Park Assist limitations
Assist*
Park Assist may not be able to detect all con-
ditions in all situations and functionality may
therefore be limited in certain cases.
The driver should be aware of the following
limitations for Park Assist:
The Park Assist function can be activated or
deactivated.
Park Assist's front and side sensors are auto-
matically activated when the engine is started.
The rear sensors are activated if the vehicle is
moving backward or reverse gear is engaged.
WARNING
Activate or deactivate the
function using this button in
the center display's Function
view.
The parking sensors have dead/blind
spots where objects cannot be
detected.
•
Pay particular attention to people and
animals near the vehicle.
•
•
The warning signal will begin pulsating rapidly when
the obstacle is less than approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from
the vehicle.
Bear in mind that the front end of the
vehicle may swing out towards oncom-
ing traffic during the parking maneuver.
GREEN button indicator light – the func-
tion is activated.
•
•
Park Assist's side sensors are automatically
activated when the engine is started. They are
active at speeds below 10 km/h (6 mph).
GRAY button indicator light – the function
is deactivated.
WARNING
The distance monitored is approx. 25 cm
(0.8 ft) out from the sides.
In vehicles equipped with Park Assist Cam-
era*, Park Assist can also be activated or deac-
tivated from the relevant camera view.
Be extra cautious when
reversing if this symbol is
shown when a trailer, bike
carrier or similar is
attached and electrically
connected to the vehicle.
The detection area of the side sensors increa-
ses significantly, however, when the steering
angle of the front wheel increases and
depending on the position of the steering
wheel, obstacles up to approx. 90 cm (3 ft)
diagonally behind or in front of the vehicle can
be detected.
