Parking tips:
R
on narrow roads, drive as close to the parking
space as possible
R
parking spaces that are littered or overgrown
might be identified or measured incorrectly
R
parking spaces that are partially occupied by
trailer drawbars might not be identified as
such or be measured incorrectly
R
snowfall or heavy rain may lead to a parking
space being measured inaccurately
R
pay attention to the warning messages of
Parking Assist PARKTRONIC during the park-
ing procedure (Y page 189).
R
you can intervene in the steering procedure to
correct it at any time. Active Parking Assist
will then be canceled
R
when transporting a load which protrudes
from your vehicle, you should not use Active
Parking Assist
R
never use Active Parking Assist when snow
chains are installed
R
make sure that the tire pressures are always
correct. This has a direct influence on the
parking characteristics of the vehicle
Use Active Parking Assist for parking spaces:
R
parallel or at right angles to the direction of
travel
R
on straight roads, not bends
R
on the same level as the road, e.g. not on the
pavement
Detecting parking spaces
Objects located above the detection range of
Active Parking Assist will not be detected when
the parking space is measured. These are not
taken into account when the parking/exiting
procedure is calculated, e.g. overhanging loads,
tail sections or loading ramps of trucks. Active
Parking Assist may therefore guide you into the
parking space too early.
G
WARNING
If there are objects above the detection range:
R
Active Parking Assist may steer too early
R
the vehicle may not stop in front of these
objects
This could cause a collision. There is a risk of
an accident.
If objects are located above the detection
range, stop and deactivate Active Parking
Assist.
Further information about the detection range
(Y page 190).
Active Parking Assist does not assist you park-
ing in spaces at right angles to the direction of
travel if:
R
two parking spaces are located directly next
to one another
R
the parking space is directly next to a low
obstacle such as a low curb
R
you park forwards
Active Parking Assist does not assist you park-
ing in spaces that are parallel or at right angles
to the direction of travel if:
R
the parking space is on a curb
R
the system reads the parking space as being
blocked, for example by foliage or grass pav-
ing blocks
R
the area is too small for the vehicle to maneu-
ver into
R
the parking space is bordered by an obstacle,
e.g. a tree, a post or a trailer

Active Parking Assist is switched on automati-
cally when driving forwards. The system is
operational up to a speed of approximately
22 mph (35 km/h). While in operation, the sys-
tem independently locates and measures park-
ing spaces on both sides of the vehicle.
Active Parking Assist will only detect parking
spaces:
R
parallel or at right angles to the direction of
travel
R
that are parallel to the direction of travel and
at least 59 in (1.5 m) wide
