WARNING
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
■
be observed » page 135,
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 185, 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.
It is only a two-dimensional display. Therefore, protruding objects or roadway
■
depressions, for example, may not be recognised due to lack of space depth.
In a crash or damage the vehicle's rear camera can possibly deviate from the
■
correct position. If this is the case, have the sensor checked by a specialist ga-
rage.
