Reverse Assist (Rear View
Camera)
Introduction
A camera on the rear bumper aids the
driver when reverse parking or manoeuvring
›››page194.
The camera image is viewed together with ori-
entation lines projected on the Infotainment
system screen. Part of the bumper can be seen
at the bottom, which can be used by the driver
as a reference point.
Reverse assist modes
Depending on the equipment, the following
modes are available:
●
Angle parking: reverse parking perpendicu-
lar to the road.
●
Trailer towing assist function: assistance
with hitching a trailer.
●
Cross trac: monitors cross trac.
Requirements
To park with reverse assist, the following re-
quirements must be met:
●
Do not exceed a speed of approx. 15km/h
(9mph).
●
Parking space width: vehicle width + 0.15 m
(without counting the mirrors).
To display a real image, the following require-
ments must be met:
●
The luggage compartment rear door is
closed.
●
The surroundings are on a flat surface.
●
The vehicle should not be loaded very heavily
at the rear.
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 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c 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cult to detect or may not
be seen at all.
●
Vehicle load modifies the representation of
the guide lines. The width represented by the
lines decreases with vehicle load. Pay spe-
cial attention to the surroundings when the
inside 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 flat surface to a slope
and vice-versa.
–
If the vehicle is heavily loaded.
