Cleaning the exhaust pipes

G

WARNING

The exhaust tail pipe and tail pipe trim can

become very hot. If you come into contact

with these parts of the vehicle, you could burn

yourself. There is a risk of injury.
Always be particularly careful around the

exhaust tail pipe and the tail pipe trim. Allow

these components to cool down before touch-

ing them.

!

Do not clean the exhaust pipe with acid-

based cleaning agents, such as bathroom

cleaner or wheel cleaner.

!

AMG vehicles with black exhaust pipes:

black chromed faceplates should not be

polished with a chrome polish. They will

otherwise lose their black shine. For opti-

mal care, the screens should be rubbed

with a lightly oiled cloth after every car

wash. Commercially available engine and

care oils are suitable for this.
For heavier soiling, you can apply a fine

paintwork polish with a microfiber cloth.

Remove the excess polish residue after pol-

ishing.

Impurities combined with the effects of road

grit and corrosive environmental factors may

cause flash rust to form on the surface. You

can restore the original shine of the exhaust

pipe by cleaning it regularly, especially in win-

ter and after washing.

X

Clean the exhaust pipe with a care product

tested and approved by Mercedes-Benz.
