Driving and operating211Side blind spot alertThe Side blind spot alert system
detects and reports objects on either
side of the vehicle, within a specified
"blind spot" zone. The system
displays a visual alert in each exterior
mirror, when detecting objects that
may not be visible in the interior and
exterior mirrors.9 Warning
Side blind spot alert does not
replace driver vision.
The system does not detect:
● vehicles outside the side blind zones which may be rapidly
approaching
● pedestrians, cyclists or animals
Before changing a lane, always
check all mirrors, look over the
shoulder and use the turn lights.When the vehicle is started, both
exterior mirror displays will briefly
illuminate to indicate that the system
is operating.
When the system detects a moving
vehicle in the side blind spot while
driving forwards, either while passing
a vehicle or being passed, a yellow
warning symbol F will illuminate in
the relevant exterior mirror. If the
driver then activates the turn lights,
the warning symbol F starts
flashing yellow as a warning not to
change lanes.
Side blind spot alert is active at any
speed.
Deactivation
Activation or deactivation of the Side
blind zone alert can be set in the
vehicle personalisation menu in the
Info Display.
Vehicle personalisation 3 123.
Info Display 3 117.
Deactivation is indicated by a message in the Driver Information
Centre.
System limitations Occasional missed alerts can occur
under normal circumstances or in
sharp curves. The system can
temporarily alert of objects in the blind spot at specific weather conditions
(rain, hail etc). Driving on a wet road
or in the transitions from a dry area to
a wet area can cause the control
indicator F to light up, as water
splash can be interpreted as an object. Otherwise the control indicator
F may illuminate due to guardrails,
signs, trees, shrubs or other immobile objects. This is normal operation and
the system does not need to be
serviced.

212Driving and operatingThe system may not operate properly
when:
● Ice, snow, mud, stickers, magnets, metal plates, or
anything else covers the sensors.
● Driving in heavy rainstorms.
● The vehicle had an accident or if the area surrounding the
detection sensor is damaged or
not properly repaired.
● There are extreme temperature changes.
● The vehicle is towing a trailer
In the event of a fault in the system or if the system does not work due to
temporary conditions, a message is
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre. Seek the assistance of a
workshop.
Notice
Each new vehicle requires a
calibration. For optimal
performance, drive as soon as
possible on a straight motorway
road with roadside objects, e.g.
guardrails and barriers for some
distance.Lane change alert
Additional to the side blind spot alert
3 211, lane change alert recognises
rapidly approaching vehicles from
behind on parallel lanes next to your
vehicle.
The system alerts visually in each
exterior mirror when detecting rapidly
approaching vehicles from behind.
The radar distance sensors are
located in the rear bumper.9 Warning
Lane change alert does not
replace driver vision.
Before changing a lane, always
check all mirrors, look over the
shoulder and use the turn light.
When the system detects an
approaching vehicle from behind
which drives considerably faster, the
yellow warning symbol F will
illuminate in the relevant exterior mirror. If the driver then activates the
turn lights, the warning symbol F
starts flashing yellow as a warning not to change lanes.
Lane change alert is active at all
speeds.
When the vehicle is started, both
exterior mirror displays will briefly come on to indicate that the system is operating.

Driving and operating213Detection zones
The system sensors cover a zone of
approx. 3.5 m parallel on both vehicle
sides and approx. 3 m rearwards on
side blind zone alert (A) and approx.
50 m rearwards on lane change alert (B) on parallel lanes. The zones start
at each exterior mirror. The height of
the zone is approx. between 0.5 m
and 2 m off the ground.
Deactivation Activation or deactivation of the lane
change alert can be set in the vehicle personalisation menu in the Info
Display.

214Driving and operatingPanoramic view system
This system allows views of the
vehicle's surroundings to be
displayed as a nearly 360° picture in
the Info Display, like a bird's eye view.
The system uses four cameras: ● rear camera, installed in the tailgate
● front camera, installed in the front
grill below the emblem
● side cameras, located at the bottom of both exterior mirrors
The screen in the Info Display is
divided into two parts: on the left there
is a view from above the vehicle, and
on the right there is the view from front
or the rear displayed, according to the gear engaged. The parking sensors
complete the information on the view.
