I've been driving a Mercedes for a while, and that panic button on the key is actually an emergency alarm feature. Once in an underground garage when a suspicious person approached, I quickly held it down for two seconds—the lights flashed wildly and an extremely piercing alarm went off, making the guy run away immediately. It's also super handy for finding your car in parking lots; just press it and your car will flash its lights and honk to help you locate it. But be careful not to keep the key in the same pocket as your phone. I accidentally pressed the button once, and my car suddenly started blaring in the middle of the night, with all the neighbors peeking out their windows—so embarrassing! Thankfully, pressing the unlock button stops the alarm right away.
