Automatic car wash
Prior to cleaning the engine compartment,
make sure to protect electrical compo-
nents and connectors from the intrusion of
water and cleaning agents.
Do not use hot water or wash your vehicle
in direct sunlight.
You can have your car washed in an auto-
matic car wash from the start. Automatic
car washes without brushes are prefera-
ble.
̈
Only use a mild car wash detergent,
such as Mercedes-Benz approved Car
Shampoo.
Corrosion protection, such as MB Anticor-
rosion Wax, should be applied to the en-
gine 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.
If the vehicle is very dirty, prewash it be-
fore running it through the automatic car
wash.
̈
Thoroughly spray the vehicle with a dif-
fused jet of water.
Direct only a very weak spray towards
the ventilation intake.
!
Due to the width of the vehicle, fold in
exterior rear view mirrors prior to run-
ning the vehicle through an automatic
car wash to prevent damage to the
mirrors.
̈
̈
Use plenty of water and rinse the
sponge and chamois frequently.
Vehicle washing
Rinse with clean water and thoroughly
dry with a chamois.
In the winter, thoroughly remove all traces
of road salt as soon as possible.
Make sure that the windshield wiper
switch is set to 0 (୴ page 53). Other-
wise, the rain sensor could activate and
cause the wipers to move unintention-
ally. This may lead to vehicle damage.
Do not allow cleaning agents to dry on
the finish.
When washing the vehicle underbody, do
not forget to clean the inner sides of the
wheels.
