Help with parking and manoeuvring
●
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 re-
placement for driver awareness.
●
The manoeuvre assist system is subject to
certain 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!
●
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

Problems and solutions
Camera with no visibility, fault message,
the system disconnects
●
Clean the camera or remove possible ad-
hesives or accessories from it
›››
page 317 .
●
Check for visible damage.
The system behaves differently than ex-
pected
There can be several causes:
●
The camera is dirty
›››
page 317 . 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
›››
page 265.
●
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 system.
●
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.) pre-
cisely, so using them could cause serious
accidents and injury.
●
The camera lenses augment and distort
the visual field and the objects on the
screen are seen differently and imprecisely.
