Active Parking Assist is switched on automat-

ically when driving forwards. The system is

operational at speeds of up to approximately

22 mph (35 km/h). While in operation, the

system independently locates and measures

parking 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

R

that are parallel to the direction of travel

and at least 39.5 in (1.0 m) longer than your

vehicle

R

that are at right angles to the direction of

travel and at least 39.5 in (1.0 m) wider

than your vehicle

i

Note that Active Parking Assist cannot

measure the length of a parking space if it

is at right angles to the direction of travel.

You will need to judge whether your vehicle

will fit into the parking space.

When driving at speeds below 19 mph

(30 km/h), you will see the parking symbol as

a status indicator in the instrument cluster.

When a parking space has been detected, an

arrow towards the right or the left also

appears. By default, Active Parking Assist

only displays parking spaces on the front-

passenger side. Parking spaces on the driv-

er's side are displayed as soon as the turn

signal on the driver's side is activated. When

parking on the driver's side, this must remain

switched on until you acknowledge the use of

Active Parking Assist by pressing the a

button on the multifunction steering wheel.

The system automatically determines

whether the parking space is parallel or at

right angles to the direction of travel.

A parking space is displayed while you are

driving past it, and until you are approx-

imately 50 ft (15 m) away from it.
