Objects that are above or below the detection
range of Active Parking Assist, e.g. protruding
loads, overhangs or loading ramps of trucks or
boundaries of parking spaces, are not detected
when measuring the parking space. These are
also then not taken into account when calculating
the parking procedure. In some circumstances,
Active Parking Assist may therefore guide you into
the parking space prematurely or brake too late.
Certain environmental conditions, suchas 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. Use
Active Parking Assist only on level, high-grip
ground.
& 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 detec-
tion range, the following situations may arise:
Active Parking Assist may steer too early.
R
The vehicle may not stop in front of these
R
objects.
There is a danger of collision!
In these situations, do not use Active
#
Parking Assist.
Active Parking Assist can also display unsuitable
parking spaces, e.g. parking spaces in which
parking is not permitted or parking spaces on
unsuitable surfaces.
Do not use Active Parking Assist in the following
situations:
In extreme weather conditions suchas 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
