!
Performance testing must only be con-
ducted on a two-axle dynamometer.
Warning!

If you see the ESP warning lamp v flash-
ing in the speedometer dial, proceed as fol-
lows:
Otherwise the transfer case can be
damaged, which is not covered by the

The 4MATIC improves vehicle’s ability to
use available traction, e.g. during winter
operation in mountains under snowy con-
ditions, by applying power to all four
wheels.

While driving off, apply as little throttle
as possible

While driving ease up on the accelerator
Because of ESP’s automatic operation,
the engine must be shut off (key in
starter switch position 0 or 1) when
the parking brake is being tested on a
brake test dynamometer
Adapt your speed and driving style to
the prevailing road conditions
Failure to observe these guidelines could
cause the vehicle to skid.
The ESP cannot prevent accidents resulting
from excessive speed.
Active braking action through ESP may
otherwise seriously damage the front
or rear axle brake system.

Do not tow with one axle raised.
Operational tests with the engine
running can only be conducted on a
two-axle dynamometer.
Otherwise the transfer case can be
damaged, which is not covered by the
