Abstract

In a method for assisted parking of a vehicle in a parking space with the aid of a parking-assistance device which guides the vehicle along parking trajectory, the vehicle is guided along a first segment of the parking trajectory up to an intermediate point which is determined in such a way that it is possible to pull the vehicle into either a parallel or a diagonal parking space, and it is identified whether the parking space is a parallel or a diagonal parking space. The vehicle is guided along a second segment of the parking trajectory which is selected depending upon whether the parking space is a parallel or a diagonal parking space.
