The surround view camera is a system that con-
sists of four cameras. The cameras cover the
immediate vehicle surroundings. The system
assists you when you are parking or at exits with
reduced visibility, for example.
The views of the surround view camera are always
available when driving forwards up to a speed of
approx. 10 mph (16 km/h) and when backing up.
The surround view camera is only an aid and may
show a distorted view of obstacles, show them
incorrectly or not show them at all. It is not a sub-
stitute for your attention to the surroundings. The
responsibility for safe maneuvering and parking
remains with you. Make sure that there are no
persons, animals or objects etc., in the maneuver-
ing area while maneuvering and parking.
