New E, Questions

I pulled the trigger on a 2017 E300. White with black/brown interior. P3 with dual panels. The tech is pretty amazing, way better than my S. Anyway, I have a few questions:

I don't see traffic camera app anywhere. I could see actually images on highway traffic from MBApps on my S class.

Is there a favorites button? I had one in my S

How do you guys turn on the cameras when you are pulling into a parking space. I had a button in my S, but when I push the cam button in the E it shows the parktronic display but doesn't go to straight to cameras.

I'm very impressed with the engine so far. It's a lot quicker that I thought it would be. Thanks in advance!

Attached is very good guide about E-class.Also, you can download the owner manual from MBUSA.
My E-class doesn't have traffic camera or a physical fav button.
To see around the car you need to use the Parking Pilot.

There is in fact a favorites button but it's a bit hidden. When you press the home button for the head unit on either the right touch control or on the touch pad, the Home screen appears. From here, swipe downwards to reveal the favorites section. You'll see a star where this menu begins. Favorites can be accessed and changed/added/deleted from here. Once you do it a few times, it's very intuitive (lol, like most things

My E class has traffic camera display in the Apps section. Much improved over my 15 S class.

soon to be E300
If you hit the parking pilot button and scroll down it'll have all 5 camera modes. Haven't found any way to get it to automatically show a different camera type. The actual parking pilot seems worthless as it never finds a spot for me, and if it does, it barely works and takes forever.
