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
usual manner – only the selected turn
signal will operate.
Upon canceling the turn signal, the
hazard warning flasher will operate
again.
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.
i
To prevent the vehicle doors from lock-
ing, deactivate the automatic central
locking (୴ page 141).
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.

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.
