Dirty/Spotted Plastic Interior Trim Parts
For cleaning the interior trim panels, do not use any dry, rough or hard cloths as the surface of the interior trim panels can be scratched or damaged due to chafing by these incompatible cloths. Our recommendation, for each of the remedies below, would be the use of the Mercedes-Benz microfiber cloth. Parts should not be replaced under warranty. Care in cleaning dirty or spotted plastic interior trim parts (instrument panel, center console, door paneling etc.), is as follows:
Light Contamination:
Clean the plastic parts with a moist (use only clean water), fluff-free cloth (e.g. microfiber cloth)
Moderate Contamination:
Clean the plastic parts with a moist (use only clean water), fluff-free cloth (e.g. microfiber cloth). A small amount of non-abrasive hand cleanser can also be applied to the cloth.
Severe Contamination:
Clean the plastic parts with a moist (use only clean water), fluff-free cloth (e.g. microfiber cloth). Apply a solvent-free and non-corrosive cleaning agent to the cloth, we recommend the Mercedes-Benz cockpit-car care product for this.
Warning!
After cleaning, the surface can briefly assume another shading. In this case wait for the surface to dry.
Note:
No parts should be exchanged with reference to this condition!
