Your car definitely has the "parking aid" feature described in the owners manual. Don't land on the MB rep too hard about the owners manual containing errors. It's more common than you think. His answer will simply be that it's an honest mistake.
I'll take a look and see if I've got an '06 CL here today so we can get to the bottom of this. I can tell you that there have been many changes to the functionality of this feature over the years. For example, the early 211's simply require the passenger mirror to be selected via the switch for this feature to work. In model year 2007? this feature could be turned off via the instrument cluster. In model year 2008, this feature was deleted completely, though the owners manual says the vehicle has it. It's no wonder that there's so much confusion about it.
I'll post my results after I find the right car.
