106 Driving and operating
Note
Attached parts in the detection area
cause system malfunction.
Activation
When reverse gear is engaged, the
system switches itself on
automatically. Readiness for
operation is indicated by a brief
acoustic alarm.
An obstacle is indicated by buzzers.
The interval between the buzzers
becomes shorter as the vehicle gets
closer to the obstacle. When the
distance is less than 30 cm, the
buzzer is continuous.
9 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.
Deactivation
It is possible to permanently or
temporarily deactivate the system.
Temporary deactivation
Temporarily deactivate the system by
pressing the E button on the
instrument panel with the ignition on
and reverse gear engaged. When
reverse gear is selected no acoustic
signal will sound, indicating
deactivation.
The function is reactivated by
pressing button E again or the next
time the ignition is switched on.
Permanent deactivation
Permanently deactivate the system
by pressing and holding the E button
on the instrument panel for approx.
3 seconds with the ignition on and
reverse gear engaged. The system is
deactivated and will not operate.
When reverse gear is selected no
acoustic signal will sound, indicating
deactivation.
The function is reactivated by
pressing and holding button E for
approx. 3 seconds.
Fault
If the system detects an operating
fault, a continuous acoustic alarm will
sound for approx. 5 seconds when
selecting reverse gear. Consult a
workshop to have the cause of the
fault remedied.
