WARNING
When you maneuver out of a parking space, there is a danger of pulling into moving traffic. Accidents and serious or fatal injuries may occur.
Only drive the vehicle out of the parking space when the traffic situation allows it.
WARNING
Park Assist Plus does not support pulling out of perpendicular parking spaces because obstacles in road traffic cannot be detected fully. There is a risk of
accidents and serious injuries.
Pull out of a perpendicular parking space yourself and pay attention to the traffic situation.
The lane shown on the Infotainment system during a parking process is a general example. It does not correspond to the actual parking process with Park

Park Assist Plus with memory function
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.
Driving with a trailer
Park Assist Plus with memory function cannot be activated if a trailer is connected to the electrical system.
If the trailer hitch was not installed at the factory, Park Assist Plus with memory function must be manually deactivated when towing a trailer.

WARNING
Park Assist Plus with memory function is not a replacement for the driver's attention and works only within the system limitations. Park Assist Plus with memory
function cannot detect all driving situations and may not react, or may react with a delay, or may react in a way that is not desired. If you are careless, there is a
risk of accidents, serious injuries and death.
Always stay attentive and do not rely solely on the system. The driver is always responsible for control of the vehicle.
Only drive the vehicle into the parking space if you possess a valid driving license.
Abide by the traffic regulations in the relevant country.
Do not leave the driver seat during the parking process.
Pay close attention to the parking process and the traffic.
In a hazardous situation, apply the brakes using the brake pedal.
Do not use Park Assist with memory function for parking spaces which do not have structural boundaries, e.g. near the water's edge or near inclines with
no structural separation.
WARNING
The system only has limited reactions to quickly changing environmental conditions. This can result in collisions with other road users, damage to the vehicle
and serious or fatal injuries.
Do not use Park Assist Plus in flowing traffic at speeds of more than 80 km/h (50 mph).
Always maintain a distance of at least one vehicle's length from junctions.
Do not park on the opposite side of the road or across several lanes.
WARNING
During automatic parking, the vehicle may swing out or turn into oncoming traffic. This may lead to vehicle damage and serious or fatal injuries.
Pay close attention to the parking process and the traffic and brake the vehicle if necessary.
WARNING
If the road is icy, the parking process cannot be properly carried out and the vehicle may slide away. This may lead to accidents resulting vehicle damage and
serious injuries.
Do not use Park Assist Plus with memory function to park on slippery or icy roads.
Park Assist Plus may not be available in some regions of the same country.
Pay attention to the display in the Infotainment system.
