ACTIVE PARK ASSIST

WARNINGS
At all times you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising
the system and intervening if
required.
You must observe that the selected
space remains clear of obstructions
at all times in the manoeuver.
The system may not detect parked
vehicles with overhanging loads,
street furniture or other items. You
must make sure that the selected space
is suitable for parking.
Do not use the system if there is an
overhanging item attached to your
vehicle roof.
Do not use the system if a trailer is
attached to your vehicle.
Do not use the system if a bike rack
is attached to the back of your
vehicle.
If interrupted before the manoeuvre
is completed, the system will turn
off. The steering wheel position will
not indicate the true position of the
steering and you will have to take control
of your vehicle.
Make sure that your hands, arms and
loose clothing do not get caught in
the rotating steering wheel.
Note: After a tire change the system will go
through a relearning procedure. During this
time the system performance may
deteriorate.

Parking Aids
The system will detect a suitable parallel
parking space and steer your vehicle into
the space. The system controls the
steering while you control the accelerator,
transmission and brakes. You can stop the
manoeuvre at any time by holding the
(If Equipped)
steering wheel or pressing the active park
assist switch. See At a Glance (page 11).
The system will visually and audibly
instruct you throughout the manoeuvre to
safely park your vehicle.
Using the System
Note: The sensors may not detect objects
in heavy rain or other conditions that cause
disruptive reflections.
Note: The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic waves.
Note: The sensors may not detect the curb.
Note: If the traction control system is
disabled active park assist will not be
available.
The system may not align your vehicle
correctly if:
• a spare tire or a significantly worn tire
more than the other tires is used
• you use a tire size not recommended
by us
• the tires skid
• the weather conditions are poor (heavy
rain, snow, fog, etc).
Move forward at a maximum speed of 22
mph (35 km/h) and keep a passing
distance between 1.3 - 6.6 feet (0.4 - 2
meters) to the parked vehicles or objects.
Press the active park assist switch. See At
a Glance (page 11). Use the direction
indicator to select searching either to the
left-hand side or right-hand side of your
vehicle.

system will default to the passenger's side.
