Never fold a windshield wiper arm without

a wiper blade back onto the windshield.

Hold the windshield wiper arm firmly when

you change the wiper blade. If you release

the windshield wiper arm without a wiper

blade and it falls onto the windshield, the

windshield can be damaged by the force of

the impact.

Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have

the wiper blades replaced by a qualified

specialist workshop, e.g. at an authorized

Mercedes-Benz Center.

Always position the windshield wiper

arms vertically before folding them away

from the windshield. By doing so, you will

avoid damage to the hood.
