How it works

– Sensors have certain areas in which they

cannot detect the surroundings. Objects, an-

imals and persons in these areas may be de-

tected only to a limited extent or not at all.

Always monitor the road and the area

around the vehicle; do not rely on the sen-

sors alone, and do not allow yourself to be-

come distracted.

The parking aid plus will help you when parking

and manoeuvring the vehicle by providing warn-

ings about any obstacles detected. If an obstacle

is detected by the ultrasonic sensors on the vehi-

cle ðpage 172, Fig. 116, you are informed of

this by acoustic and visual warnings.

from the kerb to avoid damaging the wheel

rims.
