Where is the Mercedes-Benz defogging button located?
2 Answers
Mercedes-Benz defogging button is located in the center of the dashboard, with options for both the front windshield and rear windshield. Defogging button symbols: The front windshield defogging button symbol is a fan shape with multiple curves. The rear windshield defogging button icon is a square shape with multiple curves. Front windshield defogging uses the air conditioning system, while rear windshield defogging uses heating wires. Rear windshield defogging function: In some vehicles, activating the rear windshield defogging function will also turn on the mirror heating function. These vehicles don't have a separate mirror heating button. Drivers who want to use mirror heating can simply press the rear windshield defogging button.
When I drove a Mercedes, dealing with fogged-up windows was my biggest headache until I figured out the trick. The front defroster button is located on the far left of the AC panel—it's a physical button with a fan-shaped icon and three upward arrows. Press it, and the blower immediately directs strong airflow to the windshield. The rear window defroster is on the right side of the panel, marked by a rectangular icon with wavy lines. On rainy days, remember to turn on the AC switch for effective dehumidification; otherwise, the fog will only get worse. The layout of Mercedes' AC panels is quite consistent—on the C-Class and E-Class I've driven, the controls are all located in the row of buttons to the right of the steering wheel. Don't worry about pressing the wrong button; that fan-shaped defroster key is the most prominent physical button there.
