Batteries contain materials that can harm 
the environment if disposed of improperly. 
Recycling of batteries is the preferred 
method of disposal. Many states require 
sellers of batteries to accept old batteries 
for recycling.
Windshield washer system and 
headlamp cleaning system
Fluid for the windshield washer system and 
the headlamp cleaning system is supplied 
from the windshield washer reservoir. It 
has a capacity of approx. 7.1 US qt. (6.7 l).
During all seasons, add MB Windshield 
Washer Concentrate “S” to water. Premix 
the windshield washer fluid in a suitable 
container.
Refill the reservoir with MB Windshield 
Washer Concentrate and water (or 
commercially available pre-mixed 
windshield washer solvent/antifreeze, 
depending on ambient temperatures).

voir.
