Secure the tow rope or tow bar to the towing
eye only. Otherwise, the vehicle could
become damaged.
! When Active Brake Assist, Active Distance
Assist DISTRONIC or the HOLD function is
activated, the vehicle brakes automatically in
certain situations.
To avoid damage to the vehicle, deactivate
these systems in the following or similar sit-
uations:
R when towing the vehicle
R in the car wash
! Do not use the towing eyes for recovery pur-
poses as this could damage the vehicle. If in
doubt, recover the vehicle with a crane.
! When towing, pull away slowly and
smoothly. If the tractive power is too high, the
vehicles could be damaged.
! Shift the automatic transmission to position
005C and do not open the driver's or front-
passenger door when towing the vehicle
away. Otherwise, the automatic transmission may shift to position 005Dwhich can cause
damage to both vehicles.
! Do not tow with sling-type equipment. This
could damage the vehicle.
! You may tow the vehicle for a maximum dis-
tance of 30 miles (50 kilometers). A towing
speed of 30 mph (50 km/h) must not be
exceeded.
For towing distances over 30 miles
(50 kilometers), the entire vehicle must be
raised and transported.
! Observe the transmission fluid temperature
(AMG menu) in the on-board computer when
towing. The transmission oil temperature
must not exceed 250 ‡ (120 †). If this
occurs, you must stop towing immediately.
! Tow-starting the vehicle is not permitted.
The transmission may otherwise be damaged.
Also observe the following notes:
R If the engine does not start, try jump-starting
it (Y page 256). Tow-starting the vehicle is not
permitted.
R If it is not possible to jump-start the vehicle,
have it transported to the nearest qualified
specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized
Mercedes-Benz Service Center. If the vehicle can no longer be driven because of
an accident or breakdown, you have the follow- ing options:
R Transporting the vehicle.
As a rule, you should have the vehicle trans-
ported.
R Towing the vehicle with a tow rope or tow bar.
Only tow the vehicle in exceptional cases. The
engine must be running if you tow the vehicle with a tow rope or tow bar.
If the vehicle has suffered transmission damage, have it transported on a transporter or trailer.
Observe the display messages in the instrument
cluster.
The battery must be connected and charged.
Otherwise, you:
R will not be able to switch on the ignition with
the Start/Stop button
R cannot start the engine
R cannot release the electric parking brake.
R cannot shift the automatic transmission to
position 005C
Disarm the automatic locking feature before the vehicle is towed (Y page 73). You could other-
wise be locked out when pushing or towing the
vehicle. Permitted towing methods
Mercedes-Benz recommends transporting your
vehicle in the case of a breakdown, rather than
towing it away.
When towing away, use a towing rope or a tow-
ing bar with both axles on the ground. Do not use any tow bar systems. Installing/removing the towing eye
Installing the towing eye The bracket for the screw-in towing eye is
behind the radiator trim.
