3 buttons under the rearview mirror

I did not see any article in the manual about these 3 rearview mirror buttons(left bottom). Anyone knows?

Thank you-

it may be in a separate booklet. much smaller, wire bound and contains
how-to-operate for many accessories. for my 99 E320 it was amongst
the leather pouch which includes half dozen manuals.

they are used to open the garage door. There are 3 of them so you can program up to 3 different garage doors.

- Page 275 of the operator's manual for c-class sedan (2005)

I have all Homelink modules for my lights, and I have a control pad inside to control everything as well. I love hitting the mirror button and having all the lights come on. Looks like X10 is similar to what I have.

Lutron makes some kick *** products. I have thought about redoing wall switches and such with their products and with all the remotes that can be programmed it is even cooler. The new Harmony can control everything.

Might be a "rolling code" issue with the opener.
