The sensors have a broad detection
range. Therefore, the Park Assist may also
issue warnings due to detected obstacles
on the ground, for example:
R
Sewer canal covers
R
Rails
R
Bumps
R
Gutters
Warnings may also be issued due to
obstacles that are moving up quickly, for
example rolling garage doors.

While parking, pay particular attention to
objects over or underneath the sensors,
e.g. flower boxes, an elevated crossbar or
a trailer tow hitch. The Park Assist does not
detect such nearby objects. You could
otherwise damage the vehicle or the
objects.
Warning indicators
Visual signals indicate to the driver the
relative distance between the sensors and an
obstacle.
Front area warning indicators
Rear area warning indicators
Each warning indicator is divided into five
yellow and two red distance segments for
left
:
and right side
;
of the vehicle. The
Park Assist is ready to measure when the
yellow readiness indicators
=
are
illuminated.
The current transmission position determines
which warning indicators will be activated.

distance segment illuminates, you have
reached the minimum distance.

As soon as the first red distance segment
