Function
Rear Traffic Alert monitors the traffic crossing behind the vehicle when reversing out of a parking
space or manoeuvring. Rear Traffic Alert functions using radar sensors in the rear bumper.
Key to ⇒ Fig. 150:
Critical situation. Do not drive on!Possible critical situation.
Detection of a critical situation can also take place acoustically:
•A warning signal will sound and a text message will be displayed in the instrument cluster for
vehicles without Park Distance Control.
•A warning signal will sound with the continuous Park Distance Control tone if Park Distance
Control is installed in the vehicle. If the Park Distance Control is deactivated, no warning can be
given to the driver and the Rear Traffic Alert system will also be switched off temporarily.
If there is a fault in the system's scanned area, the yellow indicator lamp lights up .
Automatic braking intervention to minimise damage
If Rear Traffic Alert detects an approaching road user and the driver has not pressed the brake, the
system can brake automatically.
The Rear Traffic Alert helps the driver to prevent damage by initiating an automatic braking
intervention. Automatic braking intervention takes place when reversing at speeds of between
1-12 km/h (1-7 mph). The vehicle is held stationary for up to two seconds after vehicle standstill has
been detected.
After automatic braking intervention is activated to prevent damage to the vehicle, the system
requires approximately ten seconds before it can activate another automatic braking intervention.
The automatic braking intervention can be interrupted by pressing the accelerator or brake pedal
sharply and taking control of the vehicle.

Park Distance Control
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the followingsubjects:
⇒ Switching on and off
⇒ Display representation
⇒ Settings
⇒ Troubleshooting
The Park Distance Control system
assists the driver when manoeuvring
and parking.
Park Distance Control detects the distance from an obstacle by means of sensors in the front and
rear bumpers ⇒ Vehicle overviews. If there is an obstacle in the detection range of the sensors, the
system indicates this on the Infotainment system and by means of signal tones.
System limits
The sensors may not always be able to detect objects such as trailer drawbars, thin rails, fences,
posts, trees, very low or high obstacles and open or opening boot lids.
In some cases, dirt and ice on the sensors could be registered as an obstacle.
Switching on and off
Fig. 153 In the centre console: button for switching Park Distance Control on and off (depending on
equipment).
First read and observe the introductoryinformation and safety warnings⇒
Introduction
Switching on Park Distance Control
•Select reverse gear.
•OR: press the button or .
The intelligent technology used in the parking systems cannot overcome the laws of
physics, and functions only within the limits of the system. Never let the extra
convenience afforded by the parking systems tempt you into taking any risks when
driving. The parking systems cannot replace the full concentration of the driver.
•Always adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions.
•Unintentional vehicle movements can cause serious injury.
•Keep looking in the direction in which you are parking and at the relevant area
surrounding the vehicle.
•Do not allow the displays in the instrument cluster and the images shown in the
Infotainment system to distract you from the traffic.
•Always monitor the area around the vehicle as the parking systems will not always
detect infants, animals and objects.
•The parking systems have blind spots in which obstacles and people are not
registered.
•External sources of sound and certain surfaces on objects and clothing may influence
the sensors' signals. In certain circumstances, the systems will be unable to detect or
properly detect people and objects.
•Certain objects, for example narrow posts or railings, may be difficult or impossible to
see on the screen because of its low resolution or poor light conditions.
•When approaching objects at high speeds, the parking systems' signals and displays
may not respond quickly enough to emit a warning.
WARNING

Park Distance Control switches itself on automatically if the vehicle rolls backwards.
Depending on the vehicle equipment, Park Distance Control can also be activated automatically.
Switching off Park Distance Control
•Press the or button.
•OR: drive forwards at a speed of more than 10-15 km/h (6-9 mph).
•OR: move the selector lever to position P.

Park Distance Control also switches itself on if the vehicle approaches an obstacle in the front area
of the vehicle at a speed of less than 15 km/h (9 mph). Automatic activation can be switched on in
the Infotainment system.
Automatic activation functions only when the vehicle speed falls below around 15 km/h (9 mph) for
the first time. Renewed automatic activation is possible after Park Distance Control has been
switched off and then back on again with the button or .
Automatic activation can also be reactivated by switching the ignition or electronic parking brake off
and then back on again.
Manoeuvre braking
If the vehicle is equipped with manoeuvre braking, the manoeuvre braking function triggers the
emergency brake as soon as an obstacle is detected while reversing. The manoeuvre braking
function helps to prevent collisions. The vehicle speed must not be higher than 10 km/h (6 mph).
The manoeuvre braking function is activated or deactivated when Park Distance Control is switched
on or off. The manoeuvre braking function is inactive for five metres after a braking operation in the
same direction of travel. The manoeuvre braking function is ready for braking again after changing
gear or position. The same restrictions apply as for Park Distance Control.
Manoeuvre braking is not active if Park Distance Control was activated automatically.
Touch the function button to switch manoeuvre braking on and off.

⇒ Parking parallel to the road (mode 2)
⇒ Troubleshooting
The rear view camera system in the
rear of the vehicle makes it easier for
the driver to see behind the vehicle and
provides support for parking
manoeuvres.
The rear view camera system shows the area behind the vehicle on the Infotainment system
screen. Depending on the operating mode, orientation lines support the view to the rear.
Modes for the rear view camera system
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the following operating modes are available:

•Perpendicular parking (mode 1): reverse parking perpendicular to the road.
•Parallel parking (mode 2): reverse parking parallel to the road.
•Trailer support (mode 3): support when hitching a trailer to the vehicle.
•Crossing traffic (mode 4): observing crossing traffic.
System limits
The rear view camera system shows only two-dimensional images on the screen. The lack of depth
of field means that potholes and protruding objects on the ground may only be detected with
difficulty, or may not be detected at all.
The rear view camera system may not always be able to detect objects such as thin rails, fences,
posts, trees etc. This could result in damage to your vehicle.
The system displays the orientation lines irrespective of the area surrounding the vehicle. There is
