Fault
In the event of a fault or if the system does not work temporarily, e.g.
because of high external noise level
or other interference factors, a
message pops-up in the Driver
Information Centre.
Vehicle messages 3 115.Advanced parking assist9 Warning
The driver bears full responsibility
for accepting the parking slot
suggested by the system and the
parking manoeuvre.
Always check the surrounding
area in all directions when using
the advanced parking assist.
The advanced parking assist
measures a suitable parking slot
while passing, calculates the
trajectory and automatically steers
the vehicle into a parallel or
perpendicular parking slot.
Instructions are given in the Driver
Information Centre 3 104 or,
depending on the version, on the Info- Display 3 111 , supported by acoustic
signals.
In vehicles with manual transmission, the driver must control acceleration,
braking and gear shifting, while
steering is done automatically.

202Driving and operatingIn vehicles with automatic
transmission, the driver must control
acceleration and gear shifting, while
braking and steering is done
automatically.
Advanced parking assist is always
combined with front-rear parking assist. Both systems use the same
sensors in the front and rear bumper.
The system has six ultrasonic parking sensors each in both the rear and
front bumper.
Activation of advanced parking assist
Advanced parking assist can only be
activated when driving forwards.
When searching for a parking slot, the system is ready to operate with a
short press of (.
The system recognises and
memorises ten metres for parallel parking slots or six metres for
perpendicular parking slots in the
parking assist mode.
The system can only be activated at
a speed up to 30 km/h and the system
searches for a parking slot at a speed up to 30 km/h.
The maximum allowed parallel
distance between the vehicle and a
row of parked cars is 1.8 metres for
parallel parking and 2.5 metres for
perpendicular parking.
FunctionalityParking slot searching mode,

parking slot in Driver Information
Centre by long press on (.
The system is configured to detect parking slots by default on the
passenger side. To detect parking
slots on the driver side, switch on turn
signal indicator on the driver side.

204Driving and operatingA brief vibration in the steering wheel
after engaging reverse gear indicates
that the steering is controlled by the
system. Then the vehicle with manual transmission is steered into the slot
automatically by giving the driver
detailed instructions for braking,
accelerating and gear shifting. With
automatic transmission the vehicle is
steered into the slot automatically by
giving the driver detailed instructions for accelerating and shifting forward
or reversing. The driver must keep
hands away from the steering wheel.
During park guiding mode the
manoeuvring speed is limited.
Always pay attention to the sound of
the front-rear parking assist.
Continuous sound indicates that the
distance to an obstacle is less than
approx. 30 cm.
If, for any reason, the driver must take over control of the steering, hold the
steering wheel only at the outer edge.
Automatic steering is cancelled in this event.Display indication
The instructions on the display show:
● General hints and warning messages.
● A hint when driving faster than 30 km/h during parking slot
