WARNING
Fold back the top part of the wind screen if it
restricts your vision or when it is dark. It could
otherwise impair your view to the rear. As a
result of the visibility impairment, you could
cause an accident and injure yourself or
others.
! Mercedes-Benz recommends that you
only use wind screens which have been
tested and approved for Mercedes-Benz
vehicles. This helps to prevent damage to
the vehicle.
! Observe the backrest position of the front
seats if the wind screen is installed, since
the backrest could collide with the wind
