Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: Cleaning the wiper blades
WARNING 
Before cleaning the windshield or wiper
blades, switch off the windshield wipers and
remove the SmartKey from the ignition lock.
On vehicles with KEYLESS-GO, press the
Start/Stop button repeatedly until all
indicator lamps in the instrument cluster have
gone out. The windshield wipers could
otherwise move and injure you.
Do not pull the wiper blade. Otherwise,
the wiper blade could be damaged.
Do not clean wiper blades too often and
do not rub them too hard. Otherwise, the
graphite coating could be damaged. This
could cause wiper noise.
► Fold the wiper arms away from the
windshield.
► Carefully clean the wiper blades with a
damp cloth.
► Fold the windshield wipers back again
before switching on the ignition.
Hold the wiper arm securely when folding
back. The windshield could be damaged if
the wiper arm smacks against it suddenly.
