Reverse Assist (Rear View
Camera)
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
eld of view and displays the objects on the
screen in a way that is dierent from reality.
Distance perception is also distorted.
•
Due to the screen resolution or light con-
ditions, some items may be blurry or not dis-
played at all. Take care with thin posts, fen-
ces, 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.
•
The system is not a replacement for driver
awareness. Supervise the parking manoeu-
vre and the vehicle's surrounding area at all
times.
•
Do not be distracted from the traic by
looking at the screen.
• The images are only two-dimensional. Pro-
truding objects or holes in the road, for ex-
ample, are more diicult to detect or may not
be seen at all.
•
Vehicle load modies the representation of
the guide lines. The width represented by the
lines decreases with vehicle load. Pay special
attention to the surroundings when the in-
side of the vehicle of the luggage compart-
ment 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 at 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.
•
The reverse assist reference lines disap-
pear when the rear lid is open.
