How large must a parking space be for the Automatic Park Assistant in my BMW to detect it?

Suitable parking space:

Longitudinal parking:

▷ Minimum length of a detected object, e.g., a parking vehicle: approx. 3 ft/1 m.

▷ Minimum length of gap between two objects: own vehicle length plus approx. 2.6 ft/0.8 m.

▷ Minimum depth: approx. 5 ft/1.5 m.

Perpendicular parking: 

▷ Minimum length of a detected object, e.g., a parking vehicle: approx. 3 ft/1 m.

▷ Minimum width of the gap: own vehicle width plus approx. 2.3 ft/0.7 m.

▷ Minimum depth: own vehicle length. The depth of perpendicular parking spaces must be estimated by the driver. Due to technical limitations, the system is only able to approximate the depth of perpendicular parking spaces.
