storage cover in the load
compartment 3 194 . The charge cord
is compatible with the domestic
electrical outlet of the respective
country. It includes a control box with
charging status indicators.
If the vehicle is to be used abroad,
check whether the wall plug of the
charge cord is compatible with the
local electrical outlets. If a different
charge cord is needed, consult a
workshop.
Important information about
portable electric vehicle charging
● Charging an electric vehicle can stress a building's electrical
system more than a typical
household appliance.
● Before you plug in to any electrical outlet, have a qualified
electrician inspect and verify the
electrical system (electrical
outlet, wiring, junctions and
protection devices) for heavy-
duty service at a 10 A continuous
load.
● Electrical outlets may wear out with normal usage or be
damaged over time, making them unsuitable for electric vehicle
charging.
● Check the electrical outlet / plug while charging and discontinue
use if the electrical outlet / plug is
hot, then have the electrical
outlet serviced by a qualified
electrician.● When outdoors, plug into an electrical outlet that is weather-
proof while in use.
● Mount the charging cord to reduce strain on the electricaloutlet / plug.9 Warning
Improper use of portable electric
vehicle charge cords may cause a fire, electrical shock, or burns, and
may result in damage to property,
serious injury, or death.
● Do not use extension cords, multi-outlet power strips,
splitters, grounding adaptors,
surge protectors, or similar
devices.
● Do not use an electrical socket that is worn or damaged, or onethat will not hold the plug firmly
in place.
● Do not immerse the charging chord into any liquid.

200Driving and operating● Do not use an electrical socketthat is not properly grounded.
● Do not use an electrical socket that is on a circuit with other
electrical loads.9 Warning
Read all the safety warnings and
instructions before using this
product. Failure to follow the
warnings and the instructions may result in electric shock, fire, and /
or serious injury.
Never leave children unattended
near the vehicle while the vehicle is charging and never allow
children to play with the charge
cord.
If the plug provided does not fit the electrical outlet, do not modify the
plug. Arrange for a qualified
electrician to inspect the electrical
outlet.
Do not put fingers into the electric
vehicle connector.

Check whether the connections
to the charge port and to the
electrical outlet are correct. Make
sure that the electrical installation and the charge cord are not
damaged.
If no status indicator comes on, verify the circuit breaker of the electrical
outlet:
● If the circuit breaker has broken, contact a qualified electrician to
verify the compatibility of the electrical installation and repair it.
● If the circuit breaker has not broken, the charge chord may bedefective. Do not use the charge
chord and contact a workshop.

Driving and operating205Trailer hitch
General information
Only use towing equipment that has
been approved for your vehicle. If
using non-factory fitted towing
equipment, deactivation of the hands- free tailgate operation may be
required 3 29.
Entrust retrofitting of towing
equipment to a workshop. It may be
necessary to make changes that
affect the cooling system, heat
shields or other equipment.
The bulb outage detection function for trailer brake light cannot detect a
partial bulb outage. E.g. in case of
four bulbs with a power of 5 W each,
the function only detects light outage
when only a single 5 W light remains
or none remain.
Trailers equipped with LED lights are
not suitable for the wiring harness of
this trailer hitch.
Fitting of towing equipment could
cover the opening of the towing eye.
If this is the case use the coupling ballbar for towing. Always keep the
coupling ball bar in the vehicle to have it on hand if needed.
Driving characteristics and towing tips
Before attaching a trailer, lubricatethe coupling ball. However, do not do
so if a stabiliser, which acts on the coupling ball, is being used to reduce
snaking movements.
During trailer towing do not exceed a
speed of 50 mph. A maximum speed
of 60 mph is only appropriate if an oscillation damper is used and the
permissible gross trailer weight does
not exceed the vehicle's curb weight.
For trailers with low driving stability
and caravan trailers, the use of an
oscillation damper is strongly
recommended.
If the trailer starts snaking, drive more slowly, do not attempt to correct the
steering and brake sharply if
necessary.
When driving downhill, drive in the
same gear as if driving uphill and
drive at a similar speed.Adjust tyre pressure to the value
specified for full load 3 266.
Trailer towing
Trailer loads The permissible trailer loads are
vehicle and engine-dependent
maximum values which must not be
exceeded. The actual trailer load is
the difference between the actual
gross weight of the trailer and the
actual coupling socket load with the
trailer coupled.
The permissible trailer loads are
specified in the vehicle documents. In general, they are valid for inclines up
to 12%.
The permissible trailer load applies
up to the specified incline and at sea
level. Since engine power decreases
as altitude increases due to the air
becoming thinner, therefore reducing
climbing ability, the permissible gross
train weight also decreases by 10%
for every 1000 m of altitude. The
gross train weight does not have to be

206Driving and operatingreduced when driving on roads with
slight inclines (less than 8%, e.g.
motorways).
The permissible gross train weight
must not be exceeded. This weight is
specified on the identification plate
3 256.
Vertical coupling load The vertical coupling load is the load
exerted by the trailer on the coupling
ball. It can be varied by changing the
weight distribution when loading the
trailer.
The maximum permissible vertical
coupling load (70 kg) is specified on
the towing equipment identification
plate and in the vehicle documents.
Always aim for the maximum vertical
coupling load, especially in the case
of heavy trailers. The vertical coupling
load should never fall below 25 kg.Rear axle load
When the trailer is coupled and the
towing vehicle fully loaded, the
permissible rear axle load (see
identification plate or vehicle
documents) may be exceeded by
60 kg , the gross vehicle weight rating
must not be exceeded. If the
permissible rear axle load is
exceeded, a maximum speed of
60 mph applies.
Towing equipmentCaution
When operating without a trailer,
remove the coupling ball bar.
Fitting the coupling ball bar
Disengage and fold down the socket. Remove the sealing plug from the
opening for the coupling ball bar and
stow it.

208Driving and operatingInsert the tensioned coupling ball bar
in the opening and push firmly
upwards until it audibly engages.
The rotary handle snaps back into its
original position resting against the
coupling ball bar without a gap.9 Warning
Do not touch rotary handle during
insertion.
Lock the coupling ball bar by turning
the key to position e. Remove the key
and close the protective flap.
Eye for break-away stopping cable
Attach breakaway stopping cable to
eye.
Check that the coupling ball bar is correctly installed
● Green marking on rotary knob must point towards green
marking on coupling ball bar.
● There must be no gap between the rotary handle and the
coupling ball bar.
● The coupling ball bar must be firmly engaged in the opening.
● The coupling ball bar must be locked and the key removed.9Warning
Towing a trailer is permitted only
when a coupling ball bar is fitted correctly. If the coupling ball bardoes not engage correctly, seekthe assistance of a workshop.
Dismounting the coupling ball bar
Open the protective flap and turn the
key to position c to unlock the
coupling ball bar.
Pull out rotary handle and turn
clockwise as far as it will go. Pull out coupling ball bar downwards.
Insert sealing plug in opening. Fold away socket.
