Starting-off and Driving
You should satisfy yourself before parking that there is no small obstacle, such
as a rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., in front or behind your vehicle. Such an
obstacle might not be within the range detected by the sensors.
Under certain circumstances, surfaces or structures of certain objects such as
wire mesh fences, powder snow etc., cannot be recognised by the system.
The evaluation of the parking place and the parking procedure depends on the
circumference of the wheels. Under certain circumstances, the system may not
function correctly if your vehicle is mounted with wheels of non-permissible size,
snow chains or a temporary spare wheel (in order to reach the nearest workshop).
If the tyres other than those excepted by the manufacturer are mounted, the
resulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This can be
avoided through new calibration of the system in a specialist garage.
The accuracy of the evaluation for the parking space can be influenced by the
incorrectly determined outside temperature if the later is influenced by the thermal
radiation of the engine i.e for stop and go in a traffic jam.
In order to avoid damaging the sensors while cleaning with high-pressure
cleaners or steam jets, the sensors must only be directly sprayed for short periods
while a minimum distance of 10 cm must be observed.
Note
A component of the park assist is the front and rear parking aid.
The electronic stability programme (ESP) must always be switched on for the
parking procedure.
Only the front parking aid operates if you are towing a trailer (applies only to
models which feature a factory-fitted towing device). This is why it is not possible
to park backwards with the help of the park assist when towing a trailer.
The sensors must be kept clean and free of ice to enable the parking aid to
operate properly.

Drive past the parking row up to maximum 30 km/h and with a distance of 0.5 m
to 1.5 m
 fig.
135.
Operate the turn signal for the driver's side if you wish to park on this side of the
road. In the information display the search area for the parking space is indicated on
the driver's side.
If the button is pressed above a speed of 30 km/h, the display appears in the display
of the instrument cluster as soon as you drive slower than 30 km/h.
Note
If the park assist is switched on, a yellow warning light lights up in the button.
The search for suitable parking spaces is automatic after switching on the igni-
tion at speeds of more than 30 km/h. Searching for a parking space is performed at
the same time on the driver and front passenger side.
If the sensors find a suitable parking space, they store its parameters until
another suitable parking space has been found or until a distance of 10 m had been
driven after finding the parking space. This is why it is possible to switch on the park
assist after driving past the parking space and the information on whether this
parking space is suitable for parking appears in the information display.
