Car Button

Dear GLA enthusiasts,

I was just wondering if you could help me out with one thing: finding out what this button is for (the one shown by the red arrow)?



Many thanks in advance

I didn't know what the green-lighted button was, which turns off the auto start/stop, until I read the Owner's Manual.

So, ....

Ahhh ... ok, you're doing research. When in Offroad mode and you further use that display button you get this on-screen info:

Drive program selected

Accelerator pedal position shown in %

Brake pedal position shown in %

DSR status indicator

Angle of inclination

Steering angle

Uphill or downhill gradient as a percentage

Note:
The accelerator and brake pedal position is only
available on certain Mercedes-AMG vehicles.
The DSR status indicator as well as the uphill or
downhill gradient as a percentage are not available
on Mercedes-AMG vehicles
