Rear parking aid
Description
Applies to: vehicles with rear parking aid

The
rear parking aid is an acoustic parking
sys­

tem.
Description
Sensors are located in the rear bumper. When
the sensors detect an obstacLe, you are alerted by
acoustic signals (beeps).
Please ensure that the sensors are kept free of
stickers, deposits and any other substances
which could impair the function of the system.
Notes on cleaning

The measuring range of the sensors starts at
about:
Rear Side
Centre
0.90 m
1.60 m
The acoustic signals sound with increasing
fre­

quency as you approach the obstacle. A warning
tone will sound continuously when the vehicLe is
less than approx. 0.30 m away from the obstacLe.
Stop reversing immediately

The volume of the warning beeps will be reduced
after
a
few seconds until it is muted if the vehicLe
remains at a constant distance from a detected
obstacle (but not if the obstacle is closer than
0.30 m). If the tone is muted and the obstacLe
comes closer than before, the tone will sound

again.
If the tone is muted and the obstacle is
further away than before, no tone will sound.
Please watch the area surrounding the vehicle
when driving off.
Activating
The parking aid is switched on automatically
when reverse gear is engaged. You will hear a
brief acknowledgement tone.
Parking system plus
Description
Applies to: vehicles with parking system plus/park assist

The
parking system plus provides acoustic and
visual assistance when parking.

Fig.
124 Diagram
Sensors are located in the front and rear bump­

ers.
When the sensors detect an obstacle, you are
alerted by acoustic signals (beeps) and a graphic
display.
Please ensure that the sensors are kept free of
stickers, deposits and any other substances
which could impair the function of the system.

Important: For the best parking result, you
should maintain a distance of approx. 1 metre to
the row of parked cars.

•
To switch between parallel
(Â)
perpendicular
forwards
(B)
and perpendicular in reverse (?)
parking modes, turn the rotary pushbutton to
select the desired mode. The system only
shows parking modes that are currently possi­

ble.

•
Operate the turn signal. The desired side of the
road will be scanned.

•
To park parallel to the roadside, drive forwards
at not more than 30 km/h. Or:

•
To park perpendicular to the roadside, drive
forwards at not more than 20 km/h.

•
The system will display
a
parking space when it
finds one
^Fig.
137. Please check that the
parking space is suitable for your vehicle.

•
To park using the system, follow the instruc­
tions on the display.
If
you
exceed a speed of about 50 km/h, the park
assist will be switched off.
The park assist will display
a
parking space only if
it is Long and wide enough for the vehicLe.
© Note
-You can select any one of the parking op­
tions found. The potential parking space is
displayed until you have driven too far away
from it.
- You can activate the park assist after you
have already driven past a parking space (as
long as you were driving slowly enough). To
do so, press the
P©
button and operate the
turn signal.
- The system displays the right or left side of
the
road,
depending on which turn signals
you operate.
- The best parking results will be achieved if
you position the vehicle as parallel as possi­
ble to the line of parked cars or the kerb be­
fore you start the actual parking manoeu­

vre.

- If there are suitable parking spaces on both
sides of the road (for instance on a one-way
street), you can change the direction of the
turn signals to park on the other side, even
if
you
have already activated the park assist.

WARNING
You should switch on the off-road mode or
switch off the ESC/traction control system
(ASR) only if your driving ability and the traf­
fic conditions allow you to do so safely -
dan­

ger of skidding!
- The stabilising function is restricted when
off-road mode is switched on. The driven
wheels may start to
spin,
causing the
vehi­

cle to lose grip, in particular on slippery or
wet roads.
- When the ESC/traction control system
(ASR) is switched off, the vehicle will not be

stabilised.

Brakes
New brake pads
New brake pads do not give full braking effect for
the first 400 km, they must first be "bedded in".
However, you can compensate for the slightly re­
duced braking effect by applying more pressure
on the brake pedal. Avoid placing a heavy load on
the brakes during the running-in period.
Wear
The rate of wear on the brake pads depends a
great deal on how you drive and the conditions in
which the vehicLe is operated. Negative factors

are,
for instance, city traffic, frequent short trips
or hard driving with abrupt starts and stops.
Noises
Brake noise may develop in certain situations, de­
pending on the speed, braking force and ambient
conditions (such as temperature and relative hu­
midity).
Effect of moisture and salt
In certain conditions, such as in heavy
rain,
early
morning dew, or after washing the car or driving
through water, the full braking effect can be de­
layed by moisture (or in winter by ice) on the
discs and brake pads. The brakes should be
< "dried" by pressing the pedal to restore full brak-

R
ing effect.
When you are driving at higher speeds with the
windscreen wipers on, the brake pads are very
briefly brought into contact with the brake discs.
This automatic process which goes unnoticed by
the driver is carried out at regular intervals and is
intended to improve braking response in wet
con­

ditions.
The effectiveness of the brakes can also be
tem­

porarily reduced if the car is driven for some dis­
tance without using the brakes when there is a
lot of salt on the road in winter. The layer of salt
that accumulates on the discs and pads can be
removed with a few cautious brake applications.
Corrosion
There may be a tendency for dirt to build up on
the brake pads and corrosion to form on the discs
if the car is used infrequently, or if
you
only drive
low mileages without using the brakes very

much.

If the brakes are not used frequently, or if corro­
sion has formed on the discs, it is advisable to
clean off the pads and discs by braking firmly a
few times from a moderately high speed
•=> A-

Faults in the brake system
If the brake pedal travel should ever increase
suddenly, this may mean that one of the two
brake circuits has failed. Drive immediately to the
nearest qualified workshop and have the fault

rectified.
On the way to the dealer, be prepared
to use more pressure on the brake pedal and al­
low for longer stopping distances.
Low brake fluid level
Malfunctions can occur in the brake system if the
brake fluid level is too low. The brake fluid level
is monitored electronically.
Brake servo
The brake servo amplifies the pressure you apply
to the brake pedal. It only works when the engine
is running. •
