WARNING Risk of accident and inju ryif
th eto ngue weight is exceeded
The car rier sy stem may de tach from theve hi‐
cle, thereby endangering other road users. #
Always comply with the permissible
to ngue weight when using a car rier. Yo
u can find specifications rega rding the ball
neck on the trailer's identification plate. You can
fi nd specifications rega rding the trailer on the
to wing vehicle's identification plate and in the
Te ch nical Data (/ page 277).
Yo u can attach car rier sy stems such as a bicycle
ra ck or load-bearing implement tothe ball nec k.
When using car rier sy stems on the ball nec k,the
maximum load capacity is 75kg.
If th e trailer coupling is de tachable, it is essential
to comply wi th the operating instructions of the
trailer coupling manufactu rer.
Place your vehicle/trailer combination on sur fa‐
ces that are as even as possible and secu reit
against rolling away ( /page 150). Couple and
uncouple the trailer carefull y. No
tethefo llowing rega rding theto ngue weight:
R Make full use of the maximum tongue weight,
where possible.
R Neverfa ll below a legally prescribed minimum
to ngue weight; theto ngue weight must
alw ays be positive.
R Do not exceed or fall below the permissible
to ngue weights – this must be obser ved dur‐
ing loading and unloading of the trailer.
Do not exceed thefo llowing values:
R Perm itted braked or unbraked towing capa‐
city
The maximum permissible towing capacity for
unbraked trailers is 750kg.
R Perm issible rear axle load of theto wing vehi‐

R Maximum permissible speed of the trailer
The releva nt pe rmitted values, which must not be
exc eeded, can be found in thefo llowing places:
R Inyour vehicle documents
R Onthe identification plate of the trailer hitch
R Onthe trailer's identification plate
R Ontheve hicle identification plate
If th ere are discrepancies between theva lues, the

Before driving off, ensure thefo llowing:
R The tyre pressure on there ar axle of theto w‐

R The headlamps ha vebeen set cor rectl y.
Comply with the maximum permissible speed of
80 km/h or 100 km/h, even in countries in
which higher speeds are pe rmitted forve hicle/
trailer combinations.
% During trailer operation,
remember that
PA RKTRONIC is available only toa limited
ex tent, if at all.
% The height of
the ball head will change
depending on theve hicle's load. In this case,
use a trailer with a height-adjus table dr aw‐

Driving and pa rking

Note
s on loading guidelines &
DANG ER Risk of exhaust gas poisoning
Combustion engines emit poisonous exhaust
ga ses such as carbon monoxide. Exhaust
ga ses can enter theve hicle interior if theta il‐
gate is open when the engine is running,
especially if theve hicle is in motion. #
Always switch off the engine before
opening theta ilgate. #
Never drive with theta ilgate open. &
WARNING Risk of injury from unsecured
objects in theve hicle
When objects are unsecured or inadequately
secured, they can slip, tip over or be thro wn
about, striking vehicle occupants.
This also applies to:
R luggage or loads
R seats which ha vebeen remo ved and are
being transpor ted in theve hicle in an
exc eptional case
There is a risk of injur y,particularly in the
ev ent of braking manoeuvres or abrupt
ch anges in direction. #
Alwaysstow objects in such a wayth at
th ey cannot be tossed about. #
Before tr avelling, secure objects, lug‐
ga ge or load topreve ntthem slipping or
tipping over. #
When a seat is remo ved, keep it prefera‐
bly outside theve hicle. &
WARNING Risk of accident due toincor‐
re ctly positioned load
The centre of gr avity of the load can be too
high and/or toofa rto wa rdsth ere ar.
This can significantly impair handling as well
as steering and braking characteristics. #
Always make sure that the cent reof
gr av ity of the load is between the axles
and as low as possible near there ar
axle. &
WARNING Risk of accident due to
exc eeding the permissible wheel/axle
loads or the gross vehicle weight
The driving characteristics, as well as steering
and braking, may be greatly impaired. Over‐
loaded tyres may overheat and bur stas a
consequence. #
When transpo rting a load, alw ays
obser vethe permissible wheel loads,
axle loads and the maximum permissi‐
ble gross mass forth eve hicle (including
occupants). &
WARNING Risk of injury if unsuitable
climbing aids are used
In theev ent that you use openings in the
bodywork or attachments as steps, you
could:
R Slip and/or fall.
R Damage theve hicle and thus slip and fall. #
Always use non-slip, stable climbing
aids, e.g. a suitable ladder. *
NO
TEDama gecaused bythe use of
openings in the bodywork or de tach able
part as a step Using
the lo wer guide of the sliding door (car‐
ri age) as a step can damage the trim and/or
mechanism of the sliding door. #
Do not use the guide of the sliding door
(car riage) as a step. If
yo u are using a roof luggage rack , please no te
th e maximum roof load and the maximum load
capacity of thero of luggage rack ( /page 278).
The handling characteristics of your vehicle are
dependent on the load distribution.
Therefore, please obser vethefo llowing no tes
when loading:
R the load must not pr otru de abo vethe upper
edge of the seat backrests.
R if possible, alw ays transport the load in the
load compartment.
R fastenthe load tothe tie-down eyes and dis‐
tribute the load evenly among them. 212

During maximum full- stop braking, forc es may
act which can multiply thewe ight of the load. #
Always use se veral lashing points todis‐

Distribute the load on the lashing points
eve nly. Obser
vethe information relating tothe maximum
loading capacity of the lashing points
(/ page 278).
As the driver, you are responsible for ensuring the
fo llowing:
R The load is secured against slipping, tipping,
rolling or falling off.
Ta ke usual traf fic conditions as well as swerv‐
ing or full brake application and bad roads
into account.
R The applicable requ irements and guidelines
re lating toload-securing practices are met.
If th is is not the case, this may const itute a
punishable of fence, depending on local legis‐ lation and any ensuing conse
quences.
Obser vecountr y-specific la ws.
Make sure that the load is secure before every
jou rney and at regular inter vals during a long
journe y.Ad just the load securing as necessar y.
Information on how tosecure loads cor rectly can
be obtained from the manufacturers of the load
securing aids or lashing material for load secur‐

Also obse rveth e no tes on loading guidelines
(/ page 212).
When securi ng loads, obser vethefo llowing:
R Fill spaces between the load and the load
compartment walls or wheel wells. Forth is
purpose, use rigid load securing aids, such as
ch oc ks,wo oden fixings or padding.
R Attach secured and stabilised loads in all
directions.
Use the lashing points or the tie-down eyes
and guide rails in there ar compartment.
Only use lashing materials, such as lashing
nets and lashing stra ps, which ha vebeen tes‐
te d in accordance with cur rent standards
(e.g. DIN EN). Alw ays use the lashing points
closest tothe load and pad sharp edges.
