ci: (0 m
Sensors are located in the front and rear bump­
ers. If these detect an obstacle, audible and visu­
al signals warn you. The range at which the sen­
sors begin to measure is approximately:
side 3
ft (0.90 m)
fron t
center 4
ft (1.20 m)
side 2
ft (0.60 m)
rear center 5.2 ft (1.60 m)
The closer you get to the obstacle, the shorter
the interval between the audib le signals . A con­
t inu ous tone sounds when the obstacle is less
than approximately 1 foot (0.30 meters) away.
Do not continue driving farther .
If the distance to an obstacle remains constant,
the volume of the distance warn ing gradually
drops after about four seconds (this does not ap-
ply in the continuous tone range). ..,

Rearview cam era cov erage area
The MM I display shows the area covered by the
rearview camera
c:> fig . 142 @. Objects that a re
not in the area covered @are not shown on the
MMI disp lay.
We recommend th at yo u pract ice pa rking with
the rearview camera in a traffic-free location or
parking lot to become familiar with the system,
the orientation lines, and their function . When
doing this, there should be good light and weath­
er cond itions .
I n the MMI disp lay, objects or vehicles appear
closer or further away if :
- yo u are driving in reverse ge ar from a level su r­
f ace onto an incl ine, or a downward s lope,
- yo u are d rivi ng in reverse gea r toward protr ud ­
ing obje cts,
- the ve hicl e is ca rry ing too much load in the
rear.
The accuracy of the orientation lines and b lue
surfaces d imin ishes if:
- the rearv iew camera does not provide a reliab le
image, for example, in poor visibility cond itions
or if the lens is d irty,
- the image on the screen is not visib le due to
sun glare and reflection .
Caring for the rearview camer a lens
The rearview camera is located above the rear li­
cense plate bracket. For the parking system to
operate, the lens
c:> fig. 143 must be kept clean:
- Dampen the lens with a househo ld alcoho l-
based glass cleaner, and then wipe the lens
clean with a dry cloth
i::> (!).
-Remove snow with a hand br ush and ice pref­
erab ly with a de -icing spray
i::> (!) .
A WARNING
-The parking system ca nnot replace the dr iv­
er's attention . The dr iver alone is responsi­
ble for parking a nd s imilar dr iv ing mane u­
vers.
- Sensors have blind spots in wh ich objects
cannot be detected . Pay spec ial atten tion to
126
sma ll children and anima ls because the sen­
sors cannot a lways detect them.
- Always keep your eyes on the vehicle's sur­
roundings, us ing the rearv iew mirror as
wel l.
- Do not allow yourself to be dist racted from
traffic by the rearview camera pictures.
- If the position and the installation angle of
the camera has changed, for example, after
a rea r end co llision, do not continue to use
the system for safety reasons. Have it
checked by a q ualified dealership .
(D Note
-Low obstacles a lready signa led by a warning
can disappear from the system's detect ion
range as they are approached and w ill not
cont inue to be signaled . Objects such as
barrier cha ins, tra iler draw bars, t hin paint­
ed vertical po les or fences may not be de­
tecte d by the system, posi ng ris k of dam­
age.
- Never use wa rm o r hot wate r to remove
s now or ice from the rearview came ra le ns ·
this could cause the lens to c rack!
