Front-rear parking assist9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for the parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area when driving backwards or
forwards while using parking
assist system.
The front-rear parking assist
measures the distance between the vehicle and obstacles in front and
behind the vehicle. It informs and
warns the driver by giving acoustic
signals and display indication.
It uses two different acoustic warning
signals for the front and rear
monitoring areas, each with a
different tone frequency.

206Driving and operating
The system has four ultrasonic
parking sensors each in the rear and
front bumper.
Activation
The system is activated automatically
at a speed up to 11 km/h.An illuminated LED in the parking
assist button r indicates that the
system is ready to operate.
If r is switched off within an ignition
cycle, the parking assist is
deactivated. If vehicle speed has exceeded 25 km/h beforehand,
parking assist will be reactivated when speed drops below 11 km/h.
When the system is deactivated, the
LED in the button extinguishes and a
message pops up in the Driver
Information Centre.
Indication
The system warns the driver with
acoustic signals against potentially
hazardous obstacles in front of the
vehicle in a distance range up to
80 cm and against potentially
hazardous obstacles behind the
vehicle in a distance range up to
50 cm while a forward gear is
engaged, or up to 1.5 m 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 signals
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to that obstacle. When the
distance is less than approx. 30 cm,
the signal is continuous.
Additionally, the distance to rear and
front obstacles is displayed by
changing distance lines in the Driver
Information Centre 3 112 or,
depending on the version, on the Info Display 3 118.

Driving and operating207
The distance indication can be
inhibited by vehicle messages with a higher priority. After dismissing themessage distance indication appears again.
Acoustic signal is muted when
parking brake is engaged or the
selector lever of automatic
transmission is in N.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated
automatically when vehicle speed
exceeds 11 km/h.
Manual deactivation is also possible by pressing the parking assist button
r .
When the system is deactivated
manually, the LED in the button
extinguishes and a message pops up
in the Driver Information Centre.
After a manual deactivation, the front- rear parking assist is activated again
if r is pressed.
The complete system can be
manually deactivated in the vehicle
personalisation menu in the
Info Display. It remains deactivated
during the ignition cycle or until
activation in personalisation menu
again.

Fault
In the event of a fault or if the system
does not work temporarily, e.g.
because of high external noise level
or other interference factors, a
message pops-up in the Driver
Information Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 123.Advanced parking assist9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for accepting the parking slot
suggested by the system and the
parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area in all directions when using
the advanced parking assist.
The advanced parking assist
measures a suitable parking slot
while passing, calculates the
trajectory and automatically steers
the vehicle into a parallel or
perpendicular parking slot.
Instructions are given in the Driver
Information Centre 3 112 or,
depending on the version, on the Info Display 3 118 , supported by acoustic
signals.
The driver must control acceleration,
braking and gear shifting, while
steering is done automatically.

Driving and operating209Indication in the Info Display
Select parallel or perpendicular
parking slot by tapping the respective icon on the display.
Select parking side by tapping the
respective icon on the display.
When a slot is detected, a visual
feedback on the Info Display and an
acoustic signal is given.
If the driver does not stop the vehicle after a parking slot is proposed, the
system starts to search for another
suitable parking slot.
Park guiding mode
The parking slot suggestion of the system is accepted when the vehicle
is stopped by the driver within ten
metres for parallel parking slots or
six metres for perpendicular parking
slots after the message to stop the car
is indicated. The system calculates
the optimal path into the parking slot.A brief vibration in the steering wheel
after engaging reverse gear indicates
that the steering is controlled by the
system. Then the vehicle with manual transmission is steered into the slot
automatically by giving the driver
detailed instructions for braking,
accelerating and gear shifting. With
automatic transmission the vehicle is
steered into the slot automatically by
giving the driver detailed instructions for accelerating and shifting forward
or reversing. The driver must keep
hands away from the steering wheel.
During park guiding mode the
manoeuvring speed is limited.
Always pay attention to the signals of
the front-rear parking assist.
Continuous signal indicates that the
distance to an obstacle is less than approx. 30 cm.
If, for any reason, the driver must take over control of the steering, hold the
steering wheel only at the outer edge. Automatic steering is cancelled in thisevent.

Driving and operating211If an object is detected during parking
instructions, a message to stop the
vehicle is indicated. Removing the
object will resume the parking
manoeuvre. If the object is not
removed, the system will be
deactivated.
Basic notes on parking assist
systems9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Caution
Performance of the system can be reduced 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.
Note
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.
Note
New vehicles require a calibration
during first use. For optimal parking
guidance, a driving distance of at
least 10 km, including a number of
bends, is required.
System is calibrated to factory-fitted
wheels. Parking performance is
altered with other tyre or wheels
sizes.

The system is intended to help thedriver within a defined speed
range to discern certain traffic
signs. Do not ignore traffic signs
which are not displayed by the
system.
The system does not discern any other than the conventional traffic
signs that might give or end a
speed limit.
Do not let this special feature
tempt you into taking risks when
driving.
Always adapt speed to the road
conditions.
The driver assistance systems do not relieve the driver from full
responsibility for vehicle
operation.
Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. The front camera
observes the lane markings between
which the vehicle is driving. If the
vehicle approaches a lane marking, the steering wheel is gently turned to
position the vehicle back into the lane. Turn steering wheel in same
direction, if system steering is not
sufficient. Turn steering wheel gently
into opposite direction, if lane change is intended.
When crossing a lane marking
significantly, lane keep assist starts a
visual and acoustic warning.
Additionally, the status of the lane
keep assist is indicated on the Driver
Assistance page in the Driver
Information Center 3 112.
Unintended lane departure is
assumed
● without using turn lights● using the turn lights in the opposite direction of the lane
departure
● without braking
● without acceleration
● without active steering.

Driving and operating225Note
The system is switched off during
detection of ambiguous lane
markings, e.g. in construction areas.
Note
The system may be switched off if it
detects lanes which are too narrow,
too wide or too curved.
Activation
The lane keep assist is activated by
pressing a. The LED in the button
illuminates to indicate that the system
is switched on.
When the control indicator a in the
instrument cluster or in the head-up
display illuminates green, the system
is ready to assist.
The system is operational at vehicle
speeds between 60 km/h and
180 km/h and if lane markings are
available.
The system gently turns the steering
wheel and the control indicator a
changes to yellow, if the vehicle
approaches a detected lane marking
without using the turn lights in that
direction.
The system alerts by flashing a
together with three chimes, from the respective direction, if the lane is
departed significantly.
The system is only operable when a
lane marking is detected.
If the system only detects lane
markings on one side of the road, it
will only assist for this side.
Lane keep assist detects hands-free
driving. In this case a message in the
Driver Information Centre pops-up
and a chime sounds as long as lane
keep assist detects hands-free
driving.
Indication on Driver Assistance page
If the system is active but one or both
lanes are not detected, they appear
as a line of hollow dashes, as shown
on the right side of the vehicle in the
graphic above.
