Also read the instructions on Blind Spot
Assist (/ page 213).
Vehicles with Blind Spot Assist: drivers can
also be warned of any crossing traffic when
backing up out of a parking space. If a critical
situation is detected, symbol 1 appears in the
multimedia system display. If the driver does not
respond to the warning, the vehicle's brakes can
