In the event of a fault or if the system does not work temporarily, e.g. because of high external noise level or other interference factors, illuminates in the instrument cluster. A message is displayed in the Driver Information Centre and a warning chime sounds.
Warning
Under certain circumstances, various reflective surfaces on objects or clothing as well as external noise sources may cause the system to fail to detect obstacles.
Special attention must be paid to low obstacles which can damage the lower part of the bumper.
Caution
Performance of the system can be reduced when sensors are covered, e.g. by ice or snow.
Performance of the parking assist system can be reduced due to heavy loading.
Special conditions apply if there are taller vehicles in the vicinity (e.g. off-road vehicles, mini vans, vans). Object identification and correct distance indication in the upper part of these vehicles cannot be guaranteed.
Objects with a very small reflection cross-section, e.g. objects of narrow size or soft materials, may not be detected by the system.
Parking assist systems do not detect objects outside the detection range.
