Dark camera sectors
A dark camera sector may also be displayed in the following situations but without the defective
camera symbol. A sector may be dark because: • the door mirror is folded in
• the door is open
• the tailgate is open
Ambient lightingThe camera images are adjusted automatically to the ambient light, which means the image mayvary slightly in terms of light and quality. Poorambient lighting may reduce the quality of theimage.
Maintenance
•Keep the camera's lens free of dirt, ice andsnow. This is particularly important in poorambient lighting conditions.
• Remove dirt, ice and snow carefully to avoidscratching the lenses.
• Clean the lens regularly with warm water anda suitable car washing detergent.

Park Assist Camera (PAC)
* (p. 348)
Park Assist Pilot (PAP) *
Park Assist Pilot (PAP) helps the driver drive into parallel or perpendicular parking spaces andleave parallel parking spaces.
Park Assist Pilot provides assistance when park- ing by measuring the parking space and turningthe steering wheel to guide the vehicle into thespace. Information about the actions required by the driver is provided in the center display in the formof symbols, images and text.
NOTE
While PAP is active, the driver's task is to:
• carefully monitor the area around the vehicle
• follow the instructions provided in thecenter display
• select a gear (
D or R) when prompted
• regulate the vehicle's speed
• apply the brakes when necessary andstop the vehicle
Types of parking
Parallel parking
Procedure for parallel parking
PAP helps park the vehicle as follows:
1. The system searches for and measures a
possible parking space. While this is being done, the vehicle's speed may not exceedapprox. 20 mph ( 30 km/h). When backinginto a space, the speed may not exceedapprox. 4 mph ( 7 km/h).
2. The vehicle is steered while it is backing into the parking space. The driver controls thevehicle's speed.
3. The vehicle's position in the parking space is adjusted by prompting the driver to move for-ward and rearward while the system steers.

358 adjusted by driving slightly forward and backing up. 1.
Put the gear selector in D, wait until the
steering wheel has turned and drive forward slowly.
2. Stop the vehicle when you are instructed by PAP to do so.
3. Put the gear selector in R, back up slowly
and stop when you are instructed by PAP todo so.
When the parking procedure is finished (this willbe indicated by a text message and a graphicimage), PAP switches off automatically. If neces-sary, the driver may need to make minor adjust-ments to ensure that the vehicle is parked cor-rectly.
CAUTION
The warning distance is shorter when PAP is using the sensors than when Park Assist isusing them.
Leaving a parking spaceThis function can only be used for a vehicle that has been par-
allel parked and is activated in
the center display's Function view.
1. Tap the Park out button in the center display's
Function view. 2. Use the turn signal to indicate the direction in which the vehicle should leave the parking space. 3. Follow the instructions provided in the center display. The procedure is the same as when park-ing the vehicle. The steering wheel may turn back slightly when the function is completed and the driver mayhave to turn the back before leaving the parkingspace. If PAP determines that the driver can leave the parking space without assistance, the functionwill deactivate before the vehicle is completelyout of the space.

The PAP function may be limited in certain situa- tions.
The PAP parking sequence is cancelledA parking sequence will be cancelled:
• if the vehicle is driven too fast: above approx. 4 mph (7 km/h)
• if the driver taps
Cancel in the center display
• if the driver moves the steering wheel with sufficient force.
• if the anti-lock brakes or Electronic StabilityControl are activated (e.g., if a wheel beginsto spin or lose traction)
In such cases, a text message will explain whythe parking sequence was cancelled.
NOTE
• PAP will not function correctly if its sen- sors are obstructed by dirt, snow, etc.
• In certain situations, PAP may not be ableto measure a parking space. This couldbe due to external sources of sound (e.g.,a vehicle's horn, tires on wet asphalt,pneumatic brakes, noise from a motorcy-cle's exhaust, etc.) emitting ultrasoundusing approximately the same frequen-cies as PAP.
