How to Turn On Parking Assist When It's Off

Method to turn on parking assist when it's off: Press the P button near the gear lever to manually switch it on/off. For vehicles equipped with parking assist function, the system will automatically activate when shifting into reverse gear, and will automatically deactivate when shifting into drive gear and reaching a certain speed. The parking assist function is an auxiliary feature that helps during parking. It uses radars and cameras on the front and rear bumpers to analyze surrounding objects and determine their distance, then displays this information on the central control screen to assist the driver in parking. This function significantly improves convenience for vehicle users and enhances parking safety.
A few days ago when I was driving my friend's new car, I also studied this feature. Most vehicles have the parking assist switch located in the left steering wheel area, marked with a car icon and radar waves. Press it once and the dashboard will display that the assist system is activated. Some higher-end models have this option in the infotainment screen's vehicle settings menu under driver assistance - just check the automatic parking box. Key point: Make sure the gear is in P or N position to operate - last time I couldn't find the switch at all when in D gear. After activation, listen for the prompt tone (a 'dong' sound). If it still doesn't work, it might be a fuse issue, though this is quite rare.
