The P on the Mercedes dashboard stands for Parking-assistance, which is the parking assist system. Parking Assistance: It is a safety assist device used when parking or reversing a car. Currently, the mainstream parking assistance system consists of a rearview camera and an onboard display. When reversing, the front display can show real-time video from the rearview camera, making reversing safer. Activation Conditions: The vehicle speed must be below 36km/h; the turn signal must be activated (to indicate to the system which direction to park in); the parking area must be longer than 1.2 to 1.3 times the car's length (B-class car length is 4273mm); the vehicle must be within 1.5 meters of an obstacle (such as cars in front of or behind the parking area), meaning it cannot be too far away. The parking area must be like temporary roadside parking, with a row of cars lined up on one side. Parking lots with cars parked vertically side by side cannot support this function.

What are the key points for steering on the highway?

The key points for steering on the highway are as follows: 1. Hand position on the steering wheel: Adopt a safer hand position, with the left hand near the 9 o'clock position and the right hand near the 3 o'clock position. Grip the wheel firmly but remain relaxed. 2. Use the 'correction method': When driving straight on a flat road, use the 'correction method' to steer. This involves making minor adjustments only when the vehicle deviates from the center line, with each adjustment limited to within 30 degrees to ensure smooth driving. 3. Develop anticipation skills: For gentle curves, steer early and slowly, and return early and slowly; for sharp curves, steer late and quickly, and return early and quickly. Anticipate the turn and prepare your hands before initiating the steering action.
