To avoid damage to the hood, the wiper

arms should only be folded forward when
in the vertical position.

Never open the hood when a wiper arm is

folded forward.
Hold on to the wiper when folding a wiper
arm back. If released, the force of the
impact from the tensioning spring could
crack the windshield.
Do not allow a wiper arm to contact the
windshield glass without a wiper blade
inserted.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have
this work carried out at an authorized
