Graphic display
You can estimate the distance to an obstacle by referring to the segments in front of and behind the vehicle or the segments surrounding the vehicle (vehicles with park assist with 360° display) Fig. 2. The red lines* indicate the anticipated path of the vehicle, depending on the steering wheel angle. A white segment indicates an obstacle that has been detected beyond the path of travel. Red segments represent objects detected within the path of travel. 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. Obstacles within the danger (collision) zone are shown in red, even if they are beyond the path of travel. Stop moving immediately WARNING!, Caution!!
