Index23
Vehicle occupants could be struck in the
event of sudden braking or an accident, for
instance, if you:
Rtransport other heavy or sharp-edged
objects in the skibag
Rdo not secure the skibag with the lashing
straps
There is a risk of accident and injury.
Store only skis in the skibag. Always secure
the skibag with the lashing straps so that it
cannot move around.
A maximum of four pairs of skis or two snow-
boards can be transported in the ski and snow-
board bag.
Securing the ski/snowboard bag in the
cargo compartment
XFold the middle rear seat backrest forwards
(Ypage 276).
XSlide the ski and snowboard bag between the
two outside rear seat backrests. Ensure that
the wheels of the ski/snowboard bag are in
the cargo compartment.
XOpen the ski/snowboard bag with zip :and
place the skis or snowboards inside it.
XClose the ski and snowboard bag.
XPull tensioning strap ;tight by the loose end
until the skis or snowboards are held firmly
inside the ski/snowboard bag.
XEngage tensioning strap =in a diagonal pat-
tern on hooks ?in cargo tie-down rings Aas
shown.
EASY-PACK Quickfold rear bench seat
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If the rear bench seat/rear seat and seat
backrest are not engaged they could fold for-
wards, e.g. when braking suddenly or in the
event of an accident.
RThe vehicle occupant would thereby be
pushed into the seat belt by the rear bench
seat/rear seat or by the seat backrest. The
seat belt can no longer offer the intended
level of protection and could even cause
injuries.
RObjects or loads in the trunk/cargo com-
partment cannot be restrained by the seat
backrest.
There is an increased risk of injury.
Before every trip, make sure that the seat
backrests and the rear bench seat/rear seat
are engaged.
!When folding the rear seat backrest for-
wards, ensure that there are no items lying on the seat cushions. These items could other-
wise be damaged or could themselves dam-
age the rear seats.
Observe the loading guidelines (
Ypage 273).
The outside and the middle rear seat backrests
can be folded down separately to increase the
cargo compartment capacity. The division ratio
is 40/20/40.

Maximum drawbar noseweight
!Use a drawbar noseweight as close as pos-
sible to the maximum permissible nose-
weight. Do not use a noseweight of less than
50 kg, otherwise the trailer may come loose.
Note that the payload and the rear axle load
are reduced by the actual payload.
Towing a trailer is not possible with all models.
Further information (
Ypage 198). The drawbar load reduces the permissible over-
all load and rear axle load.
The drawbar load acts from above onto the ball
head on the trailer tow hitch.
The trailer drawbar noseweight is not included in
the towing weight.
ModelPermissible nose-
weight
All models280 lbs (127 kg)
The actual noseweight may not be higher than
the value which is given. The value can be found
on the trailer tow hitch or trailer identification
plates. The lowest weight applies.
The maximum permissible trailer drawbar nose-
weight is the maximum weight with which the
trailer drawbar can be loaded. The permissible
trailer drawbar noseweight is the limit for
Mercedes-Benz-approved trailer couplings.
