Keyless go start/stop button illumination

Hi,

I've just noticed that the start/stop button on our new C205 coupe that has keyless go doesn't illuminate like the other controls, is this as designed or should it illuminate?

TIA.

Funny, after 4 months of ownership, I just now noted that same lack of illumination. I guess MB didn't think of everything, eh?

I must have tempted fate, as our comand screen has now gone blank and only displays when you switch the 360 camera on, time for the first visit to the dealers for a diagnostic.

No, its just a cover that can be popped off should the battery in your key die.

My '14 ML has a tiny light tucked into the dash that shines onto the start/stop button.
