Convenience close from inside?

Hey all, still getting used to all the gizmos in my E350. I just learned the summer open feature with the key fob which is crucial here in Atlanta. However, would be awesome to close them all once the AC is blasting cold. Anyway to do this from the inside with a button press or combo?

IIRC there use to be some MB cars with a feature where you hold in the air recirculate bottom on the climate control and it would close them all. But that doesn't work on my W212.

Fortunately they are all auto close switches so you just have to hit up to 5 switches. Just work on your finger speed.

I think that 'tunnel' mode feature is no longer on the US spec cars from what I just read. Seems cool though for closing and apparently pressing it again will open to the windows to the last position.

Yeah, no work around. You need to close each one manually.
