■Function summary
If a parking space can be detected, you will be guided forward until
you reach the assist c ontrol starting position, and then the parallel
parking assist mode can be used. Furthermore, depending on the
parking space and other condition s, multi-turn maneuvering assist
control is also provided if necessary.
Continue moving forward
with the vehicle parallel to
the curb or road, and stop so
that the center of the target
parking spot appears nearly
perpendicular to the vehicle.
Then press the S-APGS
switch 1 time to select the
parallel parking assist mode.
Travel straight ahead paral-
lel with the road or curb so
that the parking space is
detected.
A sound is issued and a display is shown to notify you when the
vehicle reaches a position where assist control can be used to
begin backing up from, and then when the shift position is
changed according to guidance prov ided by the system, steering
wheel auto operation begins.
If the detected parking space or road width (distance to the side of th\
e
road across from the parking space) is narrow, or if there are obstacles
in front of the vehicle, guidance will not be issued.
Parking is complete
This completes the assist mode. Depending on the condition of the
parking space, guidance to starting points for moving forward and back-
ing up, as well as the steering wheel auto operation, are repeated any
time multi-turn maneuvering is necessary following step from the
time the vehicle begins backing up until parking completes.
