Cleaning the plastic trim
WARNING
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 air bag is deployed, which
may result in severe injuries.
Do not affix the following to
plastic
surfaces:
• stickers
• films
• scented oil bottles or similar items
You can otherwise damage the plastic.
Do not allow cosmetics, insect
repellent
or sunscreen to come into contact with the
plastic trim. This maintains the high-quality
look of the surfaces.
Wipe the plastic trim with a damp, lint-free
cloth, e.g. a microfiber cloth.
Heavy soiling: use car care and cleaning
products recommended and approved by
Mercedes-Benz.
The surface may change color temporarily.
Wait until the surface is dry again.
