end up in the wrong lane or leave the car- riageway. The trailer stability assist continually monitors the car's movements, particularly lateralmovements. If snaking is detected, the frontwheels are individually braked. This serves tostabilise the car/trailer combination. This isoften enough to help the driver regain controlof the car. If snaking is not eliminated the first time the trailer stability assist comes into action, thecar/trailer combination is braked with allwheels and engine power is reduced. Oncesnaking has been gradually suppressed andthe car/trailer combination is stable onceagain, the system stops regulating and thedriver once again has full control of the car.For more information, see Stability and trac-tion control system (DSTC) - operation (p.176)
MiscellaneousThe trailer stability assist can engage withinthe speed interval 60-160 km/h.
NOTE
TSA function is switched off if the driver selects Sport mode, see Stability and
traction control system (DSTC) (p. 175).
The trailer stability assist may fail to engage if the driver uses sudden steering wheel move-ments to try to rectify the snaking because in such a situation the system cannot determinewhether it is the trailer or the driver that iscausing the snaking.
When the trailer stability assist isworking, the combined instrument
panel's DSTC symbol flashes.

Manual gearboxPrior to towing:
–Move gear lever into neutral and release the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox GeartronicPrior to towing:
–Move the gear selector to position
N and
release the parking brake.
Automatic gearbox PowershiftThe model with Powershift transmission should not be towed as it is dependent on theengine running in order to receive sufficient lubrication. If towing still has to take place,the route must be as short as possible andthen with very low speed. In the event of uncertainty as to whether or not the car is equipped with Powershift trans-mission, this can be verified by checking thedesignation on the gearbox label under thebonnet, see Type designations (p. 386). Thedesignation ”MPS6” means that it isPowershift transmission - otherwise it isGeartronic automatic transmission.
IMPORTANT
Avoid towing.
• However, the car can be towed for a short distance at low speed to move itfrom a dangerous position - not furtherthan 10 km and not faster than10 km/h. Note that the car mustalways be towed with the wheels roll-ing forward.
• In the event of moving a longer dis-tance than 10 km, the car must betransported with the drive wheelsraised from the road - professionalrecovery is recommended.
Prior to towing:
–Move the gear selector to position
N and
release the parking brake.
Jump startingDo not tow the car to bump start the engine. Use a donor battery if the battery is dis-charged and the engine does not start, seeJump starting with battery (p. 270).
