Practical hints
Towing the vehicle
G
i
!
When towing the vehicle with all wheels
on the ground, note the following:
Warning!
To signal turns while being towed with
hazard warning flasher in use, turn
SmartKey in starter switch to
position 2 and activate combination
switch for left or right turn signal in usu-
al manner – only the selected turn sig-
nal will operate.
With the engine not running, there is no
power assistance for the brake and steering
systems. In this case, it is important to keep
in mind that a considerably higher degree of
effort is necessary to brake and steer the ve-
hicle. Adapt your driving accordingly.
With the automatic central locking acti-
vated and the SmartKey in starter
switch position 2, the vehicle doors
lock if the wheels are turning at vehicle
speeds of approx. 9 mph (15 km/h) or
more.
Upon canceling the turn signal, the haz-
ard warning flasher will operate again.
i
To prevent the vehicle doors from lock-
ing, deactivate the automatic central
locking (୴ page 133).
The gear selector lever will remain
locked in position P and the SmartKey
will not turn in the starter switch if the
battery is disconnected or discharged.
See notes on the battery (୴ page 311)
or on jump starting (୴ page 313).
Towing of the vehicle should only be
done using the towing eye. Never at-
tach tow cable, tow rope or tow rod to
vehicle chassis, frame or suspension
parts.
