Interrupting or automatically stopping the 
parking procedure 
The Park Ass is t  system will stop  the parking proce
dure  if th e following happens : 
• The 8 button is pressed. 
• The  ve hi cle  spee d when  parking  is higher than 
app roxim ate ly 
7 km /h (4 mph). 
• The  driver  operates  the steering  wheel. 
• The parking  procedure  was not completed with
in approximately 6 minutes of activating  the auto
matic  stee ring  intervention . 
• There  is a system  fault (system  is temporarily 
un ava ilable) . 
• 
The TCS is  switched off or the TCS or ESP 
starts  to regulate . 
r::l The Park Assist system  has system-related 
l!J limitations . For  example,  the Park Assist sys
t e m  cannot  help you to park  the 
vehicle on tight 
b e nd s. 
r::l Wh en  parking parallel to  the  road , a  warning 
L!J signal  can be heard  to tell the driver  to switch 
between  driving forwards  and reversing  because 
the  change 
of direct ion  should  not take place in the 
permanent  tone area 
of the ParkPilot. 
r::l The progress  bar in the  instrument cluster 
l!J display  will symbolically indicate the  relative 
distance  remaining . 
W If the Park Assist system  turns the steering 
l!J wheel  when the vehicle  is stationary , the 6l 
symbol  appears  as well. Depress  the brake pedal 
so that  the steering  movement  takes place with the 
vehicle stationary, keeping  the required number of 
parking  movements  to a minimum. 
r::l If the  parking result worsens  after a wheel is 
~ changed,  the system will first  have to syn
chronise 
itself with  the new wheel.  The synchroni
sation  procedure is  carried out 
automatically  while 
the vehicle is in  motion. You can  support  this proc
ess by driving slowly  (less than 20 km/h (12 mph)) 
through  a bend,  e.g.  in an  empty car park.
