Advanced parking assist system
may not respond to changes in the
available parking space after
initiating a parking manoeuvre. The
system may recognize an entry, a
gateway, a courtyard or even a
crossing as a parking slot. After
selecting reverse gear the system
will 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 displaysa 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 light.

Lane departure warning
The lane departure warning system
observes the lane markings between
which the vehicle is driving via a front camera located at the top of thewindscreen. The system warns the
driver in the event of an unintendend
lane departure via visual and acoustic signals.
There is no lane departure warning
when the turn lights are operated and during 20 seconds after turn lights
have been switched off.9 Warning
This system is a driving aid that
cannot, in any circumstances,
replace the need for vigilance on
the part of the driver.
Activation
After ignition is switched on, the lane
departure warning system is
activated. If the system is activated,
the LED in the button ½ is not
illuminated. To activate the system
when the system is deactivated,
press ½.
The system is only operable at
vehicle speeds above 37 mph and if
lane markings are available.
When the system recognises an
unintended lane departure, the
control indicator ) flashes yellow.
Simultaneously a chime sound is
activated.
Deactivation

illuminated and ½ illuminates yellow in
the instrument cluster.
Driving and operating191At speeds below 37 mph the system
is inoperable.
Fault
In the event of a fault, C appears in
the instrument panel, accompanied
by a display message and a warning
chime. Contact a dealer or a qualified
workshop to have the system
checked.
System limitations The system performance may notoperate properly when:
● Vehicle speed is below 37 mph.
● Windscreen is not clean or affected by foreign objects, e.g.
stickers.
● Driving on winding or hilly roads. ● During nighttime driving.
● Adverse environmental conditions like heavy rain, snow,
direct sunlight or shadows.
● The sensor in the windscreen is blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud,dirt, windscreen damage or

stickers.● The sun is shining directly into the camera lens.
● Close vehicles ahead.
● Driving on banked roads.
● Driving on road edges.
● Driving on roads with poor lane markings.
● Sudden lighting changes.
The system can not operate when no
lane marking is detected.
Lane keep assist
Lane keep assist helps to avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. The front camera
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, if
system 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 seconds after turn lights have
been switched off.

clear water and a soft cloth. In case of heavy soiling, use leather care.
The instrument cluster and the
displays should only be cleaned using
a soft damp cloth. If necessary use a
weak soap solution.
Clean fabric upholstery with a
vacuum cleaner and brush. Remove
stains with an upholstery cleaner.
Clothing fabrics may not be
colourfast. This could cause visible
discolourations, especially on light-
coloured upholstery. Removable
stains and discolourations should be
cleaned as soon as possible.
Clean seat belts with lukewarm water or interior cleaner.Caution
Close Velcro fasteners and open
Velcro fasteners on clothing could damage seat upholstery.
The same applies to clothing with
sharp-edged objects, e.g. zips,
belts or studded jeans.
Plastic and rubber parts
