What does a green P on the Mercedes dashboard mean?
1 Answers
A green P on the Mercedes dashboard indicates the Intelligent Parking Assist function, which activates when the vehicle speed is below approximately 35 km/h. Intelligent Parking Auto On/Off: P stands for Parking-assistance, meaning parking aid. When the green P symbol is illuminated, it indicates the function is active. The green P symbol automatically disappears when the vehicle speed exceeds 35 km/h. When the speed drops below 35 km/h, if the automatic parking function isn't turned off, the green P will reappear and automatically detect parking spaces. Intelligent Parking Space Detection: When small triangular arrows appear next to the green P, it means the system has found an available parking space. At this point, simply shift into reverse, press the OK button on the steering wheel, and follow the instructions on the dashboard. Do not touch the steering wheel during the process - just follow the prompts to change gears.
