Vehicle care
Leather upholstery*
Please not that leather upholstery is a
natural product and is therefore subject to
a natural aging process. Leather
upholstery may also react to certain
ambient influences such as high humidity
or high temperature by showing wrinkles
for example.
Wipe leather upholstery with a damp
cloth and dry thoroughly or clean with
Mercedes-Benz approved Leather
Care.
!
To avoid damage to leather upholstery:
Wipe with light pressure only.
Do not clean with abrasive cleaning agents
such as scouring milk or powder.
Do not soak the leather upholstery.
As leather is a natural product, it could
otherwise harden or become porous.
Exercise particular care when cleaning
perforated leather as its underside should
not become wet.
