Do not drive on unknown terrain that is not

easily visible and stay on marked routes.

Always keep the doors and windows closed

while the vehicle is in motion.

Deactivate Active Distance Assist DISTRONIC

and cruise control.

Adapt your driving style to the terrain.

Do not use the HOLD function on steep

downhill or uphill gradients with slippery or

loose surfaces.

Driving on sand

When driving on sand, also observe the following

instructions:

Shift to a lower gear.

Drive quickly to overcome the rolling resist‐

ance, otherwise the vehicle may dig itself in.

Drive in the tracks of other vehicles if possi‐

ble. Make sure that the following prerequi‐

sites are met:

The tire ruts are not too deep

The sand is firm enough

The ground clearance is sufficient

Lower the tire pressure in all four wheels.

Contrary to the information on the tire pres‐

sure plate (fuel filler flap), you can lower the

tire pressure to 120 kPa (1.2 bar/17. 4 psi).

Mercedes-AMG vehicles: observe the notes in

the Supplement. Otherwise, you may fail to rec‐

ognize dangers.

Once you stop driving on sand, immediately

increase the tire pressure again.

You can find information on tire pressure for

the vehicle's factory-installed tires on the

following labels:

Tire and Loading Information placard on

the B‑pillar of your vehicle (/ page 391).

Tire pressure table on the inside of the

fuel filler flap (/ page 387).

Fording

Also observe the following information when

fording:

Drive at no more than 6 mph (10 km/h).

Observe the maximum permissible fording

depth (/ page 424).

Before fording, shift the transfer case to the

LOW RANGE off-road gear (/ page 149).

Switch off automatic climate control

(/ page 126).

Ensure that a bow wave does not form as you

drive.

Do not stop in the water and do not switch

off the engine. Ensure the ECO start/stop

function is switched off (/ page 140).

Driving in mountainous terrain

Also observe the following information when

driving in mountainous terrain:

Observe the values of the approach/depar‐

ture angle and of the maximum gradient

(/ page 424).

Engage the differential locks if necessary

(/ page 151).

Avoid high engine speeds.

Use the braking power of the engine when

driving downhill.

Shift to a lower gear on uphill gradients and

on long, steep downhill gradients.
