NOTICE
●If the road surface has any dips or inclines, the target parking spot cannot
be correctly set. Therefore, the vehicle may be parked at an an gle or may
deviate from the parking spot. In these cases, do not use the p arallel park-
ing assist mode.
● When there is a wall or other obstacle on the inner side of the parking
space, or when another parked vehicle extends into the road fro m its park-
ing spot, the target parking spot may be set in a position that juts out
slightly into the road.
● Depending on the surrounding environment, such as other parked vehi-
cles, the vehicle may be parked at an angle or may deviate from the park-
ing spot. Manually adjust vehi cle alignment as necessary.
● The system provides assistance to guide the vehicle based on position of
adjacent vehicles, even if there are obstacles, bumps, drops or curb
stones in the parking space.
If it seems the vehicle may make contact, stop the vehicle by d epressing
the brake pedal, and then press the S-IPA switch to turn off th e system.
● It may not be possible to detect objects that are low to the ground.
Directly confirm the safety of your surroundings and, if it see ms the vehicle
may make contact with an obstacle, stop the vehicle by depressi ng the
brake pedal.
● When the other parked vehicle is nar-
row or parked extremely close to the
curb, assist control will also guide the
vehicle to a position close to the curb.
If it seems the vehicle may make con-
tact with the curb or any other obsta-
cles, or if it seems the tire position will
deviate from the intended parking spot,
stop the vehicle by depressing the
brake pedal, and then press the S-IPA

■Function summary
Stop so that the center of the target parking spot appears near ly
perpendicular to the vehicle. If the space is detectable, the f orward
guidance function can be used. Furthermore, depending on the
parking space and other conditions, multi-turn maneuvering assi st
control is also provided if necessary.
Stop so that the center of the
target parking spot appears
nearly perpendicular to the
