Hi guys
Can any of you crossfire experts tell me what the little red button, just above the rear view mirror is for. Looked in the hand book but there is no reference to it.

Post this in the UK and Europe section of the forum, I believe its only on the european models. Not sure what its for though. Pat

 

Don't Press The Red Button!!! LOL

Pictures would help out a ton but I'm speculating that if it has a little door that flips down that covers the red button, it's an SOS button carried over from the SLKs. Whether or not it's connected to anything is another story.

 

"Kid, don't EVER touch the red button." - Agent "K", Independance Day.

I'd leave it alone.

"I hate warriors, too narrow-minded. I'll tell you what I do like though: a killer, a dyed-in-the-wool killer. Cold blooded, clean, methodical and thorough. Now a real killer, when he picked up the ZF-1, would've immediately asked about the little red button on the bottom of the gun." Zorg from The Fifth Element just before the Mangalore presses the red button and there is a tremendous explosion.

 

What "motion detectors" are they referring to?

Is that ALSO something specific to the UK?

 

Yes, it is a UK specific thing.

 

Well a real big thanks for all the replys, you American guys have such a great sense of humour lol.
The motion sensor disable makes sence as the motion detectors are either side of the little red button.
Was kinda hoping it was Knight Rider switch to turn on KIT

Can you please take a picture of this button and the sensors? Inquiring minds would like to know what they look like.

Thanks in advance.

 

Sure thing Rcompart, to dark now but will take a photo tomorrow and post it.

Blimey, guess I was in the wrong country for this one --

 

Actually from "Men in Black" !

 

Ahhh, The Fifth Element - an EXCELLENT movie & of course, then there's Milla Jovovich, a whole 'nother topic!

 

I plead not guilty here, got a cold, am on two kinds of meds for it and my brain is about as cloudy as the weather outside.

 

Pizza,
Actually not specific to U.K.
I have two alarms on my coupe. The first which is on my 300c, also, is just not as sensitive as it is on the 300. The reason is that the much shorter wheel base diminishes movement more than a long wheelbase like the 300.

Now the second alarm was installed to give me more sensitivity. It is marketed toward convertibles so that if anyone approaches the car it will warm them away. One of those.........if you can see it ........it can see you.
It has the voice options to tell you to "step away" and such but they recommend not using it as it attracts kids and others. Much better to send out sudden horrible sounds.
Since mine is a coupe, it still can see you, (your motion) through the windows.
So, it is like a super sensitive system since you don't even have to touch the car to set it off.
Of course I have to try to park where it is not possible to park next to me, but of course someone is always going to approach this car. It does warn in stages so that someone has options, like leave. Occasionally, I forget and get too close before hitting the fob.
I feel more secure with both types and of course would have to have it with a convertible, not wanting to up the top at every stop.

AH shucks i was reading from the top and noticed that error and was going to type it but you caught it a day before i got to this thread!

 

"Don't Press The Red Button!!! LOL"

Ejector seat? Bummer if you have a hardtop/coupe.
