Do not place additional floor mats over existing
mats or other objects.


Only use floor mats that have been approved for
the vehicle and can be properly fixed in place.


Ensure that the floor mats are securely fastened
again after they were removed for cleaning, for
example.◀


Floor mats can be removed from the passenger
compartment for cleaning.


If the floor carpets are very dirty, clean with a
microfiber cloth and water or a textile cleaner. To
prevent matting of the carpet, rub back and forth
in the direction of travel only.


Sensors/cameras

To clean sensors and cameras, use a cloth mois‐
tened with a small amount of glass cleaner.


Displays/screens

Clean the displays with an antistatic microfiber
cloth.


Cleaning displays
Do not use chemical or household cleans‐
ers.


Keep all fluids and moisture away from the unit.


Otherwise, they could affect or damage surfa‐
ces or electrical components.


Avoid pressing too hard when cleaning and do
not use abrasive materials; otherwise, damage
can result.◀


Long-term vehicle storage

For idle phases that last several weeks, park the
vehicle with a fully charged battery if possible.
Your service center can advise you on what to
consider when storing the vehicle for longer
than six weeks.


Do not allow the vehicle to sit idle for ex‐
tended periods with a low charging state

Before storing the vehicle for an extended pe‐
riod, check the battery charge indicator to en‐
sure that the high-voltage battery is fully


charged. If necessary, charge the high-voltage
battery by driving the vehicle. Check the charge
level regularly, and if necessary recharge the
high-voltage battery by driving the vehicle. Al‐
lowing the high-voltage battery charge to drop
too low will damage the battery.◀

Note

Follow the instructions for discharging the high-
voltage battery, refer to page 159.
