The automatic parallel parking feature is a great addition to your BMW 1 Series. To enable this feature, you first need to make sure your vehicle is equipped with Parking Assistant. Once you have confirmed this, simply press the button labeled 'P' on your center console or use the iDrive controller to navigate through the menu and select 'PARKING ASSISTANT'. This will bring up a prompt on your screen to activate the feature.

I've had the same question and I found out that the automatic parallel parking feature is only available on certain trim levels of the BMW 1 Series. Make sure you check your vehicle's specifications to ensure it has this feature before attempting to use it.
