WARNING

For safety reasons, switch off the windshield
wipers and remove the SmartKey from the
ignition lock before changing the wiper blades
(vehicles with KEYLESS-GO: make sure that
the on-board electronics are in state

0).

Otherwise, the wiper motor could be switched
on suddenly and cause injury.

Never open the hood if a windshield wiper

arm has been folded away from the
windshield.
Never fold a windshield wiper arm without
a wiper blade back onto the windshield/
rear window.
Hold the windshield wiper arm firmly when
you change the wiper blade. If you release
the windshield wiper arm without a wiper
blade and it falls onto the windshield, the
windshield may be damaged by the force of
the impact.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have
the wiper blades changed at a qualified
specialist workshop.
