DRIVER SUPPORT
* Option/accessory. 392
Park Assist
*
The Park Assist Pilot function can assist the
driver when manoeuvring in tight spaces by indi-
cating the distance to obstacles through acous-
tic signals combined with a graphic in the centre
display.
Screen view showing obstacle zones and sensor sectors.
The centre display shows an overview of the rela-
tionship between the car and detected obstacles.
The highlighted sector indicates the location of
the obstacle. The closer the car symbol is to a
highlighted sector box at the front/back, the
shorter the distance between the car and
detected obstacle.
The side sectors change colour as the distance
between the car and an object is reduced.
The shorter the distance to the obstacle, the
faster the signal sounds. Other sound from the
audio system is muted automatically.
The acoustic signal for obstacles ahead and to
the sides is active when the car is moving but
stops after the car has been stationary for
approx. 2 seconds. The acoustic signal for obsta-
cles behind is also active when the car is station-
ary.
At a distance within approx. 30 cm (1 ft) from an
obstacle behind or in front of the car, the tone is
constant and the active sensor's field closest to
the car symbol is filled.
At a distance within approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from
an obstacle To the sides, the tone pulses inten-
sively and the active sector field changes colour
from ORANGE to RED.
The volume of the parking assistance signal can
be adjusted while the signal is sounding by
means of the [
>II ] knob on the centre console.
Adjustment can also be performed in the top
view's
Settings menu option.
