damage to paintwor
kdue to improper treat-
ment.

ish the vehicle. Polishing will make the

use paint cleaner ,grindin gorp olishing
products, or gloss preservers such as wax.
These product sare only suitable for high-
gloss finishes. Using them on avehicle with
am att finish results in serious damage to
the surface (gleaming, spotted areas).
Always have paintwor krepairs carried out
at aq ualified specialist workshop, e.g. a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
i From the range of available Mercedes-
Ben zcare products, use only the insect
remover and the car shampoo.
Cleaning the paintwork Scratches, corrosive deposits, areas affected
by corrosion and damage caused by inade-
quate care cannot always be completely
repaired. In such cases, visit
aqualified spe-
cialist workshop immediately, e.g. a
Mercedes-Benz Service Centre.
X Remove the following types of dirt immedi-
ately, whilst avoiding rubbing too hard.
Soak:
R
insec tremains with insec tremover
R bird droppings with water
and rinse off the treated surface after-
wards.
Remove:
R tree resin, oils, fuels and greases by rub-
bing gently with acloths oaked in petro-
leum ether or lighter fluid
R tar stain with tar remover
R wax with silicon eremover !
Do not affix:
R stickers
R films
R magnetic plates or similar items
to painted surfaces .Otherwise, you could
damage the paintwork.
Cleaning the Cabriolet soft top X
Light soiling: you can clean the soft top
while it is dry or rinse it with clear water.
X Normal to heavy soiling: you can clean
the soft top with abrush and clear water.

agent .Always brush in the direction of the
fabric, from fron ttoback.
! Never use any of the following to clean the
soft top:
R petrol

R tar or stain remover
R other organic solvents
! Remove bird droppings immediately as
they are corrosive and, therefore, can make
the soft-top fabric leak. Do not use high-
pressure cleanin gequipment to clean the
vehicle. Do not use sharp-edged equipment
to remov eice and snow.
Frequen tcleanin greduces the resistance to
dirt of the soft top.
To restore this resistance, clean your soft top
with Mercedes-Benz soft top care products.
Incorrec tcleanin gand care, as well as ageing,
can cause soft-top seams to leak. Have the
soft-top seams sealed at aqualified specialist
