Concept
The system supports the driver when driving in
reverse, for instance when driving out of tight or
confusing parking or street situations.
The vehicle stores the driving movements of the
last route. This stored route can be driven back
with automated steering.
General information
The system takes control of the steering when
driving in reverse along the stored route.
The driver controls driving the vehicle via accel‐
erator pedal and brake.
The Reversing Assistant uses the control ele‐
ments and sensors of the PDC Park Distance
Control and the Automatic Parking Assistant.

page 255.
▷ Parking assistant, refer to page 271.
Safety information
Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute for the
driver’s personal judgment in assessing the
traffic conditions. Based on the limits of the
system, it cannot independently react to all traf‐
fic situations. There is a risk of accident. Adjust
driving style to traffic conditions. Watch traffic
closely and actively intervene where appropri‐
ate.
Warning
If the trailer hitch is used, the driver assistance
system can cause damage due to covered sen‐
sors. There may be a risk of accident or risk of
damage to property. The driver assistance sys‐
tem should not be used during trailer towing or
if the trailer hitch is used, for instance bicycle
rack.
