Using Active Park Assist - Parallel
Parking
E146186
Press the button located on the
center console near the gearshift
lever or the right side of the
center stack once.
When driving at a speed less than 35 km/h
(22 mph) the system automatically scans
both sides of your vehicle for an available
parking space. The system displays a
message and a corresponding graphic to
indicate it is searching for a parking space.
Use the direction indicator to select
searching either to the left-hand side or
right-hand side of your vehicle. If the
direction indicators are not used, the
system defaults to the passenger side of
your vehicle.

Note: You can also activate the Active Park
Assist system after you have already driven
partially or completely past a parking space.
To do so, press the Active Park button and
the system will inform you if you have
recently passed a suitable parking space.
When the system finds a suitable space,
it displays a message and a tone sounds.
Stop your vehicle and follow the
instructions on the screen. If your vehicle
is moving very slowly, you may need to pull
forward a short distance before the system
is ready to park.
Note: You must observe that the selected
space remains clear of obstructions at all
times during the maneuver.
Note: You should drive your vehicle within
1.5 m (5 ft) and as parallel as possible to
the other vehicles while passing a parking
space.
Note: The system always offers the last
detected parking space (for example, if your
vehicle detects multiple spaces while you
are driving, it offers the last one).
Note: If driven above approximately
35 km/h (22 mph), the system shows a
message to alert you to reduce your vehicle
speed.
Automatic Steering into Parking Space
Note: If your vehicle speed exceeds
approximately 10 km/h (6 mph) or the
maneuver is interrupted (driver input), the
system switches off and you need to take
full control of your vehicle.
When you shift the transmission into
reverse (R), with your hands off the wheel
(and nothing obstructing its movement),
your vehicle steers itself into the space.
The system displays instructions to move
your vehicle back and forth in the space.
