Warning
The system cannot serve as a substitute for
the driver’s personal judgment in assessing
the traffic situation. Based on the limits of
the system, it cannot independently react to
all traffic situations. There is a risk of acci-
dent, injury, and property damage. Adjust
driving style to traffic conditions. Watch the
surrounding traffic situation closely, be ready
to take over steering and braking at any time,
and actively intervene where appropriate.
Parking assistance systems

situation, no further emergency braking will
occur.
When obstacles are detected in close range in
front of the vehicle, the acceleration will be re-
duced. If necessary, this permits timely manual
braking.
The function is automatically reactivated when
Park Distance Control is switched on again.
When obstacles are detected behind the vehi-
cle, the system will brake.
Settings
Follow the information in the "Parking assis-
tance systems" chapter.
It is possible to set which areas on the vehicle
will be protected by the system.

Depending on the national-market version, the
system is automatically turned on again at the

▷
▷
▷
▷
Parking space search.
Turning on.
Canceling reduced drive power
The reduction of the drive power is canceled in
the following situations:
Parking.
Driving out of parking spaces.
▷
▷
The accelerator pedal is released.
The parking manoeuver while parking is per-
formed automatically.
After the accelerator pedal has been de-
pressed completely twice.
When driving out of parallel parking spaces,
the vehicle maneuvers automatically until it
reaches a position where it can be driven out
of the parking space without further steering
movements.
▷
A specific distance has been traveled.
If the reduction in drive power is canceled by
covering a certain distance, the drive power is
released gradually.
When driving out of perpendicular parking
spaces, the vehicle is maneuvered out of the
parking space to enable continued driving in
the desired direction.

General information
A recurring maneuver is driven manually and
thereby recorded.
When the vehicle reaches the activation area
for the distance covered by the stored maneu-
ver, the maneuver can be activated on the con-
trol display or in the instrument cluster.
The detection range for a maneuver is divided
into the following areas:
After the activation, the system takes control
of the vehicle and carries out the maneuver
automatically.
▷
Proximity range, arrow 1: the system will
begin with the localization in the back-
ground within a range of approx. 26 ft/8 m
around the distance covered of a stored
maneuver.
In addition, the parking maneuver can be per-
formed using Remote Control Parking on a
smartphone.
Follow the information in the "Parking assis-
