W210 dashboard buttons - what do they do?

[welland99]

I have been looking for a W210 estate and I have noticed that these cars can have up to 6 buttons / switches on the panel which contains the hazard flasher switch (3 on either side), but sometimes as few as 2 or 3.

So far I haven't been able to figure out what they all do - can anybody tell me?
I think the outer two are for front seat heaters.
One of the others is for a rear wash / wiper.
Another is for front headlamp washers.
One seems to be something to do with towing ( I mean being towed).
Am I right so far?

What's the last one for?

The one with the towing symble is for the alarm and the onther one is for locking the car from the inside . Some are options , like the heated seats , alarm and head light wash , the rear wiper / head rest on saloon , and locking button are standard

Just underneath this panel are the air con controls. On a car with standard AC, there are 3 buttons in the middle in between the dials.
One is for the Econ (to switch AC on and off),
One looks like it is for the rear window demister (is this right?)
What is the other one?

Oh, it must be the recirculate button, mustn't it?

I posted similiar recently for the buttons around the gearlever std seems to be top left traction then 2 windows the boot release other side 2 windows, options either side of the elec mirror controls seem to be parktronic,rear blind, folding mirrors and top right the adjustable susp which is very rare

Even rarer is the orthopedic seats with little leds either side of the heated seat buttons, well thats what i think they are

Heated seats well worth having
