Troubleshooting
The parking system behaves dierently than
expected
There can be several causes:
●
The system requirements are not met.
●
The sensors or the camera are dirty or have
ice on them ›››page333.
●
The camera lens is not clean and the camera
image is not clear ›››page333.
●
Some noise sources, such as a jackhammer
or a cobblestone surface can interfere with the
ultrasound signal.
●
The vehicle has some type of damage in the
sensor or camera area, e.g. due to a parking
impact.
●
The sensor detection zone or eld of view of
the camera are blocked by an accessory, e.g. a
bike rack.
●
Changes have been made to the paintwork
or structural modications in the sensor or
camera area, e.g. at the front of the vehicle or
to the running gear.
Also take into account the messages displayed
on the infotainment system display.
Sensor or camera without visibility, or the
parking system has been switched o
If a sensor fails, that sensor zone is perma-
nently switched o. The aected sensor zone
may be displayed on the infotainment system
with a
symbol and a greyed-out graphic
segment. If necessary, the parking system
switches o the aected zone.
If the park assist is not working properly, a
continuous audible signal sounds for a few
seconds when it is switched on. If applicable,
a message to this eect is displayed on the
instrument cluster display
●
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 problem persists, consult a specialised
workshop.
