Parking Assist - Vauxhall Astra Owner's Manual

Parking assist

The parking assist makes parking
easier by measuring the distance
between the vehicle and obstacles,
and giving acoustic signals.
The warning chime regarding
unfastened seat belts has priority
over any other acoustic signal 3 116.
Even when using the parking assist,
the driver remains fully responsible
for the parking manoeuvre.
The system consists of four ultrasonic
parking sensors in the rear bumper. If
the vehicle is equipped with a front
parking assist the system consists of
four additional ultrasonic parking
sensors in the front bumper.
The system uses two different
frequencies for the front and rear
sensors, respectively, each with
a different sound.
Control indicator r 3 106.
Activation
When reverse gear is engaged, the
system is activated automatically.
The front parking assist can also be
activated at a low speed by pressing
the r button.
Driving and operating
An illuminated LED in the parking
assist button indicates that the
system is ready to operate.
Depending on which of the sensors
are closer to an obstacle, you will hear
the buzzing sound of the respective
sensors. The interval between the
sounds becomes shorter as the
vehicle gets closer to the obstacle.
When the distance is less than
30 cm, the buzzing is continuous.
If the r button is pressed once
within an ignition cycle, the front
parking assist is always reactivated
when the vehicle speed goes below
a certain value.
Deactivation
Deactivate the system by pressing
the r button.
The LED in the button will go out and
Park Assist Off will be displayed in the
Driver Information Centre.
The system is deactivated
automatically at a certain speed.
