DEF freezes at a
temp erature of appr ox‐
imately 12.2 °F (-11 °C). The vehicle is equip‐
ped with a DEF preheating sy stem at thefa c‐
to ry. This means that winter operation is also
ensured forte mp eratures below 12.2 °F
(-11 °C). If you add DEF at temp eratures
below 12.2 °F (-11 °C), the DEF le vel in the
instrument clus ter may not be displa yed cor‐
re ctly. If the DEF is frozen, drive for at least
20 minutes and then park theve hicle for a
minimum of 30 seconds, so that the le vel is
cor rectly displa yed. In extreme winter condi‐
tions, the time needed todetect theto p-up
amount may be considerably longer. Park the
ve hicle in a warm garage tospeed up this
process.

Sy stem limitations
Cruise control may be unable tomaintain the
st ored speed on uphill gradients. The stored
speed is resumed when the gradient evens out.
On long and steep downhill gradients, you should
ch ange down toa lo werge ar in good time. Take
particular no teofthis when driving a laden vehi‐
cle. By doing so, you will make use of the
engine's braking ef fect. This relie vesth e load on
th e brake sy stem and pr events the brakes from
ove rheating and wearing tooqu ickl y.
Do not use cruise control in thefo llowing situa‐
tions:
R In traf fic situations whe refrequent speed
ch anges are requ ired, e.g. in heavy traf fic or
on winding roads.
R On slippe ryroads. Accele rating can cause the
drive wheels tolose traction and theve hicle
could then skid.
R Ifyo u are driving when visibility is poor.

WARNING Danger of accident due to
unsuitable ball coupling
If yo u ins tall an unsuitable ball coupling, over‐
loading of the trailer hitch and rear axle will
be there sult. This is particularly the case if
th e ball coupling is relatively long or angled
dif fere ntl y.
The handling characteristics may be heavily
impaired and the trailer can become

R
The vehicle/trailer combination will ha vean
inc reased braking dis tance.
R The vehicle/trailer combination will be more
susceptible tocrosswind gu sts.
R The vehicle/trailer combination will requ ire
more sensitive steering.
R The vehicle/trailer combination will ha ve a

This may impair theve hicle's driving characteris‐
tics.
When driving with a vehicle/trailer combination,
alw ays adapt your speed tothe cur rent road and
we ather conditions. Drive carefull y.Ke ep a suf fi‐
cient safe dis tance.
Co mply withthe maximum speed of 49 mph
(80 km/h) or 62 mph (100 km/h), even in coun‐
tries in which higher speeds are permitted for
ve hicle/trailer combinations.
Comply with the legally prescribed maximum
speed forve hicle/trailer combinations in forc e in
th e count ry,st ate or Canadian pr ovince in ques‐
tion. Before driving, consult the trailer's vehicle
documents tosee the maximum permissible
speed foryo ur trailer.
At tach only an appr oved trailer hitch to yourvehi‐
cle. Use only a ball neck that has been appr oved
fo ryo ur vehicle. Further information about availa‐
bility and ins tallation of the trailer electrical sys‐
te m is available from any qualified specialist
wo rkshop.
The trailer hitch is one of the most impor tant
ve hicle parts forro ad saf ety. Comply with the
instructions on operating, maintaining and servic‐

Do not attach any rented trailer tow hit ches or
any other de tach able trailer tow hit ches tothe
bumpers.
% When using a trailer,
remember that
PA RKTRONIC is available only toa limited

% The ball head height will
change depending
on theve hicle's load. In this case, use a
trailer with a height-adjus table dr awbar.
Driving no tes
The maximum permissible speed forve hicle/
trailer combinations depends on the type of
trailer. Before driving, consult the trailer's vehicle documents
tosee the maximum permissible
speed foryo ur trailer.
Yo ur vehicle will act dif fere ntly wi tha trailer rela‐
tive towithout a trailer, and will consume more
fuel. In the case of a long and steep descent, you
must select shift range 3,2or 1in good time.
% This also applies if
the cruise cont rol is
switched on.
Yo u will thereby make use of the engine's braking
ef fect and will not ha vetobrake as of tento con‐

additional braking, depress the brake pedal inter‐
mittently rath er than continuousl y.
Driving tips
If th e trailer sw ays, remember thefo llowing
points:
R Do not accelerate under any circums tances.
R Do not counter steer.
R If necessar y,apply the brakes.
% Yo
u can pr eventthe trailer from sw aying and

R Maintain a lar ger dis tance than when driving
without a trailer.
R Avoid braking abruptl y.If possible, brake gen‐
