Parking and manoeuvring
Whenever the obstacle is located in the vehi-
cl
e’s direction of travel, the corresponding audi-
ble warning will sound.
When the penultimate segment is displayed,
the vehicle has reached the collision zone. In
the collision zone, the obstacles are represen-
ted in red (including those out of the path). Stop
the vehicle! ›››
in Description on page188.
If fitt
ed with Top View Camera, the segment
display is not shown. The Parking assist system
will issue an audible warning for objects that
are near the rear of the vehicle, and the Top
View Camera image will be shown on the info-
tainment system display, giving a real image of
the objects around the car.
Parking aid system (Park
Assist)
Introduction
The assisted parking system is an additional
function of ParkPilot ›››page186 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.
In vehicles with a Park Assist system and factory
inf
otainment 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
could result in serious injury.
●
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to 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 obst
acles and people are not
detected.
●
Monitor the area around the vehicle at all
times, since the ultr
asound 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.
NOTICE
●
In certain circumstances, the ultrasonic
sensors do not detect objects such as trailer
tongues, bars, fences, posts or thin trees, or
an open (or opening) rear lid, which could
damage the vehicle.
●
Retrofitting of certain accessories to the
vehicle, such as a bicycle rack, may interfere
with the operation of the Park Assist system
and cause damage.
●
The Park Assist system uses as a reference
parked vehicles, curbs and other objects.
Make sure that the tyres and wheels are not
