Note
s on loads
The larger the dis tance between the load's
cent reof gr avity and the ball head, the greater
th e load on the trailer hitch.
Obser vethefo llowing no tes:
R mount heavy bicycles as close totheve hicle
as possible.
R always distribute the load on the bicycle rack
as eve nly as possible across theve hicle's
longitudinal axis.
Mercedes-Benz recommends removing all
de tach able parts from the bicycles, e.g. bask ets,
ch ild seats or batteries, before loading them
onto the bicycle rack . This impr ovesth e wind
re sis tance and centre of gr avity of the bicycle
ra ck.
Alw ays secure the bicycles toprev ent them from
moving around and check they are secured at
re gular inter vals.
Do not use tarp aulins or other co vers. The han‐
dling characteristics and rear view may be impaired. In addition,
the wind resis tance and
load on the trailer hitch increase. Distribution of
the load on the bicycle rack

The tyre pressure
table sho ws there commended
tyre pressure for all tyres appro vedfo rth is vehi‐
cle. The recommended tyre pressures apply for
cold tyres under various operating conditions,
i.e. loading and/or speed of theve hicle.
If one or more tyre sizes precede a tyre pres‐
sure, the tyre pressure information following is
only valid forth ose tyre sizes. If
th e preceding tyre sizes are complemented by
th e+ symbol, the tyre pressure information
fo llowing sho wsalternative tyre pressures.
These tyre pressures may impr oveyour vehicle's
ri de comfort. Fuel consum ption may then
increase slightl y.
The load conditions "partially laden" and "fully
laden" are defined in theta ble for dif fere nt num‐
be rs of passengers and amounts of luggage. The
actual number of seats may dif fer from this.
Be sure toalso obse rveth efo llowing fur ther

nction of the ty repressure moni toring sys‐
tem
The sy stem checks the tyre pressure of the tyres
fi tted totheve hicle bymeans of a tyre pressu re
sensor.
New tyre pressure sensors, e.g. in winter tyres,
are automatically taught-in thefirs t time they are
driven. The tyre pressure appears in
the multifunction
display (→ page247).
If th ere is a subs tantial pressure loss or if the
tyre temp erature is excessive, a warning will be
given:

R Viath eh warning lamp in the instrument
clus ter (→ page 508).
It is the driver's responsibility toset the tyre
