Remote Parking Assist supports the manoeu‐
vring or parking procedure while you are outside
your vehicle. Once you have selected a suitable
parking space, you then exit the vehicle and
guide it into the parking space using a suitable
mobile phone. Remote Parking Assist changes
gear, accelerates, brakes and steers the vehicle.
While Remote Parking Assist is active, the vehi‐
cle is locked. You can interrupt the parking proc‐
ess at any time with the mobile phone or the
vehicle key and then take over the vehicle your‐
self.
You can also use your mobile phone to move
your vehicle backwards and forwards in the
straight-ahead position (exploration mode). This
is useful, for example, if a garage is so narrow
that it is difficult or impossible to get in or out of
the vehicle after it has been parked. Remote
Parking Assist automatically performs any minor
steering corrections that are required.
Remote Parking Assist is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for your attention to the surroundings.
The responsibility for safe manoeuvring and
parking remains with you. Interrupt or terminate
the parking procedure if necessary. Make sure
that no persons, animals or objects etc. are in
the manoeuvring range.
For the Remote Parking Assist function, you
require a mobile phone and the current Remote
Parking Assist App.
The following operating systems are supported:
R
Android™
R
Apple ® iOS
If the connection between the vehicle and the
mobile phone is interrupted while a parking
manoeuvre is being performed, the manoeuvre
can be continued if the connection is re-estab‐
lished within about two minutes.
The following scenarios are supported:
R
Parking in a parking space parallel to the
direction of travel.
R
Parking in a parking space at right angles to
the direction of travel.
R
Exiting a parking space at right angles to the
direction of travel (exploration mode).
R
Parking in a straight-ahead position, e.g. into
a garage or carport (exploration mode).
R
Exiting a parking space in a straight-ahead
position, e.g. from a garage or carport (explo‐
ration mode).
If a malfunction or a system limitation is detec‐
ted while parking or manoeuvring (e.g. the per‐
mitted downhill gradient is exceeded), the fol‐
lowing actions are performed automatically:
R
The parking manoeuvre is cancelled.
R
The vehicle is brought to a standstill.
R
Transmission position j is engaged.
R
the vehicle is switched off.
R
The vehicle remains locked.
If the parking manoeuvre is cancelled, a corre‐
sponding message is displayed on the mobile
phone. You can then take over and manoeuvre
the vehicle into the parking space yourself. Alter‐
natively, you can move the vehicle back to its
original position, if necessary.
You can interrupt the parking procedure with
Active Parking Assist in order to take control of
the vehicle with Remote Parking Assist and
manoeuvre it into its final position.
