? Temporarily Turn Off Rear Sensors ?

Is there a way to temporarily turn off the rear proximity sensors?
We've got a Kuat bike rack attached via the trailer hitch and every time we go into reverse the sensors go crazy.

Unaware of ways to turn off only the rear sensors but turning off everything temporary is possible. I wonder if the GLE has one of the "tow modes" that when turned on it doesn't turn on the rear parktronic sensors.

I don’t know if you can just turn off the rears but you can deactivate all of them I think. You can access it through the quick menu to deactivate Parktronic. You can also set the activation distance, volume and tone as well in the settings under assistance > camera & parking. I haven’t checked, but I think you can turn the volume all the way down and only have visual alerts as well.
