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: 
Vehicles without headlamp cleaning 
system: approx. 4.8 US qt (4.5 l).
Vehicles with headlamp cleaning sys-
tem: approx. 7.4 US qt (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 premixed wind-
shield washer solvent/antifreeze, de-
pending on ambient temperatures).
Always use washer solvent/antifreeze 
where temperatures may fall below 
freezing. Failure to do so could result in 
damage to the washer system/reser-
voir.
More information can be found in the
