Rear wiper blade
Warning!
G
For safety reasons, switch off wipers and 
remove SmartKey from starter switch 
(vehicles with KEYLESS-GO*: Make sure the 
vehicle’s on-board electronics have 
status 0) before replacing a wiper blade. 
Otherwise the motor could suddenly turn on 
and cause injury.
!
Hold on to the wiper when folding the wiper 
arm back. If released, the force of the impact 
from the tensioning spring could crack the rear 
window.
Do not allow the wiper arms to contact the rear 
window glass without a wiper blade inserted.
For your convenience, we recommend that you 
have this work carried out by an authorized 
Mercedes-Benz Light Truck Center.
Make sure the wiper blades are properly in-
stalled. Improperly installed wiper blades may 
cause rear window damage.
