Rear view camera system
Introduction

support for parking manoeuvres.
The Rear View Camera shows the area be-
hind the vehicle on the Infotainment sys-
tem screen. Depending on the operating
mode and equipment level, orientation
lines aid the view to the rear →

WARNING
The Rear View Camera is not a substitute
for the full a
ttention of the driver and
works exclusively within the system lim-
its. Using images from the camera to esti-
mate the distance from persons or obsta-
cles can be inaccurate. If you do not pay
due attention, there is a risk of accidents
and serious injuries.

Always pay due attention and do not
rely exclusively on the system. The driv-
er is always responsible for all driving
tasks.

Note that camera lenses can enlarge
and distort the field of view.
