System limits
Engine power
The set speed is also maintained downhill,
but may not be maintained on uphill grades
if engine power is insufficient.
Park Distance Control
Principle
Park Distance Control assists with parking.
The system detects objects behind the vehi-
cle. If equipped with Park Distance Control
in the front, objects in front of the vehicle
are also detected. Objects that you are ap-
proaching slowly are indicated by signal
tones and a visual display.
General information
The ultrasound sensors for measuring the
distances are located in the bumpers.
Online Edition for Part no. 01405A541E1 - II/22
Driving comfort
The range, depending on obstacles and en-
vironmental conditions, is approx.
6 ft/2 m.
An acoustic warning is first given in the fol-
lowing situations:
– By the front middle sensors and the two
corner sensors at approx. 24 in/60 cm
from the object.
– By the rear middle sensors at ap-
prox. 5 ft/1.50 m from the object.
– When a collision is imminent.
Safety information
Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute
for the driver's personal judgment in as-
sessing the traffic situation. Based on the
limits of the system, it cannot independ-
ently react to all traffic situations. There is
a risk of accident. Adjust driving style to
traffic conditions. Check surrounding traf-
fic and vehicle's surroundings closely and
actively intervene where appropriate.
Warning
Due to high speeds when the Park Dis-
tance Control is activated, the warning can
be delayed due to physical circumstances.
There is a risk of injury or risk of damage
to property. Avoid approaching an object
too fast. Avoid driving off quickly while
Park Distance Control is not yet active.
