•
Grey segments
: the obstacle is more than
approx. 30 cm away from the path or in the
direction opposite to travel. They are also dis-
played when the electronic parking brake is ac-
tivated.
•
Yellow segments
: the obstacles lie on the
vehicle’s path and are at a distance of less than
approx. 30 cm away.
•
Red segments
: obstacles are less than ap-
prox. 30 cm away.
A guiding track will indicate the anticipated for-
ward or backward trajectory, depending on the
gear that is engaged.
If an obstacle is located in the vehicle’s way,
the corresponding audible warning will sound.
When the penultimate segment is displayed,
the vehicle has reached the collision zone. In
the collision zone, the obstacles are represen-
ted in red (including those out of the path).
Stop the vehicle!

Automatic parking system
Introduction
The automatic parking system is an additional
function of ParkPilot
and helps
the driver find a suitable parking space from
among the following types:
•
park driving in reverse in suitable perpendic-
ular and parallel spaces,
•
park driving forwards in suitable perpendicu-
lar spaces,
•
exit a parking space driving forwards from a
parallel space,
•
park in a suitable space driving forward on
angle partially entering into the selected park-
ing space. The system will centre the vehicle in
the parking space,
•
finish reverse parking into a space in which
you have attempted to park manually by parti-
ally entering with the rear of the vehicle.
In vehicles with an automatic parking system
and factory infotainment system, the front,
rear and side areas are represented, and the
position of obstacles is shown relative to the
vehicle.
The automatic parking system is subject to
certain limitations inherent to the system
and its use requires special attention by the
driver
.
WARNING
The technology used in the automatic park-
ing system has a series of limitations inherent
in the actual system and in the use of ultra-
sonic sensors. The use of Park Assist should
never tempt you to take any risk that may
compromise safety. The system is not a re-
placement for driver awareness.
•
Any accidental movement of the vehicle
could result in serious injury.
•
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and traf-
fic conditions.
•
Certain surfaces of objects and garments
do not reflect the ultrasound sensors' sig-
nals. The system cannot detect, at least cor-
rectly, these objects or people wearing such
clothes.
