Transfer case
This section is only valid for vehicles with 4-wheel drive (4MATIC). Power is always trans-mitted to both axles.
!Performance tests may only be carried outon a 2-axle dynamometer. The brake systemor transfer case could otherwise be damaged.Contact a qualified specialist workshop for aperformance test.
!Since ESP®engages automatically, the igni-tion must be switched off (the SmartKey orStart/Stop button must be in positionZorG) if
Rthe electrical parking brake is being testedusing a dynamometer
Rthe vehicle is being towed with only oneaxle raised (not permitted for vehicles with4MATIC)
Otherwise, the brake system can be dam-aged.
!Vehicles with 4MATIC must not be towedwith either the front or the rear axle raised, asdoing so will damage the transmission.
Refueling
Important safety notes
GWARNING
Fuel is highly flammable. Risk of fire and
explosion by improper handling of fuel.
You must avoid fire, open flames, smoking
and creating sparks. Switch off the ignition
before refueling and, if present, switch off the
auxiliary heating.
GWARNING
Fuel is poisonous and hazardous to health.
There is a risk of injury.
You must make sure that fuel does not come
into contact with your skin, eyes or clothing
and that it is not swallowed. Do not inhale fuel
vapors. Keep fuel away from children.
If you or others come into contact with fuel,
observe the following:
RWash away fuel from skin immediately
using soap and water.

Driving and parking

For safety reasons, Mercedes-Benz recom-mends only installing the following brake disksand brake pads/linings:
Rbrake disks that have been approved byMercedes-Benz
Rbrake pads/linings that have been approvedby Mercedes-Benz or that are of an equivalentstandard of quality
Other brake disks or brake pads/linings cancompromise the safety of your vehicle.
Always replace all brake disks and brake pads/linings on an axle at the same time. Alwaysinstall new brake pads/linings when replacingbrake disks.
The vehicle is equipped with lightweight brakedisks to which the wheel assembly with rim andthreaded connection is matched.
The use of brake disks other than thoseapproved by Mercedes-Benz can change thetrack width and is subject to approval, if appli-cable.
Shock-type loads when handling the brakediscs, such as when changing wheels, can leadto a reduction in comfort when driving with light-weight brake discs. Avoid shock-type loads onthe lightweight brake disks, particularly on thebrake plate.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you only usebrake fluid that has been specially approved foryour vehicle by Mercedes-Benz, or which corre-sponds to an equivalent quality standard. Brakefluid which has not been approved forMercedes-Benz vehicles or which is not of anequivalent quality could affect your vehicle'soperating safety.
Driving on wet roads
Hydroplaning
If water has accumulated to a certain depth onthe road surface, there is a danger of hydro-planing occurring, even if:
Ryou drive at low speeds
Rthe tires have adequate tread depth
For this reason, in the event of heavy rain or inconditions in which hydroplaning may occur,you must drive in the following manner:
Rlower your speed
Ravoid ruts
Ravoid sudden steering movements
Rbrake carefully
Driving on flooded roads
!Bear in mind that vehicles traveling in frontor in the opposite direction create waves. Thismay cause the maximum permissible waterdepth to be exceeded.
Failure to observe these notes may result indamage to the engine, electrical systems andtransmission.
If you have to drive on stretches of road on whichwater has collected, please bear in mind that:
Rin the case of standing water, the water levelmay be no higher than the lower edge of thevehicle body
Ryou should drive no faster than walking pace
Winter driving
GWARNING
If you shift down on a slippery road surface in
an attempt to increase the engine's braking
effect, the drive wheels could lose their grip.
There is an increased danger of skidding and
accidents.
Do not shift down for additional engine brak-
ing on a slippery road surface.
GDANGER
If the exhaust pipe is blocked or adequate
ventilation is not possible, poisonous gases
such as carbon monoxide (CO) may enter the
vehicle. This is the case, e.g. if the vehicle
becomes trapped in snow. There is a risk of
fatal injury.
If you leave the engine or the auxiliary heating
running, make sure the exhaust pipe and area
around the vehicle are clear of snow. To
ensure an adequate supply of fresh air, open a
window on the side of the vehicle that is not
facing into the wind.
Have your vehicle winter-proofed at a qualifiedspecialist workshop at the onset of winter.
Drive particularly carefully on slippery road sur-faces. Avoid sudden acceleration, steering and
