Warning: Bonnet Open

[Nekomp]

Greetings, everybody. Is there a specific technique for securely shutting the hood of a 2018 E Class? Each time I sporadically open and shut my car's hood, the bonnet open warning alert goes off on the subsequent usage, often after travelling around one mile.

Ensure that the sensor attached to one of the bonnet locks at the front is securely fastened, and if necessary, replace it.

Thank you for your helpful answer.

If the procedure is similar to that of my C Class, you must release the bonnet from a height of around 8-10 inches instead of just pushing it closed. Failure to do so may result in improper engagement of one or both of the locks, leading to a warning on the dashboard.
It is likely a characteristic exclusive to German automobiles, since my BMW experiences the same issue.

My occurrence was singular. It is quite bothersome and persistent in emitting beeping sounds.

It was discovered that the latch was not properly fastened on one side, therefore it needed to be opened and then closed again.

Occasionally, the rubber stoppers may need rotation to ensure they are not impeding complete closure.

As said before, firmly close the bonnet to prevent the alert from appearing.
