The maintenance documents contain instructions relating to carrying out maintenance and repair operations on Mercedes-Benz passenger cars. 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.

If there are any unresolved questions regarding maintenance and repair procedures, please contact the responsible contact person in the respective national organization.

Each detailed description of a maintenance operation has a reference link, which is available in the fourth row in the service sheet.

A document exists for each reference link with instructions on how to conduct the maintenance operation.
