<When special tool MB992273 is used>

1. Sufficiently apply the brake cleaner to the plug end.

NOTE: Repeatedly applying the brake cleaner is acceptable 
during the cleaning.

2. Using special tool MB992273, intensively clean the 

electrode for 1 to 2 minutes.
NOTE: Even if using strong force, the electrode is not dam-
aged.
NOTE: In case of insufficient cleaning, it is permissible to 
take longer than 2 minutes for cleaning.

3. After the cleaning, sufficiently remove and then dry both of 

the carbon and the brake cleaner on the plug, using a waste 
cloth or air blowing.
