PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING: To help avoid personal
injury, always use caution when in
reverse (R) and when using the sensing
system. WARNING: The system may not
detect objects with surfaces that absorb
reflection. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash. WARNING: 
Traffic control
systems, inclement weather, air brakes,
external motors and fans may affect the
correct operation of the sensing
system.This may cause reduced
performance or false alerts. WARNING: 
The system may not
detect small or moving objects,
particularly those close to the ground.
Note: If your vehicle has MyKey ™, the
sensing system cannot be switched off
when a MyKey ™ is present.
 See Principle
of Operation (page 61).
Note: Keep the sensors on the bumper or
fascia free from snow, ice and large
accumulations of dirt. If the sensors are
covered, the system ’s accuracy can be
affected. Do not clean the sensors with
sharp objects.
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage to
the bumper or fascia, leaving it misaligned
or bent, the sensing zone may be altered
causing inaccurate measurement of
obstacles or false alerts. Note:
Certain add-on devices installed
around the bumper or fascia may create
false alerts. For example, large trailer
hitches, bike or surfboard racks, license plate
brackets, bumper covers or any other device
that may block the normal detection zone
of the system. Remove the add-on device
to prevent false alerts.
Note: When you connect a trailer to your
vehicle, the rear parking aid may detect the
trailer and therefore provide an alert. Disable
the rear parking aid when you connect a
trailer to prevent the alert.
The sensing system warns the driver of
obstacles within a certain range of your
vehicle. The system turns on automatically
whenever you switch the ignition on.
You can switch the system off through the
information display menu or from the
pop-up message that appears once you
shift the transmission into reverse (R).  See
General Information
 (page 97).  If your
vehicle has a parking aid button, you can
switch the system off by pressing the
button.
If a fault is present in the system, a warning
message appears in the information
display.  See 
Information Messages
(page 101).
PARKING AID WARNING: The parking aid system
can only assist you to detect objects
when your vehicle is moving at parking
speeds. To help avoid personal injury you
must take care when using the parking
aid system.

Vehicles With a Spare Wheel
The spare wheel is under the rear of your
vehicle.
If the spare wheel is the same type and
size as your vehicle road wheel, you can fit
the spare wheel and continue to drive in
the normal manner.
If the spare wheel is not the same type and
size as your vehicle road wheel, it has a
label showing the maximum driving speed
limit. Note:
If your vehicle is fitted with a tire
pressure monitoring system, the warning
indicator will flash if you fit the spare wheel
to your vehicle. To restore the correct
operation of the tire pressure monitoring
system, you must have the repaired road
wheel and tire assembly refitted to your
vehicle.  See Tire Pressure Monitoring

occurring to the tire pressure monitoring
system sensors, make sure you have a
damage tire repaired or replaced by a tire

WARNING: Chock the diagonally
opposite wheel to the punctured tire with
an appropriate block or wheel chock. A
wheel chock may be in the B-pillar or in
a storage compartment in the front
right-hand side stepwell. WARNING: 
Make sure that the
arrows on directional tires point in the
direction of rotation when your vehicle
is moving forward. If you have to fit a
spare tire with the arrows pointing in the
opposite direction have the tire refitted
as soon as possible.
1. Use the locking lug nut key to loosen the locking lug nut.
2. Loosen the remaining lug nuts, but do not remove them.
3. Raise your vehicle until the tire is clear of the ground.
4. Remove the lug nuts and the road wheel.
Note: Do not lay alloy road wheels face
down on the ground.
Installing a Road Wheel WARNING: 
Use only approved
wheel and tire sizes. Using other sizes
could damage your vehicle and will make
the National Type Approval invalid. WARNING: 
Make sure there is no
grease or oil on the threads or the
surface between the wheel lugs and
nuts. This can cause the lug nuts to
loosen while driving. WARNING: 
When you install a
wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt
or foreign materials present on the
mounting surfaces of the wheel or the
surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make
sure to secure any fasteners that attach
the rotor to the hub so they do not
interfere with the mounting surfaces of
the wheel. Installing wheels without
correct metal-to-metal contact at the
wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to
come off while your vehicle is in motion,
resulting in loss of vehicle control,
personal injury or death. WARNING: 
Only use the specific
lug nuts and wheels supplied with your
vehicle. If in doubt, contact an authorized
dealer. WARNING: 
Do not install alloy
wheels using lug nuts designed for use
with steel wheels. WARNING: 
The lug nuts of alloy
wheels and spoked steel wheels can also
be used for the steel spare wheel for a
short time (maximum two weeks).
1. Install the wheel.
