Parking aid
Parking system plus
Description
Applies to: vehicles with parking system plus/park assist
B8V-0686
RAH-8914
Fig. 131 Infotainment system: visual distance display
The parking system plus uses audio and visual
warnings to help you avoid obstacles when park-
ing.
Sensors are located in the front and rear bump-
ers. If these detect an obstacle, audible and visu-
al signals warn you.
Make sure the sensors are not covered by stick-
ers, deposits or any other obstructions as it may
impair the function of the system. For informa-
tion on cleaning, see > page 342.
The display field begins approximately at:
@ 4 ft (1.20 m)
@ 3 ft (0.90 m)
® 5.2 ft (1.60 m)
@ 3 ft (0.90 m)
©* 3 ft (0.90 m)®
@) Applies to: vehicles with park assist
Audio signals
The closer your vehicle gets to a detected obsta-
cle, the shorter the time between the audible sig-
nals. A continuous tone sounds when an obstacle
is less than approximately 1 foot (0.30 m) away
from the front or rear of the vehicle. A continu-
ous tone sounds when an obstacle is less than
approximately 0.7 feet (0.20 m) away from the
sides* of the vehicle. Do not continue driving for-
ward or in reverse >@ in General information on
page 136.
Visual warnings
The visual warnings in the Infotainment system
display help you to detect the critical vehicle area
and to estimate the distance to an obstacle
> fig. 131.
Red segments show identified obstacles that are
in your vehicle's path. The red lines mark the ex-
pected direction of travel according to the steer-
ing angle. A white segment indicates an identi-
fied obstacle that is outside of the vehicle's path.
As your vehicle comes closer to the obstacle, the
segments move closer to the vehicle. The colli-
sion area has been reached when the next to last
segment is displayed. Obstacles in the collision
area, including those outside of the vehicle's
path, are shown in red. Do not continue driving
forward or in reverse > A\ in General information
on page 136, >@ in General information on
page 136!
G) Tips
— The segments in the side area* are detected
and analyzed when passing. If you switch
the ignition off and on again or open the
door, or if the vehicle is stationary for a peri-
od of time, the surrounding area may have
changed in the meantime. Therefore, the
side area* will be displayed in black.
— If the distance to an obstacle remains con-
stant, the volume of the distance warning
gradually lowers after a few seconds until it
is muted (this does not apply to the continu-
ous tone). If the obstacle comes closer than
it was before the sound was muted, the
tone will sound again. If the obstacle be-
comes farther away than it was before the
sound was muted, no tone will sound. Pay
attention to the vehicle's surroundings
when you start to drive.
