manoeuvre is completed.
x The park assist system steers the vehicle forwards and backwards until it

WARNING
The steering wheel turns quickly by itself when parking using the park
assist system. Placing your hand between the steering wheel spokes could
lead to injuries.
Note
The park assist system has its limitations. For example, it is not possible to
park on tight bends using the park assist system.
Note
Even if the park assist system recognises that there is not enough space for
parking the vehicle, the display screen on the instrument panel will still
display this place. In this case, the parking manoeuvre should not be
requested.
Note
Changing gears between forward and reverse gears before indicated (that is,
before the signal from the parking sensor system) the parking results may not
be ideal.
Note
For parallel parking (parallel to the road), a sound will tell the driver when
they must change from forward gears to reverse; the signal from the parking
sensor system does not indicate changes of direction.
