WARNING
The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
■
it is always the driver's responsibility to take care when reversing the vehicle
or carrying out similar manoeuvres. Pay particular attention to small children
and animals as they may not be recognised by the system sensors.
Before reversing, you should make sure that there are no small obstacles,
■
such as rocks, thin posts, trailer drawbars etc. in front or behind your vehicle.
Such obstacles may not be recognised by the system sensors.
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of cloth-
■
ing cannot reflect the system signals. Thus, these objects or people who wear
such clothing are not recognised by the System sensors.
External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on the system. Under
■
adverse conditions, this can cause objects or people to not be recognized by
the system.
CAUTION
If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seconds after activating the system and
■
there is no obstacle close to your car, this indicates a system fault. The fault is
also indicated by the symbol flashing in the button
Seek help from a specialist garage.
The sensors must be kept clean (free of ice, etc.) to enable the system to oper-
■
ate properly.
The system function may be limited under adverse weather conditions (heavy
■
rain, water vapour, very low or high temperatures etc.).
Additionally installed modules such as bicycle carriers can impair the function of
■
the parking aid.

Note
The signal tones for front obstacle recognition are factory-set to be higher than
■
for rear obstacle recognition.
If not all fields around the vehicle are shown after the system is activated, the
■
vehicle will need to be moved a few metres forwards or in reverse.
The sound of the park-assist can be adjusted via the MAXI DOT display in the
■
Assistants menu option » page

If the system is activated and the selector lever of the automatic gearbox is in
■

position P (the vehicle cannot move), the warning tone is interrupted and no ob-
stacles are displayed.
