4MATIC (permanent four-wheel drive)

If you fail to adapt your driving style, 4MATIC

can neither reduce the risk of accident nor

override the laws of physics. 4MATIC cannot

take account of road, weather and traffic con-

ditions. 4MATIC is only an aid. You are

responsible for the distance to the vehicle in

front, for vehicle speed, for braking in good

time and for staying in your lane.

If a drive wheel spins due to insufficient grip:

R

Only depress the accelerator pedal as far as

necessary when pulling away.

R

Accelerate less when driving.

!

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 Limited Warranty. All

wheels must remain either on the ground or

be fully raised. Observe the instructions for

towing the vehicle with all wheels in full

contact with the ground.

i

In wintry driving conditions, the maximum

effect of 4MATIC can only be achieved if

you use winter tires (M+S tires), with snow

chains if necessary.

4MATIC ensures that all four wheels are per-

manently driven. Together with ESP

®

, it

improves the traction of your vehicle when-

ever a drive wheel spins due to insufficient

grip.

PARKTRONIC

Important safety notes

PARKTRONIC is an electronic parking aid with

ultrasonic sensors. It monitors the area

around your vehicle using six sensors in the

front bumper and six sensors in the rear
