2021 E450 All Terrain
E450 All Terrain Wagon

I recently purchased a 2021 E450 All Terrain Wagon. When I read the Owner's Manual (which appears to be for a prior model), on page 293 it advises, before entering a car wash, switching off active brake assist, active distance assist DISTRONIC, Hold function, active parking assist, etc. It also warns that the tailgate may open unintentionally. I believe I have figured out how to switch off all of the assist functions. But I have found no way to deactivate the tailgate Hands-Free Access function (p. 75) which it appears the car wash may activate. Has anyone taken one of these cars through a car wash successfully? Are these real risks?
