Operation

Vehicle care

Rinse with clean water and thoroughly 
dry with a chamois.

Do not allow cleaning agents to dry on 
the finish.

Automatic car wash

You can have your car washed in an auto-
matic car wash from the start. Automatic 
car washes without brushes are prefera-
ble.

To protect the filter system, switch the 
climate control to air recirculation 
mode (

page 183).

If the vehicle is very dirty, prewash it 
before running it through the automatic 
car wash.

Ornamental moldings

For regular cleaning and care of 
ornamental moldings, use a damp cloth.

!

Do not use scouring agents on these parts.

Never apply strong force and only use a soft, 
non-scratching cloth when cleaning the vehicle. 
Do not attempt to wipe the surface with a dry 
cloth or sponge.

Otherwise you may scratch or damage the paint.

!

Do not clean your vehicle in an automatic 

touchless car wash which use caustic spray. 
Otherwise the caustic spray will damage the 
paint or ornamental moldings.

!

Make sure that the windshield wiper switch 

is set to

0

 (

page 58). Otherwise, e.g. the rain 

sensor could activate and cause the wipers to 
move unintentionally. This may lead to vehicle 
damage.

Due to the width of the vehicle, fold in exterior 
rear view mirrors prior to running the vehicle 
through an automatic car wash to prevent 
damage to the mirrors.

i

After running the vehicle through an auto-

matic car wash, wipe any wax off of the wind-
shield (

page 319). This will prevent smears 

and reduce wiping noise which can be caused by 
residual wax on the windshield.

When leaving the car wash, make sure that the 
mirrors are folded out. Otherwise they may 
vibrate.

!

Do not use chrome cleaner on ornamental 

moldings. Although ornamental moldings may 
have chrome appearance, they could be made of 
anodized aluminum that will be damaged when 
cleaned with chrome cleaner. Instead, use a 
damp cloth to clean those ornamental moldings.

For very dirty ornamental moldings of which you 
are sure are chrome-plated, use a chrome 
cleaner. If in doubt whether an ornamental 
molding is chrome-plated, contact an authorized 
Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.
