Special parking situations

Applies to vehicles: with parking system advanced
Parking next to an obstacle
When parking next to an obstacle it is important to keep
sufficient distance at the side.
When using "Parking mode 2" you can park your vehicle very close
to the kerb of the pavement ⇒ page 143, fig. 157.
However, if you are parking, for example, next to a wall, you must
keep a greater distance to the side in order to avoid any collision
damage. Position the long side of the blue area marking in such a
way that there is sufficient distance to the kerb. The area marking
must NOT touch the kerb ⇒ fig. 168.
You also have to steer in the opposite direction a lot earlier. This
means that the blue curve ⇒ page 146, fig. 163 must not touch the
kerb - make sure there is a sufficient distance to the kerb ⇒
WARNING
Please make sure you keep a sufficient distance between the
vehicle and any obstacles to make sure that the exterior mirror or
edge of the vehicle do not collide with the obstacle (accident risk).
