Entering a car wash
Safety note
NOTE
Selector lever position P is automatically en‐
gaged when standby state is switched off.
There is a risk of material damage. Do not
switch off standby state in car washes.
General
The vehicle must be able to roll freely while in
the car wash.
Some car washes require you to leave the vehi‐
cle. It is not possible to lock the vehicle from the
outside in selector lever position N. If an attempt
is made to lock the vehicle, a signal sounds.
For further information:
For rolling or pushing the vehicle, see page 141.
Exiting from a car wash
Make sure that the vehicle key is in the vehicle.
Switch on drive-ready state.
For further information:
Drive-ready state, see page 53.
Headlights
Do not rub wet headlights dry and do not use
abrasive or corrosive cleaning agents.
Soak impurities, for example insect residues, with
shampoo and wash off with water.
Remove ice with a de-icer spray; do not use an
ice scraper.
After vehicle wash
After vehicle wash, briefly apply the brakes to dry
them, otherwise braking effect may be tempora‐
rily reduced. The heat generated by braking dries
the brake discs and brake pads and protects
them against corrosion.
Completely remove residues on the windscreens
to avoid affecting visibility due to smearing and to
reduce wiping noise and wiper blade wear.
