Sensor s in th e bump er
Fig . 17 1 Tru nk l id:
L oca tion of th e r ear
vi ew c amera
Sensors are located in the rear bumpers. If these detect an obstac le,
audible and visual signals warn you . The range at which the sensors
begin to measure is approximately:
To the side 2 ft (0.60 ml
Center rear
5.2 ft (1.60 m)
Distance warning when reversing starts when an obstacle is
detected in the range of the parking assist system. As the distance
decreases, the time interval between the audible tones becomes
shorter.
When the distance is less than 1ft (0.30 ml, the tone becomes continuous . At this point you should stop backing up.
If the distance to an obstacle stays the same, the vo lume of the
distance signal chime is gradually reduced after about 4 seconds
(does not affect the continuous signal tone). Approaching another
obstac le wi ll cause the distance signal to sound again at the normal
volume.
R ea r vi ew camera cover age ar ea
The MMI display shows the area covered by the rear view camera
=>
page 157, fig . 170 G) . Objects that are not in the area covered 0
are not shown on the MMI display. We recommend that you practice parking with the rear view camera
in a traffic -free location or parking lot to become familiar with the
system, the orientation lines, and their function. When doing this,
there should be good ligh t and weather conditions.
In the MMI d isplay, objec ts or vehicles appear closer or further away
if:
• you are driving in reverse gear from a level surface onto an
incline, or a downward slope,
• you are driving in reverse gear toward protruding objects,
• the vehic le is carrying too much load in the rear.
The accuracy of the orientation lines and b lue surfaces diminishes
if:
• the rear view camera does not provide a reliable image, for
example, in poor visibility conditions or if the lens is dirty,
• the image on the screen is not visible due to sun glare and reflec
tion.
C aring for the rear vi ew c amera l en s
The rear view camera is located above the rear license plate bracket.
For the parking assist to operate, the lens => fig. 171 must be kept
clean :
• Dampen the lens with a household alcohol -based glass cleaner,
and clean the lens with a dry cloth
~ 0 .
• Remove snow with a hand brush and ice preferably with a de
icing spray=>
0 .

& WARNING
• The rear view camera does not show the entire area behind the
vehicle~
page 157 , fig. 170. Watch out especially for small chil
dren and animals . The rear view camera cannot always detect
them , posing risk of an accident!
• Please note that objects not touching the ground can appear to
be further away than they really are (for example, the bumper of a
parked vehicle, a trailer hitch, or the rear of a truck). In this case,
you should not use the help lines to help with parking, which
poses danger of an accident!
0 Note
• Low obstacles already signaled by a warning can disappear from
the system's detection range as they are approached and will not
continue to be signaled . Objects such as barrier chains, trailer draw
bars, thin painted vertical poles or fences may not be detected by
the system, posing risk of damage.
• In the MMI display , the direction of travel of the vehicle rear is
represented depending on the steering wheel angle. The vehicle
front swings out more than the vehicle rear. Maintain plenty of distance from an obstacle so that your ou tside mirror or a corner of
your vehicle does not collide with any obstacles -danger of
accident! •

What impairs driving safety?
Safe driving is directly related to the condition of the
vehicle, the driver as well as the driver's ability to concen
trate on the road without being distracted.
The driver is responsible for the safety of the vehicle and all
of its occupants. If your ability to drive is impaired, safety
risks for everybody in the vehicle increase and you also
become a hazard to everyone else on the road =>& .There
fore:
Do not let yourself be distracted by passengers or by
using a cellular telephone .
NEVER drive when your driving ability is impaired (by
medications, alcohol, drugs, etc.).
- Observe all traffic laws, rules of the road and speed limits
and plain common sense .
- ALWAYS adjust your speed to road, traffic and weather
conditions.
- Take frequent breaks on long trips. Do not drive for more
than two hours at a stretch.
- Do NOT drive when you are tired, under pressure or when
you are stressed .
& WARNING
Impaired driving safety increases the risk of serious personal
injury and death whenever a vehicle is being used. •

Plastic and vinyl
Plastic needs special care.
Use a clean, damp cloth or sponge to remove dust and light surface
dirt. For other soil, use a lukewarm all -purpose cleaning solution or
a mild saddle soap for vinyl trim. Remove water spots and traces of
soap with a clean, damp cloth or sponge . Use a clean, soft cloth to
rub dry .
Grease, tar or oil stains can be removed with a clean cloth or sponge
soaked with all-purpose cleaner or with a solvent designed espe
cially to clean vinyl.
Occasionally apply a colorless vinyl or leather preservative to retain
the material's luster and pliability.
& WARNING
Always read and heed all WARNINGS and other information
~ page252. •
Aluminum trim
Use only neutral-pH products to remove spots and deposits from
aluminum surfaces. Chrome care products and alkaline cleaners
will attack aluminum surfaces and can damage them over time.
& WARNING
Always read and heed all WARNINGS and other information
~ page252 .•
Touch-up paint
Minor paint damages should be touched up immediately.
-Use either a touch -up paint stick or spray paint to cover
minor scratches and nicks.

and stone chips. Scratches should be touched up soon after they
occur to prevent corrosion.
If a spot starts to rust, however, a simple touch-up job will not be
enough. The affected surface must be sanded smooth and coated
with an anti-rust primer before the painted finish can be restored.
The number for the original vehicle paint can be found on the
vehicle identification label~
