Note:
You must observe that the selected space remains clear of
obstructions at all times in the maneuver.
Note:
Vehicles with overhanging loads (e.g. a bus or a truck), street
furniture and other items may not be detected by active park assist.
You must ensure the selected space is suitable for parking.
Note:
The vehicle should be driven as parallel to other vehicles as
possible while passing a parking space.
Note:
The system always offers the last detected parking space (i.e. if
the vehicle detects multiple spaces while you are driving, it offers the
last one).
Note:
If driven above approximately 20 mph (35 km/h), the touch
screen shows a message to alert the driver to reduce vehicle speed.
Automatic Steering into Parking Space
Note:
If vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), the system turns off
and you need to take full control of the vehicle.
Note:
If a maneuver is interrupted before completion, the system turns
off and you need to full take control of the vehicle. In some instances
after an interruption a message may appear that would allow you to
resume the maneuver.
With hands off the wheel (and nothing obstructing its movement) and
the transmission in
R
(Reverse), the vehicle steers itself as instructions
to safely move the vehicle back and forward in the space are displayed in
the touch screen. While reversing, the touch screen displays a message
instructing the driver to check their surroundings (for safety reasons)
and to back-up slowly, accompanied by a corresponding graphic.
