Towing with rear axle raised
! The vehicle may be towed only for
distances up to 30 miles (50 km) and at a
speed not to exceed 30 mph (50 km/h).
When towing the vehicle with the rear axle
raised, the wheels on the ground have to
move freely. Therefore follow the respective
steps below, after the rear axle being raised:
XSwitch on the hazard warning flasher
( Y page 252).XMake sure the transmission remains in
neutral position N. Observe instructions,
see “Shifting into neutral position N”
( Y page 263).!
Because the ESC operates automatically,
the engine and ignition must be shut off
(KEYLESS-GO start/stop button in position
0 or 1, or SmartKey in starter switch
position 0 or 1) when the electronic parking
brake is being tested on a brake test
dynamometer or when the vehicle is being
towed with the rear axle raised.
Active braking action through the ESC may
otherwise seriously damage the brake
system which is not covered by the
Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
! Keep in mind that it is important for the
SmartKey to be left in starter switch with
the ignition switched off. As soon as the
SmartKey is removed from the starter
switch the transmission will shift to park
position P.
Towing with all wheels on the ground
GWarning!
When there is a malfunction in the brake
system, the vehicle must be towed using a tow
bar.
Before towing make sure the steering wheel
is unlocked and can be moved.
The vehicle must not be towed when the
power supply or the vehicle’s electrical
system are malfunctioning.
GWarning!
While the vehicle is being towed,
R the engine may turn off
R the electrical system may fail
R the battery voltage may drop too far.
All or any of this will block the rear axle.
This could cause an accident and injure you
and/or others.
