Wheel Care products, take care not to
spray them on the brake disks.

Plastic and rubber parts

X

Use a gentle dishwashing detergent or mild
detergent for delicate fabrics as a washing
solution.

X

Wipe with a cloth moistened in a lukewarm
solution.
The surface may temporarily change color.
If this is the case, wait for it to dry.

G Warning!

Do not use cleaners or cockpit care sprays
containing solvents to clean the cockpit or
the steering wheel. Cleaners containing
solvents will make the surface porous and
vehicle occupants could suffer serious
injuries from plastic parts coming loose in
the event of air bag deployment.

!

Do not use oil, wax or scouring agents.

Otherwise you may scratch or damage the
surface.

Hard plastic trim items

X

Use Mercedes-Benz approved Interior Care
on a soft, lint-free cloth and apply with light
pressure.

COMAND display

!

You must switch off the COMAND display

and allow it to cool prior to cleaning.

!

Do not use any liquids or cleaning agents.

These can damage or even destroy the
audio display screen.

X

Use a standard microfiber cloth and apply
with light pressure.

Steering wheel

X

Wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly
or clean with Mercedes-Benz approved
Leather Care.

Carpets

X

Use Mercedes-Benz approved Carpet and
Fabric Care for cleaning the carpets.

Headliner

X

Use a soft bristle brush or a dry-shampoo
cleaner in case of excessive dirt.

Seat belts

X

Only use clear, lukewarm water and soap.

!

The seat belts must not be treated with

chemical cleaning agents. Do not dry the
seat belts at temperatures above 176‡
(80†) or in direct sunlight.

G Warning!

Do not bleach or dye seat belts as this may
severely weaken them. In a crash they may
not be able to provide adequate protection.

Upholstery

Using aftermarket seat covers or wearing
clothing that have the tendency to give off
coloring (e.g. when wet, etc.) may cause the
upholstery to become permanently
discolored. By lining the seats with a proper
intermediate cover, contact-discoloration will
be prevented.
