Land Rover Discovery: Park assist limitations
Park assist is a supplement to, and
not a replacement for, good
observation and a safe driving
style. It is the driver's
responsibility, at all times, to
make sure that reversing
manoeuvres are carried out safely.
Park assist may provide inaccurate results
if:
- The size or shape of the parking space
changes after it was measured.
- There is an irregular kerb alongside
the parking space, or the kerb is
covered with leaves, snow, etc.
- The vehicle is being used to transport
a load that extends beyond the
perimeter of the vehicle.
- The vehicle had a repair or alteration
that was not approved by a Retailer/
Authorised Repairer.
- The vehicle has been fitted with
non-approved wheels or tyres, or there
is significant tyre wear.
- One of the parked vehicles has an
attachment at a raised height such as
a flat bed truck, snow plough or cherry
picker.
- The parking space is located on a
corner or curve.
- The sensors are dirty or covered in
mud, ice or snow.
- The weather is foggy, raining or
snowing.
- The road surface is bumpy such as
gravel.
- A tow bar or trailer hitch is fitted.
- A trailer is connected.
Note: If a trailer is connected to a
Jaguar Land Rover approved trailer
socket, the Park assist system will be
disabled.
- It encounters an obstruction that is thin
or wedge shaped.
- It encounters an obstruction that is
elevated and/or protruding, such as
ledges or tree branches.
- It encounters an obstruction with
corners and sharp edges.
PARK ASSIST
TROUBLESHOOTING
Park assist is not searching for a parking
space:
- The system may not be activated.
- The vehicle may be travelling above
30 km/h (18 mph).
- The sensors may be covered or partly
obscured by dirt, mud, ice, or snow.
Park assist does not offer a certain
parking space:
- The sensors may be covered or partly
obscured by dirt, mud, ice, or snow.
- The space may not be large enough,
or there may not be enough space on
the opposite side of the vehicle, for
the front to swing out during the
manoeuvre.
- The vehicle may have been driven
more than 1.5 m from the row of
parked vehicles.
- The vehicle may have been driven
within 41 cm to the row of parked
vehicles.
- The vehicle may have been driven in
reverse. Park assist searches for a
parking space only when the vehicle
is in Drive (D).
- The approach angle may not be
suitable.
Park assist has not positioned the
vehicle accurately within the space:
- One or more of the system limitations
criteria may have been met.

SURROUND CAMERA SYSTEM
It remains the driver's
responsibility to detect obstacles
and estimate the vehicle's
distance from them when
manoeuvring the vehicle.
To switch on the Surround
camera system,
ASL CONTROLS
ASL allows a speed limit to be set that the
driver does not wish to exceed. When a
speed has been set, the engine will
respond normally up to the set speed.
Further accelerator pressure
In certain conditions, such as a
steep gradient, the vehicle's
speed may exceed the set cruising
speed. This is because engine
braking is unable to maintain or
reduce the vehicle's speed. Driver
