Have you just bought your Mercedes-Benz?
Then you may have already connected your phone via Bluetooth or maybe
you're using Apple CarClay and then maybe you're playing music off your phone and
gone for the next track button and then realised where is the next track button?
Hey guys Nick O'Leary here and yes after popular request from you guys in the comments section.
A few of you have asked this question before asking where the next track button is....now
the thing is with Mercedes-Benz because these new dashboards are
coming out all digital and you can customise each element on the screen.
Of course you'll need a touchpad or controller to use all those elements
so one of these things is of course the next track button that a lot of people ask
for so I've actually got a couple of ways that you can use the next track button.
And these involve the centre of the console on the car and then also on the steering wheel as well.
Now as always this does vary from model to model on Mercedes so have a look at your centre console
if you have this setup kind of with a big 'ON' button in the middle you actually have a previous
track and next track button on either side of it so it's quite easy to press those however....
If you have a wheel with a touchpad in the middle normally what you do is press the media button
and then swipe left or right it will spin left or right depending on or not if you have the wheel.
However this might not be completely convenient because while you're doing
that and getting the track right, you've come off the sat nav screen and then
potentially just missed your turn so Mercedes-Benz have thought of this.
There is a next track and previous track button
built into the touchpad and if you look really closely in between the back and
home button or the back and the star (depending on your model of Mercedes.
Have a look in the middle and there's a previous track and next track button built in right there.
And the way this works is quite simple say you've got the sat nav on the screen at the
moment if you press this button in it will bring up a sub menu from the bottom and from
here you can swipe left or right to go through the track without losing the contents of the screen.
Now some touch pads can also do this as well so you just have to try this.
This one does work in all A-Class's so this is why I'm sat in at the moment but
just double check with your Mercedes depending on if they can do this.
With the touchpad you can literally just swipe at the very very top so
literally just swipe left or right and it will go through the previous
track or next track without even touching anything else so the menu is even smaller.
So that is kind of a replacement for the next track or previous track.
Now the other way is of course by using the voice assistant.
Now most cars do have voice assistants,
so depending again on your model of Mercedes you'll either need to have COMAND or MBUX so
sadly this won't work with any systems that have Garmin Map Pilot but most of
those do have that next track and previous track that I showed on the car earlier.
So if you have COMAND, literally just press the voice button on the steering wheel and
then just literally say 'Next track' or 'Previous track' but with MBUX you can do the same thing
but then you don't even need to press that button you could just say 'Hey Mercedes!'.
Car: How can I help?
'Next track'
And then it'll change to the next track.
So all of that's well and good but there is a third way as well
and that does involve actually using it on the steering wheel.
So most people have that set up there where you have your miles an hour on the left big
digital speed in the middle and then the revs on the right hand side but
of course on some models of Mercedes you can change all those contents.
But on virtually every Mercedes I've ever seen you can always put the Media or Radio
in the middle so you can put the media like that and then quite simply all you
do is just swipe up or down on this touchpad to go forward a track or back a track like that.
Now of course obviously just go careful because when you're turning the steering wheel around
a roundabout or something your finger might accidentally touch that and then of course you'll
go previous track or next track or the track you're listening to will then start again so...
But that's one way of doing it of course the other ways I actually prefer because you can
click the touchpad in and just swipe it left or right like that very very easy!
But you can do it on here as well or you can use the voice
assistant so there's three ways of a next track in a Mercedes-Benz!
And there we go then guys that concludes this week's video on
where is the next track button in a Mercedes-Benz?
Now this video has been made because of you guys because
so many of you have asked about it I thought I'd make a video so use
that comment's section down below if you have any suggestions let me know!
Now as always huge shout out to these guys Sandown Mercedes-Benz as they help provide
access to all these awesome cars you see in the videos so huge huge shout out to
them but guys thank you so much for watching until next week see you then!
