The rearview camera cannot replace the driver's attention. The
driver alone is responsible for parking and similar driving maneu-
vers.
•
Always keep your eyes on the vehicle's surroundings, using the
rearview mirror as well.
•
Do not allow yourself to be distracted from traffic by the rear-
view camera pictures in the navigation system display.
•
If the position and the installation angle of the camera has
changed, for example, after a rear end collision, do not continue to
use the system for safety reasons. Have it checked by an autho-
rized Audi dealer or other qualified workshop.
