Trailer towing
PARKTRONIC is deactivated for the rear area when you establish an electrical connection between your vehicle and a trailer.
Fold in the ball coupling if the trailer tow
hitch is not required. PARKTRONIC
measures the minimum detection range to coupling.
Vehicles with an exterior spare wheel:
Remove the detachable ball coupling if the trailer tow hitch is not required.
PARKTRONIC measures the minimum detection range to an obstacle from the bumper, not the ball coupling.
