Where is Fan Speed Setting Number 4?
Hi- can you guys play with your car's fan speed manual setting and report back?
Normally I leave mine on Auto and corresponding temperature.
I noticed I don't have a the fan speed setting numerical 4 in the display screen.
Yes, when I flip the tap up and down, the Indicator would show 5 levels of hash marks, with 1 (lowest) with one horizontal hash, then 2 hashes, 3 hashes, 4 and then 5 for max.
However the digital display in the upper display screen shows 1, 2, 3, then 5.
The sequence goes like this since there are 5 positions. If you're tabbing up, it goes, 1,1,2,3,5 on the screen. If you're tabbing down, it goes 5,3,3,2,1 on the screen.
What happened to my 4? did me fan regular lose a speed setting in the fan modulator?
Thanks

Mystery solved.
When car is on aux battery mode/electric mode, the fan seems to only operation in 3 speed. Once Engine is kicked on, all 5 speeds show up.

The Mercedes sold in mainland China only has a one speed fan, speed # 8.
Come to think of it, why do Mercedes have a 7 speed transmission and a 9 speed transmission but not a 8 speed? Is the number 8 bad luck in Germany?
