Driving and driving safety systems
Driving systems and your responsibility
Your vehicle is equipped with driving systems that
assist you in driving, parking and maneuvering thevehicle. The driving systems are only aids. Theyare not a substitute for you paying attention to
your surroundings and do not relieve you of your
responsibility pertaining to road tra"Pc law. The
driver is always responsible for maintaining a safe
186Driving and parking

distance to the vehicle in front, for vehicle speed,for braking in good time and for staying in lane.Pay attention to the tra"Pc conditions at all times
and intervene when necessary. Be aware of the limitations regarding the safe use of these sys- tems.
Driving systems can neither reduce the risk of an accident if you fail to adapt your driving style nor
override the laws of physics. They cannot always take into account road, weather or tra"Pc condi-
tions.\bSome driving systems can regulate or limit the speed to a previously set value. Draw atten-tion to the stored speed when changing driv-
ers.
Information on vehicle sensors and cameras
Some driving and driving safety systems use cam- eras as well as radar or ultrasonic sensors to
monitor the area in front of, behind or next to the vehicle.
1Multifunction camera2Cameras in the outside mirrors3Front radar4Front camera5Corner radars6Ultrasonic sensors7Rear-view camera&WARNING Risk of accident due to restric-
ted detection performance of vehicle sen- sors and cameras
If the area around vehicle sensors or cameras
is covered, damaged or dirty, certain driving
and safety systems cannot function correctly.
There is a risk of an accident.
Keep the area around vehicle sensors or
cameras clear of any obstructions and
clean.Have damage to the bumper, radiator
grille or stone chipping in the area of the
front and rear windows repaired at a
quali"Ned specialist workshop.
Keep the areas around the sensors and cameras
in particular free of dirt, ice and slush (  page 327). The sensors and cameras must
not be covered and the detection areas around them must be kept clear. Do not attach additional
license plate bracket, advertisements, stickers, wraps or stone chip protection "Nlms in the detec-
tion range of the sensors and cameras. Make sure
Driving and parking187

that there are no overhanging loads protruding
into the detection area.
If there is damage to a bumper or the radiator grille, or a"ser an impact, have the function of the
sensors checked at a quali"Ned specialist work-
shop. Have damage or stone chipping around the cameras on the front and rear passenger com-
partment windows repaired at a quali"Ned special-
ist workshop.
