clothing cannot reflect the signal of the parking aid. Thus, these objects or
people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the sensors of the parking
aid.

Only the front parking aid operates if you are towing a trailer (applies only to
models which feature a factory-fitted towing device).

Driving Tips

Park Assist

Description and important information
The park assist assists you when parking in a suitable parallel parking space
between two vehicles or behind a vehicle.
or
The park assist automatically searches for suitable parking spaces after switching
on the ignition and when driving up to 30 km/h.
During the parking procedure the park assist only takes over the steering move-
ments, the pedals continue to be operated by the driver.
Function of the system is based on:
Length and depth measurement of the parking spaces when driving
Evaluation of the size of the parking space
Definition of the correct position of the vehicle for parking
Calculating the line on which the vehicle drives backwards into the parking
space
Actuation of the steering force assistance, automatic spinning of the wheels of
the front axle when parking.
WARNING
The park assist does not take away the responsability from the driver when
parking.
Pay particular attention to small children and animals as they would not be
recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the signal of the park assist or the parking aid. Thus,
these objects or people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the
sensors of the parking aid.
The external sound source of the park assist and the parking aid can be
disruptively influenced and under unfavourable conditions, objects or people
cannot be recognised by the sensors of the parking aid.
Caution
If other vehicles are parked behind or on the kurb, the park assist guides your
vehicle beyond the kurb or onto it. Make sure that the wheels or the wheel rims of
your vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.
