Operation

Vehicle care

Hard plastic trim items

Pour Mercedes-Benz approved Interior
Care onto a soft lint-free cloth and apply
with light pressure.

Headliner

Clean with soft bristle brush, or use a
dry-shampoo cleaner in case of excessive
dirt.

Seat belts

The webbing must not be treated with
chemical cleaning agents. Use only clear,
lukewarm water and soap. Do not dry the
webbing at temperatures above 176°F
(80°C) or in direct sunlight.

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 dis-
colored. By lining the seats with a proper
intermediate cover, contact-discoloration
will be prevented.

Leather upholstery

Wipe leather upholstery with a damp cloth
and dry thoroughly or clean with
Mercedes-Benz approved Leather Care.
Exercise particular care when cleaning per-
forated leather as its underside should not
become wet.

Plastic and rubber parts

Do not use oil or wax on these parts.

Wood trims

Dampen cloth using water and use damp
cloth to clean wood trims in your vehicle.
Do not use solvents like tar remover or
wheel cleaner nor polishes or waxes as
these may be abrasive.

Warning!

G

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.
