Gen
eral information i
When towing atrail er,s et the tyr epres-
sure on th erear axle of the towing vehicle
for am aximum load; se ethe tyr epressure
table in th efuel filler flap.
You will find installatio ndimensions and loads
in the "Technical data” section
(Y page 322).
The maximum permissible trailer drawbar
noseweight on the ball coupling is 75 kg.
However ,the actual noseweight must not
exceed the value given on the trailer tow hitch
and trailer identification plates. The lowest
weight applies.
! Use anoseweight as close as possible to
the maximum permissible noseweight .Do
not use anoseweight of less than 50 kg,
otherwise the trailer ma ycome loose.
Bear in min dthat the payload and the rear
axl eload ar ereduced by the actual nose-
weight.
Please not ethat when towing atrailer, PARK-
TRONIC (Y page 174) and parkin gguidance
(Y page 177 )are onl yavail ablew ith limita-
tions, or not at all.
i The height of the ball coupling changes
with the load of the vehicle. If necessary,
use atrailer wit haheight-adjustable draw-
bar.
Driving tips i
Observ ethe notes on ESP ®
trailer stabi-
lisation (Y page 58).
In Germany, the maximum permissible speed
for vehicle/ trailer combinations depends on
the type of trailer and is either 80 km/ hor
100 km/h. In some countries ,higher maxi-
mum speeds are permissible for vehicle/
trailer combinations. Befor ebeginnin gthe
journey ,check the trailer's documen tsto see
what the maximum permitted speed is.
For certain Mercedes-Benz vehicles, the max-
imum permissible rear axle load is increased
when towing atrailer. Refer to th e"Technical data
"section to fin dout whether this applies
to your vehicle. If you utilise any of the added
maximum rear axle load when towing atrailer,
th ev ehicle/ trailer combination may not
exceed amaximum spee dof100 km/h for
reasons concerning the operating permit.
This als oapplies in countries in which the
permissible maximum speed for vehicle/
trailer combinations is above 10 0km/h.
When towing atrailer, your vehicle's handling
characteristics wil lbedifferent in comparison
to when drivin gwithout atrailer.
Th ev ehicle/ trailer combination:
R is heavier
R is restricted in its acceleration and gradi-
ent-climbin gcapability
R has an increased braking distance
R is affected more by stron gcrosswinds
R demand smore sensitive steering
R consume smore fuel
On long and steep downhil lgradients ,you
must shift to alower gear in good time, or on
vehicles with automatic transmission ,select
the shift range 1,2or 3.
i This also applies if you have activated
cruise control, SPEEDTRONIC or DI S-
TRONIC PLUS.
This will use the brakin geffect of th eengine,
so les sbraking wil lberequired to maintain
the speed. This relieves the load on the brake
system and prevent sthe brakes from over-
heating and wearing too quickly .Ifyou need
additional braking, depress the brake pedal
repeatedly rather than con tinuously.
Driving tips R
Maintain agreater distance from th evehi-
cle in front than when driving without a
trailer.
R Avoid braking abruptly. If possible, brake
gently at first to allow the trailer to run on.
Then increase the braking force rapidly.
R The values given for gradient-climbing
capabilities from astandstill refer to sea 188

The tyre pressure values stored at the last

Tyres with aspecified direction of rotation
have additional benefits, e.g. if there is arisk
of aquaplaning. You will only gain these ben-
efits if the correct direction of rotation is
observed.
An arrow on the sidewall of the tyre indicates
its correct direction of rotation.
You may fit an emergenc yspare wheel/spare
wheel against the direction of rotation.
Observe the tim erestric tion on use as well as
the speed limitation specified on the emer-
genc yspare wheel/spar ewheel. Interchanging th
ewheels G
Ris
kofa ccident
Interchange the front and rear wheels only if
they have the same dimensions: for example
size, offset, etc.
After every wheel interchange/change, have
the tightening torque checked at aqualified
specialist workshop that has the necessary
specialist knowledg eand tool stocarry out
the work required. Mercedes-Benz recom-
mends that you use aMercedes-Ben zService
Centr efor this purpose. In particular ,work
relevant to safet yoronsafety-related sys-
tems must be carried out at aqualified spe-
cialist workshop.

Coolant
Important safety notes The coolan
tisamixture of water and anti-
freeze/corrosio ninhibitor. It performs the
following tasks:
R anti-corrosio nprotection
R antifreeze protection
R raising th eboiling point
i When the vehicle is first delivered, it is fil-
led with acoolant mixtur ethat ensures
adequate antifreeze and corrosion protec-
tion.
! Only top up with coolant that has been
premixed with the desired antifreeze pro-
tec tion. You coul dotherwis edamage the
engine.
Further information on coolants and on fill-
ing can be found in the Mercedes-Benz
Specifications for Service Products, MB
Approval 310.1 ,e.g. on the Internet at
http ://bevo.mercedes-benz.com .You can
also consult aMercedes-Benz Service
Centre.
! Alway suseasuitable coolant mixture,
even in countries where high temperatures
prevail.
Otherwise, the cooling system will not be
sufficiently protected from corrosion, and
the boiling point will be too low.
If antifreeze/corrosio ninhibitor is present in
the correc tconcentration, the boilin gpoint of
the coolant will be around 13 0†.
The antifreeze/ corrosion inhibitor con centra-
tion in the cooling system should:
R be at leas t50%. This wil lprotect the cooling
system against freezing down to around
37 †.
R not exceed 55% (antifreeze protection
down to -45 †); otherwise ,heat will not be
dissipated as effectively. If the vehicle has lost coolant, top it up with
equal amounts of water and antifreeze/cor-
rosion inhibitor. Mercedes-Ben
zrecom-
mends an anti freeze/cor rosion inhibitor
whic hhas been approved for Mercedes -Benz.
! The coolin gsystem is filled with coolant
which must be renewed after 15 years, or
after 250,000 km at the latest.
The warrant yisonly valid if you top up with
an antifreeze /corrosion inhibitor which
has been approved by Mercedes-Ben zand
