Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Operation
Activation / deactivation
Function keys
Guidelines and roadway
Mode - traverse parking
Mode - parallel parking
Mode - driving up to a trailer / distance monitoring
Mode - monitor the area behind the vehicle
The rear view camera (following only as system) helps the driver when parking
and manoeuvring by displaying the area behind the vehicle in the Infotainment
display (following only as display).
There are four modes available for different situations during the park and ma-
noeuvring action.
WARNING
The system only serves to support and does not relieve the driver of the
■
responsibility for the vehicle operation.
The system detects obstacles. The display of the auxiliary boxes and lines
■
is independent of the actual vehicle environment. The driver must judge for
themselves whether the vehicle can park safely in the selected parking
space.
Make sure that the camera lens is not dirty or covered, otherwise the sys-
■
tem function can be significantly impaired. For information on cleaning
» page 187, Camera lens
CAUTION
The camera lens distorts and enlarges the field of view of the difference in
■
eye sight. The display is therefore only of limited use for estimating distances
to following vehicles.
Some items, such as thin columns, chain link fences or lattice may not be
■
represented adequately in terms of display resolution.
