Engine cleaning
Automatic car wash
Prior to cleaning the engine compartment,
make sure to protect electrical compo-
nents and connectors from contact with
water and cleaning agents.
You can have your car washed in an auto-
matic car wash from the start. Automatic
car washes without brushes are prefera-
ble.
Hand-wash
Corrosion protection, such as MB Anticor-
rosion Wax should be applied to the engine
compartment after every engine cleaning.
Before applying, all control linkage bush-
ings and joints should be lubricated. The
poly-V-belt and all pulleys should be pro-
tected from any wax.
Do not use hot water or wash your vehicle
in direct sunlight.
If the vehicle is very dirty, prewash it be-
fore running it through the automatic car
wash.

Only use a mild car wash detergent,
such as Mercedes-Benz approved Car
Shampoo.

fused jet of water.

Direct only a very weak spray towards
the ventilation intake.
In the winter, thoroughly remove all traces
of road salt as soon as possible.

Use plenty of water and rinse the
sponge and chamois frequently.
When washing the vehicle underbody, do
not forget to clean the inner sides of the
wheels.
