less braking will be required to maintain vehicle

WARNING
The braking system can overheat if yo ulea ve
your foo tonthe brake peda lwhile driving.
Thi sincreases the braking distance and could
eve ncause the braking system to fail. There is

Never us ethe brake peda lasafootrest. Do
not simultaneousl ydepress both the brake
peda land the accelerato rpedal whiledriving.
! Depressing the brake peda
lconstantly
results in excessive and premature wear to
the brake pads.
If heavy demands are made on the brakes, do
not park the vehicl eimmediately. Driv eonfor a
short while. Thi sallow sthe airflow to cool the
brakes more quickly.
If the brakes have been used onl ymoderately,
yo us houl doccasionall ytest thei reffectiveness.
To do this, brake more firmly from ahigher

ditions. Thi simprove sthe gri pofthe brakes.

Important safety notes i
RACE START must not be used on normal
roads. RACE START must only be activated
and used on dedicated road circuits, outside
of public road use.
i RACE START is only available in
Mercedes‑ AMG vehicles.
RACE START enables optimum acceleration
from astandin gstart .For this, asuitably high-
grip road surface is required, along with the
tyres and vehicle being in good condition. G
WARNING
If you use RACE START, individual tyres may
get into aspin and the vehicle could skid.
Dependin gonthe selected ESP ®
mode, there
is an increased risk of skidding and having an accident .Make sure that no persons ,animals
or obstacles are within range of the vehicle.
i Observe the safety notes on driving safety
systems (Y page 66).
Be sure to read the safety notes and informa-
tion on ESP ®
(Y page 71).
Activation conditions You can activat
eRACE START if:
R the doors are closed
R the engine is running and it has reached an
operating temperature of approximately
71 †. This is the case when the oil tempera-
ture gauge in the multifunction display is
shown in white.
R the drive program S,S+ orRace is selected
(Y page 154)
R the steerin gwheel is in the straight-ahead

Only release the ball coupling if the pivoting
range is unobstructed. Alwaysm ake sure that
the ball coupling engages when folding in.
When reversing the vehicle towards the trailer,
make sure there is nobody between the trailer
and the vehicle.
Couple and uncouple the trailer carefully.Ify ou
do not couple the trailer to the towing vehicle
correctly, the trailer could become detached.
When towing atrailer, your vehicle's handling
characteristics will be different in comparison to when driving without atrailer.
The vehicle/trailer combination:
R is heavier
R is restricted in its acceleration and gradient-
climbing capability
R has an increased braking distance
R is affected more by strong crosswinds
R demands more sensitive steering
R has alarger turning circle
This can impair the vehicle's handling charac-
teristics. Adapt your driving style accordingly.
Maintain asafe distance. Drive carefully.
When towing atrailer, always adjust your speed
to the current road and weather conditions. Do
not exceed the maximum permissibles peed for
your vehicle/trailer combination. Notes on towing
atrailer
General notes Trailer towing is not permissibleont
he following
models:
R Mercedes AMG C63
R Mercedes AMG C63S
When towing atrailer, set the tyre pressure on
the rear axle of the towing vehicle for the max-
imum load. Further information on the tyre pres-
sure table in the fuel filler flap (Y page 356).
On vehicles without level control, the height of
the ball coupling will alter according to the load
placed on the vehicle. If necessary, use atrailer
with aheight-adjustable drawbar.
You will find fitting dimensions and loads under "Technical data" (Y page 378). Driving tips Observe the notes on ESP
®
trailer stabilisation
(Y page 74).
The maximum permissibles peed for vehicle/
trailer combinations depends on the type of
trailer. Before beginning the journey, check the
trailer's documents to see what the maximum
permitted speed is. Observe the legally prescri-
bed maximum speed in the relevant country.
For certain Mercedes-Benz vehicles, the maxi-
mum permissibler ear axle load is increased
when towing atrailer. See the "Technical data"
section to find out whether this applies to your
vehicle (Y page 378). If you utilise any of the
added maximum rear axle load when towing a
trailer, the vehicle/trailer combination may not
exceed amaximum speed of 100 km/h for rea-
sons concerning the operating permit. This also applies in countries in which the permissible
maximum speed for vehicle/trailer combina-
tions is above 100 km/h.
When towing atrailer, your vehicle's handling
characteristics will be different in comparison to
when driving without atrailer and it will con-
sume more fuel.
Change into alower gear in good time on long
and steep downhill gradients.
This also applies if cruise control, DISTRONIC
PLUS or SPEEDTRONIC are activated.
This will use the braking effect of the engine, so
less braking will be required to maintain vehicle speed. This relieves the load on the brake sys-
tem and prevents the brakes from overheating
and wearing too quickly. If you need additional
braking, depress the brake pedal repeatedly
rather than continuously.
Driving tips If the trailer swings from side to side:
X Do not accelerate.
X Do not countersteer.
X Brake if necessary.
R Maintain agreater distance to the vehicle in
front than when driving without atrailer.
R Avoid braking abruptly.Ifp ossible,brake gen-
tly at first to allow the trailer to run on. Then,
increase the braking force rapidly.
R The valuesg iven for gradient-climbing capa-
bilities from astandstill refer to sea level.
