Parking Assist PARKTRONIC
Function of Parking Assist PARKTRONIC
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is an electronic
parking assistance system which monitors the
area surrounding your vehicle and shows you the
distance between the vehicle and a detected
obstacle visually and audibly.
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is only an aid. It is
not a substitute for your attention to the sur‐
roundings. The responsibility for safe maneuver‐
ing and parking remains with you. Make sure
that there are no persons, animals or objects in
the maneuvering area while maneuvering and
parking in/exiting parking spaces.
The passive side impact protection also warns
you of obstacles to the side. During the parking
procedure or maneuvering, objects are detected
as the vehicle drives past. If you steer in the
direction of a detected obstacle and there is a
risk of a lateral collision, a warning is issued. In
order for an object on the side to be detected,
the sensors in the front and rear bumper must
first detect the object while you are driving past
it.
In order for front or rear obstacles to the side to
be displayed, the vehicle must first travel a dis‐
tance of at least half a vehicle length. Once the
vehicle has traveled one vehicle length, obsta‐
cles on all sides can be shown.
