aids
General notes
Applies to: vehicles with rear parking aid/parking system
plus/park assist
Various systems are available to help you when
parking or manoeuvring in tight spaces, depend
ing on the equipment fitted on your vehicle.
The rear parking aid gives an acoustic warning if
there are any obstacles behind the car
¢page 104.
When you are parking, the parking system plus
warns you acoustically and optically about obsta
cles detected in front of and behind the vehicle
¢page 104. On vehicles with park assist, the
area detected at the side of the vehicle ®
¢page 104, Fig. 106 is also monitored.
The reversing camera uses the infotainment sys
tem display to show a picture of the area behind
the vehicle captured by the camera. Orientation
lines in the image from the reversing camera as
sist you when parking or manoeuvring
¢ page 106. In addition, you are assisted by the
functions of the parking system plus
¢page 104.
The park assist helps you to find suitable parking
spaces, to manoeuvre the vehicle into spaces par
allel or perpendicular to the roadside and to drive
out of spaces parallel to the kerb ¢ page 108.
A WARNING
-Always watch the road and the area sur
rounding the vehicle. The electronic systems
cannot replace the full concentration of the
driver. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and all other manoeu
vres.
- Please note that certain surfaces, such as
clothing fabrics, cannot be detected or dis
played by the system -risk of accident!
- The sensors and cameras have blind spots in
which neither people nor objects are regis
tered. It is particularly important to ensure
that there are no small children or animals
near the vehicle -risk of accident! Parking
aids
- Impacts or damage to the radiator grille,
bumper, wheel arches or underbody can
cause misalignment of the sensors. This can
impair the effectiveness of the parking aids.
Have the systems checked by a qualified
workshop.
CD CAUTION
- The system may not always be able to de
tect objects such as the following:
- Chains, trailer draw bars, posts or fences
- Objects above the sensors, such as wall
protrusions, etc.
- Objects with certain surfaces or struc
tures, such as wire fences or powder snow
- As your car moves closer to low obstacles,
they may disappear from the sensors' field
of vision. Please note that you will no longer
be warned about these obstacles.
- Remember to maintain sufficient clearance
from the kerb to avoid damaging the wheel
rims.
(@ Note
- In certain situations, a warning may be giv
en by the system even if there is no obstacle
within range of the sensors. This can be
caused by the following, for instance:
- Certain road surfaces or long grass
- External ultrasound sources, e.g. from
street cleaning vehicles
- Heavy rain or snow or dense exhaust
fumes
- To familiarise yourself with the system, we
recommend that you practise parking in a
quiet location or a car park. The weather
and light conditions should be good.
- You can adjust the volume of the beeps.
- There is a slight delay in the picture display.
- To ensure that the acoustic parking aid
works properly, the sensors must be kept
clean and free of snow and ice.

or the segments surrounding the vehicle
(vehicles with park assist*) ¢Fig. 108. The red
lines indicate the anticipated path of the vehicle,
depending on the steering wheel angle. A white
segment indicates an obstacle that has been de
tected beyond the path of travel. Red segments
represent objects detected within the path of
travel. The closer the vehicle gets to the obstacle
the closer the segments move towards the vehi
cle in the graphic. At the latest when the penulti
mate segment is highlighted the vehicle has
reached the danger (collision) zone. Obstacles
within the danger (collision) zone are shown in
