When reversing, the area should
be free from obstacles which could impact on the underside of the
vehicle.

vehicle handling. In the event of
such an impact, consult a
workshop.
Basic notes on parking assist
system
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 sensors 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 involved (e.g.
off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification 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.
The parking assist system will not
detect objects which are out of the detection range of the sensors.
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
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
The system is activated when the
speed of the vehicle is between
approx. 30 km/h and 140 km/h.
262Driving and operatingDeactivation
The system is deactivated by
pressing Q. A corresponding
message appears in the Driver
Information Centre to indicate that the
system is switched off.
At speeds below 60 km/h the system is inoperable.
Operation hints
The lane departure warning system
may not operate properly when:
● The windscreen is not clean.● There are adverse environmental
conditions like heavy rain, snow,
direct sunlight or shadows.
● Lane departure is very fast.
● Acceleration is very strong.
● Bends are tight.
● Driving continuously on a line.
The system cannot operate when no
lane marking is detected.Fault
In the event of a fault in the system, a warning message appears in the
Driver Information Centre (possibly in
combination with control indicator
j ).
Seek the assistance of a workshop.
Driver Information Centre 3 105.Fuel
Fuel for diesel engines The Diesel engines are compatible
with bio-fuels that conform to current and future European standards and
can be obtained from filling stations:
Diesel fuel that meets standard
EN590 mixed with a biofuel that
meets standard EN14214 (possibly
containing up to 7% Fatty Acid Methyl
Ester).
