Objects that are above or below the detection
range of Active Parking Assist, e.g. protruding
loads, overhangs or loading ramps of trucks or
boundaries of parking spaces, are not detected
when measuring the parking space. These are
also then not taken into account when calculating
the parking procedure. In some circumstances,
Active Parking Assist may therefore guide you into
the parking space prematurely or brake too late.
Certain environmental conditions, suchas snowfall
or heavy rain, may lead to a parking space being
measured inaccurately. Parking spaces that are
partially occupied by trailer drawbars might not be
identified as such or be measured incorrectly.
Only use Active Parking Assist on level, high-grip
ground.
