%
Do not use the 360° Camera under such cir‐
cumstances. You could otherwise injure oth‐
ers or collide with objects when parking the
vehicle.
For technical reasons, the standard height of the
vehicle may be altered if the vehicle is carrying a
heavy load and can result in inaccuracies in the
guide lines and in the display of the generated
images.
The field of vision and other functions of the
camera system may be restricted due to addi‐
tional attachments on the vehicle (e.g. licence
plate bracket, bicycle rack).
%
The contrast of the display may be impaired
by abrupt direct sunlight or by other light
sources, e.g. when driving out of a garage. In
this case, pay particular attention.
%
Have the display repaired or replaced if, for
example, pixel errors considerably restrict its
use.
See the notes on cleaning the 360° Camera
(/ page 465).
Active Parking Assist
Function of Active Parking Assist
Active Parking Assist is an electronic parking
assistance system which uses ultrasound and is
automatically activated during forward travel.
The system is operational at speeds below
approximately 35 km/h.
If all requirements are met, the Ç display
appears in the multifunction display. The system
then independently locates and measures paral‐
lel and perpendicular parking spaces on both
sides of the vehicle.
When Active Parking Assist detects parking
spaces, the È display appears in the multi‐
function display. The arrows show on which side
of the road detected parking spaces are located.
They are then shown in the media display. The
parking space and, if necessary, the parking
direction can be selected as desired. Active
Parking Assist calculates a suitable vehicle path,
switches on the turn signal indicator and assists
you in parking and exiting the parking space.
