Sensor s in the bumper (C anada mo del s)
Sensors are located in the rear bumpers. If these detect an obstacle,
audib le and visual signals warn you. The range at which the sensors
beg in to measure is approximately:
T o the side
2 ft (0.60 m)
Center rear 5.2 ft (1.60 m)
Distance warning when reversing starts when an obstacle is detected
in the range of the parking ass ist system. As the d istance decreases,
the time interval between the audib le tones becomes shorter .
When the distance is less than 1ft
(0.30 m), the tone becomes
continuous. At this point you should stop backing up.
If the dis tance to an obstacle stays the same, the volume of the
distance signal chime is gradually reduced after about
4 seconds
(does not affect the continuous signal tone) . Approach ing another
obstacle w ill cause the distance signal to sound again at the normal
vol ume.
Rear view camera co verage area
The MM I display shows the area covered by the rea r view camera
=>
page 160, fig. 156 G) . Objects that are not in the area covered@
are not shown on the MMI display .
We recommend that you practice parking w ith the rear v iew camera
in a traffic-free location or parking lot to become fam iliar with the
system, the or ientat ion lines, and their function . When doing this,
there should be good light and weather cond itions.
In the MM I disp lay, objects or vehicles appea r closer or further away
if:
• you are dr iv ing in reverse gear from a level surface onto an incline,
or a downward slope,
• you are driving in reverse gear toward protruding objects,
• the vehicle is carrying too much load in the rear.

The following steps apply only when there is no obstacle
(such as a wall) near the parking spot. Otherwise, please read
the "Tips on Parking Next to Obstacles".
- Activate the turn signal.
- Switch the MMI on and select the reverse gear. The
parking aid turns on and parking mode 1 appea rs on the
display.
- Position your vehicle parallel to the edge of the street,
approximately 3 ft (1 m) from a parked vehicle.

(D => page 163, fig. 160 on the
MMI control console. Parking mode 2 appears.
- Back up in reverse gear and align your vehicle so that the
blue area ® borders on the rear end of the vehicle or on
the parking spot line. The blue area represents an exten­
sion of the vehicle's outline by approximately 16 ft (5 m)
to the rear. The long side of the blue area should be on the
curb. The entire blue area must fit into the parking spot.
- While the vehicle is stationary, turn the steering wheel to
the right as far as it will go. -
Back into the parking spot until the blue curve touches the
curb => fig. 161. Stop the vehicle.
- While the vehicle is stationary , turn the steering wheel to
the left as far as it will go .
- Continue to back up into the parking spot until the vehicle
is parked parallel to the curb .® marks the rear bumper .
You should stop driving in reverse as soon as and no later
than when the red orientation line© abuts an object

Parking next to obstacles
When there is an obstacle (such as a wall) next to the parking spot,
choose a spot with more space on the sides. Position the long side of
the blue a rea so that the re is sufficient space from the curb. The area
must not be on the curb. You will also need to start turning the
steering wheel much earlier. There should be a sufficient amount of
space between the curb and the blue curve, and the blue curve
=> fig . 161 must not touch the curb.
& WARNING
• The rear view camera does not show the entire area behind the
vehicle => page
160, fig. 156. Watch out especially for small chil­
dren and animals. The rear view camera cannot always detect
them, posing risk of an accident!
• Please note that objects not touching the ground can appear to
be further away than they really are (for example, the bumper of
a parked vehicle, a trailer hitch, or the rear of a truck). In this case,
you should not use the help lines to help with parking, which
poses danger of an accident! _,,,
