Engine Cleaning
Before running the vehicle through an
automatic car wash, fold back the
outside mirrors to prevent them from
getting damaged.
If the vehicle has been run through an
automatic car wash-in particular one of
the older installations - rewipe the reces-
sed sections in the tail lamps (designed
to prevent soiling) if necessary. No
solvents (fuels, thinners etc.) must be
used.
Window Cleaning
Corrosion protection, such as MB
Anticorrosion Wax should be applied
to the engine compartment after every
engine cleaning. Before applying, all
control linkage bushings and joints
should be lubricated. The poly-V-belt
and all pulleys should be protected
from any wax.
Use a window cleaning solution on
very dirty or oil-stained windows.
Wiper Blades
Clean the wiper blade rubber with a
clean cloth and detergent solution.
Replace blades twice a year; once
before and once after winter.
Car Washing
In the winter, thoroughly remove all
traces of road salt as soon as possible.
Plastic Parts, Headliner and
Rubber Parts
Before washing your vehicle, remove
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.
When washing the underbody, do not
forget to clean the inner sides of the
wheels.
Do not use oil or wax on these parts.
See separate subject for additional
information.
Tar Stains
Seat Belts
Thoroughly spray the car with a
diffused jet of water. Direct only a very
weak spray towards the ventilation
intake. Use plenty of water and rinse
the sponge and chamois frequently.
Quickly remove tar stains before they
dry and become more difficult to
remove. MB Tar Remover is
recommended.
The webbing must not be treated with
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 sunlight.
Rinse with clear water and thoroughly
wipe dry with a chamois. Do not allow
cleaning agents to dry on the finish.
Headlamp Cleaning System
Warning!
The condition of the wiper blades is
important for satisfactory cleaning of
the headlamp lenses. We therefore
recommend that the blades be inspected
regularly.
Do not bleach or dye seat belts as this
may severely weaken them. In a
crash they may not be able to provide
adequate protection.
Replace damaged wiper blades.
