IMPORTANT
For car washes where the car is pulled for-
ward with rolling wheels, the following
applies:
1. Before washing the car, make sure that
the automatic rain sensor is deacti-
vated, otherwise there is the risk of it
starting and damaging the wiper arms.
2. Make sure that the door mirrors are
retracted, any auxiliary lamps secured,
antennas retracted or removed, other-
wise they risk being damaged by the
automatic car wash.
3. Drive into the car wash.

IMPORTANT
The system will automatically switch to P
mode unless the above step is followed.
The wheels are locked in P mode, which
they should not be when putting the car
through an automatic car wash.
NOTE
Be aware that if the car has the keyless
locking and unlocking function*, the car
can be locked/unlocked when the car is
being washed if the remote control key is
within range.
