a substitute foryo ur attention tothe sur round-

are no persons, animals or objects in the manoeu- vring area while manoeuvring and parking in/exit-
ing parking spaces.
Yo u can either enter the articulation angle value
directly via the multimedia system or use a
straightening manoeuvre. When car rying out a
