General information
The rear cross-traffic assist monitors the area be-
hind and next to the vehicle using radar sensors
at the rear corners of the vehicle. The system can
detect moving objects that are approaching, such
as vehicles > fig. 136. A display in the MMI and
various warnings provide assistance when exiting
a parking space.
Requirements
— The parking aid is switched on > page 159 or
reverse gear is selected.
— The speed when driving in reverse must not be
higher than approximately 9 mph (15 km/h).
Displays, warnings, and braking
— Display: the display @ appears only when the
parking aid is active. For vehicles with peripher-
al cameras, this only happens in the Rear and
Rear corner camera views. Arrows show the di-
rection from which the cross traffic is approach-
ing.
— Audible warnings: a continuous tone may
sound as an additional warning when driving in
reverse.
— Automatic brake activation: if you do not react
to a warning, a brief braking by the system can
warn you of a potential collision with an ap-
proaching object.
The audible warning signal and the automatic
brake activation occur only when driving in re-
verse.
Switching on and off
— Applies to MMI: Select on the home screen: VE-
HICLE > Parking aid > Rear cross-traffic assist.
Or:
— Select |...] > Rear cross-traffic assist in the cen-
ter display when the parking system is active.

Assisted parking
(err Melero)
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
If your vehicle is equipped with park assist, this
system helps you find suitable parking spaces.
Parking spaces are measured using ultrasonic
sensors on the sides of the vehicle.
The system helps you to park while the driver
monitors the vehicle's surroundings with the
parking aids, cameras*, and direct eye contact.
The vehicle moves the steering wheel autono-
mously.
Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 126.

ter display.
The LED in the button will turn on and the display
for finding a parking space will appear in the cen-
ter display > fig. 140.
Searching for parking spaces
> Drive forward to the row of parking spaces at a
low speed. For the best parking results, the ve-
hicle should be approximately 3 feet (1 m) from
the row of parking spaces.
> The parking space search is first done on the
side of your lane. To switch the side for the
parking space search, activate the turn signal
for that side. Depending on vehicle equipment,
you may also be able to press on the side next
to your vehicle in the center display.
Selecting the parking space
If the system finds a parking space that could be
suitable for the vehicle length and width, it will
be displayed. The system automatically suggests
a parking option @.
If the parking space allows different parking op-
tions, they can be selected manually. Press one of
the suggested parking options (@ in the center
display.
Starting the parking process
As soon as the vehicle has reached the correct po-
sition, a P will appear in the center display above
the selected parking space @). The roof in the
parking aid display @) may show the required
braking or driving direction.
> Keep the vehicle as parallel as possible to the
parked vehicles or to the side of the road.
>» Make sure that the parking space is suitable for
your vehicle >@).
> Start the assisted parking process > page 168.
Maneuvering area
The vehicle can go off course during the parking
process > A\. If there are obstacles within the
maneuvering area that block or endanger the
parking process, for example on the opposite
side of the street, a message may appear. You
may need to drive farther forward and stay closer
to the row of parking spaces.
Z\ WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 126.
— The driver is always responsible when enter-
ing or exiting a parking space and during
similar maneuvers.
— Sensors and cameras have spots in which
the surrounding area cannot be detected.
Objects, animals, and people may only be
detected with limitations may not be detect-
ed at all. Always monitor the traffic and the
vehicle's surroundings directly and do not
become distracted.
@) Note
— Parking spaces classified as suitable by the
system may have been detected incorrectly.

Parking and maneuvering
The driver must decide if the parking space
displayed is suitable for the vehicle.
— Certain conditions near the parking space
may cause the parking process to fail, such
as if the parking space is near trees or posts,
or if the ground is covered, for example,
with gravel, snow, or ice.
@) Tips
— If you did not drive past a suitable parking
space too quickly, the parking space search
can also be activated afterward by pressing
Pe.
— The Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC)
must not be switched off during the parking
process. If the ESC intervenes, the parking
process
will be canceled.
— You can also drive into a perpendicular park-
ing space yourself and then activate the sys-
tem. If this is the case, the front of the vehi-
cle should already be in the space (@)
=> page 166, fig. 138 so that the sensors
can measure the space.
— The system is not available when certain as-
sist systems are switched on.
— If there are suitable parking spaces on both
sides of the street, for example on a one-
way street, you can change the side where
the system is searching for parking spaces
by activating the turn signal for the other
side or by pressing on that side in the center
display.
— The park systems do not provide support for
assisted parking on tight curves.
Park assist
General information
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
The park assist helps you when parking and exit-
ing parking spaces after the parking space
search. The park assist takes over the steering of
the vehicle while the driver accelerates, brakes,
