Please note that low objects a lready s ignalled by a war ning can disap­
pe ar from the sys te m 's d etection r ange and will not co nti nue to be
signa lled .
If the distance to an obstacle remains t he same, the vo lume of the
dis tan ce warn ing is gradu ally redu ced af ter abou t 4 seco nds.
Approaching another obstacle will result in the distance warning
s ou nding a t th e normal vo lume aga in.
Malfunctions in the system
If a wa rning tone is aud ible fo r about five seconds when you turn o n
the ignition , there is a ma lfunction in the system. Have the prob lem
c o rrected by yo ur auth orized Aud i de aler.
Keep the sensors in the rear bumper clean and free from ice so t hat
t he acous tic par k ass ist system can func tion prope rly.
& WARNING
• Sens ors have dead space s in whi ch objects cannot be dete cted.
Be especi ally alert for small children and animals , since they are
not alway s detected by the sen sors.
• The acou stic parking system is not a substitute for the dr iver 's
own caution and alertne ss. Ultimate respon sibility alway s
remains w ith the driver during parking and similar maneuvers.
Alway s w atch wh ere you are driving .
• You should always adjust the volume and frequency of the
warning tone s so that you can e asily hear the acoustic di stan ce
wa rning e ven if the radio is pl aying, the air -conditioner blowe r is
on High or there i s a high level of out side noi se .
- Check the setting s whenever anyone else has driven the
vehicle before you.
0 Note
• Remember that low obst acles fo r which a warning has a lready
been issued may "d ive" below the system 's sensing zone if the ve hicle
is be ing b acked up closer . In th is case, the wa rni ng so und shutting off

Fig. 154 Parking
mode 2: parallel
parking
Veh icles with the parking system are equipped with a rear view
camera
in addit ion to the acoust ic parking system.
You can choose between two modes to assist you with parking . Fo r
example, you can use "parking mode 1" when parking in a park ing
space or garage~ fig. 153. When you want to park parallel to the
edge of the street, select "parking mode 2" ~fig . 154. The
rear acoustic park assist system is integrated in the rear of the
vehicle and the rear view camera is integrated in the rear lid
~page
162 .
& WARNING
• The rear view camera has blind spots, in which objects cannot
be detected . Be especially careful to check for small children and
animals before backing up. Small children and animals will not
always be detected by the sensors. •

Sensors in the bumper
Sensors are located in the rear bumpers . If these detect a n obsta cle,
audib le and visual sig nals wa rn you. The range at w hich the sensors
beg in to measure is approximately:
T o the sid e
2 ft (0. 60 m)
Center rear 5 .2 ft (1.60 m)
Distan ce warning when reversing s tarts w hen an obsta cle is detec ted
in the range of the parking ass ist system. As the d ista nce decreases,
t he time in te rval between the audib le tones becomes shorter .
When the dis tance is less tha n 1ft
(0.30 m), the tone becomes
cont inuo us. At th is point yo u should stop back ing up.
If the dis tance to an obs tacle stays the s am e, t he volume o f the
distance signal chime is grad ually reduced after about
4 seconds
(does not affe ct the conti nuous signal tone) . App roac hing an oth er

• If the position and the installation angle of the camera has
changed, for example, after a rear end collision, do not continue
to use the system for safety reasons. Have it checked by a qualified dealership .

Switching on/off
The rear view camera switches on automatically together
with the acoustic park assist when you put the vehicle in
reverse.
Switching on
- Put the vehicle in reverse gear, the acoustic parking
system with rear view camera is activa ted automatically .
Activation of the acoustic parking system is confirmed by
a brief acknowledgement sound.
Switching off
-Drive faster than 6 mph (10 km/h), or
- take the vehicle out of reverse gear. The acoustic parking
system is immediately deactivated, and the rear view
camera picture is deact ivated automatically after a period
of about 15 seconds, or
- switch off the ignition.
T he delay in deactivating the camera provides an uninterrupted view
behind the vehicle espec ially when maneuver ing in tight parking
spaces and prevents the picture from tu rning off the every time you
shift out of reverse .
If the warning message appears in the display but not the rear view
came ra pict ure, read and confi rm the warning message . T he acoustic
distance s ignal is always active. If
you press a function button on the MMI control console, the rear
view came ra pictu re disappears. The rear view camera pict ure reap­
pears the next time you park .
Further information on the warning message and the MMI control
conso le can be found in the MMI instruction booklet.
[I] Tips
• The rear view came ra pi cture is avai lable as soon as the MM I
Display or the MMI is switched on, or the start-up phase is completed.
• Keep the sensors in the rear bumper and the rear view came ra lens
clean and free of snow and ice, so that the parking system can work
properly . P lease follow the additional notes on~

The following steps apply only when there is no obstacle
(such as a wall) near the parking spot. Otherwise, please read
the "Tips on Parking Next to Obstacles".
- Activate the turn signal.
- Switch the MMI on and select the reverse gear. The
parking aid turns on and parking mode 1 appea rs on the

- Position your vehicle parallel to the edge of the street,
approximately 3 ft (1 m) from a parked vehicle.
- Press the

- Back up in reverse gear and align your vehicle so that the
blue area ® borders on the rear end of the vehicle or on
the parking spot line. The blue area represents an exten­
sion of the vehicle's outline by approximately 16 ft (5 m)
to the rear. The long side of the blue area should be on the
curb. The entire blue area must fit into the parking spot.
- While the vehicle is stationary, turn the steering wheel to

Parking next to obstacles
When there is an obstacle (such as a wall) next to the parking spot,
choose a spot with more space on the sides. Position the long side of
the blue a rea so that the re is sufficient space from the curb. The area
must not be on the curb. You will also need to start turning the
steering wheel much earlier. There should be a sufficient amount of
space between the curb and the blue curve, and the blue curve
=> fig . 160 must not touch the curb .
& WARNING
• The rear view camera does not show the entire area behind the
vehicle => page
160, fig. 155. 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! _,,,

General information
The Homelink ® feature can learn up to three radio
frequency codes for most current transmitters used for
operating garage doors, estate gates , home or outdoor
lighting systems, and other devices.
Yo u must fi rst p rogr am the Home link® tra nsmi tte r be fore you can
use the system=>
page 167, "Programming the Homelink ® trans­
m itter".
In order to program the Homelink ® transm itter fo r devices utilizing
rolling code, a second person on a ladder who can sa fely reach t he
garage door opener motor is recommended. It is also necessary to
locate the "learn" button on yo ur garage door opener motor . Re fer to
t he oper ating ins truc tions fo r th e opene r, as the loca tion and color o f
this button may vary by manufacturer .
Yo u can still use the original remote control for the device at any
t ime .
& WARNING
• Never use the Homelink'"' transmitter with any garage door
opener that does have not the safety stop and rever se feature as
required by fed eral safety standards. This includes any garage
door opener model manufactured before April
l , 1982 .
• A garage door opener which cannot detect an object, signaling
the door to stop and reverse does not meet current federal safety
standards . Using a garage door opener without these features
increases risk of serious injury or death.
& WARNING (cont inu ed )
• For safety reasons never release the parking brake o r start the
engine while anyone i s standing in front of the vehicle .
• A ga rage door or an estate gate may sometimes be set in
motion when the Homelink ® remote control is being
programmed. If the device is repeatedly activated, this can over­
s train motor and dam age its electri cal components · an over­
heated motor is a fi re hazard!
• To avoid pos sible injurie s
or property damage , plea se always
make absolutely certain that no persons or objects are located in
the range of motion of any equipment being operated.
