Replacing wiper blades
Placing wiper arms in vertical position
Warning!
G
!
To avoid damage to the hood:
ț
The wiper arms should only be folded
forward when in the vertical position.
For safety reasons, switch off wipers and re-
move SmartKey from starter switch
(vehicles with KEYLESS-GO*: Make sure the
vehicle’s on-board electronics have
status 0) before replacing a wiper blade.
Otherwise the wiper motor could suddenly
turn on and cause injury.
ț
Never open the hood when a wiper arm is
folded forward.
! Hold on to the wiper when folding the wiper
arm back. If released, the force of the impact
from the tensioning spring could crack the wind-
shield.
Do not allow the wiper arms to contact the wind-
shield glass without a wiper blade inserted.

For your convenience, we recommend that you
have this work carried out by an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
Wiper blades are components that are sub-
ject to wear and tear. Replace the wiper
blades twice a year, preferably in the spring
and fall. Otherwise the windows will not be
properly wiped. As a result, you may not be
able to observe surrounding traffic condi-
tions and could cause an accident.
̈ Turn SmartKey to starter switch
position 1 (୴ page 40).
̈
Turn combination switch to wiper
setting II (୴ page 58).
̈
With wiper arms in the vertical position,
turn SmartKey in starter switch to
position 0.
̈
Remove SmartKey from starter switch.
