Error messages
If a an error or fault message appears on the
instrument panel in Parking assist, there is a
fault.
If the fault doesn't disappear before discon-
necting the ignition, it will not be indicated
next time the parking aid is connected.
If there is a fault in a sensor, the symbol is
displayed on the Easy Connect display.
We recommend taking the vehicle to a spe-
cialised workshop to have the fault repaired.

In vehicles equipped with a towing bracket
device from the factory, when the trailer is
