C350e anyone considering one?

[wivenhoe]

Thanks for that, most interesting.
I was aware of the system but it had not registered that I could utilise the 350e screen. Would the warning alarms sound via the cars speakers or through a device that I have to connect up in the way of the Snooper.

No other device - the cameras go in as POI's and you set 'sound audio on' for them. I have the sound set for the permanent cameras but not the mobiles as there are far too many mobile locations.

The 'alarm' is a beep through the sound system - it doesn't provide great advance notice but enough, bearing in mind that you have the icon on the large screen. You just have to ensure you download the correct version of PocketGPS specifically for Comand and keep the SD card inserted.

Thank you so much. I will visit the site and take it up. Must be worth a try.
I have been able to "Define" my car on Mercedes Me today. Tried it last week but it wouldn't connect. Spoke to Mercedes and they told me it was because the car hadn't left the factory. Tried today and all is well, all signed up and viewing the car's manual etc

You can download a PDF of the User Manual book - its for the US of A but 99% of it is applicable - it doesn't cover the Hybrid operation - I never found a UK copy on the web, only the on-line version which is a little difficult to navigate and is not a PDF you can print or view off-line. I found it much easier to read the PDF.

You also may find the Comand manual of interest - again for our American cousins but 99% the same

Nope, no temp. And you are right, the screen is different which is strange because mine is a 2015 but my mates 2016 300h has the same screen as mine too!

Mine is Brilliant Blue, Grey Leather, Premium Plus with ILS and 18 inch wheels. It also has privacy glass and fine line dark brown wood.

I was able to download an App today via Mercedes Me which is a great resource for manuals, including 350e. 6
I discovered this item in relation to the 350e and temperature.

I have just searched the Google Play Store and discovered the most amazing Apps covering the C Class , the Model and manual are available for download. I imagine that they are also available on the Apple site.
They are truly amazing , 3 D rendition, a paper target has to be printed, haven't got round to doing that yet, films on all topics. I viewed a film for the C-Class on our smart TV. My wife was blown away by the content and quality. Really if you can download it do it, it is brilliant. Just search Mercedes and two Apps immediately come into view. DO IT !

When did you order yours 350?

When did you order yours 350?

@Rapidfire
If you are asking me the answer is April of this year

 

[Rapidfire]

Ordered mine June 4 still not been given a date for delivery

 

[Rapidfire]

Thinking I may cancel, the info coming from MB and their dealers Is appalling. Surely they must know how many orders they have and how many they can manufacture to give approx delivery times, it's the not knowing rather than the delivery times.

@Rapidfire Did you order your car directly with a Mercedes dealership or through a third party such as a fleet management company?

If you download the MB Guides App you will have a complete handbook /manual available.
Brilliant illustrations and explanations of all aspects of the 350e such as this:
