Safety First

Operating Instructions

Practical Tips

Technical Specifications

Always brake in due course. If the trailer has an 

overrun brake

, apply the 

brakes 

gently at first

 and then, firmly. This will prevent the jerking that can be 

caused by the trailer wheels locking. Select a low gear in due course before 
going down a steep downhill. This enables you to use the engine braking to 
slow down the vehicle.

Reheating

At very high temperatures and during prolonged slopes, driving in a low gear 
and high engine speed, always monitor the coolant temperature gauge 

⇒

page 49.

Electronic Stability Programme*

The ESP* system helps to stabilise the trailer in case of skidding or rocking.
