mode. The LED in the button
illuminates to indicate activation.
Press q again to deactivate air
recirculation mode.
9 Warning
The exchange of fresh air is
reduced in air recirculation mode.
In operation without cooling the air humidity increases, so the
windows may mist up from inside.
The quality of the passenger
compartment air deteriorates,
which may cause the vehicle
occupants to feel drowsy.
In warm and very humid ambient air conditions, the windscreen may mist
up from outside when cold air is
directed towards it. If windscreen
mists up from outside, activate
windscreen wiper and deactivate w.

functional when the engine is running and fan is switched on.
Press A/C again to switch off cooling.
The air conditioning system cools and
dehumidifies (dries) as soon as the
outside temperature is slightly above
the freezing point. Therefore,
condensation may form and drip from
under the vehicle.
If no cooling or drying is required,
switch off the cooling system for fuel
saving reasons.

front obstacles is displayed by
changing distance lines in the Info Display 3 120.
If the vehicle stops for more than 3
seconds in a forward gear, if
automatic transmission is in P or if no
further obstacles are detected, no acoustic warning signals are given.
Deactivation

exceeds 10 km/h by pressing the
parking assist button é.Info Display without touchscreen

automatically the next time the
ignition is switched on.
System limitations
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, H
illuminates in the instrument cluster.
A message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.9 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.
Special attention must be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper.
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.
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.

Driving and operating195Side blind spot alert uses some of the
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.

T illuminates 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.

196Driving 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 12 and 140 km/h
● passing a vehicle with a speed difference of less than 10 km/h
● another vehicle is passing with a speed difference of less than
25 km/h
● 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 exterior mirrors or the detection zones on
front and rear bumper ar not
coveredNo 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
DeactivationInfo Display without touchscreen

cluster. Additionally, an acoustic
signal sounds.
The state of the system is stored
when switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically
deactivated when connecting a trailer
or bike carrier.
Due to adverse weather conditions
such as heavy rain, false detections
may occur.
Fault
In the event of a fault, T flashes for a
few moments in the instrument
cluster, accompanied by R and a
display message. Have the cause of
the fault remedied by a workshop.
Panoramic view system
This system allows views of the
vehicle's surroundings to be
displayed as a nearly 180° picture in
the Info display, like a bird's eye view.

Driving and operating197The system uses:● rear camera, installed in the tailgate
● ultrasonic parking assist sensors in the rear 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 displayed. The parking
sensors complete the information on
the view from above the vehicle.
Change the volume of the acoustic
signals by pressing 4 in the right
lower zone of the display.
Activation
Panoramic view system is activated
by:
● engaging reverse gear
● driving up to 10 km/h
Functionality
Different views can be selected in the left part of the display. Change the
type of view at any time during a
manoeuvre by touching in the left
lower zone of the display:
● Standard view
● AUTO Mode
● Zoom view
● 180° view
The display is immediately updated
with the type of view selected.
AUTO Mode is activated by default. In
this mode, the system selects the
best view, standard or zoom, to
display according to the information
from the parking sensors.
The state of the system is not kept in
memory when the ignition is switched
off.Rear view / Standard view
The area behind the vehicle is
displayed in the screen. The vertical
lines represent the width of the
vehicle with mirrors unfolded. The
direction of the lines changes with the position of the steering wheel.
The first horizontal line represents a
distance of about 30 cm beyond the
edge of vehicle's rear bumper. The
upper horizontal lines represent
distances of about 1 and 2 m beyond
the edge of the vehicle's rear bumper.
This view is available in AUTO Mode
or in the view selection menu.
