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.
C
Fording depth
On vehicles with the AIRMATIC package or the
Off-Road Engineering package, loads up to the
maximum permissible load have no influence on
fording capability.

Accelerate carefully and make sure that the
wheels do not spin when driving on steep ter-
rain.
i If 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 recog-
nizes this and brakes the wheels accordingly.
The rear wheel torque is increased, making it
easier to drive off.
For further information about the maximum gra-
dient climbing ability, see ( Y
page 171).

! If you have a trailer tow hitch retrofitted,
changes to the cooling system and drive train
may be necessary, depending on the vehicle
type.
If you have a trailer tow hitch retrofitted,
