Land Rover Discovery: Park assist
Park assist is an aid to manoeuvring the
vehicle in and out of parking spaces and
parking bays. Park assist takes control of
the vehicle's steering system to
manoeuvre the vehicle.
The driver must maintain full control
of the accelerator and brakes
throughout any Park assist
manoeuvre.
Note: A Park assist manoeuvre can be
cancelled, at any point, by holding/turning
the steering wheel, or by pressing the Park
assist button.
Park assist comprises three different
features:
- Parallel parking: For reversing into a
parking space that is parallel to the
vehicle.
- Perpendicular parking: For reversing
into a parking space that is at a 90º
angle to the vehicle.
- Parking exit: For exiting a parallel
parking space.
All Park assist instructions are displayed
in the Message centre.
- Park assist sensors may not detect
moving objects, such as children
and animals, until they are
dangerously close. Always use
extreme caution when
manoeuvring, and always use your
mirrors.
- Park assist is a driving aid only. It
remains the driver's responsibility
to drive with due care and
attention during parking
manoeuvres.
Park assist sensors may not detect
some obstructions, for example,
narrow posts, small objects close to
the ground, mesh fences and, in
some circumstances, bicycles or
motorbikes parked alongside the
kerb.
All sensors must be kept clean and
free from debris or obstructions, for
example, leaves, mud, snow, ice,
frost, or insects. Failure to keep the
sensors clean may result in sensor
miscalculation or false indications.
Park assist must not be used if any
of the following conditions exist:
- A temporary spare wheel is in use.
- A sensor is damaged, or the
bumper is damaged sufficiently
enough to affect a sensor mounting
point.
- A sensor is obstructed by items
attached to the vehicle, for
example, bumper covers, a bicycle
rack, a trailer, or stickers.
- The vehicle is being used to
transport a load that extends
beyond the vehicle's perimeter.
Note: All of the doors and the tailgate
must be securely closed when using Park
assist.
Note: During any Park assist manoeuvre,
the Parking aid system will remain active,
and will sound when objects are detected
close to the vehicle.
