Unused Accessories

[Harrythedog]

Just realised the other day that I've never actually used the headlight washers on my W211 and I was wondering if anybody else has a gizzmo/extra that they never use?

Do the headlight washers not operate automatically??

I've never used speed limiter on my Vito (although I use cruise control all the time), and have turned off the various lighting functions (locator, and external light delay) via the cluster.

Hazard lights....

I don't know Bill, I've never used them. I'll have to check the manual

Indicators, rear-view or wing mirrors.

One reason you don't use your wing mirrors maybe because you don't have any

That's just being pedantic.

speed limiter
headlight washers
rear headrests (always dropped down)
rear heated seats (because of 2 childseats)
front seat ventilation



everything else used fairly often

No, unlike our SL's where they fire with the main screen ones when the lights are on, there is a separate button for it on the 211...had to get used to that!

I never switch off the traction control and I do not use the facility to have the c/c continue, or is that just heat, for one half of one hour after parking. All the other things that I never use could well because I have forgotten they exist or am blissfully unaware that they ever existed.
Obviously not missing such functions.
