The sensors must be free of dirt, ice and slush.

Clean the sensors regularly, taking care not to
scratch or damage them.
Function of the passive side impact protec‐

be detected, the sensors in the front and rear
bumper must first detect the object while you
are driving past it.
During the parking procedure or maneuvering,
objects are detected as the vehicle drives past.
If you steer in the direction of a detected obsta‐

warning is issued. The segments on the sides
