Towing the vehicle with both axles on

It is important that you observe the safety
instructions when towing away your vehicle
(

page 349).

WARNING
The power assistance for the steering and the
brake force booster do not work when the
engine is not running. You will then need
much more effort to brake and steer the vehi-
cle. Adapt your style of driving accordingly.
The automatic transmission automatically
shifts to position P when you open the driver's
or front-passenger door or when you remove
the key from the ignition lock. In order to
ensure that the automatic transmission stays
in position N when towing the vehicle, you
must observe the following points:
X
Make sure that the vehicle is stationary and
that the key in the ignition lock is in position
0.
X
Turn the key to position 2 in the ignition
lock.
On vehicles with KEYLESS-GO, use the key
instead of the Start/Stop button
(
Y
page 139).
X
Depress and hold the brake pedal.
X
Shift the automatic transmission to posi-
tion N.
X
Release the brake pedal.
X
Release the electric parking brake.
X
Switch on the hazard warning lamps
(
Y
page 109).
X
Leave the key in position 2 in the ignition
lock.
i
When towing with the hazard warning
lamps switched on, use the combination
switch as usual to signal a change of direc-
tion. In this case, only the turn signals for
the desired direction flash. When the com-
bination switch is reset, the hazard warning
lamps start flashing again.
Transporting the vehicle
The towing eyes or trailer tow hitch can be
used to pull the vehicle onto a trailer or trans-
porter if you wish to transport it.
X
Turn the key to position 2 in the ignition
lock.
X
Shift the automatic transmission to posi-
tion N.
