Trailer Hitch - Mercedes-Benz S-Class 2020 Owner's Manual

If the manoeuvring brake function is triggered,
the following symbol appears in red in the selec‐
ted view in the Camera & parking
%
If the manoeuvring brake function is not
available, the same symbol appears in grey.
If the Camera & parking menu is not opened

The manoeuvring brake function is only an aid. It
is not a substitute for your attention to the sur‐
roundings. The responsibility for safe manoeu‐
vring and parking remains with you. Make sure
that no persons, animals or objects etc. are in
the manoeuvring range.
& WARNING Risk of accident caused by
limited detection by the manoeuvring

always clearly detect people. Other obstacles
are not detected by the function.
In these cases, the function may brake
unnecessarily or not brake at all.
Always pay careful attention to the traf‐
#
fic situation; do not rely on the manoeu‐
vring brake function alone.
Be ready to brake.
