Prerequisites for parking
●
The traction control system (ASR) must be
turned on
.
●
Speed when passing next to the parking
space (parallel parking): do not exceed ap-
prox.
40 km/h (25 mph)
.
●
Speed when passing next to the parking
space (angle parking): do not exceed approx.
20 km/h (12 mph)
.
●
Keep a distance between
0.5 and 2.0 me-
tres
when driving past the parking space.
●
Space length (parallel parking):
vehicle
length + 0.8 meters
.
●
Space width (angle parking):
vehicle width
+ 0.8 meters
.
●
Do not exceed approximately
7 km/h
(4 mph)
when parking.
Requirements for leaving the parking
space (only for parallel parking)
●
The traction control system (ASR) must be
turned on
.
●
Space length:
length of the vehicle + 0.5
metres
.
●
Do not exceed approximately
7 km/h
(4 mph)
when exiting the parking space.
Prematurely stopping or automatically in-
terrupting the manoeuvres for parking or
exiting a parking space
Park Assist interrupts the manoeuvres for
parking or exiting a parking space in any of
the following cases:
●
Press the
button.
●
The speed exceeds approximately 7 km/h
(4 mph).
●
The driver takes control of the steering
wheel.
●
The parking manoeuvre does not end within
6 minutes from the activation of automatic
steering.
●
There is a fault in the system (the system is
temporarily unavailable).
●
The ASR is switched off or its performance
is limited by the
Offroad
or
Snow
modes.
●
ASR or ESC intervene with regulation.
●
The driver door is opened.
To restart the manoeuvre it is necessary that
none of these things occur and that the
button is pressed again.
Special characteristics
The Park Assist system is subject to certain
limitations inherent to the system. For exam-
ple, it is therefore not possible to enter or exit
a parking space on sharp bends.
While entering or exiting a parking space, a
brief signal sounds to prompt the driver to
change between forward and reverse gears
(depending on the case). In successive ma-
noeuvres, the assistant tells the driver to
change gears, at the latest, when the contin-
uous audible signal is given (object present at
a distance of ≤30 cm) by Park Pilot.
When the Park Assist system turns the steer-
ing wheel with the vehicle stationary, the in-
strument panel also displays the symbol
.
Keep the brake pedal depressed while the
symbol remains on the dash panel display to
284
Help with parking and manoeuvring
turn the wheels with the vehicle stopped. This
way, the system will require fewer manoeu-
vres to complete the parking action.
Trailer mode
The Park Assist system cannot be switched
on if the factory-fitted towing bracket
›››
is electrically connected to a
trailer.
After changing a wheel
If, after changing a wheel, the vehicle stops
entering and exiting parking spaces correct-
ly, the circumference of the new wheel may
be different and the system may need to
adapt to it. The adaptation is automatic and
takes place during driving. Making turns slow-
ly and in both directions (20 km/h [12 mph])
for a few minutes may contribute to this
adaptation process
.

Automatic operation of the brakes
by the parking assist system
Park Assist helps the driver by automatically
braking in certain situations.
The driver is always responsible for braking in
time
›››
.
Automatic braking intervention to avoid
exceeding the speed limit
To avoid exceeding the allowed speed of ap-
prox. 7 km/h (4 mph) when entering or leaving
a parking space, the brakes may activate au-
tomatically. After automatically activating
the brakes, the manoeuvres to enter or exit a
parking space may continue.
The brakes are only automatically activated
once for each attempt to enter or exit a park-
ing space. If the speed of approximately
7 km/h (4 mph) is exceeded again, the corre-
sponding operation is halted.
Automatic braking to reduce damages
Depending on certain conditions, the Park
Assist system can automatically brake the
vehicle when faced with an obstacle, briefly
actioning and holding down the brake ped-
al
›››
. Following this the driver must press
the brake pedal.
Automatic braking intervention to reduce
damage leads to the parking manoeuvre fin-
ishing.
WARNING
The automatic braking intervention by Park
Assist should never tempt you to take any
risk that may compromise safety. The sys-
tem is not a replacement for driver aware-
ness.
●
The Park Assist system is subject to cer-
tain limitations inherent to the system. In
certain situations, the automatic braking
intervention may only work in a limited way
or not work at all.
●
Always be ready to use the brakes your-
self!
●
The automatic braking intervention will
end after approximately 1.5 seconds. After-
wards, brake the vehicle yourself.
Parking aid parking and ma-
noeuvring (ParkPilot)
Introduction
These assist systems help you when parking
and manoeuvring:
–
Plus Parking Aid
›››
. It is an as-
sist system that provides a visual and audio
warning of obstacles detected in
front
and
behind
the vehicle .
–
Rear Parking Aid
. This is an
assistant that gives a visual and audio
warning of obstacles detected
behind
the
vehicle
.
WARNING
●
Always pay attention, by looking directly,
to traffic and the area around the vehicle.
»
289
Driving
Assistance systems are not a replacement
for driver awareness. Responsibility always
lies with the driver.
●
The sensors have blind spots in which ob-
stacles and people are not detected. Pay
special attention to children and animals.
●
Always keep visual control of the sur-
roundings: use the mirrors for additional
help.
CAUTION
Parking distance warning system functions
can be affected by different factors that
can cause damage:
●
Under certain circumstances, the system
does not detect or display certain objects:
–
Chains, trailer draw bars, bars, fences,
posts and thin trees.
–
Objects that are located above the
sensors, such as protrusions in a wall.
–
Objects with certain surfaces or struc-
tures, such as wire mesh fences or pow-
der snow.
●
Certain surfaces of objects and gar-
ments do not reflect the ultrasound sen-
sors' signals. The system cannot detect
these objects or people wearing such
clothes correctly.
●
Sensor signals may be affected by exter-
nal sound sources. This may prevent them
from detecting people or objects.
●
If the system warns you of the proximity
of a low obstacle, please note that after
being detected by the system, the obstacle
in question may disappear from the meas-
urement sensors as the vehicle moves clos-
er, and the system will no longer warn of its
presence. In certain circumstances, ob-
jects such as high kerbs that could damage
the underside of the vehicle are not detec-
ted.
●
If the parking distance warning system is
ignored, the vehicle could suffer considera-
ble damage.
●
Damage to the radiator grille, bumper,
wheel arch and vehicle underbody can
modify the orientation of the sensors. This
can affect the parking aid function. Have
the function checked by a specialised
workshop.
●
A number plate or number plate holder
with dimensions that exceed the space for
the number plate, or a cured or deformed
number plate can cause false detections or
a loss of visibility for the sensors.
Note
●
The display on the Infotainment system
screen shows a slight time delay.
●
In certain situations, the system can give
a warning even though there is no obstacle
in the detected area:
–
Rough or cobbled surfaces or surfaces
with long grass.
–
External ultrasound sources, such as
other vehicles equipped with ultra-
sound systems.
–
Heavy rain or snow, hail or dense ex-
haust gases.
–
If the number plate is not properly se-
cured to the surface of the bumper.
–
Gradient changes.
●
In order to guarantee good operation,
keep the sensors clean, free of snow and
ice, and do not cover them with stickers or
other objects.
●
If you use high-pressure or vapour equip-
ment for cleaning, do not apply it directly,
unless you do so very briefly, and always
keep a distance of more than 10 cm away.
●
Fitting certain accessories to the front of
the vehicle, such as a plate holder with ad-
vertising, may interfere with the operation
of the Park Assist.
●
We recommend that you practice park-
ing in an area without traffic.
●
The volume and tone of the signals and
indications can be changed
.
●
Please observe information on towing a
trailer

Parking System Plus
Description
Fig. 206
Parking aid view on the Infotainment
system display.
Parking aid plus
assists the driver by giving
visual and audio warnings about obstacles
detected in front of and behind the vehicle.
The bumpers are fitted with sensors. When an
obstacle is detected, it is indicated by audible
signals and in the Infotainment system
›››
When moving close to an obstacle, it is possi-
ble to know if the obstacle is in front of the ve-
hicle or behind it by choosing different
sounds.
The approximate measurement range of the
sensors is:
1.20 m
A
1.60 m
0.90 m
As you approach the obstacle, the frequency
of the audible signals will increase. The signal
will sound continuously at around 0.30 m:
Stop!
If the separation is maintained, the warning
volume is reduced after about 4 seconds.
In order to view the entire periphery of the ve-
hicle, the vehicle must be moved a few me-
tres forwards or backwards. Thus, the missing
areas are screened and obstacles at the
sides of the vehicle are displayed
.
Special features of ParkPilot with Area

Driving
Manoeuvre braking function
The emergency braking function is used to
minimise damage in the event of a collision.
Depending on the equipment, if the Parking
Aid is active, the braking while manoeuvring
function activates emergency braking when it
detects an obstacle in the vehicle’s path that
could cause a collision, driving forwards or in
reverse.
The function will not brake if the Parking Aid is
activated automatically. For the system to
operate, manoeuvring speed must be be-
tween 2.5 and 10 km/h (between 1.5 and 6
mph) for the front area and between 1.5 and
10 km/h (between 1 and 6 mph) for the rear.
Following an intervention, the braking while
manoeuvring function will be inactive in the
same direction of travel for 5 metres. Once
the gear is changed, or the selector lever’s
position is changed, the function will be ac-
tive again. The Parking Aid’s limitations apply.
The manoeuvre brake function (RBF) can be

Rear parking aid
Description
The
rear parking aid
is an optical and audi-
ble assistant that warns of obstacles located
behind
the vehicle.
There are sensors integrated in the rear
bumper. When they detect an obstacle, you
are alerted by audible and visible warnings
on the Infotainment system.
If the Top View Camera is installed, the rear
parking aid will issue an audible warning
about objects near the rear of the vehicle,
and the Top View Camera image will be
available on the infotainment screen, giving a
real image of the objects around the car.
Make particularly sure that the sensors are
not covered by adhesives, residues, dirt and
the like, as this could affect the system's op-
eration. Cleaning instructions
.
The approximate measurement range of the
rear sensors is:
●
Side area: 0.60 m
●
Central area: 1.60 m
As you approach the obstacle, the frequency
of the audible signals will increase. The signal
will sound continuously at around 0.30 m:
Stop!
›››
If the separation is maintained, the warning
volume is reduced after about 4 seconds.

Driving
Whenever the obstacle is located in the vehi-
cle’s direction of travel, the corresponding
audible warning will sound.
As the vehicle approaches an obstacle, the
segments are displayed closer to the vehicle.
When the penultimate segment is displayed,
this means that the vehicle has reached the
collision zone. In the collision zone, the obsta-
cles are represented in red (including those
out of the path). Do not continue to reverse

If equipped with the Top View Camera
Segments are not displayed when the vehicle
is equipped with a Top View Camera.
The Parking Aid system will issue an audible
warning for objects that are near the rear of
the vehicle, and the Top View Camera image
will be available on the screen, giving a real
image of the objects around the car.
Trailer Assist
Introduction
Trailer assist helps the driver to reverse and
manoeuvre with a trailer.
By moving the rotary knob of the exterior mir-
rors, the trailer assist directs the trailer that is
hitched. The driver has to accelerate, change
gears and brake!
System limitations
Under certain circumstances, the camera
does not detect objects such as trailer draw
bars, bars, fences, posts or thin trees, or an
open (or opening) rear lid, which could dam-
age the vehicle.
In order to guarantee good system operation,
keep the camera clean, free of snow or ice,
and do not cover it with adhesives or other
objects. Do not allow the draw bar to be cov-
ered by external influences.
Use the trailer manoeuvre assistant only
when the rear lid is closed correctly.
CAUTION
The trailer maneuver assistant does not
take the vehicle’s surrounding as a refer-
ence. No obstacle detection takes place.
The driver alone has to assess whether it is
possible to manoeuvre safely with the tow
vehicle and trailer set.
●
Always observe the movement of the
trailer and, if necessary, actively interrupt
the manoeuvre to avoid damage. Even if
the trailer manoeuvring assistant is operat-
ed correctly, on rare occasions the trailer
may move in a different way to the setting.
●
Do not rely solely on the indications on
the instrument cluster display.
Note
The trailer manoeuvre assistant automati-
cally switches off approx. 10 minutes after
being activated. The assistant is also deac-
tivated if the driver does not perform any
action over the course of approx. 3 mi-
nutes.
Requirements
The following requirements must be met for
the trailer manoeuvre assistant to work:
●
The engine is running.
●
The ESC must be connected.
●
The driver's door and the rear lid are
closed.
●
The exterior mirrors are not folded.
●
There is a non-articulated one or two axle
trailer hitched and electrically connected.
●
Both the tow vehicle and trailer are stop-
ped.
●
The maximum bending angle has not been
exceeded.
●
The length of the trailer’s drawbar has been
determined.
296
Help with parking and manoeuvring
Determine the length of the trailer's draw-
bar
In order for the trailer manoeuvre assistant to
determine the length of the trailer’s drawbar,
drive the vehicle-trailer set through some
turning manoeuvres or curves. The more pre-
cisely the length of the drawbar is deter-
mined, the wider the angles that will be avail-
able when manoeuvring. The assistant subdi-
vides the maximum available end stops of the
angle indicator into four levels: approx. 30°,
45°, 60° and 75°.
Note
For technical reasons, the trailer manoeu-
vre assistant cannot always correctly de-
tect trailers with LED technology taillights.

The manoeuvre ends when a message is
displayed on the instrument cluster display
and, in some cases, an audio signal sounds.
Automatic brake operation
The trailer manoeuvre assistant helps the
driver by automatically operating the brakes
in certain situations.
The driver is responsible for braking in
time
The brakes may be applied automatically
and the function deactivated in the following
situations:
●
A certain speed is exceeded.
●
The steering wheel is grabbed. The vehicle
brakes automatically until it stops.
»

Driving
●
If the key
is pressed during the manoeu-
vre or the driver’s door opens.
WARNING
The quickly turning steering wheel can
cause serious injuries.
●
Do not hold the steering wheel during the
manoeuvre until the system requests it.
●
Exception: If a dangerous situation oc-
curs, intervene and take over the steering.
WARNING
Never allow the automatic operation of
brakes to lead you to take any risk that
compromises safety. The system is not a
replacement for driver awareness.
●
The manoeuvre assist system is subject
to certain limitations inherent to the sys-
tem. In certain situations, the automatic
braking intervention may only work in a
limited way or not work at all.
●
Always be ready to use the brakes your-
self!
●
Automatic brake operation ends after 1.5
seconds approx. if the vehicle is stopped.
After this, brake the vehicle yourself.
Note
The exterior mirrors cannot be adjusted
while the assistant is active. The saved set-
ting for the passenger’s mirror can be acti-
vated

Troubleshooting
Camera with no visibility, fault message,
the system disconnects
●
Clean the camera or remove possible ad-
hesives or accessories from it
.
●
Check for visible damage.
The system behaves differently than ex-
pected
There can be several causes:
●
The camera is dirty
. In addi-
tion to dirt and snow, camera visibility can be
reduced by detergent residue or any type of
coating.
●
The system requirements must be met
›››
.
●
The camera is covered with water.
●
The vehicle has some type of damage in
the camera area, e.g. due to a parking im-
pact.
●
The field of view of the camera is blocked
by an accessory, e.g. a bicycle carrier sys-
tem.
●
Changes have been made to the paint in
the camera area and structural modifications
have been made, e.g. to the front part of the
vehicle and the running gear.
Solution for all cases
●
Temporarily disconnect the system.
●
Check if one of the causes indicated above
has occurred.
●
Once the source of the problem has been
eliminated, the system may be reconnected.
●
If the system still behaves unpredictably,
have it checked by a specialised workshop.
Peripheral view system (Top
View Camera)
Introduction
Using 4 cameras, the system generates a
representation that is shown on the infotain-
ment system display. The cameras are loca-
ted on the radiator grille, the exterior mirrors
and the rear lid.
The functions and representations of the Area
View system may vary depending on whether
or not the vehicle has ParkPilot.
WARNING
The image from the cameras does not
make it possible to calculate the distance
to the obstacles (people, vehicles, etc.)
precisely, so using them could cause seri-
ous accidents and injury.
●
The camera lenses augment and distort
the visual field and the objects on the
298
Help with parking and manoeuvring
screen are seen differently and imprecise-
ly.
●
Certain objects may not be shown or may
not be shown very clearly, for example,
posts or thin rails, due to the screen resolu-
tion or if light conditions are insufficient.
●
The cameras have blind spots in which
obstacles and people are not registered.
WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into
the Top View Camera system cannot over-
come the limits imposed by the laws of
physics and it only works within the limits of
the system. The greater convenience provi-
ded by the Area View system should never
tempt you to take any risk that may com-
promise safety. If used negligently or invol-
untarily, it may cause serious accidents
and injuries. The system is not a replace-
ment for driver awareness.
●
Adapt your speed and driving style to suit
visibility, weather, road and traffic condi-
tions.
●
Do not be distracted from the traffic by
looking at the screen.
●
Monitor the area around the vehicle at all
times, since the cameras do not capture
small children, animals and certain objects
in all situations.
●
The system will probably be unable to
represent all areas clearly.
CAUTION
●
The camera images are only two-dimen-
sional. Due to a lack of spatial depth, ob-
jects that jut out or holes on the road, for
example, are more difficult to detect or
may not be seen at all.
●
In certain circumstances, the camera
does not capture objects such as beams,
fences, posts or thin trees, which could
damage the vehicle.
●
The system displays the auxiliary lines
and boxes regardless of the vehicle's envi-
ronment, no objects are detected. The driv-
er is responsible for determining that the
vehicle will fit in the parking space.
