The graphic on the screen displays the scanned areas in several segments. The closer the vehicle drives towards an obstacle, the closer the
segment will move to the vehicle in the display. The collision area has been reached when the penultimate segment is displayed, if not before.
Do not drive on!
The yellow segments turn grey if an obstacle moves outside the vehicle's path due to a steering movement.
It can take a few seconds before the area scanned by the sensors is displayed on the screen of the factory-fitted infotainment system.
Signal tones
When the vehicle approaches an obstacle located in the range of the ultrasound sensors signal tones are given. An intermittent signal tone is
given if a sufficiently short distance between the vehicle and an obstacle is detected. The shorter the distance, the shorter the intervals. A
constant tone is output when the distance is less than 30 cm (12 inches). Do not drive on!
The intermittent signal tone will become quieter after a few seconds if the distance remains the same. The volume will remain constant if the
signal tone is continuous. The intermittent signal tone switches off automatically as soon as the vehicle moves away from an obstacle again. If
the vehicle moves towards an obstruction again, the intermittent signal tones are given automatically.
If the side areas are not displayed in the infotainment system screen display, signal tones will not be given for these areas.
There are different intermittent signal tones for the front and rear areas.
The warning signals can be adjusted in the infotainment system menu

Muting the ParkPilot signal tones

You can mute the signal tones from the ParkPilot by touching the
button again to switch the signal tones back on.
If the ParkPilot display has been switched off manually and ParkPilot remains active, the mute setting is also cancelled.

When a vehicle door is opened.
When the TCS is switched off.
When the TCS or ESC systems are taking corrective action.
