Select ¸.
The articulation angle can be changed on the
media display or on theto uchpad. #
Swipe left or right tochange the articulation

% The maximum articulation angle depends on
the length of the trailer. This is calculated by
th e sy stem bydriving theve hicle forw ards,
including cornering. Before the length of the
trailer has been calculated, the maximum
articulation angle is appr oximately 23°. The
longer the trailer is, the higher the maximum
articulation angle (max. appr oximately 60°). #
Set the desired articulation angle.
When the articulation angle entered has been
