Rear cross traffic alert
Caution
The driver must monitor the
surroundings before and during
the whole manoeuvre. Drive
slowly and carefully in reverse
gear in case of reduced or no
visibility.
It is possible that warnings are not
given, are given too late or seem
unjustified. Be prepared to react at
any time to avoid an accident.
Notice
If repainting the rear bumper,
consult a qualified workshop since
certain types of paint could interfere
with the operation of the radar units.
Additional to the side blind spot alert
3 172, rear cross traffic alert warns of
cross traffic from left or right side
when driving rearwards at a speed up
to 6 mph. It warns of approaching
objects such as vehicles, trucks,
pedestrians, cyclists and
motorcycles.
