Function of the radar sensors
Some driving and driving safety systems use
radar sensors to monitor the area in front of,
behind or next to the vehicle (depending on the
vehicle's equipment).
Depending on the vehicle's equipment, the radar
sensors are integrated behind the bumpers
and/or behind the Mercedes star. Keep these
parts free of dirt, ice and slush
(
/
page 371). The sensors must not be cov‐
ered, for example by cycle racks, overhanging
loads, stickers, foil or foils to protect against
stone chipping. In the event of damage to the
bumpers or radiator grill, or following a collision
impacting the bumpers or radiator grill, have the
function of the radar sensors checked at a quali‐
fied specialist workshop. The driver assistance
system may no longer work properly.
