Automatic braking intervention by
Park Assist
Park Assist helps the driver by automatically
braking in certain situations.
The driver is always responsible for braking
›››
in time .
Automatic braking intervention to avoid ex-
ceeding the speed limit
To avoid exceeding the speed limit of approx-
imately 7 km/h (4 mph) when entering or
leaving a parking space, the brakes may acti-
vate automatically. After automatically acti-
vating the brakes, the manoeuvres to enter or
exit a parking space may continue.
The brakes are only automatically activated
once for each attempt to enter or exit a park-
ing space. If the speed of approximately
7 km/h (4 mph) is exceeded again, the corre-
sponding operation is halted.
Automatic braking to reduce damages
Depending on certain conditions, the Park
Assist system can automatically brake the ve-
hicle when faced with an obstacle, briefly ac-
tioning and holding down the brake ped-
›››
al . Following this the driver must press
the brake pedal.
Automatic braking intervention to reduce
damage leads to the parking manoeuvre fin-
ishing.

General information
Assorted assistance systems – which vary
depending on the equipment fitted in the car
– will help you when parking or manoeu-
vring.
The rear parking aid is an audible assistant
that warns about obstacles located behind

the vehicle page 241.
During parking, Parking System Plus assists
the driver by visually and audibly warning
them about obstacles detected in front and
›››
behind the vehicle page 242.
WARNING
● Always pay attention, also when looking
straight ahead, to traffic and the vehicle sur-
roundings. The assistance systems are not a
replacement for driver awareness. When in-
serting or removing the vehicle from a park-
ing space, or when performing similar ma-
noeuvres the driver always assumes the re-
sponsibility.
● Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and traf-
fic conditions.
● The ultrasound sensors have blind spots in
which obstacles and people are not regis-
tered. Pay special attention to children and
animals.
Always keep visual control of the vehicle
●
surroundings: use the mirrors for additional
help.
