Parking and manoeuvring
Error messages
If a an err
or or fault message appears on the in-
strument panel in Parking assist, there is a fault.
If the fault doesn't disappear before discon-
necting the ignition, it will not be indicated next
time the parking aid is connected.
We recommend taking the vehicle to a special-
ised workshop to have the fault repaired.
Towing device
In vehicles equipped with a towing bracket de-
vice from the factory, when the trailer is con-
nected, the parking aid will not be activated
when reverse gear is engaged.

Parking aid system (Park
Assist)
Introduction
The assisted parking system is an additional
function of ParkPilot ›››page212 and helps
the driver find a suitable parking space from
among the following types:
●
park driving in reverse in suitable perpendic-
ul
ar and parallel spaces,
●
park driving forwards in suitable perpendicu-
lar spaces,
●
exit a parking space driving forwards from a
parallel space,
●
park in a suitable space driving forward on
angle partially entering into the selected park-
ing space. The system will centre the vehicle in
the parking space,
●
finish reverse parking into a space in which
you have attempted to park manually by parti-
ally entering with the rear of the vehicle.
In vehicles with a Park Assist system and factory
infotainment system, the front, rear and side
areas are represented, and the position of ob-
stacles is shown relative to the vehicle.
The assisted parking system is subject to cer-
tain limitations inherent to the system and
its use requires special attention by the
driver›››
.
WARNING
The technology used in the park assist sys-
t
em involves a series of limitations inherent in
the actual system and in the use of ultrasonic
sensors. The use of Park Assist should never
tempt you to take any risk that may compro-
mise safety. The system is not a replacement
for driver awareness.
●
Any accidental movement of the vehicle
coul
d result in serious injury.
●
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times t
o suit visibility, weather, road and
trac conditions.
●
Certain surfaces of objects and garments
do not reflect the ultrasound sensors' sig-
nals. The system cannot detect, at least cor-
rectly, these objects or people wearing such
clothes.
●
Ultrasound sensor signals may be aected
by external sound sources. In certain circum-
stances this may prevent them from detect-
ing people or objects.
●
The ultrasound sensors may have blind
spots in which obstacles and people are not
detected.
●
Monitor the area around the vehicle at all
times, since the ultrasound sensors do not
detect small children, animals or certain ob-
jects in all situations.
WARNING
Quick turns of the steering wheel when park-
ing or e
xiting a parking space with Park As-
sist can cause serious injury.
●
Do not hold the steering wheel during ma-
noeuvres to park or exit a parking space un-
til the system requests it. Doing so disables
the system during the manoeuvre, resulting
in the parking being cancelled.
