Rear View Camera (Rear View)
Introduction
The Rear View Camera system in the
rear of the vehicle makes it easier for
the driver to see behind the vehicle and
assists when parking.
System function
The Rear View Camera system shows the area behind the vehicle on the Infotainment system screen. Depending on the mode and vehicle equipment, orientation
lines may assist in the view toward the rear ⇒
.
WARNING
The intelligent technology of the Park Distance Control (PDC) cannot overcome the natural laws of physics and it can only operate within the limits of the
system. Not paying attention can result in accidents, serious injuries and vehicle damage.
The PDC cannot replace the driver's attention.
Brake the vehicle in good time before reaching an obstacle.
The orientation lines superimposed on the camera image are shown by the system regardless of the vehicle's surroundings. There is no automatic obstacle
detection by the camera while it is active. The driver must evaluate whether the vehicle will fit in the parking space.
If a trailer is connected to the factory-installed trailer hitch, all orientation lines for the rear area are hidden in the camera image.
If a camera is installed in the trunk lid, the orientation lines are also hidden if the trunk lid is open.
USA and Canada: If the camera image on a parking system has been switched on by engaging the reverse gear, no function keys are displayed for safety reasons.
These function keys can be displayed again by tapping the function key
