Warning!

For safety reasons, switch off the wipers and
remove the SmartKey from the starter switch

vehicle’s on-board electronics have status

Warning!

Wiper blades are components that are subject
to wear and tear. Replace the wiper blades
twice a year, preferably in the spring and fall.
Otherwise the windshield will not be wiped
properly. As a result, you may not be able to
observe surrounding traffic conditions and
could cause an accident.

!

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
Mercedes-Benz Center.
