Introduction

Park Assist (Park Assist Plus) with memory function helps drivers to park in parking spaces they frequently use, e.g. garages and driveways. The vehicle automatically maneuvers toward a parking space on a previously saved vehicle path.

The availability of Park Assist Plus with memory function depends on the vehicle equipment.

System function

Park Assist Plus with memory function is an extension of Park Assist( Park Assist Plus).

The parking system uses the front camera to detect the surrounding area and saves the vehicle path to the parking space over a maximum distance of approx. 50 m (approx. 164 ft). Once the parking process has been saved in the Infotainment system, the vehicle can automatically drive the route to or from the parking space.

The driver should continuously monitor the area surrounding the vehicle→ .

Automatic braking support may intervene if there are obstacles in the vehicle's path or in dangerous situations.

Automatic, hands-free parking with Park Assist Plus with memory function may be prohibited or limited in some regions. Use Park Assist Plus with memory function only where permitted by legal provisions.

Requirements

✓ There are geocoordinates available for the vehicle position.

✓ There is enough space to maneuver in. The vehicle may need to move a few meters to reach the calibrated vehicle path.
