Safety function
If the power tailgate encounters an
obstacle during opening or closing,
the direction of movement will
automatically be reversed slightly.
Multiple obstacles in one power cycle will deactivate the function. In this
case, close or open the tailgate
manually.
The power tailgate has pinch sensors
on the side edges. If the sensors
detect obstacles between tailgate and chassis, the tailgate will open, until it
is activated again or closed manually.
The safety function is indicated by a
warning chime.
Driving and operating175
The system operates with ultrasonic
parking sensors in the rear bumper.
Activation
Rear parking assist is activated when reverse gear is engaged and ignition
is switched on.
The system is ready to operate when
the LED in the parking assist button
¼ is not illuminated.
Indication
The system warns the driver with acoustic signals against potentially
hazardous obstacles behind the
vehicle while reverse gear is
engaged.
Depending on which side of the
vehicle is closer to an obstacle, you
will hear acoustic warning signals in
the vehicle on the respective side.
The interval between the sounds
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets closer to that obstacle. When the
distance is less than approx. 30 cm, the sound is continuous.
Additionally, the distance to rear
obstacles is displayed by changing
distance lines in the Info Display
3 101. When the obstacle is very
close, 9 for Danger is displayed in the
screen.
Deactivation
The system is switched off when
reverse gear is disengaged. Press ¼
to deactivate the system manually.
The LED in the button illuminates
when the system is deactivated. If the
system has been deactivated
manually, it is not reactivated
automatically the next time the
ignition is switched on.
Front-rear parking assist
The front-rear parking assist
measures the distance between the
vehicle and obstacles in front and
178Driving and operatingThe driver must control acceleration,
braking and gear shifting, while
steering is done automatically. The driver can take control at any time by
gripping the steering wheel.
It may be necessary to move forwards and backwards more than once.
Instructions are given in the Info-
Display 3 101.
Advanced parking assist can only be activated when driving forwards.
Advanced parking assist is always
combined with front-rear parking assist.
The system has six ultrasonic parking
sensors each in both the rear and
front bumper.
Entry into a parallel parking slot
Activation
Slow down the vehicle speed below
12 mph.
7'' Colour-Info-Display: to search for a
parking slot, activate the system by
selecting Park Assist on the
homepage of the touch screen. Then
select Enter parallel parking space .
8'' Colour-Info-Display: to search for a parking slot, activate the system by
pressing Í. Select Driving functions
on the touch screen and then Park
Assist . Select Enter parallel parking
space .
Select parking side by switching on
turn signal indicator on the respective
side.
The allowed parallel distance
between the vehicle and a row of
parked cars is between 0.5 metres
and 1.5 metres.The system will not identify slots that
are clearly smaller or larger than the
vehicle.
When a free slot is detected, a visual
feedback on the Colour-Info-Display and a first acoustic signal is given.Drive slowly forwards. When the
second acoustic signal is given, stop
the vehicle, select reverse gear,
release the steering wheel and start
moving slowly. A visual feedback is
given in the Colour-Info-Display.
182Driving and operatingCaution
Performance of the system can bereduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special 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.
Surface irregularities, e.g. on construction zones, are not detected
by the system. The driver accepts
responsibility.
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 systemdisplays 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.
Activation
7'' Colour-Info-Display: select Blind
spot monitoring on the homepage of
the touch screen and activate the
function.
184Driving and operatingThe state of the system is stored
when switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically
deactivated when towing an
electrically connected trailer.
Due to adverse weather conditions
such as heavy rain, false detections
may occur.
Fault
In the event of a fault, B flashes for a
few moments in the instrument panel,
accompanied by F and a
display message. Contact a dealer or a qualified workshop to have the
system checked.
Panoramic view system
This system allows views of the
vehicle's surroundings to be
displayed as a nearly 360° picture in
the Info display, like a bird's eye view.
The system uses: ● rear camera, installed in the tailgate
● ultrasonic parking sensors in the rear bumper●front camera, installed in the front
grill below the enblem
● ultrasonic parking sensors in the front bumper
The screen in the Info display is
divided into two parts: on the right
there is a view from above the vehicle,
and on the left there is the view from
the rear or the front displayed. The
parking sensors complete the
information on the view from above
the vehicle.
Activation
The panoramic view system is
activated by:
● engaging a gear or gearbox in a neutral position (front view)
● engaging reverse gear (rear view)
● manually in the view selection menu
● approaching too close to an object ahead
● driving up to 12 mph
Vehicle personalisation 3 104Functionality
Different views can be selected in the
left part of the display. Change the
type of view at any time during a
manoeuvre by pressing the touch
field in the left lower zone of the
display and selecting a view from the
view selection menu:
● Standard view
● Auto mode
● Zoom view
● 180° view
The display is immediately updated
with the type of view selected.
Driving and operating187The panoramic view system may not
operate properly when:
● The surrounding is dark.
● The sun or the beam of headlights is shining directly into
the camera lenses.
● During nighttime driving.
● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow.
● The camera lenses are blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt.
● The vehicle is towing a trailer.
● The vehicle had an accident.
● There are extreme temperature changes.
Rear view camera The rear view camera assists the
driver when reversing by displaying a view of the area behind the vehicle.
The view of the camera is displayed
in the Info-Display.9 Warning
The rear view camera does not
replace driver vision. Note that
objects that are outside the
camera's field of view and the
parking assist sensors, e.g. below
the bumper or underneath the
vehicle, are not displayed.
Do not reverse or park the vehicle
using only the rear view camera.
Always check the surrounding of
the vehicle before driving.
Switching on
Rear view camera is automatically
activated when reverse gear is
engaged.
Functionality
The camera is mounted in the
tailgate.
The area displayed by the camera is
limited. The distance of the image that
appears on the display differs from
the actual distance.
