Towing the Vehicle






Warning!
Prior to towing the vehicle with all wheels on the ground, make
certain that the electronic key is in steering lock position 2.
If the electronic key is left in the steering lock position 0 for
an extended period of time, it can no longer be turned in the
lock. In this case, the steering is locked. To unlock, remove
electronic key from steering lock and reinsert.


Important !
When towing the vehicle, please, note the following:
With the automatic central locking activated and the electronic key inn steering lock position 2, the vehicle
doors lock if the left front wheel as well as the right rear wheel are turning at vehicle speeds of approx. 9 mph (15
km/h) or more. To prevent the vehicle door locks from locking, deactivate the automatic central locking.


All except C 43 AMG
The rear towing eye is located at the right, below the bumper. The front towing eye is located on the passenger side
behind a cover in the bumper panel.

We recommend that the vehicle be transported using flat bed equipment. This method is preferable to other types of
towing. The vehicle may be towed with all wheels on the ground and the selector lever in position "N" for distances up
to 30 miles (50 km) and at a speed not to exceed 30 mph (50 km/h). The electronic key must be in steering lock
position 2. To positively avoid a possibility of damage to the transmission, however, we recommend to disconnect the
drive shaft at the rear axle drive flange on any towing beyond a short tow to a nearby garage. Do not tow with sling-
type equipment. Towing with sling-type equipment over bumpy roads will damage radiator and supports. Use wheel
lift, dolly, or flat bed equipment, with electronic key in steering lock turned to position 0.


Warning !
With the engine not running, there Is no power assistance for the braking and steering systems.
In this case, it is important to keep in mind that a considerably higher degree of effort is necessary
to brake and steer the vehicle.


Note:
To signal turns while being towed with hazard warning flasher in use, turn electronic key in steering lock
to position 2 and activate combination switch for left or right turn signal in usual manner - only the
selected turn signal will operate. Upon cancelling the turn signal, the hazard warning flasher will operate again.
