4 weeks of not using my car - advice needed

I’m going on holidays for 4 weeks so won’t be driving my W204 C63. The battery is in good condition. Will it start when I get back or should I get someone to start it periodically while I’m away?

cars with keyless go can run into low battery issues if left without running or trickle charger for longer periods of time.

if you click the lock button 3 times on the key fob, it will disable transmission of the key fob to the vehicle which is an active transmission. that can help.

if your vehicle does not have keyless go and you've not run into battery drain issues before, you should be fine for 4 weeks.

Mine is like this in the winter months and no I don’t worry about it and just connect up the battery up every few months with no starting until the weather gets good again.
