192Driving and operatingRear parking assist
The system warns the driver with
acoustic signals against potentially
hazardous obstacles behind the
vehicle in a distance range up to
50 cm while reverse gear is engaged.
The system operates with ultrasonic
parking assist sensors in the rear bumper.

vehicle is closer to an obstacle,
acoustic warning signals in the
vehicle sound on the respective side.
The interval between the sounds
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to that obstacle. When the
distance is less than approx. 30 cm,
the sound is continuous.
Additionally, the distance to rear
obstacles is displayed by changing
distance lines in the Info Display
3 119. When the obstacle is very
close, + for danger is displayed.

Front-rear parking assist
The front-rear parking assist
measures the distance between the vehicle and obstacles in front and
behind the vehicle. It informs and
warns the driver by giving acoustic
signals and display indication.
It uses two different acoustic warning
signals for the front and rear
monitoring areas, each with a
different tone frequency.
The system operates with ultrasonic parking assist sensors in the rear and
front bumper.
Activation
In addition to the rear parking assist,
the front parking assist is triggered
when an obstacle is detected in front
and the speed of the vehicle is below 6 mph.Info Display without touchscreen

If the vehicle stops for more than 3
seconds in a forward gear, if

194Driving and operatingSystem limitations
In the event of a fault or if the system does not work temporarily, e.g.
because of high external noise level
or other interference factors, H
illuminates in the instrument cluster.
A message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.9 Warning
Under certain circumstances,
various reflective surfaces on
objects or clothing as well as
external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect
obstacles.
Special attention must be paid to
low obstacles which can damage
the lower part of the bumper.
Caution
Performance of the system can be reduced when sensors are
covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist
system can be reduced due to
heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there
are taller vehicles in the vicinity
(e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans,
vans). Object identification and correct distance indication in the
upper part of these vehicles
cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection
cross-section, e.g. objects of
narrow size or soft materials, may
not be detected by the system.
Parking assist systems do not
detect objects outside the
detection range.
Side blind spot alert
The 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.
Side blind spot alert uses some of the
parking assist sensors which are
located in the front and rear bumper
on both sides of the vehicle.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 signal.

196Driving and operatingNo alert will be given in the following
situations:
● in the presence of non-moving objects, e.g. parked vehicles,
barriers, street lamps, road signs
● with vehicles moving in the opposite direction
● driving on a winding road or a sharp corner
● when passing or being passed by
a very long vehicle, e.g. lorry,
coach, which is at the same time
detected at the rear in the blind
spot angle and present in the
driver's forward field of vision
● in very heavy traffic, vehicles detected in front and behind are
confused with a lorry or a
stationary object
● when passing too quickly
DeactivationInfo Display without touchscreen

The system is deactivated in the
vehicle personalisation 3 123.T extinguishes in the instrument
cluster. Additionally, an acoustic
signal sounds.
The state of the system is stored
when switching off the ignition.
The system is automatically
deactivated when connecting a trailer
or bike carrier.
Due to adverse weather conditions
such as heavy rain, false detections
may occur.
Fault
In the event of a fault, T flashes for a
few moments in the instrument
cluster, accompanied by R and a
display message. Have the cause of
the fault remedied by a workshop.
Panoramic view system
This system allows views of the
vehicle's surroundings to be
displayed as a nearly 180° picture in
the Info display, like a bird's eye view.The system uses:
● rear camera, installed in the tailgate
● ultrasonic parking assist sensors in the rear bumper
The screen in the Info Display is
divided into two parts. On the right
there is a view from above the vehicle,
and on the left there is the view from
the rear displayed. The parking
sensors complete the information on
the view from above the vehicle.
Change the volume of the acoustic
signals by pressing 4 in the right
lower zone of the display.

Driving and operating197ActivationPanoramic view system is activated
by:
● engaging reverse gear
● driving up to 6 mph
Functionality
Different views can be selected in the left part of the display. Change the
type of view at any time during a
manoeuvre by touching in the left
lower zone of the display:
● Standard view
● AUTO Mode
● Zoom view
● 180° view
The display is immediately updated
with the type of view selected.
AUTO Mode is activated by default. In
this mode, the system selects the
best view, standard or zoom, to
display according to the information
from the parking sensors.
The state of the system is not kept in memory when the ignition is switched
off.Rear view / Standard view
The area behind the vehicle is
displayed in the screen. The vertical
lines represent the width of the
vehicle with mirrors unfolded. The
direction of the lines changes with the position of the steering wheel.
The first horizontal line represents a
distance of about 30 cm beyond the
edge of vehicle's rear bumper. The
upper horizontal lines represent
distances of about 1 and 2 m beyond
the edge of the vehicle's rear bumper.
This view is available in AUTO Mode
or in the view selection menu.
Rear zoom view / Zoom view
The camera records the vehicle's
surroundings during the manoeuvre in order to reconstruct a view fromabove the rear of the vehicle in its
near surroundings, allowing the
vehicle to be manoeuvred around
obstacles nearby. This view is
available with AUTO Mode or in the
view selection menu.

Driving and operating199The panoramic view system may not
operate properly when:
● The surrounding is dark.
● The sun or the beam of headlights is shining directly into
the camera lenses.
● During nighttime driving.
● Weather limits visibility, such as fog, rain, or snow.
● The camera lenses are blocked by snow, ice, slush, mud, dirt.
● The vehicle is towing a trailer.
● The vehicle had an accident.
● There are extreme temperature changes.
Rear view camera Depending on version, camera is
mounted above the license plate in
the tailgate / left rear door.9 Warning
The rear view camera does not
replace driver vision. Note that
objects that are outside the
camera's field of view and the
parking assist sensors, e.g. below
the bumper or underneath the
vehicle, are not displayed.
Do not reverse or park the vehicle
using only the rear view camera.
Always check the surrounding of
the vehicle before driving.
The view of the camera is displayed
in the Info Display 3 119 or in the
interior mirror 3 40.
The area displayed by the camera is
limited. The distance of the image that
appears on the display differs from
the actual distance.
Switching on Rear view camera is automatically
activated when reverse gear is
engaged.
Switching off
The camera is switched off when a
forward gear is engaged.
