sensors that scan the area on both sides of
vehicle. When suitable parking space is found
it is shown in the display and you receive
steering instructions for parking in that
space.
When traveling in Canada in a vehicle not
registered in Canada, you must switch off the
radar sensor system (Y page 247). Canadian
law does not permit the use of the radar
sensor system for vehicles from outside of
Canada. When you switch off the radar sensor
system, the following functions are
deactivated:
R
Advanced Parking Guidance

Use the Advanced Parking Guidance for
parking spaces that are
R
parallel to the direction of travel
R
located on straight streets, i.e. not in
curves
R
on the same level as the street, i.e. not on
sidewalks, for example. Flat curbs may
possible not be detected by the Advanced
Parking Guidance.
Parking instructions:
R
On narrow streets, drive by the parking
space as close as possible.

Also observe the Park Assist warning
indicator (Y page 369) while the Advanced
Parking Guidance is active.

How well your vehicle will be parked after
completion of the Advanced Parking
Guidance depends on the position and
shape of the vehicles parked in front of and
behind the parking space as well as the
conditions of the immediate surroundings.
In certain cases, the Advanced Parking
Guidance may guide you too far into the
parking space or not far enough. If this is
the case, cancel the parking procedure
with the Advanced Parking Guidance and
correct the vehicle position yourself.
Detecting a parking space
The Advanced Parking Guidance is active
when driving forward. The system operates at
a vehicle speed of up to 25 mph (40 km/h)
and automatically scans for and measures
potential parking spaces on both sides of the
vehicle. At a vehicle speed of below 10 mph
(16 km/h), you see the white parking space
symbol as a system display in the instrument
cluster. As soon as the Advanced Parking
Guidance has detected a suitable parking
space, the parking space symbol changes to
blue.
