Note that Active Parking Assist cannot
measure the length of a parking space if it is at
right angles to the direction of travel. You will
need to judge whether your vehicle will fit in
the parking space.
When the vehicle is driving at speeds of up to
approximately 30 km/h, parking symbol
;
is
displayed in the instrument cluster as a status
display.
The system detects and differentiates between
parking spaces which are parallel or at right
angles to the direction of travel. When a parking
space is detected, an arrow appears next to
parking symbol
;
to indicate which side the
parking space is on. The parking space is dis-
played while you are driving past it and until you
are approximately 15 m away from it.
Active Parking Assist displays parking spaces on
the co-driver's side as standard. The parking
spaces on the driver's side are only displayed if
you operate the turn signal on the driver's side.
When parking on the driver's side, you must
operate the turn signal until you have started
active parking assistance by pressing the
a
button on the steering wheel.
