Using the parking aid
The sensors are activated automatically when you engage the reverse gear with the
ignition on or the engine running. An activation signal is emitted (two short tones).
As soon as there is an obstacle within the detection range, a repeated signal tone is
emitted.
As you approach, the tone sequence changes, depending on the zone in which the
obstacle is, thereby indicating the distance.
Be very careful the first time you use the system, until you are familiar with the various
sequences of beeps.
!
WARNING!
Stop the vehicle immediately and investigate the situation (getting out if
necessary), if the following happens while you are manoeuvring:
the device first indicates an obstacle and the tone sequence speeds up
normally (e.g. from slow to medium) when manoeuvring. the signal tone
suddenly slows down, or no obstacle is indicated at all.
This means that the original obstacle is in the blind spot of the sensors
(construction-related characteristic), and there is still a potential for
collision.
