Default 2 questions (PLEASE HELP!)

Hi,
I just got a 1999 E320 wagon 4matic (with no manual) and I have 2 questions...

question 1: near the shifter there is a button marked with a "W" and "S". What are these buttons for? I'm assuming they have something to do with the suspension. Winter/summer? Am I close?

question 2: Does anyone know how to set up the garge door opener on the rear view mirror??

W stands for winter which is 2nd gear start for slippery roads basically, and S is for summer or standard, which is just starting off in 1st gear.

If you check your owners manual its states that S = Sport Mode for everyday driving. W = Weather driving. Its also Starts out in 2nd gear to help in slippery conditions. Also If you have ESP turn that off and have the vehicle in W for snow to start off. Once you get going switch the ESP back on.

Start by getting a manual. Go to www.mbusa.com and register. After registration go to the owners section and download a manual. You can also buy one from the dealer or by calling 1 800 FOR MERCEDES.
