General information on parking systems
What happens in the event of automatic
br
aking?
If there is an obstacle, the system brakes the
vehicle to a standstill and keeps it stationary for
approx. 2 seconds. Press the brake!
Activate
●
Automatic braking is activated when the
driver switches a parking system on.
Deactivating
●
The automatic brake operation function de-
activates when a park assist system is switched
o.
●
OR: to temporarily deactivate the manoeuvre
braking function, press the
function button
on the park assist scr
een and change the set-
ting.
WARNING
Never allow the automatic braking opera-
tions of park assist syst
ems to lead you to
take any risk that compromises safety. In
certain situations, the automatic braking in-
tervention may only work in a limited way
or not work at all. Collisions with obstacles
can injure people and damage the vehicle.
The system is not a replacement for driver
awareness.
●
Pay attention and do not rely solely on
park assist systems.
●
Always be prepared to brake and control
the steering yourself.
●
Do not take any risks that compromise
safety.
●
Act in accordance with the warnings and
driving recommendations of the parking sys-
tems.
Note
●
Switch o the parking syst
em if the auto-
matic brakes operate excessively, e.g. when
driving o-road.
●
After the park assist’s manoeuvre braking
function has braked the vehicle, driving in the
same direction for 5 metres is deactivated,
and becomes active again after changing
gear or changing the position of the gear se-
lector.
Troubleshooting
The parking system behaves dierently than
expected
There can be several causes:
●
The system requirements are not met.
●
The sensors or the camera are dirty or have
ice on them ›››page366.
●
The camera lens is not clean and the camera
image is not cl
ear ›››page366.
●
Some noise sources, such as a jackhammer
or a cobbl
estone surface can interfere with the
ultrasound signal.
●
The vehicle has some type of damage in the
sensor or camera area, e.g. due to a parking
impact.
●
The sensor detection zone or field of view of
the camera are blocked by an accessory, e.g. a
bike rack.
●
Changes have been made to the paintwork
or structural modifications in the sensor or
camera area, e.g. at the front of the vehicle or
to the running gear.
Also take into account the messages displayed
on the infotainment system screen.
Sensor or camera without visibility, or the
parking system has been switched o
If a sensor fails, that sensor zone is permanently
switched o. The aected sensor zone may be
displayed on the infotainment system with a
symbol and a greyed-out graphic segment. If
necessary, the parking syst
em switches o the
aected zone.
If the park assist is not working properly, a con-
tinuous audio signal sounds for a few seconds
when it is switched on. If applicable, a message
to this eect is displayed on the instrument
cluster screen
