In the case of trailers with a stabilisation device against swerving, the trailer or trailer tow hitch could be damaged.
The vehicle and the trailer may be damaged during manoeuvring due to overhanging loads at the front of the trailer or drawbar installations.
Trailer Manoeuvring Assist assists you when reversing with a trailer. By means of a turning angle sensor in the trailer coupling, Trailer Manoeuvring Assist monitors the articulation angle between the vehicle and trailer and adjusts it to a specified value.
Trailer Manoeuvring Assist is only an aid. It is not a substitute for your attention to the surroundings. The responsibility for safe manoeuvring and parking remains with you. Make sure that there are no persons, animals or objects in the manoeuvring area while manoeuvring and parking in/exiting parking spaces.
You can either enter the articulation angle value directly via the multimedia system or use a straightening manoeuvre. When carrying out a straightening manoeuvre, the system calculates the articulation angle automatically and straightens the vehicle/trailer combination to the trailer's current direction.
Trailer Manoeuvring Assist must be taught-in before it can adjust the articulation angle More.
Observe the notes on towing a trailer More.
