Important safety notes G
WARNING
Lane Keeping Assist cannot alway sclearly
identify lane markings.
In these cases, Lane Keeping Assist may:
R give an unnecessary warning
R not give awarning
There is arisk of an accident.
Always pay particular attention to the traffic
situation and keep in lane, especially if Lane
Keeping Assist alerts you. G
WARNING
The Lane Keeping Assist warning does not
return the vehicle to the original lane. There is ar isk of an accident.
Always steer, apply the brakes or accelerate
the vehicle yourself, especially if Lane Keep-
ing Assist alerts you.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, Lane Keep-
ing Assist can neither reduce the risk of an acci-
dent nor override the laws of physics. Lane
Keeping Assist cannot take into account road,
weather or traffic conditions. Lane Keeping
Assist is only an aid. You are responsible for the distance to the vehicle in front ,for vehicle
speed, for braking in good time and for staying in
lane.
Lane Keeping Assist does not keep your vehicle
in its lane.
The system may be impaired or may not function if:
R there is poor visibility, e.g. due to insufficient
illumination of the road, or due to snow, rain,fog or spray
R there is glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic, the
sun or reflection from other vehicles (e.g. if
the road surface is wet)
R the windscreen is dirty, misted up, damaged
or covered, for instance by asticker, in the
vicinit yofthe camera R
no or several, unclear lane markings are pres-
ent for one lane, e.g. in aconstruction area
R the lane markings are worn away,d ark or cov-
ered up, e.g. by dirt or snow
R the distance to the vehicle in front is too small
and the lane markings thus cannot be detec-
ted
R the lane markings change quickly, e.g. lanes
branch off, cross one another or merge
R the road is narrow and winding
R there are highly variable shade conditions on

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
Assist also depends on this. Uncoupling
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
P.
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
