WARNING
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
■
be observed » page 105, in section Introduction.
Moving persons or objects may not be recognized by the system sensors.
■
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
■
clothing cannot reflect the system signals. For this reason, such people or
objects may not be recognised by the system sensors.
External noise sources may affect the signals of the system sensors. Un-
■
der adverse conditions, this may cause objects or people not to be recog-
nised by the system.
Before reversing, you should make sure that there are no small obstacles,
■
such as rocks, thin posts, trailer draw-bars etc. in front or behind your vehi-
cle. Such obstacles may not be recognised by the system sensors.
CAUTION
Keep the system sensors » Fig. 115
■
and do not cover with any objects of any kind, otherwise the system function-
ing may be impaired.
Under adverse weather conditions (heavy rain, water vapour, very low or
■
high temperatures, etc.), the system function may be limited - "incorrect recog-
nition of obstacle".
Accessories additionally installed on the vehicle rear, such as bicycle carriers,
■
can impair the system function.
