Detecting a parking space
Active Parking Assist is switched on
automatically when driving forwards. The
system is operational at speeds of up to
approximately 22 mph (35 km/h). While in
operation, the system independently locates
and measures parking spaces on both sides
of the vehicle. When driving at speeds below
19 mph (30 km/h), you will see the parking
symbol as a status indicator in the instrument
cluster. By default, Active Parking Assist only
displays parking spaces on the frontpassenger
side. Parking spaces on the
driver's side are displayed as soon as the turn
signal on the driver's side is activated. If you
wish to park in a space on the driver's side,
the indicator on the driver's side must remain
on. This must remain switched on until you
acknowledge the use of Active Parking Assist
by pressing the 
button on the
multifunction steering wheel.
When a parking space has been detected, an arrow towards the right or the left also appears.

spaces:
- that are parallel to the direction of travel
- at least 59 in (1.5 m) wide
- at least 51 in (1.3 m) longer than your vehicle
A parking space will be displayed to you as you drive by until you are approximately 50 ft (15 m) away from it.
