Parking Assist PARKTRONIC

Important safety notes
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is an electronic
parking aid with ultrasound. It monitors the area
around your vehicle using six sensors in the
front bumper and four sensors in the rear
bumper. Parking Assist PARKTRONIC shows you
the distance between your vehicle and a detec-
ted obstacle visually and audibly.
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is only an aid. It is
not a replacement for your attention to your
immediate surroundings. You are always
mes-
System SPORT + SPORT + mes-
System COMFORT COMFORT mes-
responsible for safe maneuvering, parking and
exiting a parking space. Make sure that there
are no persons, animals or objects etc., in the
maneuvering area while maneuvering and park-
ing or exiting parking spaces.
!
When parking, pay particular attention to
objects above or below the sensors, such as
flower pots or trailer drawbars. Parking Assist
PARKTRONIC does not detect such objects
when they are in the immediate vicinity of the
vehicle. You could damage the vehicle or the
objects.
The sensors may not detect snow and other
objects that absorb ultrasonic waves.
Ultrasonic sources such as an automatic car
wash, the compressed-air brakes of a truck or
a pneumatic drill could cause Parking Assist
PARKTRONIC to malfunction.
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC may not function
correctly on uneven terrain.
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is activated auto-
matically when you:
switch on the ignition
R
shift the transmission to position h, k or
R

Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is deactivated at
speeds above approx. 11 mph (18 km/h). It is
reactivated at lower speeds.
