always distribute the load on the bicycle rack
as evenly as possible across the vehicle's
longitudinal axis
Mercedes-Benz recommends removing all
detachable parts from bicycles, e.g. baskets,
child seats or rechargeable batteries, before
loading them onto the bicycle rack. This will
improve the aerodynamic resistance and centre
of gravity of the bicycle rack.
Always secure the bicycles to prevent them from
moving around and check that they are secure at
regular intervals.
Do not use tarpaulins or other covers. The driv‐
ing characteristics and rear view may be
impaired. In addition, the aerodynamic resist‐
ance and the load on the trailer hitch will
increase.

Vehicle towing instructions
The vehicle is not suitable for the use of tow bar
systems that are used for flat towing or dinghy
towing, for example. Attaching and using tow bar
systems can lead to damage on the vehicle.
When you are towing a vehicle with tow bar sys‐
tems, safe driving characteristics cannot be
guaranteed for the towing vehicle or the towed
vehicle. The vehicle-trailer combination may
swerve from side to side. Comply with the per‐
mitted towing methods (
→
page 392) and the
instructions for towing with both axles on the
ground (
→
page 393).
