NOTICE
Please be careful when parking your vehicle in areas with
parking barriers or curbs. These vary in height and could dam-
age your bumper and related parts if the front of your vehicle
hits a barrier or curb that is too high while you are getting into or
out of a parking spot.
Always be careful when you enter a driveway or drive up or
down steep ramps or over curbs or other obstacles. Parts of the
vehicle close to the ground may be damaged (such as bumper
covers, spoilers, and parts of the engine, suspension, and ex-
haust systems).

2 Slight differences to these figures are possible, depending on wheel and tire size fitted and the level selected.

12 Volt sockets in the vehicle

Changing wiper blades
Lift the wiper arm(s) away from the windshield.
Press and hold the release button ⇒ fig. 172 (1).
While lifting the wiper blade in the direction of the wiper arm, pull
off the wiper blade in the direction of the arrow. This may require
moderate force.
Install a new wiper blade of same length and type onto the wiper
arm by pushing in the opposite direction of the arrow until it latches.
Carefully fold the wiper arm back down onto the windshield.
WARNING
Worn or dirty wiper blades reduce visibility and increase the
risk of accidents and severe injuries.
Always change wiper blades if they are damaged or worn,
and if they cannot clean the windows sufficiently.
NOTICE
Damaged or dirty wiper blades can scratch the windshield.
Solvents, abrasive sponges and sharp-edged objects will
damage the graphite coating on the wiper blades.
Do not clean the windows with gasoline, nail polish remover,
paint thinner or similar fluids.
To help prevent damage to the engine hood and the wind-
shield wiper arms, lift the wiper arms away from the windshield
only when they are in the service position.
Waxing and polishing vehicle paint

length and bolt head shape must be used. The attachment of the
wheels and function of the brake system depend on this.
It may not be possible to use wheel bolts from different vehicles of the
same model.
Wheel bolt tightening torque
Correctly tightened bolts for steel and alloy wheel rims should have a
torque of 88 ft-lbs. (120 Nm). After changing a wheel, have the wheel
bolt tightening torque checked right away with an accurate torque
wrench.
Before you check the tightening torque, replace corroded and diffi-
cult-to-turn wheel bolts and clean the threads in the wheel hub.
Never grease or oil the wheel bolts and the threads in the wheel
hubs. The bolts can come loose while driving if greased or oiled, even
if tightened to the required torque.
WARNING
Improperly tightened wheel bolts can come loose while driving
and cause you to lose control over the vehicle, resulting in ac-
cidents and serious injuries.
Only use wheel bolts that belong your vehicle and to the
wheel being installed.
Never use different wheel bolts.
Wheel bolts and wheel hub threads must always be clean,
easy-to-turn and free of oil and grease.
Only use the lug wrench that is supplied with the vehicle to
loosen the wheel bolts.
Loosen the wheel bolts only about 1 turn before lifting the
vehicle with the jack.
Never grease or oil the wheel bolts and the threads in the
wheel hubs. The bolts can come loose while driving if greased
or oiled, even if tightened to the required torque.
Never loosen bolted connections on wheel rims with bolted
rim rings.
If the wheel bolts are not tightened to the proper torque, the
wheel can come off the vehicle when it is moving. Extremely
high torque can damage the wheel bolts and/or their threads.
