MINI how-to guide: This is how you record a manoeuvre using the Manoeuvre Assistant in your MINI with Operating System 9.

The Manoeuvre Assistant in your MINI with Operating System 9 supports you in recurring parking and manoeuvring situations. You can record up to ten parking and manoeuvring actions and then have the system carry them out automatically. When your MINI reaches the activation area on the route of a stored manoeuvre, you will be able to activate the manoeuvre on the MINI Interaction Unit. After activation, the system takes over the vehicle control and executes the manoeuvre automatically.

Requirements:

  • Your MINI with Operating System 9 requires the option "Parking Assistant Professional" (SA 5DW).
  • The one-time calibration process of the camera after delivery of the vehicle must be completed.

Important notes:

  • The system uses your vehicle's cameras and ultrasonic sensors.
  • You can record up to ten manoeuvres at different locations.
  • You can record up to four overlapping manoeuvres.
  • A distance must be between 6 m and 200 m long.
  • The system can record a total distance of approx. 600 m.
  • You can also carry out recorded manoeuvres using the "Remote Control Parking" function in the MINI App.
  • The system does not relieve you from your responsibility to assess the traffic situation correctly. Due to system limits, the system cannot react appropriately in all traffic situations. There is risk of accident, danger of injury and danger of property damage. Adapt your driving style to the traffic conditions, observe the traffic situation and remain ready to steer and brake at all times so that you can actively intervene if necessary.

System limits:

  • The system limits of the parking assistance systems, the cameras and the ultrasonic sensors apply.
  • Functional limitations may occur, e.g. in the following situations:
    • With poor mobile connection.
    • On steep inclines or downhill gradients.
    • For recorded manoeuvres where the required minimum distance to objects cannot be maintained.

Depending on the country of delivery and equipment of your MINI, the availability and the range of functions may vary.

Step 1:

First drive your MINI to the starting point from which you want to record a manoeuvre and stop.

 

Step 2:

Press the Parking Assist button in the centre console control panel.

 

Step 3:
Select "Record new route" in the lower toolbar on the MINI Interaction Unit.

 

Step 4:
Drive your vehicle to the desired end position at a maximum speed of approx. 15 km/h.


Step 5:
Stop and select "Save recording" in the lower toolbar.

 

Step 6:

Select one of the suggested names for the recorded manoeuvre and confirm with "Save recording".

Do not move your vehicle until the recording has been successfully saved.


Note: To delete or rename a stored manoeuvre, press the direct access button "Driving settings menu" in the control centre and select: "Driver assistance" > "Parking" > "Recorded routes".
