Parking and maneuvering
ZA\ WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 141.
— The driver is always responsible when enter-
ing or exiting a parking space and during
similar maneuvers.
— Do not use this function if the vehicle cannot
move freely, for example when on a vehicle
jack.
— Sensors and cameras have spots in which
the surrounding area cannot be detected.
Objects, animals, and people may only be
detected with limitations may not be detect-
ed at all. Always monitor the traffic and the
vehicle's surroundings directly and do not
become distracted.
@) Note
— Do not use the park assist systems when
transporting cargo that extends out of the
vehicle, when snow chains are mounted, or
when the parking space is on a hill or in-
cline.
— Park assist guides the vehicle either away
from curbs or onto them if other vehicles
are parked on the curb. Make sure that your
vehicle's tires and rims are not damaged.
Resume control of the vehicle in time or
stop the parking process if needed to pre-
vent damage.

traffic situation permits, accelerate carefully
> AX. The maximum parking speed is approxi-
mately 4 mph (7 km/h).

Z\ WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 141.
— The park assist is an assist system. The driv-
er is still responsible for monitoring the ve-
hicle's surroundings and preventing colli-
sions when using the system.
— When using park assist to drive into or out
of a parking space, the steering wheel turns
quickly on its own. Reaching into the steer-
ing wheel spokes while this is happening can
result in injury.
G) Tips
You can also cancel the driving direction set
by the system by shifting between a forward
gear and reverse gear. Based on the position
of the vehicle, the system then calculates the
additional steering and driving directions for
maneuvering.
