Driver assistance systems
conditions can limit the Tiredness detection
or prevent it from functioning.
●
At speeds below 65 km/h (40 mph)
●
At speeds above 200 km/h (125 mph)
●
When cornering
●
On roads in poor condition
●
In unfavourable weather conditions
●
When a sporty driving style is employed
●
In the event of a serious distraction to the
driver
Tiredness detection will be restored when the
vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes,
when the ignition is switched off or when the
driver has unbuckled their seat belt and
opened the door.
In the event of slow driving during a long pe-
riod of time (below 65 km/h (40 mph) the
system automatically re-establishes the tired-
ness calculation. When driving at a faster
speed the driving behaviour will be recalcula-
ted.
Parking aid
General information
Various systems are available to help you
when parking or manoeuvring in tight
spaces, depending on the equipment fitted
on your vehicle.
The
rear parking aid
is an audible assistant
th
at warns about obstacles located behind
the vehicle ››› page 174.
During parking, the parking system plus as-
sists you visually and audibly about obsta-
cles detected in front and behind the vehicle
››› page 174.
WARNING
●
Always pay attention, also when looking
straight ahead, to traffic and the vehicle sur-
roundings. The assistance systems are not a
replacement for driver awareness. When in-
serting or removing the vehicle from a park-
ing space, or when performing similar ma-
noeuvres the driver always assumes the re-
sponsibility.
●
Take into account that the system is not al-
ways in conditions to recognise or represent
certain surfaces, such as dress fabric: Risk of
causing an accident!
●
The sensors and cameras have blind spots,
making the detection of people and objects
impossible. Pay special attention to children
and animals: Risk of causing an accident!
●
Always keep visual control of the vehicle
surroundings: use the rear vision mirrors for
additional help.
CAUTION
●
Under certain circumstances, the system
does not detect or display certain objects:
–
Objects such as snow chains, trailer draw
bars, bars or fences.
–
Objects that are located above the sen-
sors, such as protrusions in a wall.
–
Objects with certain surfaces or struc-
tures, such as wire mesh fences or pow-
der snow.
●
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 warning. In
certain circumstances, objects such as high
kerbs that could damage the bottom of the
vehicle are not detected either.
●
If the first warning from the Park Pilot is ig-
nored, the vehicle could suffer considerable
damage.
●
The knocks or damage on the radiator
grille, bumper, wheel arch and vehicle under-
body can adjust the orientation of the sen-
sors. This can affect the parking aid function.
Have the function checked by a specialised
workshop.
Note
●
In certain situations, the system can give a
warning even though there is no obstacle in
the detected area, e.g:
