These may damage the display surface. Do
not put pressure on the display surface
when cleaning. This could lead to
irreparable damage to the display.
Cleaning the plastic trim
G
Warning!
When cleaning the steering wheel boss and
dashboard, do not use cockpit sprays or
cleaning agents containing solvents. Cleaning
agents containing solvents cause the surface
to become porous, and as a result, plastic
parts may break away and be thrown around
the interior when an air bag is deployed, which
may result in severe injuries.
!
Do not affix the following to plastic
surfaces:
R
stickers
R
films
R
scented oil bottles or similar items
You can otherwise damage the plastic.
!
Do not allow cosmetics, insect repellent
or sunscreen to come into contact with the
plastic trim. This maintains the high-quality
look of the surfaces.
X
Wipe the plastic trim with a damp, lint-free
cloth, e.g. a microfiber cloth.
X
Heavy soiling: use car care and cleaning
products recommended and approved by
Mercedes-Benz.
The surface may change color temporarily.
Wait until the surface is dry again.
Cleaning the steering wheel and gear or
selector lever
X
Wash thoroughly with a damp cloth or use
a leather care agent that has been
recommended and approved by Mercedes-
Benz.
Cleaning real wood and trim strips
X
Wipe the wooden trim and trim strips with
a damp, lint-free cloth, e.g. a microfiber
cloth.
X
Heavy soiling: use car care and cleaning
products recommended and approved by
Mercedes-Benz.
!
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents
such as tar remover, wheel cleaners,
polishes or waxes. There is otherwise a risk
of damaging the surface.
!
Do not use chrome polish for trim strips.
The trim strips have a chrome look but are
mostly made of anodized aluminum and
can lose their shine if chrome polish is
used. Use a damp, lint-free cloth instead
when cleaning the trim strips.
Chrome polish can be used to remove very
heavy soiling from trim strips which you are
sure are made of chrome. If you are unsure
as to whether a trim strip is chrome-plated
or not, consult an authorized Mercedes-
Benz Center.
Cleaning the seat covers
!
Do not use microfiber cloths to clean
genuine leather, artificial leather or
Alcantara
®
covers. If used often, these can
damage the cover.
