Key dependent feature
it looks like I dont have this feature on my '04 E500 (keyless go).
under setting -> convenience -> I could find only activate easy-entry/exit feature and set parking position for exterior rear view mirror. there is no "set smartkey-dependency" as indicated in the operator's manual.
I wonder if anyone else has this problem.

I feel a bit 'groggy' this morning, but if I understand your question correctly then the Easy-Entry\Exit feature is indeed the key dependancy option. It is just a case of setting the memory by pressing 'm' on the door panel and the relevant number in accordance with your instruction manual??? I apologise if I have misunderstood the question. Myself and others have found this feature to be 'less than perfect' and it has severe bouts of amnesia!!!
I think 'Steve' is actually talking about Keyless Go, which is a completely different option, but again this could be a misunderstanding on my part??
The weather this morning is mild and overcast at Torquay (by the sea)
Morning everyone,
John

The only reason I brought up "keyless go" is because of his first sentence:
“Originally Posted by MOZART

I think that he is realizing that he doe snot have Keyless Go. But who knows, this question could be interpreted in a few different ways. On the other side of things, I find the Easy-Entry\Exit feature quite nice. I am not fat, but I am only 5'8", so it only tilts up the steering wheel. I understand that it only moves that seat if you sit past a particular point. I like being able to move my legs freely right under the steering wheel when I am getting out. So far, it has worked flawlessly.
My 300 E had a wagon wheel for a steering wheel. I liked it, but I did sometimes hit it when I was getting in and out. It was not a big deal, but this little detail of the W211 is one of the things that I like a lot about it.

sorry guys for the confusion. key-dependent feature means that the car recognizes each one of the keys you have(yours and your wife's). so when you unlock the car with your key the seat and steering wheel and probably the audio system will go back to where you left it when you left the car. giving that someone else was driving the car using the other key.

Yamaha's are motor-cycles,
Harley's are cars that have had two wheels forcibly extracted!!!
