What is the automatic parking button icon?
2 Answers
It is a steering wheel symbol with the letter "P" written on the left side of the steering wheel, indicating automatic parking. Here is the relevant introduction: 1. Introduction: Automatic parking means that the system can automatically help the driver park the vehicle without manual intervention. It is a very convenient configuration for drivers. 2. Principle of automatic parking: The principle of automatic parking is to use radar probes around the vehicle to measure the distance and angle between the vehicle and surrounding objects, and then the onboard computer calculates the operation process and adjusts the steering wheel rotation in coordination with the vehicle speed. The driver only needs to control the vehicle speed. Automatic parking technology helps solve some parking and traffic problems in densely populated urban areas, and drivers no longer have to worry about poor parking due to lack of skill.
In my years of driving experience, the automatic parking button icon is usually a letter P with a small radar wave or arrow pattern, prominently placed near the steering wheel or on the center console. It's designed this way so drivers can instantly recognize it as parking-related and avoid confusing it with other function buttons. After pressing it, the screen will display guided steps, and the vehicle will automatically detect a parking space to help you reverse into it. However, I must remind you to ensure the road conditions are safe when using it—for example, park on level ground and avoid using it on slopes, as the system can sometimes misjudge. The icons don’t vary much between brands, but their positions might differ slightly. I recommend testing it a few times when you get a new car to get used to it and avoid mishandling. Overall, this button is a convenient assistive tool, but don’t rely on it too much. Always keep your eyes on the road during parking—safe driving ultimately depends on you.
