Introduction
A radar sensor mounted in the front bumper monitors traffic
→ Fig. 161 ① and can detect vehicles traveling ahead up to a
distance of about 130 yards (120 m).
The radar sensor function can be impaired by things such as mud,
slush, or snow, or by conditions such as heavy rain or spray. In
cases like these, Front Assist will not work. The driver message
Front Assist: no sensor view! appears in the instrument cluster
display. Clean the radar sensor as required → .
The Front Assist system will automatically be available again as
soon as the radar sensor is no longer impaired. The message in the
instrument cluster display turns off.
The function of the Front Assist system can also be impaired when
the radar signal radiation is reflected, for example, in multilevel
parking structures, or by nearby metallic objects such as rails or
metal plates in the road.
