Towing bracket device*
Stabilisation of the towing vehicle and
trailer
The stabilisation of the towing vehicle and
trailer together is an additional function of
the electronic stability control (ESC).
If the system detects that the trailer is sway-
ing, it intervenes automatically with the driv-
er steering recommendation to reduce the
swaying of the trailer.
Requirements for the stabilisation of the
towing vehicle and trailer
The vehicle is factory-equipped with a
towing bracket or has been retro-fitted with
a compatible towing bracket.
The ESC and ASR are active. The control
lamp or is not lit up on the instrument
panel.
The trailer is electrically connected to the
towing vehicle through the trailer power
socket.
The vehicle is travelling at over 60 km/h
(approx. 37 mph).
The maximum vertical load technically
permissible is being utilised on the coupling
device.
The trailer has a rigid draw bar.
If the trailer has brakes, it must be equip-
ped with a mechanical overrun brake.
WARNING
The enhanced security provided by the
electric stability control of the towing vehi-
cle and trailer should not lead you to take
any risks that could compromise your safe-
ty.
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and
traffic conditions.
Accelerate with caution when the road is
slippery.
When adjusting any settings, stop accel-
erating.
WARNING
The electric stability control for the towing
vehicle and trailer may not correctly detect
all driving conditions.
When the ESC is switched off, the stabili-
sation of the towing vehicle and trailer is al-
so switched off.
The stability system does not always de-
tect light and unstable trailers, so it may not
stabilise these correctly.
When driving on slippery surfaces with
poor grip, the trailer can even interfere with
the stability system.
Trailers with a high centre of gravity can
tip even without having previously swayed.
If a trailer is not attached, but the trailer
power socket is connected (e.g. installation
of a bicycle rack with lights), repeated au-
tomatic braking may occur in extreme driv-
ing conditions.
