space with no traffic in order to become familiar
with the system and how it works.
When parking or pulling out of a parking
space, the system gives a signal tone to tell
the driver to switch between driving forward and
backing up. Do not wait until the Park Distance Con-
trol sounds continuously before changing direction.
If the Park Assist system turns the steering
wheel when the vehicle is not moving, the
symbol also appears in the instrument cluster dis-
play. Depress the brake pedal so that the steering
movement takes place while the vehicle is not mov-
ing, keeping the required number of parking maneu-
vers to a minimum.
Certain settings are automatically saved by
the driver personalization feature → page 30,
Driver personalization.
