HU "No Key" power

Whats up with that?

Page 160 of the FM states you can turn on the HU without a key and that it will turn of after 30 sec.

Mine doesn't do that. First of all I have to push and not turn. Then it will not go out after 30 sec. It stays playing for however long I let it; 3, 4, 5, etc minutes. It also won't shut off if I open the door.

Is there a rev to the manual that I need? Is this one of MBs running design changes?

Somebody please try theirs and let me know.

Thanx

I thought the manual said it would play for 60 minutes.

I love the feature, use it when I'm cleaning the car...the only thing I don't like is that when you turn it off, next time you start the car the radio is off...oh well, still love the feature.

On Page 176 of the Operator's Manual it says the radio will switch itself off after half an hour.

I recall the manual is misprinted in this regard. Indeed, you push the button in (not turn it). The manual also says the radio will play for 30 minutes (not 30 secs) which you misread (not a misprint... HeHeHe ). I like the feature, too.
