To remove a broken-down vehicle
from a dangerous area, it can be
pushed for a short distance.
Roll or push, see page 145, the
vehicle.
Only have the vehicle transported
on a truck bed.
Switch on the hazard warning
lights, depending on local regula-
tions.
If the electrical system of the vehi-
cle being towed has failed, the vehi-
cle must be made identifiable to
other road users, for instance by
placing a sign or the warning trian-
gle in the rear window.The towing eyes of both vehicles
should be on the same side.
If it is impossible to avoid attaching
the tow bar at an angle, note the
following:
Tow bar clearance may be lim-
ited when cornering.
The tow bar will generate lateral
forces if it is attached at an
angle.
Ensure that the towing rope is taut
when the towing vehicle drives off.
Use nylon ropes or straps, which
will enable the vehicle to be towed
without jerking. Pushing the vehicle

Safety notes
WARNING
If the gross vehicle weight of the tow-
ing vehicle is less than that of the
vehicle to be towed, the towing eye
can be pulled off, or the vehicle may
no longer be controllable. There is a
danger of accidents. Make sure that
the gross vehicle weight of the towing
vehicle is greater than the weight of
the vehicle to be towed.
NOTICE
If the tow bar or the towing rope is not
attached correctly, other vehicle parts
can be damaged. There is a danger
of damage to property. Attach the tow
bar or towing rope to the towing eye
correctly.

■Safety note
■General
In a car wash, the vehicle must be
able to roll freely.
Roll or push the vehicle, see page
145.
Some car washes require you to
get out of the vehicle. It is not possi-
ble to lock the vehicle from the out-
side in selector lever position N. If an attempt is made to lock the vehi-
cle, a signal sounds.
Ensure that the remote control is
located in the vehicle.
Switch on drive-ready state, see
page 45.
Do not rub wet headlights dry and
do not use abrasive or corrosive
cleaning agents.
Soak impurities such as insect resi-
dues with shampoo and wash off
with water.
Remove ice with a de-icer spray; do
not use an ice scraper.
After the vehicle has been washed,
briefly apply the brakes to dry them
otherwise braking effectiveness
may be temporarily 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 visi-
bility due to smearing, and to
reduce wiping noise and wiper
blade wear.
NOTICE
The vehicle can be damaged if auto-
matic washing bays or car washes
are used incorrectly. There is a dan-
ger of damage to property. Observe
the following notes:
●Textile car washes or systems
using soft brushes are preferable,
to avoid damage to the paintwork.
●Avoid washing bays or car washes
with guide rails higher than 10 cm,
4 in, to avoid damage to the body.
●Note the maximum tyre width of the
guide rail to avoid damage to tyres
and rims.
●Fold in the exterior mirrors to avoid
damaging them.
●Deactivate the wipers and the rain
sensor (if fitted) to avoid damage to
the wiper system.
Entering a car wash with a auto-
matic transmission
NOTICE
Selector lever position P is automati-
cally engaged when standby state is
switched off. There is a danger of
damage to property. Do not switch off
standby state in car washes.

clean and care for the leather
approximately every two months.
Clean light-coloured leather more
frequently as it has the tendency to
soil faster.
Use leather cleaner, otherwise dirt
and grease will attack the protec-
tive coating of the leather.
Regularly clean the upholstery with
a vacuum cleaner.
In the event of heavy soiling, for
example stains caused by drinks,
use a soft sponge or a lint-free
microfibre cloth with suitable inte-
rior cleaning agents.
Clean the upholstery up to the
seams using wide wiping actions.
Avoid rubbing vigorously.
When cleaning the wheels while
they are installed on the vehicle, only use neutral rim cleaner with a
pH value of between 5 and 9. Do
not use abrasive cleaners or steam
cleaners above 60 °C/140 °F.
Observe the manufacturer's
instructions.
Corrosive, acidic or alkaline
cleaners may destroy the protective
layer of adjacent parts, for example
brake discs.
After cleaning, briefly apply the
brakes to dry them. The heat gen-
erated by braking dries the brake
discs and brake pads and protects
them against corrosion.
Chrome-like surfaces should be
cleaned carefully with plenty of
water, particularly if affected by
road salt, if necessary with added
car shampoo.
The surfaces of rubber parts can be
contaminated or lose their shine
due to environmental influences.
Only use water and suitable care
products for cleaning.
Rubber parts subjected to high
wear and tear should be treated
regularly with rubber care products.
Do not use silicone-based care
products for treating rubber seals,
otherwise these could be damaged
and become a source of noise. Care of upholstery fabrics

Plastic parts include, for example:
Imitation leather surfaces.
Roof lining.
Lamp glass.
Parts sprayed matt black.
Painted parts in the interior.
Clean with a microfibre cloth.
Lightly moisten the cloth with water,
if necessary.
Do not soak the roof lining.
Dirt on the belt straps can interfere
with the action of the reel and rep-
resents a safety hazard.
Only clean the belt straps with a
mild soap solution while still fitted to
the vehicle.
Do not allow seat belts to retract unless they are dry.
Floor mats can be removed from
the vehicle to enable the interior to
be cleaned more thoroughly.
In the event of heavy soiling, clean
floor carpets using a microfibre
cloth and water or textile cleaner.
Rub back and forth in the direction
of travel to prevent matting.
Clean sensors or camera lenses
using a cloth moistened with a
small amount of glass cleaner. Plastic parts
NOTICE
Cleaning agents containing alcohol or
solvents, such as nitro thinners, cold
cleaners, fuel or similar can damage
plastic parts. There is a danger of
damage to property. Clean with a
microfibre cloth. Lightly moisten the
cloth with water, if necessary.
Seat belts
WARNING
Chemical cleaners can cause irrepa-
rable damage to the fabric of the seat
belts. The protective function of the
seat belts will be lost. There is a dan-
ger of injury or even death. Only use a
mild soap and water solution for
cleaning the seat belts.
Carpets and foot mats
WARNING
Objects in the driver's footwell can
restrict the pedal travel or block a
pedal that has been pressed. There is
a danger of accidents. Stow items in
the vehicle so that they are secure
and cannot get into the driver's
footwell. Only use floor mats that are
suitable for the vehicle and can be
securely fastened to the floor. Do not
use loose floor mats, and do not place
several floor mats on top of one
another. Make sure that there is suffi-
cient space for the pedals. Ensure
that floor mats are securely reat-
tached after having been removed, for
example for cleaning.
