changing Saved radio station on steering wheel

Hi there,
i have a mercedes E320 2003 and the problem is i am not able to change radio stations(the ones saved on memory) from my steering wheel buttons, it only searchs manually once i click the next button from my steering wheel,but i wanted it to switch between the channels saved on memory.
is there any way to make this?maybe from the menu?
i appreciate your help.
thanks

Can't do it on a 211 untill Model Year 2007. Your car will only scroll to next available receiveable frequency.

Mark, if you make statements like that you must clarify that it isn't available to everybody at a moments notice.

To the best of my understanding 03 through 06, "MBUSA dealers" can add the choice to switch between preset (saved) and frequency (next station) to the MFD through SDS however, even when doing so the preset choice continues to scan frequency.

Mark, you keep stating those kind of answers all the time without regard to the asking member's locations and the associated dealerships capability. Just because of your location, your access and associated costs you expect everybody else to enjoy the same privilege. You know very well those inherent limitations of your statements in that regard.

It is highly doubtful that your dealer will be able to perform this to your wishes. You yourself would not be able to. Please reread konigstiger's post above.
