Default SLK280 questions

Had my 280 for a cuple of weeks now and i cant seem to find out some things

I have 17" wheels which are 225/45 front and 245/40 rear, the label in the petrol filler cap gives loads of differant info and also says the size is 18" so i'm not sure what tire pressures should be ?

Also i seem to have lost lots of settings on my command menus ? used to have more option on instrument cluster etc but thay seem to have disappeared, tried the reset thing but no better ? am i missing something ?

The offside wing mirror dropping when you select reserve option is one of the ones that has disappeared, the dealer reckons it only comes with electric seats ?

Cheers

The 17" tire pressure guide is on the driver's door jam (at least in the USA it is) and the dipping mirror does only come with electric/memory seats (in USA anyway)
