Note
s on all-wheel drive All-wheel drive ensures permanent drive
for all
fo ur wheels, and toget her with ESP ®
it impr oves
th e traction of theve hicle.
The traction contro l ofthe all-wheel drive also
ta ke s place via the brake sy stem. Therefore, the
brake sy stem can overheat during extreme off-
ro ad use. In this case, ease off the accelerator
pedal or stop toallow the brake sy stem tocool
down.
If a driven wheel spins due toinsuf ficient trac‐
tion, obser vethefo llowing no tes:
R When pulling away, make use of the traction
cont rol integrated in ESP ®
. Depress the
accelerator pedal as far as necessar y.
R Take your foot off the accelera tor pedal,
slowly, while theve hicle is in motion.
In wintry driving conditions, alw ays use winter
tires (M+S tires) and, if necessar y,snow chains
(/ page 233). Only in this wa y can the maximum
ef fect of all-wheel drive be achie ved.
Use DSR (Downhill Speed Regulation) when driv‐
ing downhill off-road (/ page120).
If yo ufa ilto adapt your driving style or if you are
inat tentive, the all-wheel drive sy stem can neither
re duce therisk of an accident nor override the
la ws of ph ysics. The all-wheel drive sy stem can‐
not take road, weather and traf fic conditions into
account. The all-wheel drive sy stem is only an
aid. You are responsible for maintaining a safe
dis tan ce from theve hicle in front, forve hicle
speed, for braking in good time and forst ay ing in

Regulation) Note
s on DSR If
yo ufa ilto adapt your driving style or you are
inat tentive, DSR can nei ther reduce therisk of
accident nor override the la wsof ph ysics. DSR
cannot take road, weather and traf fic conditions
into account. DSR is only an aid. You are respon‐
sible for a safe dis tancetotheve hicle in front, for
ve hicle speed and for braking in good time.
DSR supports you when driving downhill. DSR
main tains a set speed foryo u on downhill gradi‐
ents byapplying the brakes as required. Main‐
ta ining the speed is dependent on thero ad sur‐
fa ce conditions and the downhill gradient and
cann ottherefore be guaranteed in all situations.
Yo u can set the speed depending on thege ar
ra nge tobetween 2 mph (4 km/h) and 11mph
(18 km/h) using the brake and accelera tor pedals
or therock er switch on thesteering wheel.
DSR automatically cont rols in thefo llowing situa‐
tions:
R Ifth eve hicle is stationar y,or its speed is less
th an 2 mph (4 km/h) , the speed is set to
2 mp h (4 km/h) or it is set tothe minimum
speed forth ere spective gear range.
R Ifyo u drive fasterthan 11mp h (18 km/h) off-
ro ad, DSR swit ches tostandby mode. DSR
re mains activated, but does not brake auto‐
matical ly.
R Ifyo u drive downhill slo werth an 11mph
(18 km/h), DSR sets the speed tothe pr evi‐
ously set speed. R
Ifyo u drive fasterthan 28 mph (45 km/h),
DSR switches off automaticall y. Ac

The cur rent speed is stored. When stationar y,
2 mp h (4 km/h) or the minimum possible

If yo u park a vehicle with air suspension, the
air suspension may remain activated for up to

Driving with a lo wered or raised chassis may
greatly impair braking and handling charac‐

WARNING Risk of accident from mal‐
function of electronic le vel control
If elect ronic le vel control is malfunctioning,
th eve hicle le vel may be asymmetrical, too

le ve l may be lo wered. #
Pay attention tothero ad conditions and
ensure there is suf ficient ground clear‐
ance. #
Drive carefully. The le
vel of theve hicle depends on vehicle load
and the load distribution. Elect ronic le vel control
adjusts the le vel of there ar axle automatically on
ve hicles with an air-sprung rear axle. The vehicle
le ve l is thereby alw ays maintained at the driving
le ve l,re ga rdless of vehicle load. Driving dynamics
re main unaf fected. The height dif fere nce
between the sides of theve hicle may be up to
0.4 in (1 cm). Electronic le
vel control is not engine-dependent
and is only operational when the ignition is
switched on. The electronic le vel control com‐
pressor works audibl y.
% If
th e compressor works cons tantly or starts
up se veral times per minute, elect ronic le vel
control is malfunctioning.
Depending on theve hicle equipment, electronic
le ve l control switches between manual and auto‐
matic mode depending on either theve hicle
speed or the position of the parking brake.
If electronic le vel control switches depending on
ve hicle speed, manual operation is automatically
activated when theve hicle is stationar y.Yo u may
ra ise or lo werth eve hicle le vel. If you subse‐
qu ently drive faster than 6 mph (10 km/h), man‐
ual mode is automatically deactivated and auto‐
matic mode sets theve hicle le vel.
If elect ronic le vel control switches depending on
th e parking brake position, manual mode is auto‐
matically activated when the parking brake is
applied. You may raise or lo werth eve hicle le vel
to load and unload. If youre lease the parking
brake, manual mode is automatically deactivated
and automatic mode sets the driving le vel.
When working on theve hicle or changing a
wheel, you can deactivate electronic le vel control
(/ page 123).
If electronic le vel control is malfunctioning or the
ve hicle le vel is too high or too lo w,an audible sig‐
nal sounds.
The driving and steering characteristics of the
ve hicle will be noticeably dif fere nt. Electronic
le ve l control adjusts theve hicle le velto the nor‐
mal le vel as soon as possible. Continue driving
carefully until the audible signal stops. Only then
is theve hicle at normal le vel.
Au tomatic mode and electronic le vel control
automatically switch on again torestore theve hi‐
cle le vel, depending on the option selected:
R when the parking brake is released
R from speeds of appr oximately 6 mph
(10 km/h)
If th e electronic le vel control compressor thre at‐

If yo u activate or deactivate the all-wheel drive in
a ve hicle with this option, ASR will be deactivated
fo rth e duration of the activation/deactivation
process.
Ve hicles without steering wheel but tons: if
ASR is malfunctioning, the00E5 indicator lamp
lights up while the engine is running and the
engine output may be reduced (/ page 23).
ASR impr oves traction, i.e. the transfer of po wer
from the tires tothero ad sur face, for a sus tained
period and, thereb y,also impr ovesth e driving
st ability of theve hicle. If the driving wheels start
to spin, ASR brakes individual drive wheels and
limits the engine torque. ASRthus significantly
assists you when pulling away and accelerating,
especially on wet or slippe ryroads.
If traction on thero ad sur face is not suf ficient,
eve n ASR will not allow youto pull away without
dif ficulty. The type of tires and totalwe ight of the
ve hicle as well as the gradient of thero ad also
play a crucial role.
If ASR inter venes, the00E5 warning lamp in the
