Netherlands Setting?
Hey guys I made an appointment with my local benz dealer and I asked them to put the netherlands setting on for the alarm chirp and the service guy told me that with this setting everything would read out in dutch and not english I told him that I thought he was wrong, but just wanted to ask you guys who have this.

Is this something that I can request to have done prior to taking delivery of my new car that is on a boat at the moment??? If so, what other settings would you suggest having changed??? This is my first Mercedes so I have no clue what is available. Does the "Netherlands" setting only change the alarm chirp, or does it do something else as well???

My dealer told me they never heard of it and have no idea how to change it and if they were able to change it it would void my factory warranty. That wasn't the response I was looking for LOL

I took my C55 in for the B service yesterday. When the car was returned, it has a very quiet chirp or beep, twice when I lock the car, and once when I unlock. I did not ask for this, and don't know if I like it or not. I know that they worked on the panic alarm and changed something because they said it was not loud enough. Anyway, do the cars that have the netherlands chirp make a loud sound? Mine can only be heard about 25 feet away.

Check to make sure your panic button works. If they changed the valet setting you could lose your panic button (according to the manual). The Netherland allows the beep to be audible without losing the panic function.
