Park Assist Camera limitations
The Park Assist Camera may not be able todetect all conditions in all situations and func-tionality may therefore be limited.
The driver should be aware of the following limi-tations for the Park Assist Camera:

WARNING
Be extra cautious whenreversing if this symbol isshown when a trailer, bikecarrier or similar is attachedand electrically connectedto the vehicle.
The symbol indicates thatthe rear parking assist sensors are deacti-vated and will not warn of any obstacles.

NOTE
A bike carrier and other accessories mountedon the rear of the vehicle can obscure thecamera's view.
Blind sectors
There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields ofvision.
With 360° view selected, objects/obstacles maynot be detected if they are located in the "joints"where the edges of the individual camera viewsmeet.

WARNING
Even if it seems as though only a fairly smallsection of the screen image is obstructed, thismay mean that a relatively large sector is hid-den and obstacles there may not be detecteduntil they are very near the vehicle.
Defective camera
If a camera sector is dark andcontains this symbol, this indi-cates that the camera is notfunctioning properly.
See the following illustration foran example.
The vehicle's left-side camera is malfunctioning.

Dark camera sector
A dark camera sector may also be displayed inthe following situations, but without the defectivecamera symbol:
a door is open
the tailgate is open
a rearview mirror is folded in

Leveling control* and suspension
The vehicle's leveling control system adjusts thesuspension and shock absorbers automaticallyto help provide good comfort and control whiledriving. Leveling can also be controlled manuallyto facilitate loading or getting in and out of thevehicle.

Pneumatic suspension and shock
absorbers
The system is adapted to the selected drivemode and vehicle speed. The pneumatic suspen-sion reduces the vehicle's ground clearance athigher speeds to reduce air resistance andincrease stability. The shock absorbers are nor-mally set to provide the best possible comfortand are adjusted continuously according to theroad surface and the vehicle's acceleration, brak-ing and cornering.
The instrument panel indicateswhen the suspension level isbeing adjusted.
The following apply if a door or the tailgate isopened:
If a door is opened, the level can only beadjusted upwards.
If the tailgate is open, the level can only beadjusted downwards.

Parking
When parking, make sure that there is adequatespace above and below the vehicle since groundclearance may vary depending on e.g. ambient
temperature, how the vehicle is loaded, if loadingmode is used, which drive mode is selected afterthe engine is started, etc.
The level may also be adjusted a period after thevehicle is parked. This is to compensate for anyheight changes that may occur due to tempera-ture changes in the air springs when the vehiclecools.
Transporting
When transporting the vehicle on a ferry, train ortruck, only secure (lash) the vehicle around thetires, not using any other parts of the chassis.Changes in the pneumatic suspension may occurduring transport, which could adversely affect thelashing and result in damage.

Distribute the load evenly throughout theload carriers. Place heavier cargo at the bot-tom of the load.
Check periodically to ensure that the loadcarriers and load are properly secured.Secure the load firmly using tie straps orsimilar.
If the load is longer than the vehicle, such asa canoe or kayak, attach the towing eyelet inits front outlet and secure the tie straps in it.
The vehicle's wind resistance and fuel con-sumption increase with the size of the load.
Drive smoothly. Avoid rapid acceleration, hardbraking and fast cornering.

WARNING
The vehicle's center of gravity and drivingcharacteristics are altered by roof loads.
Follow the vehicle's specifications regardingweights and maximum permitted load.
