Steps for the automatic parking function in the BMW X3: 1. Press the AUTOH button below the gear shift, and the light above it will illuminate; 2. When waiting at a red light, step on the brake, and then you can move your foot away. When the light turns green, step on the accelerator. The AUTOH function is not enabled by default and requires the driver to manually activate it. The BMW X3 is an SUV model that introduces the new SUV Sports Activity Vehicle concept and is equipped with BMW's patented xDrive intelligent all-wheel-drive system. It combines the distinctive proportions of a Sports Activity Vehicle with classic and innovative design. The vehicle features a fresh and youthful exterior while also emphasizing the design characteristics of the BMW brand, presenting a robust and powerful appearance. Additionally, the interior of the BMW X3 can accommodate five people, along with a large amount of luggage or sports equipment, providing greater convenience for travel.

I've been driving the BMW X3 for a while now, and the automatic parking feature is quite considerate. After starting the car, press the parking assist button on the center console—the one with the P icon lights up to indicate activation. Drive slowly, keeping the speed below 35 km/h, and the system will use sensors to scan for roadside parking spaces. When a vacant spot is detected, a prompt will appear on the screen, allowing you to choose between parallel or vertical parking. After confirming, stop the car, shift into reverse, and the steering wheel will turn automatically—all I need to do is lightly press the brake to control the speed and avoid collisions. The whole process takes just a few seconds, with an audible alert signaling completion. Remember to keep the sensors clean—avoid trying it in muddy conditions—and it's best to practice in an open area first. This feature makes parking effortless, especially after a tiring day at work—it's incredibly practical.

From the perspective of automotive systems, the BMW X3's automatic parking operation logic is clear: first press the parking button to activate the system, then drive at low speed to allow the radar to detect the parking space width. If a suitable position is found, the driver stops and selects the gear, and the system takes over the steering wheel, with the driver only needing to manage the brake and throttle rhythm. Note that the speed should be controlled within the range of 20-35 km/h, as sensor accuracy may decrease in poor lighting conditions. Upon completion, the system automatically reminds you that the vehicle is parked, with related functions including a reversing camera to assist visibility. Ensure to check tire pressure and body cleanliness before use to avoid interference. The safety tip is not to leave the driver's seat throughout the process.

I'm used to using the automatic parking feature in my BMW X3, with the following steps: Press the parking button to activate, drive slowly to let the system find a parking spot and prompt the position. After stopping, shift into reverse gear, it controls the steering while I manage the speed with the brake. Simple and efficient for daily parking. Remember to maintain low speed and stay focused.
