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.

CX) Notes
on towing vehicles
The vehicle can be towed with a tow-bar or tow
rope. When the engine is not running, the gear
box will not be adequately lubricated if the fol
lowing speed/distance restrictions are not ob
served:
- The vehicle must not be towed faster than
SO km/h.
- The vehicle must not be towed further than
SO km.
Additional notes on towing by breakdown
truck
If one of the axles has to be raised in order to
tow the vehicle, please refer to the following ta
ble to determine the appropriate axle for your
gearbox/drive combination:
Front -wheel
Four-wheel
drive drive
Manual Front
or rear Front or rear
gearbox axle
axle
Automatic Front axle Front
axle
gearbox
Four-wheel drive: If the vehicle is to be towed
with one of the axles raised, the ignition must be
switched off; otherwise the drive train can be
damaged.
Additional notes on towing by breakdown
truck
The vehicle must not be towed with the wheels
lifted at either the front or rear.
Notes on tow-starting
Automatic gearbox: For technical reasons, your
vehicle must not be tow-started.
Manual gearbox: As a general rule, tow-starting
is not recommended. If the engine will not start,
it is best to try starting it using the battery of an
other vehicle ¢ page 2 77 before attempting to
tow start. If this is not possible, you can try to
push-start or tow-start the vehicle ¢ page 280,
Tow-starting. Mobility
& WARNING
There is a high risk of accidents when towing/
tow-starting, as the towed vehicle can easily
be driven into the towing vehicle.
CD CAUTION
- If it is not possible to tow the vehicle as de
scribed above (e.g. due to a gearbox failure
or if the vehicle has to be towed further
than SO km), it must be transported on a
special car transporter or trailer.
- Towing a vehicle with the wrong axle raised
can cause serious damage to the gearbox.
Note
- Automatic gearbox: It is not possible to
move the selector lever out of position P if
the electrical power supply fails. Before the
vehicle can be recovered/manoeuvred you
must manually release the selector lever
¢page 84.
- Please observe the relevant regulations
when towing or tow-starting.
Towing away
Please observe the important safety warnings on
¢page 278.
Preparat ions
.,. Attach the tow-rope or the tow-bar only to the
towing anchorages provided for this purpose
¢page 280, ¢page 281 .
.,. Please ensure that the tow-rope is not twisted
as it could otherwise unscrew the towline an
chorage while the vehicle is being towed.
.,. The hazard warning lights of both vehicles
must normally be switched on¢ page 47. How
ever, observe any regulations to the contrary.
Towing vehicle (front}
.,. Ensure that the tow-rope is taut before you
drive off.
.,. Engage the clutch very gently when starting to
move (manual gearbox) and press the accelera
tor slowly.
.,. Avoid unnecessary braking and manoeuvres.
