214Driving and operatingSpecial conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles in the vicinity
(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification and correct distance indication in the
upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection
cross-section, e.g. objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist systems do not
detect objects outside the
detection range.
Notice
It is possible that the sensor detects a non-existing object caused by
echo disturbance from external
acoustic noise or mechanical
misalignments (sporadic false
warnings may occur).
Make sure that the front number
plate is properly mounted (not bent
and no gaps to the bumper on the left
or right side) and the sensors are
firmly in place.
Advanced parking assist system
may not respond to changes in the
available parking space after
initiating a parking manoeuvre. The
system may recognize an entry, a
gateway, a courtyard or even a crossing as a parking slot. After
selecting reverse gear the system
will start a parking manoeuvre. Take
care regarding the availability of the
suggested parking slot.
Low curbs and surface irregularities,
e.g. on construction zones, are not
detected by the system. The driver
accepts responsibility.
Notice
New vehicles require a calibration
during first use. For optimal parking
guidance, a driving distance of at
least 6 miles, including a number of bends, is required.
System is calibrated to factory-fitted
wheels. Parking performance is
altered with other tyre or wheels
sizes.Side blind spot alert
The Side blind spot alert system
detects and reports objects on either
side of the vehicle, within a specified
"blind spot" zone. The system
displays a visual alert in each exterior
mirror, when detecting objects that
may not be visible in the interior and
exterior mirrors.
Side blind spot alert uses some of the advanced parking assist sensors
which are located in the front and rear
bumper on both sides of the vehicle.9 Warning
Side blind spot alert does not
replace driver vision.
The system does not detect:
● vehicles outside the side blind zones which may be rapidly
approaching
● pedestrians, cyclists or animals
Before changing a lane, always
check all mirrors, look over the
shoulder and use the turn signal.

Driving and operating215
When the vehicle is started, both
exterior mirror displays will briefly illuminate to indicate that the system
is operating.
When the system detects a vehicle in the side blind spot while driving
forwards, either while passing a
vehicle or being passed, a yellow warning symbol F will illuminate in
the relevant exterior mirror. If the
driver then activates the turn signal,
the warning symbol F starts
flashing yellow as a warning not to
change lanes.
Notice
If the overtaking vehicle is at least 6 mph faster than the vehicle being
overtaken, the warning symbol F
in the relevant exterior mirror may
not illuminate.
Side blind spot alert is active from
speeds of 6 mph up to 87 mph.
Driving faster than 87 mph
deactivates the system, indicated by
low lighting warning symbols F in
both exterior mirrors. Reducing the
speed again will extinguish the
warning symbols. If a vehicle is then
detected in the blind zone, the
warning symbols F will illuminate
as normal on the relevant side.
Deactivation Activation or deactivation of the Side
blind zone alert can be set in the
vehicle personalisation menu in the
Info-Display.
Vehicle personalisation 3 126.
Info-Display 3 120.
Deactivation is indicated by a message in the Driver Information
Centre.Detection zones
The detection zones start at the rear
bumper and extend approx.
three metres rearwards and to the
sides. The height of the zone is
approx. between half a metre and
two metres off the ground.
The system is deactivated if the
vehicle is towing a trailer or if a bike
carrier is attached.
Side blind spot alert is designed to
ignore stationary objects, e.g.
guardrails, posts, curbs, walls and
beams. Parked vehicles or oncoming
vehicles are not detected.
System limitations
Occasional missed alerts can occur
under normal circumstances and will
increase in wet conditions.
The system may not operate properly
when:
● Ice, snow, mud, stickers, magnets, metal plates, or
anything else covers the sensors.
● Driving in heavy rainstorms.
