BMW 5 Series: Remote Control Parking

The Remote Control Parking assistant became available for the first time in the G12. This assistance system enables the vehicle to be maneuvered in and out of a parking space remotely using the BMW display key. The system assists the driver to park in tight parking bays or enclosed spaces (such as garages or in multi-story car parks), where it is difficult for the driver to get in and out of the vehicle.

Automatic parking in and reversing out of bay parking spaces is possible by activating the "remote- controlled parking" function on the display key.

The Remote Control Parking, optional equipment (OE 5DV), is only available for certain models and national-market versions. In addition, the assistance system can only be ordered in conjunction with the following equipment:

  • Steptronic sport transmission (OE 2TB)
  • Comfort Access (OE 322)
  • BMW display key (OE 3DS)
  • Parking Assistant Plus (OE 5DN)
  • Professional navigation system (OE 609)

The entire parking procedure is monitored by the Park Distance Control and Parking Maneuvering Assistant ultrasonic sensors and the Surround View cameras within their system limits. The driver is outside the vehicle while it is being parked. He must, however, check the situation around the vehicle by looking around and can cancel the parking procedure at any time using the BMW display key. If the driver leaves the operating range, the vehicle stops automatically.
