Always look
for
traffic and check the area
around your vehicle by looking at it directly
as well. The parking system cannot replace
the driver's attention. The driver
is
always
responsible when entering or
leaving
a park-
ing space and during similar maneuvers.

Please note that some surfaces, such as
clothing, are not detected by the system
.
- Sensors and cameras have blind spots
in
which people and objects cannot be detect-
ed.
Be especially cautious of small children
and animals
.
-
Always pay attention to the area around the
vehicle
-
using the rearview mirror, too
.

The sensors can be displaced by
impacts
or
damage to the radiator grille, bumper,
wheel housing and the underbody

The park
-
ing system may become impaired as a
re-
sult.

Tips
- The
system may provide a warning even
though
there are no obstacles in the cover-
age area in some situations, such as:
-
certain
road
surfaces or for long grass
.
-
external ultrasonic sources e.g. from
cleaning vehicles.
-
heavy
rain,
snow, or thick vehicle exhaust
.
-
We recommend that you practice parking in
a traffic-free
location
or parking lot to be-
come familiar with the system. When doing
this, there should be good
light
and weath-
er conditions
.
-
You can change the volume and pitch of the
signals as well as the display

the MMI display is some-
what time-delayed.

snow and ice for the park assist to operate .
