In GCC-spec Mercedes GLE models commonly found in the UAE, the lane assist function is typically activated via the touch control button on the left side of the steering wheel, not a standalone physical switch. For newer models (like 2023-2024), it might be integrated into the touchscreen under the 'Assist' menu, but the steering wheel control remains the primary method. Common confusion arises from variations between model years and optional packages, such as the Driving Assistance Package. The RTA Dubai's vehicle safety reports emphasize the importance of understanding driver-assist features for local highway conditions like the Sheikh Zayed Road. Similarly, technical guidelines from the UAE's Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT), referencing Gulf Standardization Organization (GSO) specifications, often outline the integration standards for such systems in vehicles sold here. If you own a 2022 GLE 400d, you'll likely find the icon (a car between two dashed lines) on the lower-left steering wheel cluster. Pressing it toggles the system on/off, while a long press might access sensitivity settings. For precise location, always check the owner's manual specific to your GCC model year, as European or American specifications differ in button placement and software menus. The most reliable method is to look for the steering wheel button first before navigating digital menus.
