The system only operates if the ignition is switched on.
The displays, messages and system instructions are displayed in the MAXI DOT
display (in the display only below).
During the parking procedure the system only takes over the steering move-
ments, the pedals continue to be operated by the driver.
When the system is activated, the warning light  lights up
page 154 - .
The traction control system (TCS) must always be switched on when parking.
Basis of the system function
›
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 or forwards from the parking space.
›
the automatic turning of the front wheels when parking in, or manoeuvring out
of the parking space.
WARNING
The system does not exempt the driver from his/her responsibility for park-
■
ing in and manoeuvring out of the parking space.
External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on parking in and ma-
■
noeuvring out of the parking space. Under adverse conditions, this may cause
objects or people to not be recognised by the system.
When parking in, and manoeuvring out of parking spaces, the system auto-
■
matically executes quick steering movements. While it is doing so, do not
place your hands between the steering wheel – risk of injury!
When parking or departing from a parking space on loose or slippery surfa-
■
ces (gravel, snow, ice etc.), there may be deviations due to the conditions of
the calculated road surface. We therefore recommend not using the system in
such situations.
CAUTION
If other vehicles are parked behind or on the kerb, the system can guide your
■
vehicle beyond the kerb or onto it. Ensure that the wheels or the wheel rims of
your vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.
Under certain circumstances, the surfaces or structures of certain objects such
■
as wire mesh fences or powder snow cannot be detected by the system.

Driving
The evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure depend on the
■
circumference of the wheels. The system only works correctly if the vehicle is fit-
ted with the wheel size approved by the manufacturer.
If wheels other than those approved by the manufacturer are mounted, the re-
■
sulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This can be
avoided by readjusting the system at a specialist garage.
Under certain circumstances, the system may not function correctly, for exam-
