risks from behind
*
If you become distracted and do not notice your vehicle starting to veer out of the lane whileanother vehicle is approaching from behind or isin your vehicle's blind spot, this sub-function canhelp provide assistance.
The function provides assistance by steering your vehi- cle back into your own lane.
Another vehicle in blind spot zone
Own vehicle
If your vehicle is beginning to veer out of your lane while another vehicle is in your blind spot oranother vehicle is rapidly approaching in the next lane, this function can help the driver steer the vehicle back into its own lane. Even if the driver intentionally changes lanes using a turn signal without noticing another vehi- cle approaching, the function can provide assis-tance. The function is active at speeds between 60-140 km/h (37-87 mph) on roads with clearlyvisible traffic lane markings/lines. After the system has automatically intervened, this text message will appear in the instrumentpanel:
•
Collision avoidance assistance –Automatic intervention
WARNING
• The "Steering assistance at risk of rear- end collision" subfunction is supplemen-tary driver support intended to improvedriving safety – it cannot handle all situa-tions in all traffic, weather and road condi-tions.
• Pilot Assist is only activated if there is ahigh risk of collision – you must thereforenever wait for the function to intervene.
• The function is not a substitute for thedriver's attention and judgment. The driveris always responsible for ensuring thevehicle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.

Park Assist*
The Park Assist function can help the driver
when maneuvering in tight spaces by indicating distances to obstacles using audible signals andgraphics in the center display.
Display view showing obstacle zones and sensor sec- tors.
The center display shows an overview of the vehi- cle in relation to objects that have been detected. The marked sector indicates where the obstacle is located. The closer the vehicle symbol is to amarked sector, the closer the detected obstacleis to your vehicle. The audible signals will also speed up the closer the obstacle is to the vehicle. The volume of theaudio system will be automatically lowered. Audible signals for obstacles in front and to the sides of the vehicle are active when the vehicle is moving but will cease after the vehicle has beenstationary for approx. 2 seconds. Audible signalsfor obstacles behind the vehicle will remain activeeven when the vehicle is stationary. If a detected obstacle is within 30 cm (1 ft) from the front or rear of the vehicle, the tone willbecome constant and the active sensor's fieldclosest to the vehicle symbol will be filled in. The volume of the Park Assist audible signals can be adjusted while the signal is being given using the
>II knob or in the center display's Top
view under
Settings.
NOTE
• Acoustic warnings are only given for objects directly in front of the vehicle'spath.
WARNING
•The Parking Assist function is supple- mentary driver support intended to facili-tate driving and help make it safer – itcannot handle all situations in all traffic,weather and road conditions.
• The parking sensors have dead/blindspots where objects cannot be detected.
• Pay particular attention to people andanimals near the vehicle.
• Parking Assist is not a substitute for thedriver's attention and judgment. The driveris always responsible for ensuring thevehicle is driven in a safe manner, at theappropriate speed, with an appropriatedistance to other vehicles, and in accord-ance with current traffic rules and regula-tions.

CAUTION
Objects such as chains, thin and glossy poles or low obstacles may end up in the "signalshadow" and then go temporarily undetectedby the sensors – the pulsating tone may thenunexpectedly stop instead of becoming aconstant tone as expected. The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as protruding ramps.
• In such situations, pay extra attention andmaneuver/drive the vehicle very slowly orstop the current parking maneuver –there may be a high risk of damage tothe vehicle or other objects since infor-mation from the sensors is not alwaysreliable in such situations.
CAUTION
In some circumstances, the Park Assist Sys- tem may produce false warnings due to exter-nal sound sources with the same ultrasonicfrequencies as those the system works with. Examples of such sources are horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaust noisefrom motorcycles, etc.
NOTE
When a trailer hitch is configured with the vehicle electrical system, the trailer hitch pro-trusion is included when the function meas-ures the distance to objects behind the vehi-cle.

Starting the Park Assist Camera
The Park Assist Camera starts automatically when reverse gear is engaged or can be startedmanually using one of the center display's func-tion buttons.
Camera view when backing upWhen reverse gear is engaged, the screen shows the rear view 123
.
Camera view when manually starting
the camera
Start the Park Assist Camera using this button in the centerdisplay's Function view. The screen will first show the most recently used cameraview. However, each time the
engine is started, the previous side view will bereplaced by the 360° view and a previously dis-played zoomed-in rear view will be replaced bythe regular rear view.
Automatically deactivating the cameraFront view switches off when the vehicle's speed reaches 25 km/h (16 mph) to help avoid dis-tracting the driver. It will be automatically reactiva-ted if the vehicle's speed falls below 22 km/h(14 mph) within 1 minute as long as the vehicle'sspeed has not exceeded 50 km/h (31 mph).

The driver should be aware of the following limi- tations for the Park Assist Camera:
WARNING
Be extra cautious when reversing if this symbol isshown when a trailer, bikecarrier or similar is attachedand electrically connectedto the vehicle. The symbol indicates that
the rear parking assist sensors are deacti-
vated and will not warn of any obstacles.

Blind sectors
There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields of vision.
With 360° view selected, objects/obstacles may not be detected if they are located in the "joints"where the edges of the individual camera viewsmeet.
WARNING
Even if it seems as though only a fairly small section of the screen image is obstructed, thismay mean that a relatively large sector is hid-den and obstacles there may not be detecteduntil they are very near the vehicle.
Defective cameraIf a camera sector is dark and contains this symbol, this indi-cates that the camera is notfunctioning properly. See the following illustration for an example.
The vehicle's left-side camera is malfunctioning.
Dark camera sector
A dark camera sector may also be displayed in the following situations, but without the defective
camera symbol:
• a door is open
• the tailgate is open
• a rearview mirror is folded in
Lighting conditionsThe camera image is automatically adjusted according to the current lighting conditions. This means that the brightness and quality of theimage may vary slightly. Poor lighting conditionsmay result in reduced image quality.
