cannot be activated or meaningfully used.
Do not use the system, e.g.:
▷In construction zones.▷In rescue lanes.▷Within city limits.
Weather
In the event of unfavorable weather and light conditions, e. g. if there is rain, snowfall, slush,
fog or glare, this may result in poorer recogni‐
tion of vehicles as well as short-term interrup‐
tions for vehicles that are already detected. Drive attentively, and react to the current trafficsituation. If necessary, intervene actively, e.g.
by braking, steering or evading.
PDC Park Distance Control The conceptPDC is a support when parking. Objects that
you are approaching slowly in front of or be‐
hind the vehicle are indicated with:
▷Signal tones.▷Visual display.
With parking assistant: obstacles on the side of
the vehicle that are detected by the sensors of
the parking assistant, can also be reported by
the PDC. Side protection, refer to page 183.
General information
Ultrasound sensors in the bumpers and possi‐
bly sideways on the vehicle measure the dis‐
tances from objects.
The maneuvering range, depending on the ob‐
stacle and environmental conditions, is approx.
6 ft/2 m.
An acoustic warning is first given with the fol‐
lowing circumstances:
▷By the front center sensors at ap‐
prox. 74 in/70 cm.▷By the rear middle sensors at approx.
5 ft/1.50 m.▷By the corner sensors at ap‐
prox. 24 in/60 cm.Seite 180ControlsDriver assistance systems180

Parking aid linesPathway lines
Pathway lines help you to estimate the space
required when parking and maneuvering on
level roads.
Pathway lines depend on the current steering
angle and are continuously adjusted to the
steering wheel movements.
Turning circle lines
Turning circle lines can only be superimposed
on the rearview camera image together with
pathway lines.
Turning circle lines show the course of the
smallest possible turning radius on a level
road.
Only one turning radius line is displayed after
the steering wheel is turned past a certain an‐
gle.
Parking using pathway and turning radius
lines1.Position the vehicle so that the red turning
radius line leads to within the limits of the
parking space.2.Turn the steering wheel to the point where
the green pathway line covers the corre‐
sponding turning radius line.
Obstacle marking
Obstacles behind the vehicle are detected by
the PDC sensors.
Obstacle markings can be shown in the cam‐
era image.
Their colored margins of the obstacle mark‐
ings match the markings of the PDC.
Car wash view
The car wash view assists when entering a car
wash by displaying the floor and the own lane.
