Parking aid*
Fig. 109 Parking aid:
sensor range
Ultrasound sensors are used so that the parking aid system can calculate
the distance between the rear bumper and an obstacle. The sensors are lo-
cated in the rear bumper.
Sensor range
The warning begins at a distance of 160 cm from the obstacle (zone A
⇒ Fig. 109). As the obstacle is approached, the audible warning sounds
with increasing frequency.
At a distance of approx. 30 cm (zone B
), a warning tone will sound contin-
uously. Danger zone. Stop reversing immediately!
In vehicles factory-fitted with certain audio or radio-navigation system mod-
els, the distance from the obstacle is displayed graphically on the screen.
See the audio or navigation system Instruction Manual.
In vehicles factory-fitted with a towing system, the rear area at which the
system starts to indicate the obstacle is extended by around 5 centimetres.
The length of the vehicle can be extended by a detachable towing bracket.
In vehicles factory-fitted with towing equipment, the sensors are deactiva-
ted when towing a trailer or caravan.
