Driving on steep terrain
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings
Driving uphill or downhill
Get out of the vehicle and assess the situation before you attempt to drive up or down a hill:
Walk along the section and check the firmness of the ground. Look out for obstacles and other
hidden dangers
Check the section beyond the hill.
You should not follow the route if it is too steep, uneven or if the ground surface is too loose. Select
another route.
Drive slowly and at constant speed straight up or down a slope.
Accelerate only to the speed you need to climb the slope. Too much acceleration can cause the
wheels to spin and lead to a loss of control of the vehicle. Insufficient throttle increases the
probability of stalling the engine.
Never attempt to stop or turn on a slope.
Avoid allowing the engine to stall.
Do not change gear or engage the clutch when climbing a slope.
Use the offroad display Offroad display
If you cannot continue to drive up a hill
Never turn the vehicle around on an uphill gradient.
If the engine has stalled, depress the footbrake and start the engine again.
Select reverse gear and reverse back slowly in a straight line.
Use the foot brake to keep a constant speed until you have reached a safe place.
Driving downhill
Never exceed the tilt angle of the vehicle! If, in an emergency, you have to traverse the slope when
driving down it and the vehicle threatens to tip over, steer into the fall line immediately.
There is an increased risk of rolling over when driving downhill. Concentrate on steering the vehicle
when driving downhill in particular.
Use the offroad display on steep downhill stretches Offroad display
Drive down steep inclines in first gear.
Use the foot brake sparingly in order not to lose control of the vehicle.

Check the tyres, suspension struts and axles for damage and remove dirt, stones and other foreign
bodies from the tyre tread.

Inspect the vehicle underbody and remove all items that are jammed in the brake system, on the
wheels, in the running gear, in the exhaust system and in the engine, such as branches, leaves or
pieces of wood . If you see any damage or leaks, take your vehicle to a qualified workshop or seek
expert assistance.

Clean heavy soiling from the radiator grille and the vehicle underbody Vehicle care.

Check the engine compartment to see if any dirt is affecting engine operation In the engine
compartment.

Switch on TCS again Brake support systems.

WARNING
Objects caught underneath the vehicle underbody pose a danger. The vehicle underbody must
always be examined for trapped objects after every journey offroad.
Never drive if objects are trapped in the underbody, brake system, wheels, running gear, exhaust
system and engine.
Inflammable materials, e.g. dry leaves, could ignite on hot vehicle components. A fire can cause
serious injuries.
Trapped objects could damage the fuel lines, brake system, seals and other running gear
components. This could cause you to lose control of your vehicle and cause accidents.

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:

If you do not maintain the minimum distance to a vehicle in front and the difference in speed
between the vehicle in front and your own vehicle is so great that the braking action of the ACC is
insufficient, you are in danger of colliding with the vehicle in front. The braking distance is also
longer in rain and winter road conditions.
ACC may not be able to detect all driving situations correctly.
Always be prepared to brake the vehicle yourself.
Speed and distance control are overridden when you press the accelerator. ACC does not brake
automatically in this case.
Observe any country-specific regulations relating to the minimum distance.
Always set a larger distance in wet or snowy conditions or when visibility is poor.

Some settings can be stored in the user accounts of the personalisation function and therefore
change automatically when the user account changes Personalisation

bulb would cause the remaining fingerprint to evaporate and be deposited on the reflector. This will
impair the light output of the headlight.

After changing a bulb, check to ensure that the bulb is working properly. If the bulb is not working
properly, the bulb may not have been inserted properly, may have failed again, or the connector
may have been fitted incorrectly.

Any time you change a bulb at the front of the vehicle, the headlight settings should be checked by a
qualified workshop.

WARNING
Ignoring any of the items on this important safety checklist can lead to accidents and severe injuries.
