video helpful! 😎
Hi, I've just bought an A class with all these buttons. This video is ingenious and I have learnt loads, thanks so much.
Ooo very nice! Glad you enjoyed the video! 🙏
I just got my car delivered and so happy to watch this video. It explains so much in 15mins! thanks for taking the time to do this!
No worries! 🤓👍🏼
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
No worries Maggie! Glad you enjoy the videos! I’ll try and keep them coming each week! 🤓
Thanks Nick. Very insightful. Have a good weekend.
Useful as always - thanks Nick!
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
Awwwh thank you! Glad you’re enjoying the videos! 🙏🤓
Thanks Again Nick. I didn't know about the heated mirrors, and would never have guessed about the windows-closing short-cut via the Re-Circ button! 👍
Haha no worries! 🤓🙏
Every Friday is a learning day. Thank you Nick for another fantastic video and I have learnt something new again.
Thank you! 🤓👍🏼 Glad you enjoyed the video!
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.
Thank you! 🤓👍🏼
Thank you. I fully understand how my climate control is working now. Love your explanations and videos. ❤😊
Wow another amazing video!
Another amazing video from you!! Keep doing that!
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.
Thanks for all the videos Nick, great discovering all these tips for my newly acquired C43 AMG.
Thank you Nick, I have learned so much about my GLE just by watching your videos!
No worries! Ooo very nice! 🤓
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
So helpful Nick as always and v. clearly explained. How would we know about all these features without you! Thanks
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the video! 🤓
These videos are so helpful! Thanks Nick!!
Thank you! 🙏
Been patiently waiting for this… very helpful mate. Very well appreciated 🙏🏾🙌🏾
That rest button function is amazing. I was wondering what the hell that button did. Thank you 🙏
Excellent video, I have had a few Mercedes cars and didn't know most of what you said. So thank you
Such great content Nick. Thank you again!
It's a great video with a lot of information. I was really struggling with setting up the Climate Control.
Brilliant again Nick, thank you.
nice and clear ... superb
Thanks once more for an interesting and useful video Nick.
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.
i think ive watched every video youve made thank you so much for such great videos
Thank you! Glad you’ve been enjoying the videos! 🤓🙏
Great tips Nick! Thank you for sharing!
No worries! Thank you!
You are upping the production quality i see :)
Trying to! Glad you noticed! 🙏
Always trying to improve over the last one
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
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!
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!
Thanks Nick, another very useful video, especially the side mirror demist trick with Rear window switch.
Great content as always, thank you Nick :)
Have a great weekend!
And you! 🤓
Great tip regarding the heated mirrors.
Thank you! 🤓
Godsend. Thank you Nick! 🔥
No worries! 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks, Nick, for another interesting video. I certainly found out a couple of things that I wasn't aware of in my GLC.
Can't wait to get my first Mercedes! Thanks for the video :)
Thanks so much Nick. Amazing video as well with great tips. Thanks mate 😀
Whoop whoop. Thanks Nick.
Great Content, very useful ✅
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!
Thank you!! Waiting for my Merc to arrive and need all the information I can get. It will be safe in my hands I’A
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
Thanks Kingsley! 🤓👍🏼
Really enjoy your tips ! A newbie in the MB!
Can't wait to drive it! All the way from oz
Thanks Sonny! Glad you’re loving the videos! 🤓👍🏼
Thanks for the tips bro.. Mercedes all the way
Thanks karanbeer! 😎
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
Hey Brian, Got this one in my potential future videos list! I hope to cover something like this soon!
👍
Thanks again Nick for the useful video👏some information I didn’t know exist on my Gls 400D😊
Wow that's wonderful 👏❤️
Again very good very informative
Great video Nick very informative
Thank you! 🙏
Thank you for the A/C, because i was always confused when a/c turned on automatically, and i was thinking is only for the cooling.
No worries! Oh no we often refer to A/C as cooling but in fact it removes moisture from the air. In all seasons when it rains, no more misty windows!
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.
Crucial barnet, there, Nick!
Nick, can you set your recycling button to stay on? So if on a long ride, you don’t have to keep turning it on. Love your videos!
Thank you! No sadly not, Mercedes say that it auto re-opens to allow fresh air in as the air quality can deteriorate quite a lot in a few mins.
Good work . Like this one a lot
Thanks Nick. Very useful :-)
Thank you! You've helped me a lot
Ah awesome! 🤓🙏
Thank you so helpful I was confused with how to do the heat! Lll
Outro grande video. Obrigado pela partilha.
Great video well explained thanks
Thank you! 🤓
Cheers Nick .. As per I've learnt more stuff about my car Thanks ;)
Wooo! 🥳
No worries!
Thank you Nick.
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.
Also does the same when you take a call 👀 haha 😜
Yeah the list of commands is endless with the voice assistant! 🤓
Thanks for the tips! 👍🏻
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! 😜
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 👀
Thank you, these videos are great! Any ideas on turning off the seatbelt chimes?
Thank you! No sadly never seen a way to turn them off. It’s a safety thing.
If you clip the belt in though it should stop?
Would you say it's worth keeping the A/C on throughout the year in the UK even if your car is not misting up at the time?
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.
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.
Nice one Nick! How about dashboard lights next?
Hey Loi d, got a few videos in the works at the moment but I think I’ve got that one for the list of potential future videos already 👀👍🏼
@@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!
First to comment ❤️looking forward to another masterclass from Nick about Merc
Haha thanks! 🤓 you were fast! 💨
@@npoleary your channel is my fav Nick always informative
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👍🏼👍🏼😉
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 🤓
i love my mercedes and i love u man you very very good explana thanku very much 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Thank you! 🙏 ☺️
If you don’t have the menu button you can just tap the temperature number on the mbux screen and it’ll display all the climate controls graphically too.
Thought I didn't have heated wing mirrors... Thanks Nick
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.
all these options are standard mercedes, my w204 got these as well.... this week my w206 will be delivered, and it's gonna be exactly the same
THX for your videos. If I understand correctly, there's no reason to turn off the air conditioning at all?
Thank you! Glad you’re enjoying them! Unless the windows are open maybe 🤓
Other than that, A/C units are so efficient these days that the impact is barley anything.
The air inlet has a HEPA filter attached, and it will block out most all outside odors, including cows and opossums:
(Remember to close the roof!!!)
The sealed air cabin, has a "temporary switch" for outside air, keeping 0² levels in the normal range... (Since your vehicle is almost completely air tight from Mercedes-Benz).
Thank you for a helpful video. I have owned my 24 GLS for two weeks and have engaged my AC "rest" button as default. Tell me if you approve of "rest" being ok to be always on or if you have a preferred setup including "auto" for AC
Thank you!
Unless if it’s different elsewhere in other countries, the rest mode is just for heating the car afterward (if the engine is warm).
You can’t turn it on by default it’s just a thing you can turn on per session if needed.
