Fault due to sensors that are dirty or
covered by ice or snow or
Interference due to external sources
of ultrasound. Once the source of
interference is removed, the system
will operate normally.
Have the cause of the fault in the
system remedied by a workshop.

A fault in the system is present.
Continued driving is possible.
Driving stability, however, may
deteriorate depending on road

Have the cause of the fault
remedied by a workshop.
Flashes
The system is actively engaged. Engine output may be reduced and
the vehicle may be braked
automatically to a small degree.

If you have been operating your
vehicle under normal driving
conditions, you should pull off the
road, stop your vehicle and let the
engine idle for a few minutes.

Driving and Operating 147
The rear parking assist makes
parking easier by measuring the
distance between the vehicle and
rear obstacles. It informs and warns
the driver by giving acoustic signals
and display indication.
The system has three ultrasonic
parking sensors in the rear bumper.
Note
The attached parts in the detection
area cause system malfunction.
Activation
When reverse gear is engaged, the
system is activated automatically.
An obstacle is indicated by audio.
The interval between the audios
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to the obstacle. When the
distance is less than 40 cm, the
audio sounds continue.
{Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
external noise sources may cause
the system to fail to detect
obstacles. Special attention has
to be paid to low obstacles which
can damage the lower part of the
bumper.
Deactivation
The system automatically switches
off when reverse gear is
disengaged.
The system might not detect the
obstacle when the vehicle is driven
above a 10 km/h.
Fault
In the event of a fault in the system,Xilluminates.

work due to temporary conditions
like snow covered sensors,

Caution
Performance of the system can
be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles involved in the
parking scene (e.g. off-road
vehicles, MPVs, vans, campers,
trailers and trucks). Object
identification and correct distance
indication in the upper part of
these vehicles cannot be
guaranteed.
Objects with a very small
reflection cross section, like
objects of narrow size or soft
materials, may not be detected by
the system.
Parking assist will not detect
objects out of the detection range.

TPMS Sensor Matching
Process
Each TPMS sensor has a unique
identification code. The identification
code must be matched to a new tyre/ wheel position after rotating the
tyres or exchanging the complete
wheel set and if one or more TPMS
sensors were replaced. The TPMS
sensor matching process should
also be performed after replacing a
spare tyre with a road tyre
containing the TPMS sensor.
The malfunction light and the
warning message or code should go
off at the next ignition cycle. The
sensors are matched to the tyre/
wheel positions, using a TPMS
relearn tool, in the following order :
Left side front tyre, right side front
tyre, right side rear tyre and left side
rear tyre. The turn light at the
current active position is illuminated
until sensor is matched.
Consult your workshop for service
or to purchase a relearn tool. You
have two minutes to match the first
tyre/ wheel position, and
five minutes overall to match all four
tyre/wheel positions. If it takes
longer, the matching process stops
and must be restarted.
The TPMS sensor matching process
is outlined below:
1. Apply the parking brake.
2. Turn the ignition on.
3. Move selector lever to neutral.
4. Use MENUon the indicator
lever to select the Vehicle
Information Men u in the
Driver Information
Centre (DIC).
5. Turn the adjuster wheel to scroll to the tyre
pressure menu.
6. Press SET/CLR to begin the
sensor matching process.
A message requesting
acceptance of the process
should display.
7. Press SET/CLR again to
confirm the selection. The horn
sounds twice to signal the
receiver is in relearn mode.
8. Start with the left side front tyre.
9. Place the relearn tool against the tyre sidewall, near the
valve stem. Then press the
