In winter operation, the maximum effectiveness of the
antilock brake system (ABS), the four wheel electronic
traction system (4-ETS), the electronic stability program
(ESP), and electronic brake booster (EBB) can only be
achieved with M+S rated radial-ply tires and /or snow
chains recommended by Mercedes-Benz. Snow chains
maximize performance.
For driving instructions using snow chains see
page 222.
Deep water
Caution!
Do not drive through flooded areas or water of unknown
depth. Before driving through water, determine its
depth. It should not be deeper than approximately
20 inches (50 cm).
If you must drive through deep water, drive slowly to
prevent water from entering the engine compartment or
passenger compartment, being ingested by the air
intake, possibly causing damage to electrical
components or wiring, to engine or transmission that is
not covered by the Mercedes-Benz Limited Warranty.
