& WARNING Risk of accident due to restric-
ted detection performance of vehicle sen-
sors and cameras
If the area around vehicle sensors or cameras
is covered, damaged or dirty, certain driving
and safety systems cannot function correctly.
There is a risk of an accident.
Keep the area around vehicle sensors or
#
cameras clear of any obstructions and
clean.
Have damage to the bumper, radiator
#
grille or stone chipping in the area of the
front and rear windows repaired at a
qualified specialist workshop.
Driving and parking 175
In particular, keep the areas around the sensors
and cameras free of dirt, ice or slush
(
page 310). The sensors and cameras must
/
not be covered and the detection ranges around
them must be kept free. Do not attach any addi-
tional license plate brackets, advertisements,
stickers or foils – including those protecting
against stone chippings – in the detection range
of the sensors and cameras. Make sure that there
are no overhanging loads protruding into the
detection range.
If the bumper or radiator grille is damaged or after
an impact, have the function of the sensors
checked at a qualified specialist workshop. Have
damage or stone chipping in the area of the cam-
eras on the front and rear windows repaired at a
qualified specialist workshop.
