The operation and functionality of the
Advanced Parking Guidance can be
affected or impaired by dirty sensors,
especially at times of snow and ice.
Make sure that the area on the bumpers
around the sensors is free of dirt, ice and/
or slush, otherwise Advanced Parking
Guidance may not function properly.
The Advanced Parking Guidance is an
electronic parking aid equipped with radar
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 253). 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:

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.
