iGross vehicle weight (GVW) is the vehicle
weight including fuel, service products, spare
wheel, accessories installed, load and, if
applicable, trailer drawbar load. The GVW
must never exceed the GVWR.
iThe GAWR is the maximum permissible axle
weight.
Vehicle data for off-road driving
Fording depth
!
The depth of water must not exceed the
value specified in the table. Note that the
possible fording depth is less in flowing water.
The table shows fording depth :when loaded
and ready to drive.

For more information about off-road fording, see
(Ypage 128).
Approach/departure angle
GWARNING
If you drive on a steep incline at an angle or
turn when driving on an incline, the vehicle
could slip sideways, tip and rollover. There is a risk of an accident.
Always drive on a steep incline in the line of
fall (straight up or down) and do not turn the
vehicle.
For vehicles with steel springs, loaded and ready
to drive means: a full tank, all fluids refilled and
the driver is in the vehicle.

Maximum gradient-climbing capabil-
ity
Note that the vehicle's gradient-climbing capa-
bility depends on the off-road conditions and theroad surface conditions.
On good road surfaces the maximum gradient-
climbing capability of your vehicle is 100%,

which corresponds to an approach/departure
angle of 45°.
Accelerate carefully and make sure that the
wheels do not spin when driving on steep ter-
rain.
iIf the load on the front axle is reduced when
pulling away on a steep uphill slope, the front
wheels have a tendency to spin. 4ETS detects
this and brakes the wheels accordingly. The
rear wheel torque is increased, making it eas-
ier to drive off.
For further information about the maximum gra-
dient climbing ability, see (
Ypage 132).
Trailer tow hitch
Permissible trailer load, braked (at a
minimum gradient-climbing capabil-
ity of 12% from a standstill)

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.
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 drawbar noseweight is not included in the
trailer load. Missing values were not available at time of
going to print.

weight

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.
