  • Never attempt to drive while looking only at the screen. There is the risk of hitting an obstacle or causing an unexpected accident.

  • Pay attention to the movement of vehicles and persons in the surrounding area. Parking support is provided by making effective use of the detected path. Pay attention to the movements of oncoming vehicles, following vehicles, and pedestrians when operating parking control.

  • When parking support by ProPILOT Park is no longer necessary, deactivate ProPILOT Park. If ProPILOT Park remains activated, there is the risk of an unexpected accident.

  • Before exiting the vehicle, check that the electric parking brake is activated and that the shift position is in P (Park).

  • Before using ProPILOT Park, check directly to confirm that there is sufficient space around the vehicle for the steering cut backs and other parking operations to be performed.

  • Depending on the circumstances, noise from inside or outside the vehicle may prevent the driver from hearing the warning sound.

  • Operate the turn signal switch during parking control to inform the surroundings of the vehicle moving direction.

  • Do not use ProPILOT Park in the following circumstances:

    • In a location where the traffic is heavy with persons and vehicles

    • In a location where stopping or parking is prohibited

    • In a location that is too narrow for the vehicle to fit
