For cleaning, do not use any of the fol-
lowing:
R
alcohol-based thinner or petrol

ble damage to the display.
Cleaning the plastic trim
G Risk of injury
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 airbag is deployed, which
may result in severe injuries.
!
Do not affix the following to plastic surfa-
ces:
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 in 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 microfibre cloth.
X
Heavy soiling: use car care and cleaning
products recommended and approved by
Mercedes-Benz.
The surface may change colour tempora-
rily. Wait until the surface is dry again.
Cleaning real wood and trim strips
X
Wipe the wooden trim and trim strips with
a damp, lint-free cloth, e.g. a microfibre
cloth.
X
Heavy soiling: use car care and cleaning

!
Do not use solvent-based cleaning agents
such as tar remover, wheel cleaners, pol-
ishes or waxes. There is otherwise a risk of
damaging the surface.
Cleaning the seat covers
!
Do not use microfibre cloths to clean gen-
uine leather, artificial leather or
Alcantara
®
covers. If used often, these can
damage the cover.
!
Observe the following when cleaning:
R
clean genuine leather covers carefully
with a damp cloth and then wipe the cov-
ers down with a dry cloth. Make sure that
the leather does not become soaked. It
may otherwise become rough and
cracked. Only use leather care agents
that have been tested and approved by
Mercedes-Benz. You can obtain these
from a qualified specialist workshop, e.g.
a Mercedes-Benz Service centre.
R
clean artificial leather covers with a cloth
moistened with a solution containing 1%
detergent (e.g. washing-up liquid).
R
clean cloth covers with a microfibre cloth
moistened with a solution containing 1%
detergent (e.g. washing-up liquid). Rub
carefully and always wipe entire seat sec-
tions to avoid leaving visible lines. Leave
the seat to dry afterwards. Cleaning
results depend on the type of dirt and
how long it has been there.
R
clean Alcantara ® covers with a damp
cloth. Make sure you wipe entire seat
sections to avoid leaving visible lines.
