Do not use polish on matt decorative foil.
R
Polishing will have the effect of shining the
foil-wrapped surface.
Do not treat matt or structured decorative
R
foils with wax. Permanent stains may occur.
Scratches, corrosive deposits, areas affected by
corrosion and damage caused by incorrect care
cannot always be completely repaired. In such
cases, visit a qualified specialist workshop.
You can obtain more information on care and
cleaning products from the manufacturer.
In the case of foil-wrapped surfaces, optical dif‐
ferences may occur between the surfaces that
were not protected by a decorative foil after
removing a decorative foil.
%
Have work or repairs to decorative foils car‐
ried out at a qualified specialist workshop,
e.g. in a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
Notes on care of car parts
& WARNING Risk of entrapment if the
windscreen wipers are switched on while
the windscreen is being cleaned
If the windscreen wipers are set in motion
while you are cleaning the windscreen or
wiper blades, you can be trapped by the
wiper arm.
Always switch off the windscreen wip‐
#
ers and the ignition before cleaning the
windscreen or wiper blades.
& WARNING Risk of burns from the tail‐
pipe and tailpipe trims
The exhaust tailpipe and tailpipe trims can
become very hot. If you come into contact
with these parts of the vehicle, you could
burn yourself.
Always be particularly careful around
#
the tailpipe and the tailpipe trims and
supervise children especially closely in
this area.
Internal use only
Allow vehicle parts to cool down before
#
touching them.
To avoid damage to the vehicle, observe the
notes on cleaning and care of the following vehi‐
cle parts:
Wheels and rims
Use water and acid-free alloy wheel cleaners.
R
Do not use acidic alloy wheel cleaners to
R
remove brake dust. This could damage wheel
bolts and brake components.
To avoid corrosion of the brake disks and
R
brakepads, drive the vehicle for a few
minutes after cleaning before parking it. The
brake disks and brakepads warm up and dry
out.
Windows
Clean the windows inside and outside with a
R
damp cloth and with a cleaning agent recom‐
mended for Mercedes-Benz.
Do not use dry cloths or abrasive or solvent-
R
based cleaning agents to clean the inside of
windows.
