9-48 Driving and Operating
Automatic Parking
Assist (APA)
If equipped, Automatic Parking
Assist (APA) searches for and
steers the vehicle into parallel
parking spots. When using APA,
you must still shift gears, and
control the brakes and accelerator.
The Driver information Center (DIC)
and audible beeps help to guide
parking maneuvers.

Warning
APA does not apply the brakes.
APA may not detect objects in the
parking space, objects that are
soft or narrow, objects high off the
ground such as flatbed trucks,
or objects below ground level
such as large potholes. Always
verify that the parking space is
appropriate for parking a vehicle.
APA does not respond to changes
in the parking space, such as
movement of an adjacent vehicle,
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
or a person or object entering the
parking space. APA does not
detect or avoid traffic that is
behind or alongside of the
vehicle. Always be prepared to
stop the vehicle during the
parking maneuver.
The system is available when the
vehicle speed is below
30 km/h (18 mph). Press the APA
button,
O, to enable the system to
begin searching for a space that is
large enough to park. The system
cannot detect whether it is a legal
parking space.
APA searches for parking spaces to
the right of the vehicle. To search for
a parking space to the left, turn on
the left turn signal.
After completely passing a large
enough space, an audible beep
occurs and a red symbol displays in
the DIC.
If the vehicle is in R (Reverse), but
does not steer into the expected
space, this may be because the
system is maneuvering the vehicle
into a previously detected space.
The APA system does not need
service.
