and their setting checked at a qualified spe‐
cialist workshop.
Do not use the 360° Camera under such circum‐
stances. You could otherwise injure others or
collide with objects when parking the vehicle.
On vehicles with height-adjustable suspension or
if the vehicle is carrying a heavy load, leaving the
standard height can result in inaccuracies in the
guide lines and in the display of the generated
images, depending on technical conditions.
The field of vision and other functions of the
camera system may be restricted due to addi‐
tional accessories on the rear of the vehicle (e.g.
license plate bracket, bicycle rack).

Active Parking Assist
Functions of Active Parking Assist
Active Parking Assist is an electronic parking
assistance system which uses ultrasound and is
automatically activated during forward travel.
The system is operational at speeds of up to
approximately 22 mph (35 km/h). When all the
conditions are fulfilled, the c symbol appears
in the multifunction display and the system auto‐
matically searches for and measures parking
spaces on both sides of the vehicle parallel and
perpendicular to the direction of travel. If Active
Parking Assist is activated, suitable parking
spaces are displayed in the multimedia system.
The ë symbol appears in the multifunction
display. The arrows show on which side of the
road free parking spaces are located.
