Parking tips:
R
The way your vehicle is positioned in the
parking space after parking is dependent
on various factors. These include the posi-
tion and shape of the vehicles parked in
front and behind it and the conditions of the
location. It may be the case that Active
Parking Assist guides you too far into a
parking space, or not far enough into it. In
some cases, it may also lead you across or
onto the kerb. If necessary, you should can-
cel the parking procedure with Active Park-
ing Assist.
R
You can also preselect transmission posi-
tion D. The vehicle redirects and does not
drive as far into the parking space. Should
the transmission change take place too
early, the parking procedure will be cancel-
led. A sensible parking position can no lon-
ger be achieved from this position.
Exiting a parking space
In order that Active Parking Assist can sup-
port you when you exit the parking space:
R
the border of the parking space must be
high enough at the front and the rear. A
kerb stone is too small, for example.
R
the border of the parking space must not be
too wide, as the position of the vehicle must
not exceed an angle of 45° to the starting
position as it is manoeuvred into the park-
ing space.
R
a manoeuvring distance of at least 1.0 m
must be available.
Active Parking Assist can only assist you with
exiting a parking space if you have parked the
Driving systems
