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
