WARNING
●
Always pay att
ention, also when looking
straight ahead, to traffic and the vehicle
surroundings. The assistance systems are
not a replacement for driver awareness.
When inserting or removing the vehicle
from a parking space, or when performing
similar manoeuvres the driver always as-
sumes the responsibility.
●
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and
traffic conditions.
●
The ultrasound sensors have blind spots
in which obstacles and people are not reg-
istered. Pay special attention to children
and animals.
●
Always k
eep visual control of the sur-
roundings: use the mirrors for additional
help.
CAUTION
Parking Aid functions may be negatively af-

damage to the vehicle or its immediate sur-
rounds:

Under certain circumstances, the system
does not detect or display certain objects:
–
Objects such as chains, trailer draw
bars, fences, posts and thin trees.
–
Objects that are located above the
sensors, such as protrusions in a wall.
–
Objects with certain surfaces or struc-
tures, such as wire mesh fences or pow-
der snow.
●
Certain surfaces of objects and gar-
ments do not reflect the ultrasound sen-
sors' signals. The system cannot detect
these objects or people wearing such
clothes correctly.
●
Ultrasound sensor signals may be affec-
ted by external sound sources. In certain
circumstances this may prevent them from
detecting people or objects.
●
Please note that low obstacles detected
by the system may no longer be registered
by the sensors as the car moves closer, so
the system will not give any further warn-
ing. In certain circumstances, objects such
