Soft obstacles or obstacles covered in foam.
▷
Plants or shrubs.

Low objects already indicated, such as kerbs,
may enter the sensors' blind areas before or
after a continuous tone is given.

projecting beyond the outline of the vehicle.
False alarms
Under the following conditions, the system may
issue a warning even though there is no obstacle
in the detection range:
▷
In heavy rain.
▷
If the sensors are very soiled or covered with
ice.
▷
If the sensors are covered with snow.
▷
On rough road surfaces.
▷
On uneven surfaces, for example speed
bumps.
▷
In large, rectangular buildings with smooth
walls, for example underground car parks.
▷
In washing bays and car washes.
▷
Due to dense exhaust gases.
▷
Due to other ultrasonic sources, for example
sweeping machines, steam-jet cleaners or
neon lights.
To reduce false alarms, for example in automatic
car washes, switch off, see page
activation of PDC when obstacles are detected if
necessary.
Malfunction

A white symbol is shown and the capture
area of the sensors is shown in dark col‐
our on the Control Display.
