with a shackle in theve hicle.
R Make sure that loads and items of luggage
are securely stored or lashed down
(/ page 72).
R Before driving off-road, stop theve hicle and
engage a low gear.
R Vehicles with DSR: activate DSR when you
are driving downhill (/ page120).
R All-wheel drive vehicles: activate the all-
wheel drive (/ page119) and, if necessa ry,
activate theLO W RANGE transmission ratio
(/ page 119).
R Ifth e sur face requ ires, temp orarily deactivate
ASR when pulling away ( /page 119).
R Only drive off-road with the engine running
and a gear engaged.
R Drive slowly and smo othly. Wa lking pace is
necessary in many situations.
R Avoid spinning the driven wheels.
R Always ensure that the wheels remain in con‐
ta ct wi th the ground.
R Exercise the utmost caution when driving
across unfamiliar, unpredictable terrain. As a
precaution, getout of theve hicle totake a
look at thero ute tobe take nfirs t.
R Look out for obs tacles (e.g. rocks, holes, tree
st umps and tire ruts).
R Avoid edges where the sur face could crumble
or break away.

Checklist af ter driving off-road
If yo ufind damage totheve hicle af ter off-road
driving, ha vetheve hicle checked at a qualified
specialist workshop immediatel y.
Driving overro ugh terrain places greater
demands on your vehicle than normal road opera‐
tion. Check your vehicle af ter driving on rough
te rrain. This allo wsyouto detect damage
prom ptly and reduce therisk of an accident for
yo urself and other road users. Clean your vehicle
th oroughly before driving on public roads.
Obse rveth efo llowing points af ter driving off-
ro ad, on con stru ction sites and before driving on
public roads:
R Vehicles with DSR: deactivate DSR
(/ page 120).
R All-wheel drive vehicles: deactivate the all-
wheel drive (/ page119).
R Activate ASR (/ page 119).
R Clean theex terior lighting, particular lythe
headlamp s andtail lamps, and check them
fo r dama ge.
R Clean the front and rear license plates.
R Clean the windshield, windo wsand outside
mir rors.
R Clean thesteps, entra nces and grab handles.
This increases the saf ety of your foot ing.
R Clean the wheels and tires, wheel wells and
th e underbody of theve hicle with a water jet. 11 2

Flammable material such as lea ves, grass or

In particular, do not park on dry grass‐
land or har vested grain fields. If
th eve hicle is predominantly used for short dis‐

th is could lead toa malfunction in the automatic
cleaning function forth e diesel particulate filter.
As a result, permanent blocking of the diesel par‐
ticulate filter may occur and fuel may also accu‐
mulate in the engine oil and cause engine failure.
If yo u main lydrive short dis tances, you should

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

Drive carefully. The le

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

Depending on theve hicle equipment, electronic
le ve l control switches between manual and auto‐

If electronic le vel control switches depending on

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.
