water and rinse the sponge and
chamois frequently.
Wiper Blade
Prior to cleaning the engine
compartment make sure to protect
electrical components and connectors
from the intrusion of water or cleaning
agents.
Clean the wiper blade rubber with a
clean cloth and detergent solution.
Replace blade twice a year; once
before and once after winter.
Rinse with clear water and thoroughly
wipe dry with a chamois. Do not allow
cleaning agents to dry on the finish.
If the vehicle has been run through an
automatic car wash -in particular one
of the older installations - rewipe the
recessed sections in the taillamps
(designed to prevent soiling) if
necessary. No solvents (fuels, thinners
etc.) must be used.
Headlamp Cleaning System
Corrosion protection, such as MB
Anticorrosion Wax should be applied
to the engine compartment after every
engine cleaning. Before applying, all

lubricated. The poly-V-belt and all
pulleys should be protected from any
wax.
The condition of the wiper blades is
important for satisfactory cleaning of
the headlamp lenses. We therefore
recommend that the blades be
inspected regularly.
Replace damaged wiper blades.
In the winter, thoroughly remove all
traces of road salt as soon as possible.
Seat Belts
Car Washing
When washing the underbody, do not
forget to clean the inner sides of the

chemical cleaning agents. Use only
clear, lukewarm water and soap. Do
not dry the webbing at temperatures
above 176°F (80°C) or in direct

automatic car wash with the soft top in
place or use a power washer to clean it,
as you may damage the soft top
material.

insect residues. MB Insect Remover is
recommended. Do not use hot water or
wash your car in direct sunlight. Use
only a mild car wash detergent, such as
MB Autoshampoo.

all glass surfaces. MB Glass Cleaner
