18.￿Parking￿Maneuver￿Assistant
Personal￿responsibility:
• Directly￿monitor￿gaps￿and￿the￿parking￿procedure￿and￿intervene￿if￿necessary,￿as￿otherwise
there￿is￿a￿risk￿of￿accidents.
• If￿a￿parking￿space￿that￿has￿already￿been￿measured￿changes,￿the￿system￿does￿not￿take￿this￿into
account.
• The￿system￿does￿not￿take￿loads￿that￿project￿above￿the￿vehicle￿into￿account￿during￿parking.
• The￿Parking￿Maneuver￿Assistant￿PMA￿may￿steer￿the￿vehicle￿over￿or￿up￿onto￿curbs.￿You￿should
therefore￿use￿the￿facility￿for￿active￿intervention￿at￿any￿time￿with￿caution￿as￿you￿may￿otherwise
damage￿wheels￿and￿tires￿or￿the￿vehicle￿itself.
The￿Parking￿Maneuver￿Assistant￿PMA￿does￿not￿relieve￿the￿driver￿of￿personal￿responsibility￿during
parking.￿Therefore,￿be￿attentive￿in￿order￿to￿be￿able￿to￿actively￿intervene￿at￿any￿time.￿Otherwise,￿there￿is
a￿risk￿of￿an￿accident.
18.5.￿Functional￿prerequisites
To￿use￿the￿Parking￿Maneuver￿Assistant￿function,￿the￿following￿basic￿prerequisites￿must￿be￿met:
• the￿doors￿must￿be￿closed
• the￿tailgate￿must￿be￿closed
• the￿driver's￿seat￿belt￿must￿be￿fastened
• the￿parking￿brake￿must￿be￿released
18.5.1.￿Measuring￿parking￿spaces
Parking￿spaces￿are￿measured￿while￿driving.￿The￿following￿parameters￿apply:
• Driving￿forwards￿straight-ahead￿up￿to￿about￿35 km/h
• Maximum￿distance￿to￿the￿row￿of￿parked￿vehicles:￿1.5￿m.
Detecting￿the￿curb
If￿a￿curb￿is￿detected￿within￿the￿range￿of￿the￿ultrasonic￿sensor￿while￿the￿system￿is￿searching￿for￿a
parking￿space,￿the￿parking￿space￿is￿for￿the￿most￿a￿space￿that￿is￿parallel￿to￿the￿road.
In￿the￿case￿of￿parking￿spaces￿that￿are￿perpendicular￿to￿the￿roadway,￿the￿curb￿is￿usually￿outside￿the
detection￿range￿of￿the￿ultrasonic￿sensors￿(range￿about￿4.2 m).
