Active Park Assist
Introduction
Active Park Assist shows parking
spaces that are suitable for parking
and assists the driver when driving into
and out of parking spaces.
Active Park Assist is an extended function
of the parking sensors.
Active Park Assist steers the vehicle auto-
matically. The driver must control the ac-
celerator, gear changes and brake
→
page 188.
The following functions are supported:
— Displaying a suitable parking space.
— Selecting a parking mode
— Driving into suitable parallel and bay
parking spaces,
— Driving out of a parallel parking space.
Please also observe the text messages in
the instrument cluster display and the Info-
tainment system.
WARNING
The intelligent technology of the parking
systems cannot overcome the laws of
physics, and functions only within the sys-
tem limits. If this is not observed, this can
result in accidents, serious injuries and al-
so damage to the vehicle.
·
Pay careful attention to the parking
procedure and the
traffic around you.
Keep looking in the direction in which
you are parking.
·
Use the foot brake to slow the vehicle
in a hazardous situation.
WARNING
Fast rotational steering wheel move-
ments can cause serious injury.
·
When manoeuvring, do not reach for
the steering wheel until prompted to do
so by the system.
— Exception: if a dangerous situation
occurs, intervene and take over the
steering.
NOTICE
Active Park Assist uses parked vehicles, the
kerb and other objects as guidance. Please
ensure that the wheels and tyres are not
damaged when parking the vehicle.
·
If necessary, abort the parking procedure.
Practise using Active Park Assist in
a
traffic-calmed area or a car park in
order to familiarise yourself with the sys-
tem and its functions.
Any equipment that has been retrofit-
ted to the vehicle, e.g. a bicycle carrier,
can prevent Active Park Assist from func-
tioning properly and may cause damage.
Active Park Assist cannot be activa-
ted if the vehicle detects an electrical-
ly connected trailer → page 272.
When carrying out parking manoeu-
vres, the vehicle may be braked if the
driver accelerates too strongly.
The parking function and the acoustic
warnings will be deactivated if other
functions are operated on the Infotainment
system during a parking operation.
Active Park Assist switches itself off if
the driver door, sliding door and/or the
boot lid or wing door are open.
