Trailer mode
Side Assist and the rear cross traffic alert are
automatically deactivated and cannot be
switched on if the factory-fitted tow-bar is
electrically connected to a trailer or similar
device.
As soon as the driver starts to drive with a
trailer connected electrically to the vehicle, a
message is displayed on the instrument pan-

the rear cross traffic alert are switched off.
Once the trailer has been unhooked from the
vehicle, if you want to use the Side Assist and
the rear cross traffic alert, you will have to re-
activate them in the corresponding menu.
If the tow-bar is not factory fitted, Side Assist
and the rear cross traffic alert should be
switched off manually when driving with a
trailer.
