ADVANCED PARKING GUIDANCE SYSTEM - Parallel parking assist mode Parallel parking assist mode assists the driver with parallel parking by automatically controlling the steering wheel when backing up, in order to park in the target position set on the screen. CAUTION D When backing up, be sure to check your surroundings and behind the vehicle for safety, and back up slowly, depressing the brake pedal to control vehicle speed. D If you seem likely to hit nearby vehicles, obstacles or people, depress the brake pedal to stop the vehicle, then disable the system by touching on the screen. As the system only assists with parking in a set target parking position, there are times when the system will be unable to render this assistance, depending on factors such as road surface or vehicle condition, or the distance to the set target parking position. Use the system with full understanding of the fact. If a message is displayed while maneuvering, follow the procedures outlined in " - What to do when this sort of message is displayed" on page 316. The illustrations here describe the procedure for pulling into a parking space on the right. For pulling into a parking space on the left, substitute left for right and vice versa in all steps. D When any part of the vehicle sags due to the number of passengers or the distribution of the load, there is a margin of error between the set target parking position on the screen and the actual distance/ course on the road. 297
