WARNING
How it works
Please note the safety precautions and system
limitations of the supporting systems, sen-
sors and cameras ðpage 171 to ðpage 174.
The manoeuvre assist helps the driver when park-
ing and manoeuvring by using sensors to monitor
the area at the front, rear and side of the vehicle.
In the event of an impending collision with an-
other object, the system intervenes, within cer-
tain system limits, and attempts to prevent a col-
lision by braking the vehicle. The system can de-
tect objects higher than approx. 20 cm.
Note
– The system is only partially available if tow-
ing mode is detected. The white frame is
not displayed in the areas which are inac-
tive. If the towing bracket is not factory-fit-
ted the functions may not be deactivated
automatically.
Display overview
The symbols and indicators 1 – 4 show the sta-
tus and availability of the manoeuvre assist.
– If the indicator lamp flashes while the
vehicle is in motion, the ESC is intervening
and the manoeuvre assist is cancelled.
