How to Open the Mercedes-Benz Front Passenger Storage Compartment?
2 Answers
Before disassembling the front passenger storage compartment, ensure the vehicle is turned off and parked in a safe area. The storage compartment is located below the front of the passenger seat, and you need to open the passenger door. Open the storage compartment by pulling the switch handle, allowing the compartment to open to its maximum extent. Pay attention to the position of the latch on the side of the compartment. After opening the storage compartment, release it by pulling out the rotating latch at the lower right corner. Finally, you will see the storage compartment in its disassembled state. Be sure to operate with caution for safety.
I've been driving a Mercedes for several years, and opening the glove compartment is quite simple: in most models, there's a small handle or button near the dashboard on the passenger side. Just give it a gentle pull or press, but make sure the car is unlocked—like when the key is inside or the ignition is on. If it doesn't budge, don't force it; check if something's blocking it or if the electronic lock is delayed. Mercedes designs are safe and user-friendly, so if it's stuck, try waiting a few seconds or gently wiggling the handle. I also recommend not overloading it with heavy items to avoid deformation affecting the mechanism, and regularly clean and lubricate it to prevent dust buildup from jamming the system. This ensures smooth and hassle-free daily operation, and even beginners can easily get the hang of it.
