1. A parking assist apparatus for guiding a vehicle toward a target parking position, comprising:
- target parking position setting means for setting the target parking position in accordance with an operation applied to a target parking position designation display that is displayed on a screen showing a periphery of said vehicle; and
cancellation condition determining means for determining whether a cancellation condition of canceling a guidance of said vehicle toward the target parking position is established,wherein;
said target parking position setting means is capable of setting an absolute position represented by a target parking position information held by a memory holding means as a new target parking position;
said memory holding means is adapted to continuously hold said target parking position information regarding the absolute position of the target parking position set by said target parking position setting means after the cancellation condition is established;
characterized by the parking assist apparatus further comprising;
path computation determining means adapted to determine, in a state where the cancellation condition is established and the guidance of said vehicle is stopped and said vehicle is stopped at a stop position, whether or not a path from the stop position to the absolute position is defined by computation; and
screen controlling means adapted to shift the screen to an initial screen when the path is not defined by computation, and to a setting screen for setting the target parking position when the path is defined by computation.

Abstract
A parking assist apparatus performs a guidance of a vehicle toward a target parking position, even after the guidance has been canceled. The target parking position is set in accordance with an operation applied to a target parking position designation display that is displayed on a screen showing a periphery of the vehicle. It is determined whether a cancellation condition of canceling the guidance of the vehicle toward the target parking position is established. A memory continuously holds target parking position information even after the cancellation condition is established.
