when a bicycle rack isfitted. Adapt your driving st
yle according ly. Drive carefully and maintain a
sa fe dis tance.
When using a bicycle rack , set the tyre pressure
fo r maximum loading on there ar axle of the

can be found in the tyre pressure table
(/ page 526).
Note s on loading
The lar gerth e dis tance between the load's

Therefore, 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 evenly as possible across theve hicle's
longitudinal axis
Mercedes-Benz recommends removing all
