Area View

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
→ Special features of Area View
→ Operating Area View
→ Area View function buttons
→ Area View views
Area View helps the driver when parking,
manoeuvering or driving off-road.
The system uses several cameras to create an image which is displayed on the infotainment system display. The cameras are positioned in the
radiator grille, the exterior mirrors and in the boot lid.
WARNING
Using cameras to estimate the distance from obstacles (people, vehicles etc.) is inaccurate and could cause accidents and severe injuries.
Camera lenses enlarge and distort the field of vision and make objects appear different and inaccurate on the screen.
Certain objects, for example narrow posts or railings, may be difficult or impossible to see on the screen because of its low resolution or
poor light conditions.
The cameras have blind spots within which obstacles and people cannot be detected.
Keep the camera lens clean, free of snow and ice and do not cover it.
WARNING
The intelligent Area View technology cannot overcome the laws of physics, and functions only within the limits of the system. Always take care
when using the Area View system as you could otherwise cause accidents or injuries. The system is not a substitute for the full concentration
of the driver.
Adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
Do not allow the images shown on the screen to distract you from the traffic around you.
Always check the area around the vehicle as the cameras will not always detect infants, animals and objects.
The system may not be able to display all areas clearly.
NOTICE
The camera only shows two-dimensional images on the screen. The lack of depth of field means that potholes and protruding objects on the
ground may only be detected with difficulty, or may not be detected at all.
The camera may not always be able to detect objects such as thin bars, fences, posts, trees etc. This can result in damage to your vehicle.
The system displays the auxiliary lines and boxes irrespective of the area surrounding the vehicle. There is no obstacle detection. Drivers
must judge for themselves whether the vehicle will fit into the parking space.
NOTICE
The cameras must be kept clean and free of ice and snow, and must not be covered up by stickers or other objects, as this will prevent the
system from working properly.
