The Smart Parking Assist System
helps drivers park their vehicle by
using sensors to measure parallel
parking spaces, control the steering
wheel to semi-automatically park the
vehicle and provide instruction on
the LCD display to help through
parking.
✽✽
NOTICE
The vehicle will not stop for pedes- trians or objects that may be in its
path, so the driver must monitor
the manoeuvre.
Use the system only in parking lots and places used for parking.
The system does not work if there is no car parked in front of the park-
ing space you are planning to park
or if it is a diagonal parking space.
After parking your vehicle using the system, the vehicle may not be
parked at the exact spot you have
wished. For example, the space
between your vehicle and wall may
not be the distance you have desired.
Deactivate the system and park your vehicle manually, when the sit-
uation requires parking manually.
The Parking Assist System's front and rear warning sound activates
when the Smart Parking Assist
System is activated.
After searching for a parking space is completed, the Smart
Parking Assist System will be can-
celled if the Parking Assist System
is cancelled by pressing the button
to the OFF position.
