headlamps)
The front and rear light clusters of your vehicle
are equipped with LED light bulbs. Do not
replace the bulbs yourself. Contact a qualified
specialist workshop which has the necessary
specialist knowledge and tools to carry out the
work required.
Lamps are an important aspect of vehicle safety.
You must therefore make sure that these func-
tion correctly at all times. Have the headlamp
setting checked regularly. Windscreen wipers
Switching the windscreen wipers on/
off
! Do not operate the windscreen wipers when
the windscreen is dry, as this could damage
the wiper blades. Moreover, dust that has col- lected on the windscreen can scratch the
glass if wiping takes place when the wind-
screen is dry.
If it is necessary to switch on the windscreen
wipers in dry weather conditions, always
operate them using washer fluid.
! If the windscreen wipers leave smears on
the windscreen after the vehicle has been
washed in an automatic car wash, this may be
due to wax or other residue. Clean the wind-
screen with washer fluid after an automatic
car wash.
! Intermittent wiping with rain sensor: due to
optical influences and the windscreen becom- ing dirty in dry weather conditions, the wind-
screen wipers may be activated inadvertently. Windscreen wipers
121Lights and windscreen wipers Z

This could damage the windscreen wiper
blades or scratch the windscreen.
For this reason, you should always switch off the windscreen wipers in dry weather. Combination switch

X Turn the key to position 1or 2in the ignition
lock (Y page 146).
X Turn the combination switch to the corre-
sponding position.
In the ÄorÅ position, the appropriate
wiping frequency is set automatically according to the intensity of the rain. In the Åposition,
the rain sensor is more sensitive than in the
Ä position, causing the windscreen wiper to
wipe more frequently.
Vehicles with MAGIC VISION CONTROL: the
washer fluid is fed through the wiper blades and when wiping with washer fluid îthe washer
fluid is emitted directly from the blades.
If the wiper blades are worn, the windscreen will
no longer be wiped properly. This could mean
you are unable to observe the traffic conditions. Replacing the wiper blades
Important safety notes G
WARNING
If the windscreen wipers begin to move while
you are changing the wiper blades, you can be trapped by the wiper arm. There is a risk of
injury.
Always switch off the windscreen wipers and
ignition before changing the wiper blades.
! Always position the windscreen wiper arms
vertically before folding them away from the
windscreen. By doing so, you will avoid dam-
age to the bonnet.
! To avoid damaging the windscreen wiper
blades, make sure that you touch only the
wiper arm of the windscreen wiper.
! Never open the bonnet if a windscreen
wiper arm has been folded away from the
windscreen.
Never fold a windscreen wiper arm without a
wiper blade back onto the windscreen.
Hold the windscreen wiper arm firmly when
you change the wiper blade. If you release the windscreen wiper arm without a wiper blade
and it falls onto the windscreen, the wind-
screen may be damaged by the force of the
impact.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have
the wiper blades changed at a qualified spe-
cialist workshop.
