2008 SL 550 passenger door lock button ??

Is there a door lock button this is my first Mercedes and all my other cars had a door lock/unlock button. When I’m sitting in the car and the passenger side door is locked I have to use the key fob or reach over to unlock the door. There’s got to be an easier way, it’s a little embarrassing.



Haven’t had time for new pictures

Also, how have you got your locking set up? you can adjust it so that when you press the keyfob unlock, it will only unlock drivers door for security measures. I prefer it that both doors unlock so have set my key fob up this way.
