Conditions in which the system may not work:
• Something passes between the front bumper and the space such as a
pedestrian or cyclist
• The edge of the neighboring parked vehicle is high from the ground
such as a bus, tow truck or flatbed truck
Automatic search for parking space
To start, press the APA control
switch (on the console in front of
the gearshift). The message center
will display ACTIVE PARK
SEARCHING. To designate what
side of the street to search on, use
the turn signal. The arrow symbols
>> and << in the message center
indicate on which side of the vehicle
APA will park. (If the turn signal is
not on, the system will automatically
search the passenger side.)
For best performance, the driver should drive the vehicle as parallel as
possible while passing a parking space. If driven too fast (above 18 mph
[30 km/h]) for the system to measure parking spaces, the message center
will display ACTIVE PARK REDUCE SPEED.
When the system has found a space, the message center will display
SPACE FOUND PULL FORWARD followed by a chime. Drive forward
until the message center displays SPACE FOUND STOP followed by a
chime. When you stop the vehicle in position to begin parking, the
message center displays REMOVE HANDS PUT IN REVERSE. The driver
should always come to a complete stop before changing gears.
