Introduction of the New E-Class Coupé, Model Series 207

The special equipment Exclusive Parking Assist
with code (230) is an extension of the PARKTRONIC
system which now helps the driver in finding a
parking space and provides steering instructions
during the parking procedure. However, it does not
park the vehicle by itself.
Ultrasonic sensors are used to scan the road for
potential parking spaces, which are suggested to
the driver. The system merely gives steering and
direction instructions in the instrument cluster to
assist with longitudinal and lateral guidance.

Note
The driver is responsible for estimating the suit-
ability and plausibility of the parking space found,
and for the actual parking.
The parking space search function can merely
detect a free space that is geometrically suitable
for parking; it cannot tell whether this free space
is actually a parking space.
