NOTE
Dirt, ice and snow covering the sensors
reduce their function and can make meas-
urement impossible.
Driver responsibility
The driver should keep in mind that the func-
tion is a parking aid ‒ not an infallible fully
automatic system. The driver must always be
prepared to take control and cancel a parking
sequence if necessary.
There are a number of things to keep in mind
when parking, including:
The driver is always responsible for deter-
•
mining if the space suggested by the func-
tion is suitable for parking.
Do not use the function when using snow
•
chains or a temporary spare tire.
Do not use the function if there are any
•
objects protruding from the vehicle.
Heavy rain or snowfall may inhibit PAP's
•
ability to accurately measure a parking
space.
While searching and measuring the park-
•
ing space, the function may be unable to
detect objects located far into the space.
101
"Approved tires" refers to tires of the same type and make as the vehicle's original, factory-installed tires.
376
PAP may not suggest parking spaces on
•
narrow streets if it does not detect suffi-
cient space for maneuvering the vehicle.
101
Use approved tires
inflated to the cor-
•
rect tire pressure because this affects the
function's ability to provide parking assis-
tance.
The function is based on the way the vehi-
•
cles are parked behind and in front of your
parking space. If they are, for example,
parked too close to the curb, there is a risk
that your vehicle's tires or wheel rims
could be damaged by the curb during the
parking procedure.
Perpendicular parking spaces may not be
•
detected or may be suggested unneces-
sarily if a parked vehicle is sticking out
more than other parked vehicles.
The function is intended to provide park-
•
ing assistance on straight streets, not sec-
tions of street with sharp curves or bends.
Always make sure that your vehicle is par-
allel to relevant parking spaces when the
function is measuring the parking space.
