Permanent all-wheel drive
!
Never tow the vehicle with one axle raised.
This may damage the transfer case. Damage
of this sort is not covered by the Mercedes-
Benz implied warranty. All wheels must
remain either on the ground or be fully raised.
Observe the instructions for towing the vehi-
cle with all wheels in full contact with the
ground.
!
When testing the parking brake, operate the
vehicle only briefly (for a maximum of ten sec-
onds) on a brake test dynamometer. When
doing this, turn the key to position 0 or 1 in
the ignition. Failure to do this can cause dam-
age to the drive train or the brake system.
!
A function or performance test should only
be carried out on a twin-axle dynamometer.
Before you operate the vehicle on such a
dynamometer, please consult a qualified
workshop. You could otherwise damage the
drive train or the brake system.
The all-wheel drive system ensures that all four
wheels are permanently driven. The all-wheel
drive system improves vehicle traction together
with ESP
®
and 4ETS if a drive wheel spins due to
insufficient grip.
Only when you use winter tyres (M+S tyres) in
wintry driving conditions and, if necessary, snow
chains (
Y
page 237). Only in this way can the
maximum effect of all-wheel drive be achieved.
