· Ultrasonic sensors on the sides and front and rear bumpersof the vehicle‘search’ for parking spaces on either side of the road that are big enough to parallel park your vehicle.

· Sensors search within 1.5 metres when you travel at speeds of up to 30kmh.

· The sensors are always passively scanning spaces, so if you activate the system after you’ve just passed a good parking spot, it will let you know.

· When the right-size space is found, you’ll hear an alert and instructions will appear on your display screen telling you where to position the vehicle to begin the park.

· In narrow streets, the system detects and rejects spaces where the turn required to park could cause a collision with vehicles on the opposite side of the street.

· A combination of your vehicle’s EPAS (electric power-assisted steering) and sensors are used to steer the vehicle safely and perfectly into place at speeds of up to 10kmh.

· Take your hands off the steering wheel and just work the forward and reverse gears, accelerator and brake.

· You can take control of the park at any time by taking hold of the steering wheel.
