Park Assist Pilot
When active, Park Assist Pilot controls the car with high precision, allowing you to park in tight spaces. It's capable of both parking in and leaving a parallel parking space.
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 Assist Pilot relies on the car's ability to detect its surroundings. It primarily uses information from cameras and parking sensors.
During Park Assist Pilot manoeuvres
Your car controls acceleration, braking and steering during parking manoeuvres. Even though Park Assist Pilot takes over the driving-related tasks of parking, you must still monitor the feature and its manoeuvres. This means that as long as you agree with what Park Assist Pilot is doing, you don't need to do anything to speed up, slow down or steer your car. However, you should always be ready to retake control of parking if you feel you need to.
Parking in a parking space
You can use Park Assist Pilot during parallel or perpendicular parking. When you activate Park Assist Pilot, it identifies available spaces close to the car and presents one of them in the centre display. After confirming the suggested space to park in, you can let go of the steering wheel and start the parking manoeuvre by lightly tapping the brake pedal once. Your car then controls steering, braking and acceleration to park. Supervise the manoeuvre and follow any instructions provided in the centre display.
Leaving a parking space
You can use Park Assist Pilot to manoeuvre out of a parallel parking space. When you activate Park Assist Pilot, the car suggests an exit direction. After confirming the exit direction, you can let go of the steering wheel and lightly tap the brake pedal to start the Park Assist Pilot manoeuvre. Your car then controls steering, braking and acceleration to leave the parking space. Supervise the manoeuvre and follow any instructions provided in the centre display.
Warning
Pay attention
When using Park Assist Pilot, 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 Assist Pilot is not a substitution for the driver's attention and judgement.
Limitations
Park Assist Pilot 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 Assist Pilot
You can always stop an ongoing manoeuvre. Depending on how you do it, Park Assist Pilot either pauses or ends the manoeuvre.

Note
Conditions and limitations
