Driving systems
When travelling in Canada in a vehicle not
registered in Canada, you must switch off
the radar sensor system* (
୴ page 272).
Canadian law does not permit the use of
the radar sensor system* (
୴ page 272) for
vehicles from outside of Canada. When you
switch off the radar sensor system*, the
following functions are deactivated:
ț BAS Plus* (୴ page 67)
ț DISTRONIC Plus* (୴ page 411)
ț Park Assist
ț PRE-SAFE
®
Brake* (୴ page 73)
It visually and audibly indicates the relative
distance between the vehicle and an
obstacle.
Park Assist is automatically activated
when the engine is running and the trans-
mission is in position D, R or N.
The Park Assist system deactivates at
speeds over approximately 11 mph
(18 km/h). At lower speeds the Parktronic
system turns on again.
Park Assist is also switched off when you
set the automatic transmission to P or
switch off the engine.
While the transmission is in position N,
Park Assist is switched off if you secure the
vehicle in place with the electronic parking
brake.
The Park Assist system monitors the sur-
roundings of your vehicle with four sensors
in the front bumper and two sensors in the
rear bumper.
Range of the sensors
The sensors of the Park Assist system are
integrated in the front and rear bumpers.
Make sure that the bumpers are clear of
dirt, ice and slush in the area of the sen-
sors, as otherwise, Park Assist may not
function properly, see “Cleaning the Park
Assist* system sensors” (
୴ page 559).
