CARessentials CARessentials Maintaining a bright outlook. Headlights guide you while on the road, so it’s highly important to keep them in perfect condition, shining bright and clear to provide vital illumination along the way. Here are a few tips on how to maintain a bright outlook. How to keep your headlights in the finest condition? After a few years of ownership, you may notice that your car’s headlights have started to dim, and may not illuminate the road as brightly as before. The lens might start to look a bit hazy, or the bulbs might require replacement. Ineffective headlights can become a safety hazard, as they significantly reduce the amount of light that can be projected, compromising visibility at night. Headlight lenses become hazy for a number of reasons, but mainly as a result of being exposed to the elements. The lenses come with a clear coat of protection, but this is worn away over time by dirt and dust particles that are picked up while driving. Plus, there is oxidisation from ultra-violet (UV) rays. As a result, the headlights may end up turning yellow or foggy, and that affects the light being projected through them. In addition to that, the watertight seals around the headlights may become damaged due to wear and tear, allowing water droplets to enter the lens and causing internal condensation, which might impair the light’s effectiveness. As for headlight bulbs, in general, they will require replacing with time. Even if they still light up, it does not mean that they will be working in tip-top condition. For this reason, we highly recommend checking on your headlights regularly to ensure that they still provide optimal illumination. This can be done every time you wash or service your car; just switch them on while parked in a dark place to see how far the lights illuminate. Taking care of your headlights’ lenses is as simple as giving them a good wash. Clean each lens with soap to remove the layer of built-up dirt that has accumulated on the surface. You can also polish them gently, by using a non-abrasive polishing product and a soft microfibre cloth. For hazy headlights, simple solutions like using toothpaste or sandpaper to polish the lens may work if the deterioration is not too serious. However, do take caution when doing so, as applying excessive pressure while polishing may cause damage to your headlights instead. As for replacing a bulb, be careful not to accidentally break a bulb holder or rip a seal, and always take precautions when dealing with electricity. In fact, for headlights that require repairs or restoration, such as those with broken seals or need to be cleaned from the inside, it is advisable to drive your car to the nearest Mercedes-Benz Cycle & Carriage Authorised Service Center. Our technicians have the required skills to not only restore your headlights to their original condition, but also to ensure that your Mercedes-Benz receives the treatment it deserves. Only the utmost care and attention from a Mercedes-Benz Cycle & Carriage Authorised Service Center can live up to the same manufacturing standards that you first fell in love with. The best way of nurturing that love, is to only allow the best hands to work on your vehicle.

CARextra CARextra Complimentary Nitrogen Gas Refill. From F1 cars, to commercial and military aircraft, to even space shuttles, nitrogen has long been relied on to fill the tyres of high-performance transport. Your Mercedes-Benz deserves the same. Visit our Mercedes-Benz Drive-in Tyre and Battery Shops and enjoy a complimentary Nitrogen Gas Refill. It’s fast, easy, hassle-free and the best part of all: no appointment required. Plus, nitrogen is safer and more cost-effective. Please see all the benefits of nitrogen below: • Less maintenance - Since nitrogen molecules are bigger than air molecules, nitrogen-inflated tyres maintain pressure three to four times longer. Hence, you won’t have to refill your tyres as often as you normally do. In fact, one nitrogen refill can go for as long as 4 to 6 months. • Longer tyre life - The bigger molecules of nitrogen help maintain tyre pressure and minimise the problem of under- inflated tyres. This in turn, results in reduced tread wear and long tyre life. • Increased fuel economy - Nitrogen is lighter than air. That’s why nitrogen can keep tyre pressure consistent and the recommended “contact patch” on the road longer, reducing rolling resistance for better fuel economy. • Better comfort - Nitrogen-inflated tyres run at a more consistent temperature than air-inflated tyres, which help to maintain a more even tyre pressure, and hence, optimal contact between the tyres and the road is maintained. Also, you will enjoy better stability, improved car handling and enhanced ride comfort, especially on longer journeys. The Art of Servicing at Cycle & Carriage.
