Park Pilot Assist

Updated 09/06/2023

Park Pilot Assist can help you manoeuvre in and out of parking spaces.

When active, Park Pilot Assist controls the car with high precision, allowing you to park in parking spaces. It works for both parallel and perpendicular parking, as well as when leaving a parallel parking space. Park Pilot Assist controls steering, acceleration and braking during the manoeuvre.

Important

Read everything

Read all information about the function before using it. It is important to know its proper use and limitations.

Detection of surroundings

Park Pilot Assist relies on the car's ability to detect its surroundings. It primarily uses information from cameras and parking sensors.

Parking in a parking space

You can use Park Pilot Assist during parallel and perpendicular parking. When you activate Park Pilot Assist, it identifies available spaces close to the car and presents them in the display. After selecting a space to park in, supervise the manoeuvre and follow any instructions provided in the display.

Leaving a parking space

You can use Park Pilot Assist to manoeuvre out of a parallel parking space, if you have used Park Pilot Assist to park there. When you activate Park Pilot Assist, the car suggests an exit path. After confirming the path, supervise the manoeuvre and follow any instructions provided in the display.

Warning

Pay attention

When using Park Pilot Assist, you must keep the same level of attention to your surroundings as if parking without assistance. Immediately take full control of the car if necessary.

Driver responsibility

The driver is always responsible for driving safely and in accordance with traffic rules and regulations. Park Pilot Assist is not a substitution for the driver's attention and judgement.

Limitations

Park Pilot Assist cannot handle all traffic, weather and road conditions. Read the separate manual section covering detection of car surroundings and traffic before using features that rely on these capabilities.

Stopping Park Pilot Assist

You can always stop an ongoing manoeuvre. Depending on how you do it, Park Pilot Assist either pauses or ends the manoeuvre.

There are several reasons to stop an ongoing Park Pilot Assist manoeuvre, such as:

You want to take over and complete the manoeuvre on your own.
The current placement is good and you don't need it to continue.
You want it to stop for safety reasons.

You can exit Park Pilot Assist in different ways. For example, you can:

Press cancel in the display.
Start steering manually.
Press the accelerator or brake pedal.
Change gear.

Conditions and limitations

Certain events and conditions can prevent activation or pause Park Pilot Assist if they occur during the manoeuvre. Examples include:

An obstacle is detected in the parking path.
A camera becomes obscured.
The boot, bonnet or a door is opened.
The wing mirrors are folded in.
The driver's seatbelt is unbuckled.

Park Pilot Assist can resume the manoeuvre when the condition no longer applies. You can also choose to exit Park Pilot Assist and complete the manoeuvre without using it.

Note

Towbar

If you have a towbar installed, some of the parking assistance features might be affected or unavailable.
