yo uth e dis tance between your vehicle and a
de tected obs tacle visually and audibly.
Pa rking Assist PARKTRONIC is on lyan aid. It is
not a substitute foryo ur attention tothe sur‐
ro undings. The responsibility for safe manoeu‐
vring and parking remains with you. Make sure
th at there are no persons, animals or objects in Driving and parking

R Obs tacles bel ow the detection range, e.g.
pe rsons, animals or objects.
R Obs tacles ab ovethe de tection range, e.g.
ove rhanging loads, overhangs or loading

Pa ssive side impact pr otection is an additional
Pa rking Assist PARKTRONIC function which
wa rnsth e driver about obs tacles at the side of
th eve hicle. A warning is issued when obs tacles
are de tected between the front and rear de tec‐
tion range. In order for an object on the side to
be de tected, the sensors in the front and rear
bumper must firs t de tect the object while you
are driving past it.
During the parking procedure or manoeuvring,
objects are de tected as theve hicle drives past.
If yo usteer in the direction of a de tected obs ta‐
cle and there is a risk of a lateral collision, a
wa rning is issued. The segments on the sides
light up yellow or red, depending on the dis tance
to the obs tacle.
