The ball head is released in this position and falls freely into the hand. If it does
not fall freely into the hand, use your other hand to push it upwards.
At the same time, the ball head latches into the ready position and is thus ready
to be re-inserted into the mounting recess

WARNING
Never allow the ball head to remain unsecured in the boot. This could cause
damage in a sudden braking manoeuvre and put the safety of the occupants
at risk.
CAUTION
■
If the lever is held firm and not pushed downwards as far as it can go, it will go
back up after the ball head is removed and will not latch into the ready position.
The ball head then needs to be brought into this position before the next time it
is fitted.
■
Stow the ball head in the ready position with the key inserted in the box. When
doing so, make the side opposite to the inserted key face downwards – there is a
risk of damaging the key.
■
Do not use excessive force when handling the operating lever (e.g. do not step
on it).
Note
■
We recommend that you put the protective cap on the ball before removing the
ball head.
■
Clean any dirt from the ball head before stowing it away in the box with the ve-
hicle tool kit.
Use and care
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 117.
Close the mounting recess with the cap to prevent any ingress of dirt.
Always check the ball head before hitching a trailer. Apply a suitable grease
where necessary.
Fit the protective cap when stowing away the ball head to protect the luggage
compartment against dirt.
In the event of dirt, clean the surfaces of the mounting recess and treat with a
suitable preservative.
CAUTION
Apply grease to the upper part of the mounting recess. Make sure you do not re-
move any grease.

Always drive particularly carefully with the trailer.
Loading a trailer
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 120.
The vehicle/trailer combination must be balanced, whereby the maximum permis-
sible drawbar load must be utilised. If the drawbar load is too low, it jeopardises
the performance of the vehicle/trailer combination.
Distribution of the load
Distribute the load in the trailer in such a way that heavy items are located as
close to the axle as possible. Secure the items from slipping.
