Pa rking Assist PARKTRONIC de tects an obs ta‐
cle in the path of theve hicle, a pop-up window
with the appropriate warning display appears in
th e media display at speeds below appr ox‐
imately 10km/h.
The colou red segments show the dis tance
between the sensors and the obs tacle de tected:
1 Yellow warning displa y:obs tacles at a dis‐

2 Orange warning displa y:obs tacles at a
medium di stance between appr ox. 0.3 m
and 0.6 m
3 Redwa rning displa y:obs tacles at a very
short dis tance of appr ox. 0.3 m or less
When Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is operational
and no object is de tected, no segments are
