Parking Aids

When driving at a speed less than 22 mph (35 km/h) the systemautomatically scans both sides of your vehicle for an available parking space. The system displays a message and a corresponding graphic to indicate it is searching for a parking space. Use the direction indicator to select searching either to the left-hand side or right-hand side of your vehicle. If the direction indicators are not used, the system defaults to the passenger side of your vehicle.

• A foreign object damages or obstructs the front or rear bumper or side sensors. • The correct tire size is not in use on your vehicle (for example, amini-spare tire). Using Active Park Assist - Parallel Parking

E130107 Note: You can also activate the Active Park Assist system after you have already driven partially or completely past a parking space. To do so, press the Active Park button and the system will inform you if you have recently passed a suitable parking space. When the system finds a suitable space, it displays a message and a tone sounds. Stop your vehicle and follow the instructions on the screen. If your vehicle ismoving very slowly, youmay need to pull forward a short distance before the system is ready to park. Note: You must observe that the selected space remains clear of obstructions at all times during the maneuver. Note: You should drive your vehicle within 5 ft (1.5 m) and as parallel as possible to the other vehicles while passing a parking space.

Note: The system always offers the last detected parking space (for example, if your vehicle detects multiple spaces while you are driving, it offers the last one). Note: If driven above approximately 22mph (35 km/h), the system shows a message to alert you to reduce your vehicle speed. Automatic Steering into Parking Space Note: If your vehicle speed exceeds approximately 6 mph (10 km/h) or the maneuver is interrupted (driver input), the system switches off and you need to take full control of your vehicle. When you shift the transmission into reverse (R), with your hands off the wheel (and nothing obstructing its movement), your vehicle steers itself into the space. The system displays instructions to move your vehicle back and forth in the space.
