Object detection
The reversing camera helps detect moving
and stationary objects. If an object (person,
vehicle or other obstacle) is detected, this
object is marked with a bar. Objects located
some distance away from the vehicle are
marked with a yellow bar. If the distance to
the object is very small, the bar is displayed in
red.
Object detection only works in wide-angle
mode.
In order to use the function, it must be
switched on in Audio 20 or COMAND Online
(see the Digital Owner's Manual).
360° camera
General notes
The 360° camera is a camera system that
consists of four cameras.
The system evaluates images from the fol-
lowing cameras:
reversing camera
R
front camera
R
two side cameras in the exterior mirrors
R
The cameras cover the immediate surround-
ings of the vehicle. The system assists you,
e.g. when parking or at exits with reduced
visibility.
You can show pictures from the 360° camera
in full-screen mode or in seven different split-
screen views on the Audio 20 or COMAND
display. A split-screen view also includes a
top view of the vehicle. This view is calculated
from the data supplied by the installed cam-
eras (virtual camera).
The seven split-screen views are:
top view and image from the reversing cam-
R
era (130° viewing angle)
top view and image from the front camera
R
(130° viewing angle without displaying the
maximum steering wheel angle)
top view and enlarged rear view
R
top view and enlarged front view
R
top view and trailer view (vehicles with
R
trailer tow hitch)
top view and images from the rear-facing
R
side cameras (rear wheel view)
top view and images from the forward-
R
facing side cameras (front wheel view)
When the function is active and you shift the
transmission from D or R to N, the guide lines
in the Audio 20 or COMAND display are hid-
den.
When you change between transmission
positions D and R, you see the previously
selected front or rear view.
Distances measured by PARKTRONIC will
also be optically displayed:
as red or yellow brackets around the vehi-
R
cle symbol in top view in split-screen mode
or
at the bottom right as red or yellow brack-
R
ets around the vehicle symbol in full-screen
mode
The line thickness and colour of the brackets
show how far the vehicle is from an object.
yellow brackets with thin lines:
R
PARKTRONIC is active
yellow brackets with normal lines: an
R
object is present in close range of the vehi-
cle
red line: an object is present in the imme-
R
diate close range of the vehicle
Important safety notes
The 360° camera is only an aid and may show
a distorted view of obstacles, show them
incorrectly or not at all. The 360° camera is
not a substitute for attentive driving.
The responsibility for safe manoeuvring and
parking remains with you. Make sure that
there are no persons, animals or objects in
range while manoeuvring and parking.
You are always responsible for safety, and
must always pay attention to your surround-
ings when parking and manoeuvring. This
