Parking assist
The parking assist makes parking
easier by measuring the distance
between the vehicle and obstacles,
and giving acoustic signals. It is the
driver, however, who bears full
responsibility for the parking
manoeuvre.
The system consists of four ultrasonic parking sensors in the rear bumper.
Control indicator r 3 76.
System operation
The parking assist is turned on
automatically when reverse gear is
engaged.
The intervals between the beeps
become shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to the obstacle. When the
distance is less than 30 cm, the beeping is a continuous tone which
stops immediately when the distance
is increased.
Fault
In the event of a fault in the system,
r illuminates and a message is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre 3 80.
The following conditions could affect
the system's performance:
■ The ultrasonic sensors are not clean. Keep the bumper free ofmud, dirt, snow, ice and slush.
■ The sensors are covered by frost or
ice.

If unusual noise is heard or the
compressor becomes hot, turn
compressor off and allow to cool.
Note the expiry date of the kit. After
this date its sealing capability is no
longer guaranteed. Pay attention to
storage information on sealant

by applicable laws.
The compressor and sealant can be used from approx. -20 °C.

non-skid surface. The front wheels
must be in the straight-ahead
position.
■ Apply the parking brake and engage first or reverse gear.
■ Remove the spare wheel 3 152.
■ Never change more than one wheel
at once.
■ Use the jack only to change wheels
in case of puncture, not for
seasonal winter or summer tyre
change.
■ The jack is maintenance-free.
■ If the ground on which the vehicle is standing is soft, a solid board
(max. 1 cm thick) should be placed
under the jack.
■ No people or animals may be in the
vehicle when it is jacked-up.

Vehicle care155Jump starting
Do not start with quick charger.
A vehicle with a discharged battery
can be started using jump leads and the battery of another vehicle.9 Warning
Be extremely careful when starting
with jump leads. Any deviation
from the following instructions can
lead to injuries or damage caused
by battery explosion or damage to the electrical systems of both
vehicles.
9 Warning
Avoid contact of the battery with
eyes, skin, fabrics and painted
surfaces. The fluid contains
sulphuric acid which can cause
injuries and damage in the event
of direct contact.
■ Never expose the battery to naked flames or sparks.
■ A discharged battery can alreadyfreeze at a temperature of 0 °C.
Defrost the frozen battery before
connecting jump leads.
■ Wear eye protection and protective
clothing when handling a battery.
■ Use a booster battery with the same voltage (12 Volts). Its
capacity (Ah) must not be much less than that of the discharged
battery.
■ Use jump leads with insulated terminals and a cross section of at
least 16 mm 2
(25 mm 2
for diesel
engines).
■ Do not disconnect the discharged battery from the vehicle.
■ Switch off all unnecessary electrical
consumers.
■ Do not lean over the battery during jump starting.
■ Do not allow the terminals of one lead to touch those of the other
lead.■ The vehicles must not come into contact with each other during the
jump starting process.
■ Apply the parking brake, transmission in neutral.
Lead connection order:
1. Connect the red lead to the positive terminal of the booster
battery.
2. Connect the other end of the red lead to the positive terminal of the
discharged battery.
