Parking Aids When a suitable space is found, the touch screen displays a message and a chime sounds. Slow down and stop when the touch screen displays a message and a chime sounds (at approximately position A), then follow the instructions on the touch screen. Note: You must observe that the selected space remains clear of obstructions at all times in the maneuver. Note: Vehicles with overhanging loads (e.g. a bus or a truck), street furniture and other items may not be detected by active park assist. You must make sure the selected space is suitable for parking. Note: The vehicle should be driven as parallel to other vehicles as possible while passing a parking space. Note: The system always offers the last detected parking space (i.e. if the vehicle detects multiple spaces while you are driving, it offers the last one). Note: If driven above approximately 20 mph (35 km/h), the touch screen shows a message to alert you to reduce vehicle speed. Automatic Steering into Parking Space Note: If vehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h), the system switches off and you need to take full control of the vehicle. When you shift the transmission into R (Reverse), with your hands off the wheel (and nothing obstructing its movement), the vehicle steers itself into the space. Instructions to safely move the vehicle back and forward in the space are displayed in the touch screen and indicated by chimes. E130108 When you think the vehicle has enough space in front and behind it, or you hear a solid tone from the parking aid (accompanied by a touch screen display message and a chime), bring the vehicle to a complete stop. 189 MKZ (CC9)
