Limited field of vision
The radar sensor has a limited field of vision. Insome situations, it may detect a vehicle later thanexpected or not at all.
The radar sensor's field of vision.
The radar sensor's detection of vehicles veryclose to your vehicle may be delayed in cer-tain situations, e.g. if a vehicle pulls in
between your vehicle and the vehicle directlyahead.
Small vehicles, such as motorcycles, or vehi-cles that are not driving in the center of thelane may remain undetected.
In curves, the radar may detect the wrongvehicle or lose sight of a target vehicle.
Low trailers
Low trailer in the radar shadow.
Low trailers may also be difficult or even impossi-ble for the radar to detect. The driver should beextra alert when driving behind vehicles towinglow trailers when Adaptive Cruise Control or PilotAssist is activated.
Camera
Reduced visibility
Cameras have the same limitations as the humaneye. In other words, their “vision" is impaired byadverse weather conditions such as heavy snow-fall/rain, dense fog, swirling dust/snow, etc.These conditions may reduce the function of sys-
tems that depend on the camera or cause thesesystems to temporarily stop functioning.
Strong sunlight, reflections from the road surface,ice or snow covering the road, a dirty road sur-face, or unclear lane marker lines may drasticallyreduce the camera

CTA's blind zone.
CTA's field of vision.
However, as you back your vehicle slowly out of aparking space, CTA's field of vision changes inrelation to the obstructing vehicle/object and itsblind zone is reduced.
Examples of further limitations
The auto brake sub-function only detectsvehicles in motion and may therefore not
"see" and brake for e.g. stationary obstacles,a cyclists or a pedestrian.
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors mayreduce functionality and prevent the systemfrom providing warnings.
CTA is automatically deactivated if a trailer,bicycle holder or similar is connected to thevehicle's electrical system.
For CTA to function optimally, bicycle hold-ers, luggage racks or similar should not bemounted on the vehicle's towbar.

Park Assist*
The Park Assist function can help the driverwhen maneuvering in tight spaces by indicatingdistances to obstacles using audible signals andgraphics in the center display.
Display view showing obstacle zones and sensor sec-tors.
The center display shows an overview of the vehi-cle in relation to objects that have been detected.
The marked sector indicates where the obstacleis located. The closer the vehicle symbol is to amarked sector forward/rearward, the closer thedetected obstacle is to your vehicle.
The side sectors change color as the distancebetween the vehicle and an object decreases.
The audible signals will also speed up the closerthe obstacle is to the vehicle. The volume of theaudio system will be automatically lowered.
Audible signals for obstacles in front and to thesides of the vehicle are active when the vehicle ismoving but will cease after the vehicle has beenstationary for approx. 2 seconds. Audible signalsfor obstacles behind the vehicle will remain activeeven when the vehicle is stationary.
If a detected obstacle is within approx. 30 cm(1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, thetone will become constant and the active sen-sor's field closest to the vehicle symbol will befilled in.
At distances within approx. 25 cm (0.8 ft) from anobstacle to the sides of the vehicle, an rapid puls-ing signal will be given and the active sectorfields will change color from ORANGE to RED.
The volume of the Park Assist audible signalscan be adjusted while the signal is being givenusing the >II knob or in the center display's Topview under Settings.
NOTE
Besides in the sector closest to the vehi-cle symbol, audible warnings are only pro-vided for objects located directly in thevehicle's path.
WARNING
The parking sensors have dead/blindspots where objects cannot be detected.
Pay particular attention to people andanimals near the vehicle.
Bear in mind that the front end of thevehicle may swing out towards oncomingtraffic during the parking maneuver.
WARNING
The function is supplementary driver sup-port intended to facilitate driving and helpmake it safer – it cannot handle all situa-tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-tions.
The driver is advised to read all sectionsin the Owner's Manual about this functionto learn of its limitations, which the drivermust be aware of before using the func-tion.
Driver support functions are not a substi-tute for the driver's attention and judg-ment. The driver is always responsible forensuring the vehicle is driven in a safemanner, at the appropriate speed, with anappropriate distance to other vehicles,and in accordance with current trafficrules and regulations.

360° view *
The location of the cameras and their approximate fieldsof vision.
The 360° view function activates all Park AssistCameras and all four sides of the vehicle areshown in the center display at once to help thedriver see what is around the vehicle whilemaneuvering at low speeds.
From the 360° view, each camera view can beactivated separately:
Tap the screen to select the camera's field ofvision, e.g. in the area in front/above the frontcamera.
The active cameras will be indi-cated by a camera symbol onthe vehicle symbol in the centerdisplay.
If the vehicle is equipped with Park AssistSystem*, the distance to detected obstacles willbe illustrated by fields in different colors.
The cameras can be activated automatically ormanually.
Back
The rear camera is located above the license plate.
The rear camera shows a wide area behind thevehicle. On certain models, part of the bumperand the towbar (if installed) may be visible.
Objects on the center display may appear to beleaning slightly. This is normal.
Front camera
The front Park Assist Camera is located in the grille.
The front camera can be useful when pulling outfrom areas with limited visibility, such as a drive-way surrounded by a hedge. The front camera isactive at speeds up to 25 km/h (16 mph) and isautomatically turned off when the vehicleexceeds this speed.
If the vehicle does not reach a speed of 50 km/h(30 mph) and speed falls below 22 km/h(14 mph) within 1 minute after the front cameraturns off, the camera will be reactivated.

Park Assist Camera trajectory lines*
The Park Assist Camera uses trajectory linesand fields on the screen to indicate the vehicle'sposition in relation to its immediate surround-ings.
Example of trajectory lines.
The trajectory lines show the anticipated trajec-tory for the vehicle's outermost dimensions basedon the current position of the steering wheel to
help simplify parallel parking, backing into tightspaces or attaching a trailer.
The lines on the screen are projected as if theywere painted lines on the ground behind thevehicle and are directly affected by the way inwhich the steering wheel is turned. This enablesthe driver to see path the vehicle will take, even ifhe/she turns the steering wheel.
These lines also indicate the outermost limits thatany object (towbar, rearview mirrors, corners ofthe body, etc.) extends out from the vehicle.
NOTE
When reversing with a trailer that is notelectrically connected to the vehicle, thescreen guide lines show the path thevehicle will take – not the trailer.
The screen does not show guide lineswhen a trailer is electrically connected tothe vehicle's electrical system.
Guide lines are not shown when zoomingin.
