emergency manual park release (see
"Transmission Manual Release of P

Pre-Short Drop Function

When in a car washing, if the driver
keeps the RKE Transmitter in his/her
pocket, or in any place outside the
vehicle within 1 m (3.3 ft) distance, the
front windows will perform a pre-short
drop. This is a shorter drop compared
to the normal short drop performed
by the "Passive Entry" function when
you grab the door handle to enter the
vehicle.
In order to prevent water from
entering the vehicle between the
Maintenance and Care
upper edge of the glass window and
the door outline on the bodywork,
while the car is being washed, it is
advisable to disable the "Passive
Entry" from the MTC+ System,
for further information refer to
chapter "MTC+ Settings" in section
"Dashboard Instruments and controls".
When deactivating the "Passive Entry",
also the "Pre-Short Drop" function will
be disabled.
