What are the function key descriptions for the Mercedes-Benz GLC260?
2 Answers
The Mercedes-Benz GLC260 center console includes: 1. Electronic Stability Program (ESP): Effectively prevents loss of control such as skidding or fishtailing. It is generally not recommended for the driver to manually turn it off. 2. Parking Radar/Image: This button activates the panoramic camera and radar functions, providing audible alerts and visual feedback to help the driver detect surrounding obstacles. 3. Blind Spot Warning System (BSW): If another vehicle is detected in the blind spot on the rear side, the indicator light on the side mirror will flash. If the driver ignores the warning and proceeds to change lanes, the system will sound an alarm. 4. Forward Collision Mitigation System (FCM): When the vehicle gets too close to the car ahead, the system will sound an alert. If the driver continues to drive, the system will automatically apply the brakes to stop the vehicle. 5. Auto Hold: At stops such as traffic lights, releasing the brake pedal will engage the auto hold function, locking the wheels and relieving the driver's foot fatigue. Pressing the accelerator again will allow the vehicle to move forward. 6. Auto Start-Stop: When activated, the engine will temporarily shut off. Releasing the brake pedal will restart the engine and propel the vehicle forward. 7. Recirculation/Fresh Air Mode: Recirculation mode heats or cools the air inside the car before recirculating it, while fresh air mode brings in outside air. Use recirculation mode in heavy traffic, tunnels, or when outside air quality is poor. On highways, periodically switch to fresh air mode, and avoid using recirculation for more than an hour. 8. Climate Zone Sync: When activated, adjusting the temperature on the driver's side will synchronize the other climate zones. When turned off, each zone can be set individually to meet the needs of passengers in different seats.
The function buttons of the Mercedes-Benz GLC260 are distributed in various places, mainly on the steering wheel and the center console. On the left side of the steering wheel, there are cruise control buttons—pressing the SET button sets the speed, which is very convenient for highway driving. On the right side are multimedia buttons: the plus and minus signs adjust the volume, and there’s also a phone icon button for answering or making Bluetooth calls. On the center console, the air conditioning section is straightforward: turn the knob to adjust the temperature, press the fan speed button a few times to switch between hot and cold air, and the Auto button activates the automatic climate control with one press, making it hassle-free. The seat heating button keeps you warm in winter, and the windshield wiper lever is located below the left side of the steering wheel—just flick it to clear the glass. Once you get familiar with these buttons, they make driving much smoother, so you don’t have to worry about getting distracted or pressing the wrong thing while driving. In short, practice makes perfect, but safety always comes first!
