2017 Mercedes Benz S63 AMG Cabriolet
Cup holder - problem or user error?

Hi AMG owners.

I am the proud new owner of a 2017 S63 AMG Cabriolet, and have a pretty silly problem on the drive back home (about 800 miles). The cup holder in the front is inaccessible as the panel above the cup holders tilts up about 45 degrees but no further. I am not sure if I am doing something wrong or if this is a real issue, and I would really hate to ask the dealer if it is user error. Has anyone else seen this issue? Feedback or help greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Thanks very much! When I get back to HQ I will do exactly that. It actually has small arms that appear to be stopping it at the 45 mark so I thought I might be missing a button somewhere. Thank you again!
