drive for a few minutes after cleaning. By
heating up the brakes, the brake discs and
pads dry. The vehicle can then be parked for a
long period of time.
Regular care of your vehicle is a condition for
retaining the quality in the long term.
Use care products and cleaning agents recom-
mended and approved by Mercedes-Benz. Washing the vehicle and cleaning the
paintwork
Automatic car wash G
WARNING
Braking efficiency is reduced after washing
the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
After the vehicle has been washed, brake
carefully while paying attention to the traffic
conditions until full braking power is restored.
! When Active Brake Assist, Active Distance
Assist DISTRONIC or the HOLD function is
activated, the vehicle brakes automatically in
certain situations.
To avoid damage to the vehicle, deactivate
these systems in the following or similar sit-
uations:
R when towing the vehicle
R in the car wash
! Preferably use automatic car washes with
adjustable high-pressure pre-cleaning. This
corresponds with the specification for the
Cabriolet program. In car washes that use
high water pressures, there is a risk that a
small amount of water may leak into the vehi- cle.
! Make sure that the vehicle is not subse-
quently treated with hot wax.
! Never clean your vehicle in a Touchless
Automatic Car Wash as these use special
cleaning agents. These cleaning agents can
damage the paintwork or plastic parts.
If you have your vehicle cleaned in a high-
pressure automatic car wash, small amounts of water may enter the vehicle. !
If the SmartKey is within the rear detection
range of KEYLESS-GO, the following situa-
tions, for example, could lead to the uninten-
tional opening of the trunk lid:
R when using an automatic car wash
R when using a power washer
Make sure that the SmartKey is at least 10 ft
(3 m) away from the vehicle.
! Make sure that:
R the side windows are fully closed
R the blower of the ventilation/heating sys-
tem is switched off
R the windshield wiper switch is at position
003F
R the rear-view camera is deactivated
The vehicle may otherwise be damaged.
! When washing your vehicle in a tow-through
car wash, use the SmartKey instead of the
Start/Stop button.
Start the engine using the SmartKey. Set the
transmission to 005Cwith the E-SELECT selec-
tor lever. Switch the engine off again with the SmartKey by turning the SmartKey to position
0048. Make sure that you then leave the Smart-
Key in position 0048. You may otherwise dam-
age the vehicle, the transmission or the car
wash.
Check the transmission position in the instru-
ment cluster.
! Before switching off the engine, use the
E‑SELECT lever to shift the transmission to
005C. If you open the driver's or front-passenger
door, the transmission remains in this posi-
tion for up to 30 minutes if the key is in the
ignition, even if the engine is switched off. If
you do not shift the transmission to 005Cusing
the E‑SELECT lever beforehand, it shifts auto-
matically to parking position 005Dand locks the
wheels if the driver's or front-passenger door
is opened when the engine is switched off.
This may damage the vehicle, the transmis-
sion or the car wash.
You can wash the vehicle in an automatic car
wash from the very start.
If the vehicle is very dirty, pre-wash it before
cleaning it in an automatic car wash.
After using an automatic car wash, wipe off wax from the windshield and the wiper blades. This
will prevent smears and reduce wiping noises
caused by residue on the windshield. 242

unable to provide sufficient breakdown assis- tance, as it is unable to seal the tire properly:
R there are cuts or punctures in the tire larger
than those mentioned above.
R the wheel rim is damaged.
R you have driven at very low tire pressures or
on a flat tire.
There is a risk of an accident.
Do not drive the vehicle. Contact a qualified
specialist workshop. G
WARNING
The tire sealant is harmful and causes irrita-
tion. It must not come into contact with your
skin, eyes or clothing or be swallowed. Do not inhale TIREFIT fumes. Keep tire sealant away
from children. There is a risk of injury.
If you come into contact with the tire sealant,
observe the following:
