DRIVER SUPPORT
If CTA has sensed that something is approaching
from the side, this is also indicated with:
•
an acoustic signal - the sound is heard in the
left-hand or right-hand speaker according to
the direction from which the object
approaches.
•
an illuminated icon in the PAS graphics on
the display screen.
•
an icon on the Park assist camera top view.
WARNING
CTA is a supplementary aid and does not
work in all situations.
CTA is no substitute for a safe driving style
and the use of rearview and door mirrors.
CTA can never replace the driver's responsi-
bility and attention - it is always the driver's
responsibility to reverse in a safe manner.
