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 an obstacle from the bumper, not the ball
coupling.
