Park Assist limitations*
The driver should be aware of the following limitations for Park Assist:
Warning
- The Park Assist Cameras' ability to clearly reproduce the surroundings in all zones around the vehicle may be affected by the conditions during use.
- Pay particular attention to people and animals near the vehicle.
- Bear in mind that the front end of the vehicle may swing out towards oncoming traffic during the parking maneuver.
- Objects/obstacles may be closer to the vehicle than they appear on the screen.
Warning
Be extra cautious when reversing if this symbol is shown when a trailer, bike carrier or similar is attached and electrically connected to the vehicle.
An unlit symbol indicates that the rear parking assist sensors are deactivated and will not warn of any obstacles.
Important
Objects such as chains, thin and glossy poles or low obstacles may end up in the "signal shadow" and then go temporarily undetected by the sensors – the pulsating tone may then unexpectedly stop instead of becoming a constant tone as expected.
The sensors cannot detect high objects, such as protruding ramps.
- In such situations, pay extra attention and maneuver/drive the vehicle very slowly or stop the current parking maneuver – there may be a high risk of damage to the vehicle or other objects since information from the sensors is not always reliable in such situations.
Important
In some circumstances, the Park Assist System may produce false warnings due to external sound sources with the same ultrasonic frequencies as those the system works with.
Examples of such sources are horns, wet tires on asphalt, pneumatic brakes, exhaust noise from motorcycles, etc.
