to negligent or incorrect care cannot always be removed
or repaired with the car-care products recommended
here. In such cases it is best to seek aid at your
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center.

your vehicle and give important “how-to” information as
well as references to Mercedes-Benz approved car-care
products.
Additional information can be found in the booklet titled
“Vehicle Care Guide”.Powe r w as h e r
When using a power washer for cleaning the vehicle
always observe manufacturer’s operating instructions.

KEYLESS-GO-card is in close proximity, approx. 3 ft.

Do not aim directly at electrical parts, electrical
connectors, seals, or other rubber parts.
