Maneuvering area
The vehicle can go off course during the parking
process
> A\. If there are obstacles within the
maneuvering area that block or endanger the
parking process, for example on the opposite
side of the street, a message may appear. You
may need to drive farther forward and stay closer
to the row of parking spaces.

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 121.
— The driver is always responsible when enter-
ing or exiting a parking space and during
similar maneuvers.
— Sensors and cameras have spots in which
the surrounding area cannot be detected.
Objects, animals, and people may only be
detected with limitations may not be detect-
ed at all. Always monitor the traffic and the
vehicle's surroundings directly and do not
become distracted.

@) Note
— Parking spaces classified as suitable by the
system may have been detected incorrectly.
The driver must decide if the parking space
displayed is suitable for the vehicle.
— Certain conditions near the parking space
may cause the parking process to fail, such
as if the parking space is near trees or posts,
or if the ground is covered, for example,
with gravel, snow, or ice.
162
G) Tips
— If you did not drive past a suitable parking
space too quickly, the system can also be ac-
tivated afterward by pressing Pe.
— The Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC)
must not be switched off during the parking
process. If the ESC intervenes, the parking
process will be canceled.
— You can also drive into a perpendicular park-
ing space yourself and then activate the sys-
tem. If this is the case, the front of the vehi-
cle should already be in the space (4)
= page 161, fig. 139 so that the sensors
can measure the space.
— The system is not available when certain as-
sist systems are switched on.
— If there are suitable parking spaces on both
sides of the street, for example on a one-
way street, you can change the side where
the system is searching for parking spaces
by activating the turn signal for the other
side or by pressing on that side in the center
display.
— The park systems do not provide support for
assisted parking on tight curves.
Park assist
General information
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
The park assist helps you when parking and exit-
ing parking spaces after the parking space
search. The park assist takes over the steering of
the vehicle while the driver accelerates, brakes,
and
monitors the vehicle's surroundings. Park as-
sist can be interrupted at any time.

ZA\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 121.
— The driver is always responsible when enter-
ing or exiting a parking space and during
similar maneuvers.
— Do not use this function if the vehicle cannot
move freely, for example when on a vehicle
jack.

Parking and maneuvering


— Sensors and cameras have spots in which
the surrounding area cannot be detected.
Objects, animals, and people may only be
detected with limitations may not be detect-
ed at all. Always monitor the traffic and the
vehicle's surroundings directly and do not
become distracted.

() Note
— Do not use the park assist systems when
transporting cargo that extends out of the
vehicle, when snow chains are mounted, or
when the parking space is on a hill or in-
cline.
— Park assist guides the vehicle either away
from curbs or onto them if other vehicles
are parked on the curb. Make sure that your
vehicle's tires and rims are not damaged.
Resume control of the vehicle in time or
stop the parking process if needed to pre-
vent damage.
— In parking spaces without curbs, maintain a
distance of at least 19 inches (50 cm) from
walls and buildings in order to reduce the
risk of vehicle damage.
G) Tips
Follow the legal regulations in the country
where you are located when using Park assist.
PCa mV te Lee)
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
Requirement: a suitable parking space must be
found and selected > page 161. The vehicle must
initially be stationary.
> Select the reverse gear after stopping briefly.
> Remove your hands from the steering wheel.
>» Pay attention to the path of the vehicle. If the
traffic situation permits, accelerate carefully
>A.
> Follow the visual instructions in the center dis-
play and the warning tones until the parking
process has ended.
> The indicators in the center display show the
necessary direction of travel. Drive in the direc-
tion indicated by the arrows or symbols on the
roof in the parking aid image @ > page 161,
fig. 140.
Park assist automatically steers the vehicle into
the parking space while the driver presses the
pedals. The maximum parking speed is approxi-
mately 4 mph (7 km/h).

Z\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 121.
— The park assist is an assist system. The driv-
er is still responsible for monitoring the ve-
hicle's surroundings and preventing colli-
sions when using the system.
—When using park assist to drive into or out
of a parking space, the steering wheel turns
quickly on its own. Reaching into the steer-
ing wheel spokes while this is happening can
result in injury.
(i) Tips
You can also cancel the driving direction set
by the system by shifting between D and re-
verse gear. Based on the position of the vehi-
cle, the system then calculates the additional
steering and driving directions for maneuver-
ing.
Exiting parking spaces with park assist
Applies to: vehicles with park assist

If you parked the vehicle in a parallel parking
space, park assist can help you drive out of it.
> Start the engine.
> Press the P@ button in the center console.
> Wait until a message appears in the center dis-
play that specifies the direction of travel re-
quired to exit the parking space.
> Activate the turn signal on the desired side or
press that side next to the vehicle in the center
display.
> Remove your hands from the steering wheel.
>» Pay attention to the path of the vehicle. If the
traffic situation permits, accelerate carefully

Emergency assistance

Additional information on towing with a tow
truck
The vehicle may only be towed with the front axle
raised. Do not wrap any chains or cables around
the brake lines.
Tow bar and towing cable
The vehicle can be towed with a tow bar or tow-
ing cable. Both drivers should be familiar with
the special considerations when towing, especial-
ly when using a towing cable.
Always make sure the traction force does not ex-
ceed the permitted level and there are no shock
loading conditions. There is always the risk of the
coupling becoming overloaded when driving off-
road.
For the most safety and security, drive with a tow
bar. You should use a towing cable only if a tow
bar is not available. Use a towing cable made of
synthetic elastic cable similar elastic material.

ZA\ WARNING
— Towing highly increases the risk of an acci-
dent, for example from colliding with the
towing vehicle.
—To reduce the risk of an accident, do not al-
low anyone to remain inside the vehicle
when it is being transported by a tow truck
or a special transporter.

@) Note
— If normal towing is not possible, for exam-
ple if the transmission is faulty or if the
towing distance is greater than 30 miles
(50 km), then transport the vehicle ona
special carrier.
— If the vehicle is towed by a tow truck at the
axle that is not permitted, this can cause se-
vere damage to the transmission.
— The vehicle must not be tow started for
technical reasons.
G) Tips
— If the power supply is interrupted, then it
will not be possible to move the selector
lever out of the "P" position. The parking
lock must be released using the emergency
268
release before towing the vehicle
=>page 105.
— Follow the local legal regulations for tow-
ing.
Read and follow the important information under
=> page 267.
Preparations
> Only secure the towing cable or tow bar at the
designated towing loop > page 269.
> Make sure the towing cable is not twisted. Oth-
erwise it could disconnect from the towing loop
while towing.
> Switch the emergency flashers on in both
vehicles > page 57. However, do not do this if it
prohibited by law.
Towing vehicle (front)
> Only start to drive when the towing cable is
taut.
> Press the brake pedal very carefully.
> Avoid sudden braking or driving maneuvers.
Vehicle being towed (rear)
> Make sure the ignition is switched on so that
the steering wheel is not locked and so that you
can use the turn signals, the horn, and the
windshield wipers if needed > A\.
> Switching it off before the vehicle has stopped
may impair the function of the brake booster
and power steering. You would then need to
use more force to steer and brake the vehicle.
> Release the parking brake > page 110.
> Select the “N” selector lever position.
> Make sure the towing cable is always taut.

ZA WARNING
Never tow a vehicle using a tow bar or towing
cable if the vehicle does not have electrical
power.
