WARNING Risk of accident due to imper‐
missible retrofitting of a trailer tow hitch
If a trailer tow hitch has been retrofitted
impermissibly and you fit a trailer tow hitch or
other assembly parts, the longitudinal frame
member will be weakened and may break. In
this case, the trailer may come loose from the
vehicle.
There is a risk of an accident.
Only retrofit a trailer tow hitch if it is permis‐
sible.
Observe the notes on trailer operation
(
/
page 175).
Retrofitting a trailer hitch is only permissible if a
towing capacity is specified in your vehicle docu‐
ments.
You can obtain further information on the trailer
hitch at a qualified specialist workshop or on the
Internet at https://bb-portal.mercedes-
benz.com/portal/kat_iv.html?&L.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you have a
trailer hitch retrofitted at a Mercedes-Benz
Service Centre.
Only use a trailer hitch which has been tested
and specially approved by Mercedes-Benz for
your vehicle.
The maximum permissible towing capacity for
trailers without a separate braking system is
750 kg.
Trailer loads
When towing a trailer, the maximum permissible
gross vehicle weight is increased by 100 kg for
vehicles with passenger vehicle approval. The
maximum permissible rear axle load must be
observed. The road speed of the vehicle must be
limited to a maximum of 100 km/h, in accord‐
ance with Directive 92/21/EEC.
The permissible weights and loads which must
not be exceeded can also be obtained from the
following sources of information:
R
Vehicle documents
R
The identification plates of the trailer hitch,
trailer and vehicle
If the values differ, the lowest value applies.
Maximum tongue weight
The tongue weight must not exceed:
R
100 kg with a trailer load of 2000 kg
R
120 kg with a trailer load of 2800 kg or
3000 kg
R
140 kg with a trailer load of 3500 kg
Lashing points and carrier systems
Information about the lashing points
*
NOTE Risk of accident if the maximum
loading capacity of the lashing points is
exceeded
If you combine various lashing points to
secure a load, always take the maximum load‐
ing capacity of the weakest lashing point into
account.
During maximum full-stop braking, forces may
act which can multiply the weight of the load.
#
Always use several lashing points to dis‐
tribute and spread the load. Distribute
the load on the lashing points evenly.
Further information on the lashing points and tie-
down eyes can be obtained in the "Transporting"
section (
