Back in a Benz! Few ?'s ...

[AuctorEcclesiae]

From what has been a rather lengthy hiatus, I am happy to report that I'm the new owner of an '00 C230 Kompressor. It's in great shape, and had an extended warranty, for which I am grateful ...

Drove it back to WI yesterday. Came out to start it this morning, and the thing wouldn't start. Unbelieveable! After a tow and some diagnostics, the fuel pump relay was found to be faulty, and was replaced. Now all is well.

Just a few initial questions that I couldn't find decisive answers to when searching. Don't have an owner's manual yet:

1. On the passenger seat (not motorized; manual), WHERE is the switch to recline the seatback? I can't seem to find it. I found the roll switch that controls front swivel, and the bar which raises the seat, but can't figure out how to recline the seatback.

2. Winter/Summer switch on the 722.6 - any preferred setting over another that benefits the box, or is it strictly user preference?

3. Passenger headlight comes on when car is parked, and then goes off. I'm assuming this is normal?

I think that's all for now! Boy it sure is nice to have a Merc again after several US disappointments. Looking forward to being a bit more active in my online activity here at the forum as well.

Thanks for the replies.
