Segments in the graphic display
You can estimate the distance to an obstacle by referring to
the red segments at the front and rear of the vehicle
Fig. 2.
The closer the vehicle gets to the obstacle the closer the segments
move towards the vehicle in the graphic. At the latest when
the penultimate segment is highlighted the vehicle has reached
the danger (collision) zone. Stop moving immediately
WARNING!!
- The parking aid cannot replace the full concentration of the driver. The driver is always responsible for safety during parking and other manoeuvres.
- The sensors have blind spots in which obstacles are not registered. It is particularly important to ensure that there are no small children or animals near the vehicle, as the sensors may not always be able to detect them.
- Always keep a close watch on the area around the vehicle and make full use of the rear-view mirrors.
Caution!
Please note that low obstacles detected by the system may no longer
be registered by the sensors as the car moves closer, so the system
will not give any further warning. Certain kinds of obstacles (such
as wire fences, chains, thin painted posts or trailer draw bars,
etc.) may not always be detected by the system, so take care not
to damage the vehicle in such cases.
