The system uses ultrasound waves to calculate the distance between the
bumper and an obstacle. The ultrasonic sensors are, depending on vehicle
equipment, located in the back or in the front bumper » Fig. 177.

Audible signals
The interval between the acoustic signals becomes shorter as the clearance is
reduced. A continuous tone sounds from a distance of approx. 30 cm - danger
area. From this moment on do not continue driving!
The acoustic signals can be set in the Infotainment » Owner´s Manual Infotain-
ment , chapter CAR - Vehicle Settings .

Note■
If with Version 3 vehicles not all fields around the vehicle are active after ac-
tivation the vehicle should be moved forwards or backwards.■

Information messages

Park Assist (following referred to system) helps drivers park in suitable parallel
and perpendicular parking places or also to manoeuvre out of parallel parking
spaces.
The system takes over the steering movements when parking or leaving a
parking space. The driver operates the pedals and the shift lever or gear selec-
tor.
The state in which the steering wheel is operated by the system, is referred to
as parking operation.
The Park Assist is an extension of the parking aid » page 147 and operates on
the basis of data collected by the ultrasonic sensors.
For this reason, the chapter on the parking aid is to be read carefully and the safety notes are to be observed. 
155Assist systems

WARNING■The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 142, in section Introduction .■
During the parking process, the system automatically performs rapid
steering movements. While it is doing so, do not place your hands between
the steering wheel – risk of injury!
■
During a parking manoeuvre on loose or slippery surfaces (gravel, snow,
ice, etc.) you may stray from the calculated road. It is therefore recommen-
ded that you do not use the system in such situations.
CAUTION
The correct evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure de-
pends on the circumference of the wheels on the vehicle.■
The system only works correctly if the vehicle is fitted with the wheel size
approved by the manufacturer.
■
Abstain from using the system when the vehicle is fitted with snow chains or
a temporary spare wheel.
■
If wheels other than those approved by the manufacturer are mounted, the
resulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This
can be avoided by readjusting the system at a specialist garage.
CAUTION
If other vehicles are parked behind the kerb or on it, the system can also guide
your vehicle beyond the kerb or onto it. Ensure that the wheels or the wheel
rims of your vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.
Note
■ We recommend performing the parking at a safe speed to about 5 km / h.■The driver can stop the parking process at any time by pressing the symbol
key » Fig. 191
on page 156 or by a driver steering intervention.FunctioningFig. 191
System button
Read and observe and on page 156 first.
The system support is provided in the following manner.
▶ While the parking space search is going on, a measurement and evaluation of
the parking space size is completed.
▶ The display of the instrument cluster (hereinafter only display) shows suita-
ble parking spaces and a parking mode is recommended.
▶ The display shows instructions and information before the start and during
the parking.
▶ The road way is calculated that the vehicle uses during the parking.
▶ The front wheels are automatically rotated during the parking.
Conditions for the system function
The system can look for a parking space only if the following basic conditions
are met.
The system is activated.
The vehicle speed is less than 40 km / h (parallel parking).
The vehicle speed is less than 20 km / h (transverse parking).
The distance to a number of parked vehicles is approximately 0.5 - 1.5 m.
The TCS is activated » page 143, Braking and stabilisation systems .
The system can only carry out the parking if the following basic conditions are
met.
The vehicle is travelling less than about 7 km/h.
The parking procedure takes less than 6 minutes.
There is no driver intervention in the automatic steering operation.

and on page 156 first.
Automatic brake assist when speeding
If a velocity of 7 km / h is exceeded during the parking manoeuvre for the first
time, the speed will be automatically reduced by the system to less than 7 km /
h. This prevents the parking manoeuvre from aborting.
Automatic emergency braking
If the system detects a risk of collision during parking, automatic emergency
braking takes place to prevent a collision.
The parking is terminated by the emergency braking.
CAUTION
The automatic emergency braking is not triggered by the system when the

If exceeding the speed limit is required during the regulation, for example
when overtaking, then the accelerator pedal is to be fully pressed.
When exceeding the speed limit, an acoustic signal sounds and the warning

The Adaptive Cruise Control (hereinafter referred to as ACC) maintains the set
speed or the distance to the vehicle ahead without the accelerator or brake
pedal being pressed.
The front of the vehicle and the distance to the vehicle ahead is monitored by
a radar sensor » page 143.
The state in which the ACC maintains the speed or the proximity is described
as control from here on.
WARNING■
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 142, in section Introduction .■
The driver must always be ready to take over steering of the vehicle him-
self (accelerate or brake). 
163Assist systems

Narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side
Narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side are not detected by the ra-
dar sensor until they are within the sensor's range » Fig. 205 - 
.
If necessary, slow down the car by applying the brake.
Other vehicles changing lanes
Vehicles that change onto the lane with a small proximity » Fig. 206 - 
do not
have to be detected by the radar sensor in time. The result may be a delayed
ACC response.
If necessary, slow down the car by applying the brake.
Stationary vehicles
The ACC does not detect stationary objects! When a vehicle detected by the
ACC turns or sheers off and there is a stationary vehicle in front of this vehicle,
» Fig. 206 -
 the ACC does not respond to the stationary vehicle.
In such cases, take over the steering and stop the vehicle by applying the foot
brake.
When overtaking
When your vehicle is being controlled (the speed is lower than that which is
stored) and the indicator is activated, the ACC interprets this situation as
meaning that the driver intends to overtake. The ACC automatically acceler-
ates the vehicle, thereby reducing the proximity to a vehicle ahead.
If the vehicle changes to the fast lane and no vehicle is detected ahead, the
ACC accelerates until the set speed is reached and then keeps it constant.
Acceleration can be cancelled at any time by touch on the brake pedal or
pressing the button  on the lever
» Fig. 204 on page 165 .
Vehicles with special load or special body parts
Other vehicles with a load or with body parts protruding from the sides, back
or top of the vehicle contour may not be detected by the ACC.
Control should therefore be disabled whenever you are driving behind or over-
taking such a vehicle.
Towing a trailer
When towing, or in when another accessory is connected to the trailer socket
the ACC control is set with a lower rate. The manner of driving should there-
fore be adapted to this limitation.Information messages
