System functions

Measurement of the parking space is performed automatically when driving past at speeds of up to 36 km/h. After the function has been enabled, the CID shows the driver whenever the vehicle drives past a suitable parking space. After starting the parking operation: The driver is instructed by the CID when to reverse, when to brake and when to drive forwards. The parking operation can be performed in one or more sections.

The parking operation will be interrupted in the following cases:

• Maximum parking speed of 10 km/h is exceeded
• Incorrect choice of turn flasher (for example left instead of right)
• Risk of collision with objects while parking (also on the opposite side)
• Steering action by the driver
• A door being opened
• Incorrect choice of gear
• DSC detects slip

Every one of these reasons for termination will be documented in the fault code memory of the PMA control unit with an info' entry. This is therefore not a system fault  but instead an operator error by the driver. After termination, the system checks to find out if the parking operation can be resumed. If necessary, the driver can take charge of the parking operation personally.
