Driving and parking
sors in the front bumper and six sensors in the
rear bumper. Parking Assist PARKTRONIC indi‐
cates visually and audibly the distance between
your vehicle and an object.
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is only an aid. It is
not a substitute for your attention to the sur‐
roundings. You are always responsible for safe
manoeuvring, parking and exiting of a parking
space. Make sure that there are no persons, ani‐
mals or objects etc., in the manoeuvring area
while manoeuvring and parking or exiting parking
spaces.
In the standard setting, an intermittent warning
tone sounds from a distance of approximately
0.4 m to an obstacle. A continuous tone sounds
from a distance of approximately 0.3 m. You can
set the warning tone in the multimedia system so
that it will sound earlier at a greater distance of
approximately 1 m ( page 156).
