▷ Coloured markings: warning that obstacles
have been detected.
Lateral parking aid limits
The system only shows stationary obstacles that
were previously detected by the sensors when
driving past.
The system does not detect whether an obstacle
subsequently moves. Consequently, the mark‐
ings will no longer be shown on the display after
the vehicle has been stationary for a while. The
area next to the vehicle needs to be scanned
again.
Door opening angle
Principle
If obstacle marking is activated, the system
shows any fixed, stationary obstacles that are re‐
stricting the opening angle of the doors.
The system does not issue warnings about ap‐
proaching road users.
Steptronic transmission: the maximum door
opening angles are displayed when the selector
lever is in position P. Once the vehicle moves off,
the parking assistance lines are displayed instead
of the opening angles.
Limits of the display
For technical reasons, the display of the area
around the vehicle is distorted.
Even if the symbols for the door opening angles
on the Control Display are not covering any other
objects, bear in mind the following when parking
beside other objects:
The perspective means that protruding objects
located higher up may be closer than they ap‐
pear on the Control Display.
Setting the brightness and
contrast
When Surround View or Panorama View is
switched on, it is possible to adjust the bright‐
ness and contrast.
1. If necessary, tilt the Controller to the right.
2. "Camera picture"
3. Perform the desired setting:
▷ "Brightness"
▷ "Contrast"
Functional limitations
The system can only be used to a limited extent
in the following situations:
▷ In poor light conditions.
▷ If the cameras are dirty.
▷ With a door open.
▷ With the tailgate open.
▷ With the exterior mirrors folded in.
Grey hatched areas with a symbol, for example
an open door, in the camera display identify
areas that are not currently shown.

hicle cannot be seen by the cameras.
