Automatic Steering into Parking Space

Note: If vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), the system turns off
and you need to take full control of the vehicle.

Note: If a maneuver is interrupted before completion, the system turns
off and you need to full take control of the vehicle. In some instances
after an interruption a message may appear that would allow you to
resume the maneuver.

With hands off the wheel (and nothing obstructing its movement) and
the transmission in R (Reverse), the vehicle steers itself as instructions
to safely move the vehicle back and forward in the space are displayed in
the touch screen. While reversing, the touch screen displays a message
instructing the driver to check their surroundings (for safety reasons)
and to back-up slowly, accompanied by a corresponding graphic.

When you think your vehicle has enough space in front and behind it, or
you hear a solid tone from the parking aid (accompanied by a touchscreen
display message and a chime), bring your vehicle to a complete stop.

When automatic steering is finished, the touch screen displays a message
indicating that the active park assist process is done. The driver is
responsible for checking the parking job and making any necessary
corrections before putting the transmission in P (Park).
