Trading In My 13 Wagon - How Do I Delete Contacts & Call History
I am trading in this wagon for a ‘17 E400 and tried to follow the prompts on my ‘13 to delete all my stored contacts but after I pressed “yes” to confirm nothing happened. I am trying to do this now as well as delete call history while it is top of mind before I turn in the car but nothing I tried seemed to work. Anyone know how to do this? Thanks.

Thank you but I was never able to get it to work with our garage door opener! I am optimistic that I can get my new wagon to sync so I can stop using the manual opener but appreciate the reminder.

As a side note, if your garage door opener support things like wifi or MyQ, you'll
to enable it to receive signals from older style openers. It worked great with my '11. Even new cars are using the old signal, from what I can tell.
