Touch the function button for mode 2 on the infotainment system screen. When switching to mode 2, the auxiliary boxes are displayed
for both sides parallel to the road.
Activate the turn signal for the side of the street on which you want to park. Once the turn signal is activated, the auxiliary boxes which
are not required disappear from the display.
Drive past the parking space slowly.
Position the vehicle at a distance of approximately one metre parallel to the parking row, ensuring that the auxiliary boxes displayed on
the screen completely cover any obstacles ② . The area between the auxiliary boxes must be clear of any obstacles. Recommendation:
if available, orient yourself by the front boundary/vehicle, i.e. the parking vehicle must be contained entirely by the yellow auxiliary box.
Depress the brake pedal and stop the vehicle.
Engage reverse gear. Your vehicle is represented by a red trapezium. If obstacles protrude beyond the auxiliary boxes, the parking
space may be too small, or your vehicle may not be positioned correctly. If required, look for a new parking space or reposition the
vehicle.
Turn the steering wheel until the red trapezium is positioned between the auxiliary boxes and is highlighted in green. You can use the
available parking zone marking to position the green trapezium. Keep the steering wheel fixed in this position. The steering wheel
symbol on the lower right-hand edge of the screen shows the driver the required steering throughout the parking procedure.
Keeping the steering wheel in the same position, reverse slowly until the stop sign appears. OR: until the curved green lateral line
corresponds to the side limit of the parking space, e.g. the kerb ③. An arrow indicates the remaining distance to be covered, based on
the number of segments shown in the arrow.
Observe the following message: Look! Safe to move? .
Stop the vehicle and turn the steering wheel as far as it will go in the opposite direction until the direction arrow is no longer shown
above the steering wheel symbol.
Reverse slowly without changing the current steering input. The horizontal green lines will be displayed.
Continue to reverse slowly until the stop sign appears. OR: at the very latest, stop the vehicle when the red line reaches the rear limit,
e.g. the stationary vehicle ②. If necessary, align the vehicle parallel to the roadway.

Trailer support (mode 3) and crossing traffic (mode 4)

Fig. 185 Rear view camera system display: trailer support
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings

Trailer support

In vehicles with a factory-fitted towing bracket, the trailer support function can be used when approaching a trailer drawbar. The powerful zoom
level used in this mode means that obstacles behind the vehicle appear very late. This mode therefore requires the driver to pay very careful
attention.
The horizontal red orientation line shown on the screen is level with the towing bracket. The semi-circular green and red orientation lines indicate
the distance from the towing bracket. The distance between each green auxiliary line, and between these lines and the red auxiliary line, is
approximately 0.1 m. The orange line indicates the predicted path of the towing bracket, depending on the steering angle.

Crossing traffic

The area in front of or behind the vehicle, and the side areas, are displayed as a fish-eye diagram. Mode 4 (crossing traffic) helps the driver to
monitor traffic behind the vehicle and can be used in situations such as driving out of a garage or exiting from a narrow space.
