orientation.
Off-road or hitching a trailer function.
The vehicle's rear is presented.
Green and red semicircular auxiliary
lines are displayed in vehicles with a fac-
tory-fitted towing bracket. The auxiliary
lines indicate the distance from the tow-
ing bracket. The distance between the
auxiliary lines (green and red) is approx.
30 cm The orange auxiliary line indi-

Cross traffic. This visualization helps to
monitor traffic to the left, front and right
of the vehicle and can be used, for ex-
ample, when exiting garages or narrow

Reverse Assist (Rear View Cam-
era)*
Operating and safety warnings
WARNING
●
The reverse assist does not make it possi-
ble to precisely calculate the distance from
obstacles and nor can it overcome the sys-
tem's own limits, hence its negligent use
may cause serious accidents and injuries if
used without due care. The driver should
be aware of his/her surroundings at all
times to ensure safe driving.
●
The camera lens expands and distorts the
field of view and displays the objects on the
screen in a way that is different from reality.
Distance perception is also distorted.
●
Due to the screen resolution or light con-
ditions, some items may be blurry or not
displayed at all. Take care with thin posts,
fences, railings or trees that might not be
seen on the screen and could damage the
vehicle.
●
The reverse assist has blind spots where it
cannot see people or objects. Monitor the
vehicle's surrounding area at all times.
●
Keep the camera lens clean, free of ice
and snow, and do not cover it.
●
The system is not a replacement for driv-
er awareness. Supervise the parking ma-
noeuvre and the vehicle's surrounding area
at all times.
●
Do not be distracted from the traffic by
looking at the screen.
●
The images are only two-dimensional.
Protruding objects or holes in the road, for
example, are more difficult to detect or
may not be seen at all.
●
Vehicle load modifies the representation
of the guide lines
›››
Fig. 193 . The width
represented by the lines decreases with ve-
hicle load. Pay special attention to the sur-
roundings when the inside of the vehicle of
the luggage compartment are loaded.
●
In the following situations, objects or
other vehicles appear to be further away or
closer than they actually are. Pay special
attention:
–
If moving from a flat surface to a slope
and vice-versa.
–
If the vehicle is heavily loaded.
–
When the vehicle approaches objects
that are not on the ground surface or
that protrude from it. These objects
may be outside the camera angle when
reversing.
Note
●
It is important to take great care and pay
special attention if the driver is not familiar
with the system.
●
Reverse assist will not be available if the
rear lid is open.
