Abstract
A vehicle system for selecting and displaying a pulling out mode includes a memory for storing predetermined pulling out modes, each pulling out mode stored in association with one or more corresponding parking modes, the pulling out modes indicating manners of pulling a vehicle out of a parking space in accordance with the parking modes. The system further includes a unit that determines a parking mode, a detector for detecting an instruction from a driver, and a selection and display unit for determining a subset of the pulling out modes for displaying as choices for selection by the operator. The system determines a parking mode not only when a vehicle is parked with automatic steering but also when the vehicle is parked with manual steering. By only displaying an appropriate pulling out mode corresponding to a parking mode, selecting an inappropriate pulling out mode can be avoided.
