!
If you want the gear position to remain in N i After running the vehicle through an auto-
(for example when the vehicle is pulled through
a car wash)
matic car wash, wipe any wax off of the wind-
shield (୴ page 410). This will prevent smears
and reduce wiping noise which can be caused by
residual wax on the windshield.
You can have your car washed in an auto-
matic car wash from the start. Automatic
car washes without brushes are prefera-
ble.

Ornamental moldings

is set to 0 (୴ page 61). Otherwise, e.g. the rain
sensor could activate and cause the wipers to
move unintentionally. This may lead to vehicle
damage.
If the vehicle is very dirty, prewash it
before running it through the automatic
car wash.
Due to the width of the vehicle, fold in exterior
rear view mirrors prior to running the vehicle
through an automatic car wash to prevent
damage to the mirrors.
For very dirty ornamental moldings of which you
are sure are chrome-plated, use a chrome clean-
er. If in doubt whether an ornamental molding is
chrome-plated, contact an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.
