Specic features of driving with a trailer
If your trailer has an overrun brake, brake
gently at rst and then rapidly. This will prevent
the jerking that can be caused by the locking
of trailer wheels.
Due to the gross combination weight of the
towing vehicle and trailer, the braking distance
increases.
When going down a slope, engage a lower
gear (with a manual gearbox, or use the auto-
matic gearbox's tiptronic mode) to use engine
braking. Otherwise, the brake system could
overheat and even fail.
The trailer weight, as well as the gross combi-
nation weight of the towing vehicle and trailer,
change the centre of gravity and the proper-
ties of the vehicle.
If the towing vehicle is empty and the trailer
is loaded, then the load distribution is incor-
rect. Under these conditions, drive slowly and
with extra caution.
Hill starts with a trailer
Depending on the slope of the hill and the
combination weight of the towing vehicle and
trailer, the vehicle might start rolling backwards
slightly when you rst start up.
For hill starts with a trailer hitched:
Press and hold the brake pedal.
Press the button to disconnect the elec-
tronic parking brake ›››page172.
Automatic gearbox: Move the selector lever
to the D/S position.
Pull out the button and hold it in that posi-
tion to stop the towing vehicle and trailer with
the electronic parking brake.
Release the brake pedal.
Move o slowly.
Do not release the button until the engine
has suicient power to start driving.
WARNING
If a trailer is pulled incorrectly, this may lead
to loss of control of the vehicle and serious
injury.
Driving with a trailer and transporting
heavy or large objects will change the vehicle
handling and braking distances.
Always drive cautiously and carefully. Brake
earlier than usual.
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and traf-
c conditions. Slow down, especially when
driving down hills or slopes.
Accelerate with particular care and cau-
tion. Avoid sudden braking and manoeuvres.
Take great care when overtaking. Reduce
speed immediately if you notice that the
trailer is swaying, however slightly.
Never attempt to “straighten” the towing
vehicle and trailer while accelerating.
Take into account the speed limit for vehi-
cles with a trailer, as it could be lower than for
vehicles without a trailer.
Stabilisation of the towing vehicle
and trailer combination
The stabilisation of the vehicle and trailer com-
bination is an additional function of the elec-
tronic stability control (ESC).
If the system detects that the trailer is weav-
ing, it intervenes to reduce the swaying of the
trailer.
Vehicle and trailer combination stabilisation
requirements
The vehicle is factory-equipped with a tow-
ing bracket or has been retro-tted with a
compatible towing bracket.
The ESC and TCS are active. The control
lamp or is not lit up on the instrument
cluster.
The trailer is connected to the towing vehicle
through the trailer power socket.
The vehicle is travelling at over 60km/h (ap-
prox. 37mph).
The maximum vertical load technically per-
missible is not being exceeded on the coupling
device.
