Operation

Vehicle care

Wet cleaning:

̈

Brush the top with a soft-bristled
brush.

Wash with clear water or with a mild
detergent and an ample supply of
lukewarm water by wiping with a
soft-bristled brush or sponge from
front to rear.Then rinse thoroughly
with clear water.

Wash the top only when heavily soiled.

If only parts of the top have been washed,
wet the entire top and allow it to air-dry
before lowering it into the storage
compartment.

For cleaning soft top or wind screen never
use:

ț

gasoline

ț

thinner

ț

tar and stain removers

ț

glass cleaner

ț

similar organic solvents

They will cause damage which is not
covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited
Warranty.

Ornamental moldings

For regular cleaning and care of
ornamental moldings, use a damp cloth.

i

In general, regular spraying or cleaning with

clear water is sufficient to keep the soft top
clean.

!

Do not use chrome cleaner on ornamental

moldings. Although ornamental moldings may
have chrome appearance, they could be made of
anodized aluminum that will be damaged when
cleaned with chrome cleaner. Instead, use a
damp cloth to clean those ornamental moldings.

For very dirty ornamental moldings of which you
are sure are chrome-plated, use a chrome
cleaner. If in doubt whether an ornamental
molding is chrome-plated, contact an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Center.
