●
The traction control system (ASR) must be
t
urned on

.
●
Speed when passing next to the parking
space (parallel parking): do not exceed ap-
prox. 40 km/h (25 mph).
●
Speed when passing next to the parking
space (angle parking): do not exceed approx.
20 km/h (12 mph).
●
Keep a distance between 0.5 and 2.0 me-
tres when driving past the parking space.
●
Space length (parallel parking): vehicle
length + 0.8 meters.
●
Space width (angle parking): vehicle width
+ 0.8 meters.
●
Do not exceed approximately 7 km/h
(4 mph) when parking.
Requirements for leaving the parking
space (only for parallel parking)
●
The traction control system (ASR) must be
turned on
›››
page 302.
●
Space length: length of the vehicle + 0.5
metres.
●
Do not exceed approximately 7 km/h
(4 mph) when exiting the parking space.
Prematurely stopping or automatically in-
terrupting the manoeuvres for parking or
exiting a parking space
Park Assist interrupts the manoeuvres for
parking or exiting a parking space in any of
the following cases:
●
Press the button.
●
The speed exceeds approximately 7 km/h
(4 mph).
●
The driver takes hold of the steering wheel.
●
The parking manoeuvre does not end within
6 minutes from the activation of automatic
steering.
●
There is a fault in the system (the system is
temporarily unavailable).
●
ASR is switched off.
●
ASR or ESC intervene with regulation.
●
The driver door is opened.
To restart the manoeuvre it is necessary that
none of these things occur and that the
button is pressed again.
Special characteristics
The Park Assist system is subject to certain
limitations inherent to the system. For exam-
ple, it is therefore not possible to enter or exit
a parking space on sharp bends.
While entering or exiting a parking space, a
brief signal sounds to prompt the driver to
change between forward and reverse gears
(depending on the case). In successive ma-
noeuvres, the assistant tells the driver to
change gears, at the latest, when the contin-
uous audible signal is given (object present at
a distance of ≤30 cm) by Park Pilot.
When the Park Assist system turns the steer-
ing wheel with the vehicle stationary, the in-
strument panel also displays the symbol .
Keep the brake pedal depressed while the
symbol remains on the dash panel display to
turn the wheels with the vehicle stopped. This
way, the system will require fewer manoeu-
vres to complete the parking action.
Trailer mode
The Park Assist system cannot be switched
on if the factory-fitted towing bracket
›››
page 324 is electrically connected to a
trailer.
After changing a wheel
If, after changing a wheel, the vehicle stops
entering and exiting parking spaces correct-
ly, the circumference of the new wheel may
be different and the system may need to
adapt to it. The adaptation is automatic and
takes place during driving. Making turns slow-
ly and in both directions (20 km/h [12 mph])
for a few minutes may contribute to this
adaptation process
