WARNING
ARNING Risk of accident due torestric-
te d de tection per form ance of vehicle sen-
sors and cameras
If th e area around vehicle senso rsor cameras
is co vered, damaged or dirty, cer tain driving
and saf ety sy stems cannot function co rrectl y.
There is a risk of an accident. #
Keep the area around vehicle senso rsor
cameras clear of any obst ructions and
clean. #
Have damage tothe bumper, radiator
gr ille or stone chipping in the area of the
front and rear wind owsre paired at a
qu ali/ed specialist workshop. Pa
rticular ly,ke ep the areas around the sensors
and cameras free of dirt, ice or slush
(/ page 373). The sensors and cameras must
not be co vered and the de tection ranges around
th em must be kept free. Do not at tach additional licence plate brac
kets, advertisements, stic kers,
fo ils or foils toprotect against stone chippings in
th e de tection range of the sensors and cameras.
Make sure that there are no overhanging loads
pr otru ding into the de tection range.
If th ere is damage toa bumper or thera diator
gr ille, or aTer an impact, ha vethe function of the
senso rschecked at a quali/ed specialist work-
shop. Ha vedamage or stone chipping in the area
of the cameras on the front and rear wind ows
re paired at a quali/ed specialist workshop.

can set this speed with the permanent limiter.
Yo u do this by limiting the speed between

Shortly before the set speed is reached, it
appears in the driver's displa y.When you con/rm
