Abstract
The invention relates to an apparatus for assisting a parking-space entry operation of a vehicle, comprising a back-up camera for acquiring a back-up image reproducing the space behind the vehicle, and comprising a screen for displaying the back-up image, a decision mark for a first steering input of the parking-space entry operation, which mark is to be brought into coincidence with at least a part of a boundary of a parking space, being depictable on the screen in superimposition with the back-up image. To assist entry into tight parking spaces, it is proposed that multiple decision marks for the first steering input be depictable simultaneously on the screen, which marks correspond respectively to a different minimum number of turns to be performed for the parking-space entry operation.
