Park Assist
This system provides active assistance with parking, detecting a parking space then controlling the steering to park in the space. It controls the steering while the driver manages the accelerator, brakes, gears andclutch (manual gearbox). During phases of entry into and exit from a parking space, the system provides visual and audible information
to the driver in order to make the manoeuvres safe. It may be necessary to move for wards and backwards more than once.
During a manoeuvre the steering wheelturns quickly: do not hold the steeringwheel, do not place your hand between
the spokes of the steering wheel and take care with loose and bulky clothing, scarves, handbags... There is a risk of injury.

ystem provides assistance for
the following manoeuvres:


- entr
y into a parallel parking space

- exitin
g from a parallel parking space

- ba
y parking
