The detection of vehicles may be impaired in the cas eof:
R dirt on the sensors or obscured sensors
R poor visibility ,e.g.d ue to rain, snow or spray
Vehicles in the monitoring rang eare then not

X
Position the trailer horizontally behind the
vehicle.
X Couple up the trailer.
X Establish the electrical connection between
the vehicle and the trailer.
X Check that the trailer lighting system is work-
ing.
X Push the combination switch upwards/down-
wards
X Check whether the corresponding turn signal
on the trailer is flashing.
Ac onnected trailer is only detected when the
electrical connection is established correctly
and when the lighting system is working prop- erly. The function of other systems, such as
ESP ®
,P ARKTRONIC, Active Parking Assist,
Active Blind Spot Assist or Lane Keeping

atrailer G
WARNING
If you uncouple atrailer with an engaged over-
run brake, you could trap your hand between
the vehicle and the trailer drawbar. This poses ar isk of injury.
Do not uncouple atrailer with an engaged
overrun brake. G
WARNING
Vehicles with level control:
If you disconnect the trailer cable, the vehicle is lowered. This can cause you or others to
become trapped between the vehicle body
and tyres, or underneat hthe vehicle. This
poses arisk of injury.
Make sure that no-one is in the immediate
vicinit yofthe wheel arch or underneat hthe
vehicle when disconnectin gthe trailer cable.
! Do not disconnect
atrailer with an engaged
overrun brake. Otherwise, your vehicle could
be damaged by the rebounding of the overrun
brake.
! Remove the installed adapter cable before
folding in the ball coupling. Otherwise, dam-
age may occur to the rear bumper and the
adapter cable. X
Make sure that the transmission is in position

X Apply the electric parking brake.
X Secure the trailer against rolling away.
X Remove the trailer cable and decouple the
trailer. Trailer power supply
! You can connect accessories to the perma-
nent power supply up to amaximum of 240 W.
You cannot charge atrailer battery using the
power supply.
When it leaves the factory, your vehicle's trailer
socket is equipped with apermanen tpower
supply and apower supply that is switched on
via the ignition lock.
The permanen tpower supply is supplied via
trailer socket pin 9.
The power supply that is switched on via the
ignition lock is supplied via trailer socket pin 10.
The trailer's permanen tpower supply is
switched off in the event of low vehicle supply
voltage and after six hours at the latest.
You can find more information about fitting the
trailer electric sataqualified specialist work-
shop.
X To switch the connected power supply on
or off: turn the key to position 2or 0respec-
tively (Y page 145). Failure check for LEDs
If LED lamps are fitted in the trailer, amalfunc-
tion message may appear in the multifunction
display even if there is no fault. The reason for
the error message may be that the curren thas
fallen below the minimum of 50 mA.
To ensure reliable operation of the failure indi-
cator, each LED chain in the trailer lighting must
be guaranteed aminimum curren tof50mA. Trailer with 7-pin connector
