How to Use the "Rest" Button on a Mercedes Vehicle

Model: Mercedes Mercedes Various
Part: Dashboard

Video tutorial

In this video, you will see a feature present on some Mercedes vehicles. The "Rest" button is used to keep the vehicle warm for up to 30 minutes without keeping the engine running.

Instead, it uses only the residual heat from the engine, without draining the battery for this use. This feature is particularly useful in winter when you need to wait for someone in the car for a while; this way, you can avoid keeping the engine running without the fear of freezing.

This feature lasts a maximum of 30 minutes, after which it automatically shuts off, as the engine cools down after this period.

Very useful.
