FORD 2010 Escape Hybrid v.1 - Manual (Page 230)

Automatic Search for Parking Space
To start, press the APA control
switch (on the instrument panel).
The message center will display
ACTIVE PARK SEARCHING. To
designate what side of the street to
search on, use the turn signal. The
arrow symbols >> and << in the
message center indicate on which
side of the vehicle APA will park. (If the turn signal is not on, the system
will automatically search the passenger side.)
For best performance, the driver should drive the vehicle as parallel as
possible while passing a parking space. If driven too fast (above 18 mph
[30 km/h]) for the system to measure parking spaces, the message center
will display ACTIVE PARK REDUCE SPEED.
When the system has found a space, the message center will display
SPACE FOUND PULL FORWARD followed by a chime. Drive forward
until the message center displays SPACE FOUND STOP followed by a
chime. When you stop the vehicle in position to begin parking, the
message center displays REMOVE HANDS PUT IN REVERSE. The driver
should always come to a complete stop before changing gears.
