System limits
Objects located above or below the detection
range of Parking Assist PARKTRONIC or Active
Parking Assist are not detected when the park‐
ing space is being measured. These are also not
taken into account when the parking maneuver
is calculated, e.g. overhanging loads, overhangs
or loading ramps of trucks or the boundaries of
parking spaces. In some circumstances, Active
Parking Assist may therefore guide you into the
parking space prematurely.
& WARNING Risk of accident due to
objects located above or below the
detection range of Active Parking Assist
If there are objects above or below the
detection range, the following situations may
arise:
Active Parking Assist may steer too early.
R
Vehicles with automatic transmis‐
R
sion: The vehicle may not stop in front of
these objects.
This could cause a collision.
In these situations, do not use Active
#
Parking Assist.
Snowfall or heavy rain may lead to a parking
space being measured inaccurately. Parking
spaces that are partially occupied by trailer
drawbars might not be identified as such or be
measured incorrectly. Only use Active Parking
Assist on level, high-grip ground.
Do not use Active Parking Assist in the following
situations:
In extreme weather conditions such as ice,
R
packed snow or in heavy rain.
When transporting a load that protrudes
R
beyond the vehicle.
If the parking space is on a steep downhill or
R
uphill gradient.
When snow chains are installed.
R
Active Parking Assist may also display parking
spaces that are not suitable for parking, e.g. the
following:
Parking spaces where parking is prohibited.
R
Parking spaces on unsuitable surfaces.
R
Active Parking Assist will not assist you with
parking spaces at right angles to the direction of
travel in the following situations:
If two parking spaces are located immedi‐
R
ately next to each other.
If the parking space is immediately next to a
R
low obstacle such as a curb.
