Park Distance Control
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Switching on and off
⇒ Display representation
⇒ Settings
⇒ Troubleshooting
The Park Distance Control system
assists the driver when manoeuvring
and parking.
Park Distance Control detects the distance from an obstacle by means of sensors in the front and
rear bumpers ⇒ Vehicle overviews. If there is an obstacle in the detection range of the sensors, the
system indicates this on the Infotainment system and by means of signal tones.
System limits
The sensors may not always be able to detect objects such as trailer drawbars, thin rails, fences,
posts, trees, very low or high obstacles and open or opening boot lids.
In some cases, dirt and ice on the sensors could be registered as an obstacle.
Switching on and off
Fig. 153 In the centre console: button for switching Park Distance Control on and off (depending on
equipmentyf.
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Switching on Park Distance Control
•Select reverse gear.
•OR: press the button or .
The intelligent technology used in the parking systems cannot overcome the laws of
physics, and functions only within the limits of the system. Never let the extra
convenience afforded by the parking systems tempt you into taking any risks when
driving. The parking systems cannot replace the full concentration of the driver.
•Always adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions.
•Unintentional vehicle movements can cause serious injury.
•Keep looking in the direction in which you are parking and at the relevant area
surrounding the vehicle.
•Do not allow the displays in the instrument cluster and the images shown in the
Infotainment system to distract you from the traffic.
•Always monitor the area around the vehicle as the parking systems will not always
detect infants, animals and objects.
•The parking systems have blind spots in which obstacles and people are not
registered.
•External sources of sound and certain surfaces on objects and clothing may influence
the sensors' signals. In certain circumstances, the systems will be unable to detect or
properly detect people and objects.
•Certain objects, for example narrow posts or railings, may be difficult or impossible to
see on the screen because of its low resolution or poor light conditions.
•When approaching objects at high speeds, the parking systems' signals and displays
may not respond quickly enough to emit a warning.

⇒ Parking parallel to the road (mode 2yf
⇒ Troubleshooting
The rear view camera system in the
rear of the vehicle makes it easier for
the driver to see behind the vehicle and
provides support for parking
manoeuvres.
The rear view camera system shows the area behind the vehicle on the Infotainment system
screen. Depending on the operating mode, orientation lines support the view to the rear.
Modes for the rear view camera system
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the following operating modes are available:

•Perpendicular parking (mode 1yf: reverse parking perpendicular to the road.
•Parallel parking (mode 2yf: reverse parking parallel to the road.
•Trailer support (mode 3yf: support when hitching a trailer to the vehicle.
•Crossing traffic (mode 4yf: observing crossing traffic.
System limits
The rear view camera system shows only two-dimensional images on the screen. The lack of depth
of field means that potholes and protruding objects on the ground may only be detected with
difficulty, or may not be detected at all.
The rear view camera system may not always be able to detect objects such as thin rails, fences,
posts, trees etc. This could result in damage to your vehicle.
