around you, carefully start accelerating up to
no more than 7 km/h (4 mph). During the
parking manoeuvre, the system only takes
charge of the steering. You, as the driver,
have to accelerate, engage the clutch if
necessary, change gears and brake.

Move forward until the continuous ParkPilot

For best results, wait at the end of each
manoeuvre until the Park Assist system has
finished turning the steering wheel. The park-
ing manoeuvre ends when a corresponding
message is displayed on the instrument pan-
el and, in some cases, an acoustic signal
sounds.

during parking, the result may not be the
best.
