	In order to protect the fuel tank from condensate, we recommend filling the tank completely
	Brake the vehicle until the service brakes are hot so that adhering moisture on the brake disks and brake pads evaporates	 This prevents the brake pad from becoming stuck to the brake disks.
	Secure the vehicle by engaging a gear or by a wedge, parking brake in release position
	Move all the seats into the normal position (set seat backrest to upright position)
	Open the door on the passenger-side and lock the vehicle with the transmitter key	Model 450
	Open hood, close the vehicle doors and lock with the transmitter key	Model 452
	Open engine hood, close the vehicle doors and lock with the transmitter key	Model 454
	Disconnect battery ground line	 This in turn prevents any discharging of the battery through quiescent current consumers (time switch etc.). STAR DIAGNOSIS need not be connected.
	Disconnect/connect battery ground line	Model 450	AR54.10-P-0003SM
		Model 452	AR54.10-P-0003RR
