I/M 240 Emissions Testing on Dynamometer
2010 Mercedes Benz SL 550 (230.471) V8-5.5L (273.965) Page 52
The enhanced Inspection/Maintenance emission testing program (I/M 240) is in effect in several states.
It is recommended that all vehicles be tested on a 4-wheel dynamometer.
The following vehicle may be tested on a 2-wheel dynamometer:
^ Mercedes-Benz vehicles that are 2WD and not equipped with Acceleration Slip Regulation (ASR)
^ Mercedes-Benz Maybach and smart vehicles that are 2WD and have "Dyno-Mode" capability (must be activated)
The following vehicles must be tested on a 4-wheel dynamometer:
^ Mercedes-Benz vehicles equipped with ASR
^ Mercedes-Benz vehicles equipped with 4MATIC
^ Mercedes-Benz vehicles that are 2WD and do not have "Dyno-Mode" capability
Please see Attachment 1 for a list of vehicles that must be tested on a 4-wheel dynamometer.

Please see Attachment 2 for a list of vehicles with "Dyno-Mode" capability and the activation procedure.
According to US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) procedures, if an emissions inspector has difficulty performing the I/M 240 test on a
2-wheel dynamometer, the following should be considered:
^ Test the vehicle on a 4-wheel dynamometer, or
^ Perform an optional emission test at idle +2500 rpm
An emissions inspector should also consider the options above if they are uncertain about the Dyno-M ode activation procedure or is uncertain about
which vehicles can operate on a 2-wheel dynamometer.
