Active Parking Assist
Function of Active Parking Assist
%
In the LOW RANGE off-road gear, or if the
differential locks are engaged, Active Parking
Assist is not available.
Active Parking Assist is an electronic parking
assistance system which uses ultrasound and is
automatically activated during forward travel.
The system is operational at speeds of up to
approximately 22 mph (35 km/h). When all the
conditions are fulfilled, the c symbol appears
in the multifunction display in the instrument
cluster and the system automatically searches
for and measures parking spaces on both sides
of the vehicle parallel and perpendicular to the
direction of travel. If Active Parking Assist is acti‐
vated, suitable parking spaces are shown in the
display of the multimedia system. The ë sym‐
bol appears in the display of the multimedia sys‐
tem. The arrows show on which side of the road‐
way free parking spaces are located.
The parking space and, if necessary, the parking
direction can be selected as desired. Active
Parking Assist calculates a suitable vehicle path
and assists you in parking and exiting the park‐
ing space.
Active Parking Assist provides assistance when
changing gear, accelerating, braking and steer‐
ing the vehicle.
Active Parking Assist is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for your attention to the surroundings.
The responsibility for safe maneuvering and
parking remains with you. Make sure that no
persons, animals or objects etc. are in the
maneuvering range.
Active Parking Assist is canceled if, among other
things, one of the following actions is carried

System limits
Objects located above or below the detection
range of Active Parking Assist are not detected
when the parking space is being measured.
These are also not taken into account when the
parking maneuver is calculated, e.g. overhanging
loads, overhangs or loading ramps of trucks or
the boundaries of parking spaces. In some cir‐
cumstances, Active Parking Assist may therefore
guide you into the parking space prematurely.
When the differential locks are engaged, Active
Parking Assist does not function.
