The maintenance documents contain instructions relating to carrying out maintenance and repair operations on Mercedes-Benz passenger cars. They are intended for the exclusive use of workshops affiliated to the Mercedes-Benz Organization. The instructions form the basis for proper and competent service and maintenance.
The nature in which the operations are described is based on the training standard of a fitter who has completed vocational training and has good knowledge of our products. This level of knowledge is essential for carrying out the described work.
Because our vehicles are being continuously developed and improved, the actual technical status of the vehicles and the work descriptions may differ.

Daimler AG reserves the right to make changes at any time and without prior notification.

If there are any remaining questions relating to repair procedures, please take up the matter with the respective contact person in the applicable national organization (for DCVD refer to valid Service Information Group 99). Further information about the breakdown and structure of the work descriptions and the meaning of the symbols (logos) can be found in the Workshop Information System (WIS).

Each individual maintenance operation described has a number which is in the head line.
There is also no number listed on the service sheet for maintenance operations not described.
