As soon as the parking procedure is com-
plete, the Park Park Assist Assist Switched
sage appears and a warning tone sounds. The
vehicle is now parked.
The vehicle is kept stationary without the
driver having to depress the brake pedal. The
braking effect is canceled when you depress
the accelerator pedal.
Active Parking Assist no longer supports you
with steering interventions and brake appli-
cations. When Active Parking Assist is fin-
ished, you must steer and brake again your-
self. PARKTRONIC is still available.
Parking tips:
The way your vehicle is positioned in the
R
parking space after parking is dependent
on various factors. These include the posi-
tion and shape of the vehicles parked in
front and behind it and the conditions of the
location. It may be the case that Active
Parking Assist guides you too far into a
parking space, or not far enough into it. In
some cases, it may also lead you across or
onto the curb. If necessary, you should can-
cel the parking procedure with Active Park-
ing Assist.
You can also select preselect transmission
R
position D. The vehicle redirects and does
not drive as far into the parking space.
Should the transmission change take place
too early, the parking procedure will be
canceled. A sensible parking position can
no longer be achieved from this position.

Exiting a parking space

In order that Active Parking Assist can sup-
port you when you exit the parking space:
the border of the parking space must be
R
high enough at the front and the rear. A
curb is too small, for example.
the border of the parking space must not be
R
too wide, as the position of the vehicle must
not exceed an angle of 45° to the starting
