Towing the vehicle
Mercedes-Benz recommends that the
vehicle be transported with all wheels off
the ground using flatbed or appropriate
wheel lift/dolly equipment. This method is
preferable to other types of towing.
When circumstances do not permit the
recommended towing methods, the
vehicle may be towed with all wheels on
the ground or front wheels raised (except
vehicles with 4MATIC) only so far as neces-
sary to have the vehicle moved to a safe
location where the recommended towing
methods can be employed.
Warning!

This is necessary to adequately control the

Do not tow with one axle raised. Doing so could
damage the transfer case, which is not covered
by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
Vehicles with 4MATIC:
Prior to towing the vehicle with all wheels on
the ground, make sure the SmartKey or
SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO* (Canada only)
is in starter switch position 2.
To prevent damage during transport, do not tie
down vehicle by its chassis or suspension parts.
Switch off the ESP® (୴ page 63) and the auto-
matic central locking (୴ page 173).
All wheels must be on or off the ground. Observe
instructions for towing the vehicle with all
wheels on the ground.
