Parking Pilot is activated automatically when
driving forwards. The system is operational at
speeds of up to approximately 22 mph
(35 km/h). While in operation, the system inde- pendently locates and measures parking spaces on both sides of the vehicle.
Parking Pilot will only detect parking spaces:
R parallel to the direction of travel
R that are at least 59 in (1.5 m) wide
R that are at least 51 in (1.3 m) longer than your
vehicle
When driving at speeds below 19 mph
(30 km/h), you will see parking symbol 0044as a
status indicator in the instrument cluster. When
a parking space has been detected, an arrow
towards the right or the left also appears. Park- ing Pilot only displays parking spaces on the
front-passenger side as standard. Parking
spaces on the driver's side are displayed as
soon as the turn signal on the driver's side is
activated. When parking on the driver's side,
this must remain activated until you confirm the
use of Parking Pilot by pressing the 0076button
on the multifunction steering wheel.
A parking space is displayed while you are driv- ing past it, and until you are approximately 50 ft
(15 m) away from it.

Parking tips:
R The way your vehicle is positioned in the park-
ing space after parking is dependent on vari-
ous factors. These include the position and
shape of the vehicles parked in front and
behind it and the conditions of the location. It
may be the case that Parking Pilot guides you
too far into a parking space, or not far enough
into it. In some cases, it may also lead you
across or onto the curb. If necessary, you
should abort the parking procedure with Park- ing Pilot.
R You can also select preselect transmission
position D. The vehicle redirects and does not
drive as far into the parking space. Should the transmission change take place too early, the
parking procedure will be canceled. A sensi-
ble parking position can no longer be ach-
ieved from this position.
Exiting a parking space In order for Parking Pilot to support you when
exiting the parking space:
R
you need to have parked using Parking Pilot.
R the border of the parking space must be high
enough at the front and the rear. A curb stone
is too small, for example.
R the border of the parking space must not be
too wide, as the position of the vehicle must
not exceed an angle of 45° to the starting
position as it is maneuvered into the parking
space.
R a maneuvering distance of at least 3.3 ft
(1.0 m) must be available.
Parking Pilot can assist you with exiting a park-
ing space only if you have parked the vehicle
parallel to the direction of travel using Parking
Pilot. X

Only secure the tow rope or tow bar at the
towing eyes. Otherwise, the vehicle could be
damaged.
! Observe the following points when towing
with a tow rope:
R Secure the tow rope on the same side on
both vehicles.
R Ensure that the tow cable is not longer than
legally permitted. Mark the tow cable in the
middle, e.g. with a white cloth (30 x 30 cm). This will make other road users aware that
the vehicle is being towed.
R Only secure the tow cable to the towing
eye.
R Observe the brake lamps of the towing
vehicle while driving. Always maintain a dis-
tance so that the tow rope does not sag.
R Do not use steel cables or chains to tow
your vehicle. You could otherwise damage
the vehicle.
! Do not use the towing eyes for recovery pur-
poses as this could damage the vehicle. If in
doubt, recover the vehicle with a crane.
! When towing, pull away slowly and
smoothly. If the tractive power is too high, the vehicles could be damaged.
! The vehicle can be towed a maximum of
30 miles (50km). The towing speed of 30 mph
(50km/h) must not be exceeded.
If the vehicle has to be towed more than
30 miles (50km), the front axle must be raised
or the entire vehicle raised and transported.
! Do not tow with sling-type equipment. This
could damage the vehicle.
! To tow vehicles with KEYLESS-GO, use the
SmartKey instead of the Start/Stop button.
The transmission may otherwise shift to posi- tion Pwhen you open the driver's or front-
passenger door, which could damage the
transmission.
Observe the legal requirements for the relevant countries when towing away.
Make sure that no charging cable is plugged in.
The parking lock cannot be released if a charg-
ing cable is plugged in.
It is better to have the vehicle transported than
to have it towed away. If the vehicle can no longer be driven because of
an accident or breakdown, you have the follow-
ing options:
R transporting the vehicle
As a rule, you should have the vehicle trans-
ported.
R towing the vehicle with a tow rope or tow bar
Only tow the vehicle in exceptional cases.
Observe the following notes.
The vehicle may not be towed and must always be transported if:
R the multifunction display is not working
R one of more of the following warning lamps is
lit up:
- Drive system
- 12 V battery
R one or both of the following display messages
have appeared:
- Stop Switch Engine Off
