the parking direction (rearwards or forwards)

Active Parking Assist provides assistance when
changing gear, accelerating, braking and steer‐
ing the vehicle.

substitute for your attention to the surroundings.
The responsibility for safe manoeuvring and
parking remains with you. Make sure that no
persons, animals or objects etc. are in the
manoeuvring range.

other things, one of the following actions is car‐
ried out:

System limits
Objects located above or below the detection
range of Active Parking Assist are not detected
when the parking space is being measured.
These are also not taken into account when the
parking manoeuvre is calculated, e.g. overhang‐
ing loads, overhangs or loading ramps of lorries,
or the boundaries of parking spaces. In some cir‐
cumstances, Active Parking Assist may therefore
guide you into the parking space prematurely.

WARNING Risk of accident due to
objects located above or below the
detection range of Active Parking Assist
If there are objects above or below the
detection range, the following situations may
arise:
R
Active Parking Assist may steer too early.
R
The vehicle may not stop in front of these
objects.
This could cause a collision.
#
In these situations, do not use Active
Parking Assist.
Snowfall or heavy rain may lead to a parking
space being measured inaccurately. Parking
spaces that are partially occupied by trailer
drawbars might not be identified as such or be
measured incorrectly. Only use Active Parking
Assist on level, high-grip ground.
Do not use Active Parking Assist in the following
situations:
R
The weather conditions are extreme, e.g. ice,
packed snow or heavy rain.
R
If you are transporting a load that protrudes
beyond the vehicle.
R
If the parking space is on a steep downhill or
uphill gradient.
R
If you have installed snow chains.
Active Parking Assist may also display parking
spaces that are not suitable for parking, e.g.:
R
Parking spaces where parking is prohibited.
R
Parking spaces on unsuitable surfaces.
