Function of the 360° Camera
The system consists of four cameras. The cam‐
eras cover the immediate vehicle surroundings.
The system assists you, for example, when park‐
ing or at exits with reduced visibility.
The 360° Camera is only an aid. It is not a substi‐
tute for you paying attention to the surroundings.
You are always responsible for safe manoeuvring
and parking. Make sure that there are no per‐
sons, animals or objects etc. in the manoeuvring
area while manoeuvring and parking in parking
spaces.
The system evaluates images from the following
cameras:
Reversing camera

Front camera
