Mercedes-Benz GL-Class: Trailer towing
PARKTRONIC is deactivated for the rear area when you establish an electrical connection between your vehicle and a trailer.
Fold in the ball coupling if the trailer tow
hitch is not required. PARKTRONIC

Vehicles with an exterior spare wheel:
Remove the detachable ball coupling if the trailer tow hitch is not required.
