WARNING
The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
■
it is always the driver's responsibility to take care when reversing the vehicle
or carrying out similar manoeuvres. Pay particular attention to small children
and animals as they are not recognised by the parking aid sensors.
Before reversing or parking, check that there is no small obstacle, such as a
■
rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., in front of or behind the vehicle. Such ob-
stacles may not be recognised by the parking aid sensors.
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of cloth-
■
ing cannot reflect the signals from the parking aid. Thus, these objects or peo-
ple who wear such clothing are not recognised by the parking aid sensors.
External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on the parking aid.
■
Under unfavourable conditions, objects or people may not be recognised.

Park assist

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Park assist display on the information display
Parking with the help of the park assist system and completing the parking
procedure
Messages in the information display
The parking aid is part of the park assist system, therefore the information and
safety guidelines » page 112, Parking aid must be read and observed.
The park assist system helps you to park in a suitable parallel parking space be-
tween two vehicles or behind a vehicle.
After switching on the ignition and when driving at a speed of up to 30 km/h, the
park assist system automatically searches for suitable parking spaces on the driv-
er's and passenger's side of the vehicle.
During the parking procedure the park assist only takes over the steering move-
ments, the pedals continue to be operated by the driver.
If the park assist system is switched on, a yellow indicator light illuminates up in
the button » Fig. 121 on page 114.
The function of the system is based on:
›
the measurement and evaluation of the size of parking spaces when driving,
›
the determination of the correct position of the vehicle for parking,
›
the calculation of the line on which the vehicle drives backwards into the park-
ing space,
›
the automatic turning of the front wheels when parking.
