Parking next to obstacles
When there is an obstacle (such as a wall) next to the park ing spot,
choose a spot with more space on th e sides. Position the long side of
the blue area so that there is sufficient space from the curb. The area
must not be on the curb. You will also need to start turning the
steering wheel much earlier. There should be a sufficient amount of
space between the curb and the blue curve, and the blue curve
=> fig . 154 must not touch the curb.
& WARNING
• The rear view camera does not show the entire area behind the
vehicle =>
page 153, fig. 149. Watch out especially for small chil-
dren and animals. The rear view camera cannot always detect
them, posing risk of an accident!
• Please note that objects not touching the ground can appear to
be further away than they really are (for example, the bumper of
a parked vehicle, a trailer hitch, or the rear of a truck). In this case,
you should not use the help lines to help with parking, which
poses danger of an accident! _,,
