Massage Seats WITHOUT heat!
I can’t believe there isn’t an option to turn off the seat heating when choosing (most) of the various massage options!
Looked everywhere. Note: turning off “intense” doesn’t turn off heat. I end up turning on seat ventilation but can still feel the heat.
Seems like a total oversite or MB loves heated seats!

Am I missing something?

I would like to know that too. Also on a side note, I see a lot of used s580 2021 year models being sold by dealers at 20 or 30 thousand premium, when you can get a new one at msrp, what gives?

LMAO!
No not stereotyping Sorry if it came across that way!

I just meant maybe you live somewhere really warm and didn't want the hot massage

I only meant to make a joke not offense

-The seat heats up without the red lights turning on, in the settings on the door.
-“Hey Mercedes” doesn’t turn it off.

Really odd. Not a solution but does seat heating remain on if you operate the control buttons on the door to turn heating on and off (or is it off-on-off)? No change on the red indicator lights?

Haven't seen the WIS function description but surely there must be some sort of an ambient temperature limit or cabin temperature limit for seat heating activated from a massage program? At times even in Germany too hot for seat heating.

Tried cycling the seat heating button with no luck.
The heat is not as hot as having the seat at level 3 but still noticeable.
