Care

General Notes

!

For cleaning your vehicle, do not use any

of the following:

R

dry, rough or hard cloths

R

abrasive cleaning agents

R

solvents

R

cleaning agents containing solvents

Do not scrub.

Do not touch the surfaces or protective

films with hard objects, e.g. a ring or ice

scraper. You could otherwise scratch or

damage the surfaces and protective film.

H

Environmental note

Dispose of empty packaging and cleaning

cloths in an environmentally responsible man-

ner.

!

Do not park up the vehicle for an extended

period straight after cleaning it, particularly

after having cleaned the wheels with wheel

cleaner. Wheel cleaners could cause

increased corrosion of the brake discs and

brake pads/linings. For this reason, you

should drive for a few minutes after clean-

ing. Braking heats the brake discs and the

brake pads/linings, thus drying them. The

vehicle can then be parked up.

Regular care of your vehicle is a condition for

retaining the quality in the long term.

Use care products and cleaning agents rec-

ommended and approved by Mercedes-Benz.

WARNING

Braking efficiency is reduced after the vehicle

has been washed. There is a risk of an acci-

dent.

After washing the vehicle, brake carefully

while paying attention to the traffic conditions

in order to restore full braking efficiency.

!

If DISTRONIC PLUS or the HOLD function

is activated, the vehicle brakes automati-

cally in certain situations. To prevent dam-

age to the vehicle, deactivate DISTRONIC

PLUS and the HOLD function in the follow-

ing or other similar situations:

R

when towing the vehicle

R

in the car wash

!

Make sure that the automatic transmis-

sion is in position N when washing your

vehicle in a tow-through car wash. The vehi-

cle could be damaged if the transmission is

in another position.
