To make the wording "Active hood v. Instruction manual" disappear from the instrument panel of the Mercedes C-Class, you will need to repair or replace the hood sensors: these will be located on the sides of the hood, immediately below the opening and closing pistons.

Make sure that the wiring connected to these sensors is not damaged; once the sensors or wiring have been replaced or repaired, you will notice that the error message will not be displayed again.

At the end of the operation, you can close the hood.
