PARKTRONIC
Functions of PARKTRONIC
PARKTRONIC is an electronic parking assistance
system with ultrasonic sensors. It monitors the
area around your vehicle using six sensors 1 in
the front bumper and six sensors in the rear
bumper. PARKTRONIC indicates visually and
audibly the distance between your vehicle and
an object.
PARKTRONIC is only an aid. It is not a substitute
for your attention to the immediate surround‐
ings. The responsibility for safe maneuvering and
parking remains with you. Make sure that there
are no persons, animals or objects in range
while maneuvering and parking.
In the standard setting, an intermittent warning
tone sounds beginning at a distance of 1.0 ft
(0.3 m) to an obstacle. A continuous tone
sounds beginning at a distance of 0.7 ft (0.2 m).
You can set the warning tone in the multimedia
system so that it will sound earlier at greater dis‐
tances (3.3 ft (1.0 m)) (

If PARKTRONIC is deactivated, Parking Pilot is
unavailable.
