Maneuvering assistance

q Function of Drive Away Assist
Drive Away Assist can reduce the severity of an impact when you are pulling away. If the system
detects an obstacle in the direction of travel, the
vehicle\bs speed will brieOy be reduced to approx-
imately 1 mph (2 km/h).
A risk of collision may occur in the following situa-
tions, for example:
= If the driver mixes up the accelerator and
brake pedals.
= If the driver engages an incorrect gear.
=If the driver depresses the accelerator pedal
with too much force.
Drive Away Assist will be active in the following
circumstances:
= If the vehicle was stationary and the transmis-
sion position was changed to ^ or [.
= If the vehicle has rolled less than approx-
imately 3.3 s (1.0 m) since being at a stand-
still.
= If the detected obstacle is less than approx-
imately 3.3 s (1.0 m) away.
The Drive-away Assist can be deactivated or acti-
vated on the Maneuvering Assistance menu
(  page 291).
If a critical situation is detected, the following symbol will appear in red in the selected view on the Camera & Parking menu:

\bIf Drive Away Assist is not available, the same
symbol will appear in grey. If the Camera & Parking menu is not opened on the central
display, the symbol and pop-up of Parking
Assist PARKTRONIC will both appear.
Drive Away Assist is only an aid. It is not a substi-
tute for your attention to the surroundings. The
responsibility for safe maneuvering and parking
remains with you. Make sure that no persons, ani- mals, objects etc. are in the path of the vehicle.
&WARNING Risk of accident caused by limi-
ted detection performance of Drive Away
Assist
Drive Away Assist cannot always clearly iden-
tify objects and traPc situations.
Always pay careful attention to the traPc
situation; do not rely on Drive Away Assist alone.Be prepared to brake or swerve as nec-
essary, provided the traPc situation per-
mits and that it is safe to take evasive
action.Driving and parking289

System limits
The system limits of Active Parking Assist apply
(  page 280).
On uphill gradients, the performance of Drive
Away Assist will be restricted.

q Function of cross traPc warning
The cross traPc warning can warn you of crossing
traPc when you are exiting a parking space. The
radar sensors in the bumper also monitor the area
adjacent to the vehicle.
The cross traPc warning is active under the fol-
lowing conditions:
= Warning for Cross Traffic, Rear : the vehicle is
driving in reverse at a speed slower than approx. 6 mph (10 km/h).
= Warning for Cross Traffic, Front : the vehicle is
driving forwards at a speed slower than approx. 6 mph (10 km/h) and the camera
image is shown in the central display
(  page 275).
The Warning for Cross Traffic, Front can be deac-
tivated or activated in the Maneuvering Assis-
tance menu (  page 291).If a critical situation is detected, the following
symbol appears in red in the selected view in theCamera & Parking menu:

Warning for Cross Traffic, Rear = The vehicle can be braked automatically when
crossing traPc is detected.
= If the Camera & Parking menu is not open and
a critical situation is detected, a warning
appears in the central display together with
the PARKTRONIC Parking Assist pop-up.
Warning for Cross Traffic, Front
= If Active Parking Assist is active, the vehicle
can be braked automatically when crossing
traPc is detected.
= If Active Parking Assist is not active but the
menu Camera & Parking is open, a warning
appears.
= If the Camera & Parking menu is not open,
the system cannot react to crossing traPc.
The cross traPc warning is only an aid and not a
substitute for your attention to the surroundings. Responsibility for safe maneuvering and parking
remains with you. Make sure that no persons, ani- mals, objects, etc. are in the maneuvering range.&WARNING Risk of accident caused by limi-
ted detection performance of the cross traPc warning
The cross traPc warning cannot always clearly
identify objects and traPc situations.
Always pay careful attention to the traPc
situation; do not rely on the cross traPc

q Maneuvering brake function
The maneuvering brake function can prevent colli-
sions with pedestrians when the vehicle is back-
ing up at slow speeds. If the rear view camera
detects a person in the vehicle\bs path, the vehicle
can be braked to a standstill.
The maneuvering brake function can intervene under the following conditions:
= The vehicle is backing up at a speed slower
than 6 mph (10 km/h).
= The camera image is shown on the central dis-
play (  page 275).
Depending on the country, you can activate and

Memory Parking Assist

q Function of Memory Parking Assist
Memory Parking Assist can park your vehicle
using a previously stored parking space. You can store parking procedures with a total distance of
up to 550 yds (500 m) (110 yds (100 m) per park- ing or exiting procedure).
During parking or exiting, the system can travel a
previously stored path of up to approximately 110 yds (100 m) to or out of the desired parking
space, for example, from the driveway entrance
into the garage.
Within a radius of approx. 165 yds (150 m), only
one parking or exiting procedure can be recorded.
Only use Memory Parking Assist on private prop-
erty. Use on public roads, e. g. in public parking
spaces, is not permitted.
Memory Parking Assist is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for your attention to the surroundings.
Responsibility for safe maneuvering and parking
remains with you. Make sure that no persons, ani- mals, objects, etc. are in the maneuvering range.
System limits
Observe the system limitations of Active Parking
Assist (  page 280).&WARNING Risk of accident due to objects
located above or below the detection
range of Memory Parking Assist
If there are objects above or below the detec-
tion range, the following situations may arise:
= Memory Parking Assist may steer too
early.
= The vehicle may not stop in front of these
objects.
This result in a collision.
In these situations, do not use Memory
Parking Assist.
Objects located above or below the detection
range of Memory Parking Assist may not be detected during the parking procedure.
Drawbars of parked trailers, among other objects,
that protrude into the parking space may not be
detected.
Do not use Memory Parking Assist in the following
situations, for example:
= In extreme weather conditions suchas ice,
packed snow or in heavy rain.
= When transporting a load that protrudes
beyond the vehicle.
= If the parking space is on a steep downhill or
uphill gradient.
= When snow chains are installed.

q Recording a parking procedure using Memory
Parking Assist
Requirements
= The entire route is, forexample, within your
own property and not on public roads.
= The system needs reference points in the sur-
roundings to orient itself, suchas fences, walls
or trees. Therefore, aser starting the vehicle, a
certain distance must Nrst be driven. If not
enough reference points are detected in the292Driving and parking
