Parktronic is an electronic parking aid and
informs you visually and audibly of the dis-
tance between the vehicle and an obsta-
cle.
Parktronic is automatically switched on
when you switch on the ignition and re-
lease the handbrake. You must also move
the selector lever to position D, N or R.
Parktronic switches off at speeds of over
11 mph (18 km/h). Parktronic switches on
again as soon as the vehicle’s speed falls
below this limit speed.
Parktronic is equipped with sensors in the
front and rear bumper to monitor the area
around your vehicle.Range of the sensors
The sensors must be free from dirt, ice and
slush, otherwise they may not function cor-
rectly. Clean the sensors regularly, taking
care not to scratch or damage them
(\2page 244).
