▷ On: the LED illuminates.
▷ Off: the LED goes out.

Acoustic warning
General information
An intermittent tone indicates when the vehicle
is approaching an object. E.g., when an object
is detected at the rear left of the vehicle, a
sound is heard from the rear left speaker.
The shorter the distance to the object, the
shorter the intervals of the intermittent tones.
When the distance to a detected object is less
than approx. 8 in/20 cm, a continuous tone is
sounded.
When there are objects in front of and behind
the vehicle at the same time, at a distance
smaller than approx. 8 in/20 cm, an alternating
continuous tone will sound between the front
and rear speakers.
The intermittent tones and the continuous tone
are turned off when selector lever position P is
engaged.
Depending on national-market version, the in-
termittent tones are switched off after a short
time when the vehicle is stationary.
If an object approaches when the vehicle is
stationary, the acoustic signal is reactivated.

Visual warning
General information
The approach to an object is displayed on the
control display and in the instrument cluster as
soon as the system is activated.
Objects that are farther away are already dis-
played before a signal sounds.
Depending on the view, pathway lines, turning
circle lines and obstacle markings are shown
for a better estimation of the space required.
Depending on the equipment, the detection
range of the sensors is represented by shaded
annular surfaces. Green, yellow, and red mark-
ings indicate when obstacles are detected in
the detection zone.
If vehicle is equipped with Cross Traffic Warn-
ing: A warning is also shown on the display for
vehicles approaching from the side at the rear
and front.
To protect the sides of the vehicle, obstacle
markings are displayed on the sides of the ve-
hicle.
