WARNING

The system does not relieve you of your per-

sonal responsibility to assess the traffic situa-

tion correctly. Due to system limits, it cannot

respond independently and appropriately in

all traffic situations. There is a risk of acci-

dent. Adapt your driving style to the traffic

conditions. Observe the traffic situation, be

ready to take over steering and braking at

any time, and actively intervene if the situa-

tion warrants it.

Park assistance systems

Parking assistance lines

1. Position the vehicle so that the red turning

circle line is within the boundaries of the

parking space.

Driving lane lines

2. Turn the steering wheel so that the green

driving lane line covers the corresponding

turning circle line.

Obstacle marking

The driving lane lines help in estimating the

space requirement when parking and manoeu-

vring on a level road surface.

Depending on the gear engaged, the driving

lane lines are displayed in front of or behind

the vehicle.

The driving lane lines are continuously adap-

ted to the steering wheel movements depend-

ing on the steering wheel angle.

Obstacles are detected by the sensors.

Obstacles detected by Park Distance Control

are marked on the camera image.

Coloured gradations of the obstacle markings

in green, yellow and red indicate the distances.

Turning circle lines

Functional limitations

The system can only be used to a restricted

extent in the following situations:

▷

With a door open.

With open luggage compartment.

With the exterior mirrors folded in.

Areas with grey hatching with an icon in the

camera image identify areas that are currently

not shown, for example an open door.

Turning circle lines can only be superimposed

on the camera image together with lanes.

The lines show the course of the smallest pos-

sible turning circle on a level road.

Once the steering wheel has been turned be-

yond a certain angle, only one turning circle

line is displayed.

Reversing Assist Camera

Safety information

Principle

The Reversing Assist Camera assists in re-

verse parking and manoeuvring. It does this

by showing an image of the area behind the

vehicle on the control display.

WARNING

Due to system limitations, the system may

not respond at all, or may respond too late,

incorrectly or for no reason. There is a risk of

accident or material damage. Observe the in-

formation on the system limits and intervene

actively if necessary.

Additional displays can be shown in the dis-

play, for example parking assistance lines and

obstacle marking.

General

Follow the information in the Chapter “Parking

assistance systems”.

Detection of objects

The system cannot detect very low obstacles

and higher, protruding objects such as ledges.

Switching the camera view on

automatically

The Reversing Assist Camera is automatically

turned on if selector lever position R is en-

gaged while drive-ready state is turned on.

The objects shown in the control display may

be closer than they appear. Do not estimate

the distance to the objects on the control dis-

play.

Projecting loads, rear luggage racks, or trailers

can restrict the detection range of the camera.

Switching the camera view off

automatically

When driving forwards, the Reversing Assist

Camera turns off automatically when a certain

distance or speed is exceeded, if necessary.

Malfunction

Failure of one camera is shown on the control

display.

The detection range of the failed camera is

displayed hatched on the control display.

Depending on the engaged selector lever posi-

tion, the camera view of the Reversing Assist

Camera or front camera will be displayed.

General

Road users hidden by obstacles at the side

may not be seen from the driver's seat until

very late. The front camera and the Reversing

Assist Camera capture the area around the

side of the vehicle to improve the view.

Automatic activation of the

panorama view

The camera image is subject to varying levels

of distortion in some areas and is thus not suit-

able for estimating distances.

Principle

For objects behind the vehicle, the acoustic

warning is given sooner, at a distance of ap-

prox. 1.50 m, 5 ft.

General

An intermittent tone indicates that the vehicle

is approaching an object. For example, if an

object is detected to the rear left of the vehicle,

the sound is emitted from the rear left loud-

speaker.

Press the

icon in the status field at the top

of the control display.

No audible warning is emitted during active

parking.

The shorter the distance to an object, the

shorter the intervals of the intermittent tones.

When the Park Distance Control is switched

on again, the acoustic warning is automatically

switched on again.

A continuous tone sounds if the distance to

a detected object is less than approximately

20 cm, 8 in.

Visual warning

An alternating continuous tone sounds from

the front and rear loudspeakers if there are

objects in front and behind the vehicle at the

same time and at a distance of less than ap-

proximately 20 cm, 8 in.

General

When you are approaching an object, its prox-

imity is displayed on the control display and in

the instrument cluster as soon as the system is

activated.

The intermittent tones and the continuous tone

are turned off when selector lever position P is

engaged.

Objects that are farther away are already dis-

played before a signal sounds.

Depending on the national-market version, the

interval tones are switched off after a short

time with the vehicle at a standstill.

Depending on the view, driving lane lines,

turning circle lines and obstacle markings are

shown for a better estimation of the space re-

quired.

If an object approaches when the vehicle is

stationary, the acoustic signal is reactivated.

Depending on the equipment, the detection

range of the sensors is represented by hatched

ring-shaped areas. Markings in green, yellow

and red indicate when obstacles are detected

in the detection range.

WARNING

Depending on the equipment, the de-

on the control display.

The system does not relieve you of your per-

sonal responsibility to assess the traffic situa-

tion correctly. Due to system limits, it cannot

respond independently and appropriately in

all traffic situations. There is a risk of acci-

dent. Adapt your driving style to the traffic

conditions. Observe the traffic situation, be

ready to take over steering and braking at

Active Park Distance Control

WARNING

Principle

When the trailer tow hitch is in use, the as-

sistance system cannot react correctly if its

sensors are obstructed. There is a risk of

accident or material damage. Do not use

the assistance system in trailer operation or

when using the trailer tow hitch, for example

with a bicycle carrier.

The Park Distance Control brake function ini-

tiates emergency braking if there is an immi-

nent risk of collision.

General

Due to the system limits, a collision cannot be

prevented under all circumstances.

The function is available at speeds below

walking speed when reversing or rolling back.

Sensors

The system is controlled using the following

sensors:

Pressing the accelerator pedal suppresses the

brake intervention. Emergency braking is not

performed.

▷

Ultrasonic sensors in the rear bumpers.

Side ultrasonic sensors.

After emergency braking to a stop, it is possi-

ble to continue a slow approach to the obsta-

cle. To approach, lightly depress the accelera-

tor pedal and release it again.

Temporarily deactivating Active

Park Distance Control

If the accelerator pedal is depressed for longer,

the vehicle pulls away. Manual braking is pos-

sible at any time.

After emergency braking, the function can be

temporarily deactivated on the control display.

1. "Obstacle detected. Emergency braking."

2. "Deactivate temporarily"

Follow the information in the Chapter “Parking

assistance systems”.

If the journey is continued in these environ-

mental conditions, no further emergency

braking is performed.
