Entry into a perpendicular parking
slot
Activation
Colour Info Display: when searching
for a parking slot, activate the system by pressing Í. Select Driving
functions on the Info Display and then
Park Assist . Select Enter bay parking
space .
Slow down the vehicle speed below
19 mph.
Select parking side by switching on
the turn light on the respective side.
The allowed parallel distance
between the vehicle and a row of
parked cars is between 0.5 m and
1.5 m.
For entering into a perpendicular parking slot, the minimum width of the
slot must be equal to the width of your vehicle plus 0.7 m. When several
successive slots are found, the
vehicle will be directed towards the
last one.
When a free slot is detected, a visual
feedback on the Info Display and an
acoustic signal is given. Stop the
vehicle, select reverse gear, release
the steering wheel and start moving
without exceeding 4 mph.
Move forwards and backwards as
instructed by observing the warnings of the parking assist and paying
attention to the acoustic signals until
the end of manoeuvre is indicated.
When finished, $ extinguishes in the
instrument cluster.
During the parking manoeuvre, the
system is automatically deactivated
once the rear of the vehicle is within
50 cm of an obstacle.
Driving and operating191will 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 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.
Activation
Colour Info Display: press Í. Select
Driving functions on the Info Display
and then Blind spot sensors . Activate
the function.
B illuminates continously green in the
instrument cluster to confirm the
function.
Functionality
When the system detects a vehicle in the side blind zone while driving
forwards, an LED will illuminate in the
relevant exterior mirror.
The LED comes on immediately when being passed.
The LED comes on after a delay when
passing another vehicle slowly.
192Driving and operatingOperation conditions
The following conditions must be
fulfilled for proper operation:
● all vehicles are moving in the same direction and in adjacent
lanes
● the speed of your vehicle is between 7 and 87 mph
● passing a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 6 mph
● another vehicle is passing with a speed difference of less than
15 mph
● the traffic flow is normal
● driving on a straight or slightly curved road
● the vehicle is not pulling a trailer
● the sensors are not covered by mud, ice or snow
● the warning zones in the door mirrors or the detection zones on
front and rear bumper ar not
covered with adhesive labels or
other objectsNo alert will be given in the following
situations:
● in the presence of non-moving objects, e.g. parked vehicles,
barriers, street lamps, road signs
● with vehicles moving in the opposite direction
● driving on a winding road or a sharp corner
● when passing or being passed by
a very long vehicle, e.g. lorry,
coach, which is at the same time
detected at the rear in the blind
spot angle and present in the
driver's forward field of vision
● in very heavy traffic, vehicles detected in front and behind are
confused with a lorry or a
stationary object
● when passing too quickly
Deactivation The system is deactivated in the
vehicle personalisation 3 116. B
extinguishes in the instrument cluster.
Additionally, an acoustic signal
sounds.The 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 R and a display
message. Have the cause of the fault remedied by a workshop.
Passenger side camera
The passenger side camera monitors the side of the vehicle.
198Driving and operating● weather limits visibility, such asfog, rain, or snow
● the camera lenses are blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt.Clean the lense, rinse with water,
and wipe with a soft cloth
● the tailgate will be opened
● the vehicle is towing an electrically connected trailer,
bicycle carrier, etc.
● the vehicle had a rear end accident
● there are extreme temperature changes
Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. A front camera located at the top of the windscreen 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. The driver will then notice a turning
movement of the steering wheel. Turn steering wheel in same direction, ifsystem steers not sufficient. Turn
steering wheel gently into opposite
direction, if lane change is intended.
When the system steers to correct the trajectory of the vehicle, a flashes
yellow in the instrument cluster.
A warning message in the Driver
Information Centre accompanied by a
warning chime alerts the driver when
immediate driver´s action is required.
Unintended lane departure is not
assumed by the system when the turn lights are operated and during 20 s
after turn lights have been switched off.
Notice
The system may be switched off if it
detects lanes which are too narrow, too wide or too curved.
Following preconditions have to be
fullfilled:
● vehicle speed must be between 40 mph and 112 mph
● the driver must hold the steering wheel with both hands● the change of trajectory is notaccompanied by operation of theturn signals
● the Electronic Stability Control is activated and not in operation
● the vehicle is not connected to a trailer or an electric bicycle carrier
● normal driving behaviour (system
detects dynamic driving style, i.e. pressure on the brake or
accelerator pedal)
● roads with poor lane markings
● no spare wheel is used
● the driver needs to be active during the correction
● the vehicle is not driven in a tight
corner
