detected, the sensors in the front and rear
bum
per must Nrst detect the object while you are
driving past it.
During the parking procedure or manoeuvring,
objects are detected as the vehicle drives past. If
you steer in the direction of a detected obstacle
and there is a risk of a lateral collision, a warning
is issued and the segments light up in colour in
the display.
The segment colour changes depending on the
distance to the detected obstacle:
= Yellow: approximately 30 - 60 cm
= Red: less than approximately 30 cm
In order for lateral, front or rear segments to be
displayed, the vehicle must Nrst travel a distance
of at least half a vehicle's length. Once the vehicle
has travelled the length of the vehicle, all of the
lateral front and rear segments can be displayed. Parking Assist PARKTRONIC display: vehicles

Function of Active Parking Assist
A

ctive Parking Assist is an electronic parking
assistance system, which uses ultrasound with
the assistance of the reversing camera and 360°
Camera. When you are driving forwards up to
approximately 35 km/h, the system automatically
measures parking spaces on both sides of the
vehicle.
Active Parking Assist oMers the following func-
tions:
= Country-dependent: parking in parking spaces
parallel to the road
= Parking in parking spaces perpendicular to the
road (optionally either forwards or reverse)
= Exiting parking spaces if you have parked
using Active Parking Assist As soon as all requirements are met for searching
f
or parking spaces, the Ç display appears in
the Instrument Display.
When Active Parking Assist has detected parking
spaces, the È display appears in the Instru-
ment Display. The arrows show on which side of
the road detected parking spaces are located.
They are then shown in the media display.
The parking space can be selected as desired.
Depending on the location of the parking space,
the parking direction (rearwards or forwards) can
also be selected as desired.
When Active Parking Assist is activated, the turn
signal indicators are activated based on the calcu-
lated path of your vehicle.
When you are entering or exiting a parking space,
the procedure is assisted by acceleration, braking,
steering and gear changes.
Vehicles with manual transmission: the active
brake application and automatic gear change are
only available on vehicles with automatic trans-
mission. You must therefore brake the vehicle and
change gear yourself when parking or exiting a
parking space. Active Parking Assist is only an aid. It is not a sub-
s
titute for your attention to the surroundings. The
responsibility for safe manoeuvring and parking
remains with you. Make sure that no persons, ani-
mals or objects etc. are in the manoeuvring
range.
Active Parking Assist will be cancelled in the fol-
lowing situations:
= Parking Assist PARKTRONIC is deactivated.
= You begin steering.
= You apply the parking brake.
= Vehicles with automatic transmission: you
engage transmission position j.
= ESP n
intervenes.
= You open the doors or the tailgate while driv-
ing.
System limits
If the exterior lighting is malfunctioning, Active
Parking Assist is not available.
Objects located above or below the detection
range of the sensors, e.g. overhanging loads,
overhangs or loading ramps of goods vehicles, or
the borders of parking spaces, are not detected 270
Driving and parking

during measurement of the parking space. These
ar
e also then not taken into account when calcu-
lating the parking procedure. In some circumstan-
ces, Active Parking Assist may therefore guide
you into the parking space incorrectly. &
WARNING Risk of accident due t
o objects
located above or below the detection
range of Active Parking Assist
If there are objects above or below the detec-
tion r
ange, the following situations may arise:
= Active Parking Assist may steer too early.
= The vehicle may not stop in front of these
objects.
There is a danger of collision! 
In these situations, do not use Active
P
arking Assist. Extreme weather conditions, suchas snow or
hea
vy rain, may lead to a parking space being
measured inaccurately. Parking spaces that are
partially occupied by trailer drawbars might not be
identiNed as such or be measured incorrectly. Only use Active Parking Assist on level, high-grip
g
round.
Do not use Active Parking Assist in the following
situations:
= In extreme weather conditions suchas ice,
packed snow or in heavy rain.
= When transporting a load that protrudes
beyond the vehicle.
= On steep uphill or downhill gradients of more
than approximately 15 %.
= When snow chains are Ntted.
= When a trailer or bicycle rack is attached.
= Directly aser a tyre change or when spare
tyres are Ntted.
= If the tyre pressure is too low or too high.
= If the suspension is out of alignment, e.g. aser
bottoming out on a kerb.
Active Parking Assist may also display parking
spaces that are not suitable for parking, suchas: = Parking spaces where parking is prohibited.
= Parking spaces on unsuitable surfaces. Parking with Active Parking Assist
