coupling
When mounting a caravan coupling, see the vehicle documents for in-
formation on maximum nose weight and caravan load.
Retighten the caravan coupling fixing screws after 1000 operating
hours.
The bike rack and caravan coupling may not be used simultaneously.
Have your authorised dealer or authorised service centre install the add-
on parts. They will also take care of all the formalities for you.
Observe the manufacturer's instruction manual.

3.5 Entrance
steps
Before commencing the journey and after short interruptions of the
journey, ensure that the entrance step is completely retracted.
Do not stand in the direct range of the entrance step while it is being
retracted or extended.
Do not step on the entrance step until it has extended completely.
There is a risk of injury!
To prevent danger of slipping, clean the entrance step if necessary
before entering (snow, ice, mud, etc.).
Do not under any circumstances raise or lower persons or loads with
the entrance step.
Following a cold start, for vehicle-related reasons it can take a few
seconds before the warning tone sounds.
Do not grease or lubricate the pivot bearing and joints of the entrance
step (see chapter 11).
