Object detection
The reversing camera helps detect moving and
stationary objects. If an object (person, vehicle
or other obstacle) is detected, this object is
marked with a bar. Objects located some dis-
tance away from the vehicle are marked with a
yellow bar. If the distance to the object is very
small, the bar is displayed in red.
Object detection only works in wide-angle view.
To ensure that you can use the function, it must
be switched on in the multimedia system (see
the separate operating instructions).
360° camera
General notes
The 360° camera is a camera system that con-
sists of four cameras.
The system evaluates images from the following
cameras:
R
reversing camera
R
front camera
R
two side cameras in the exterior mirrors
The cameras cover the immediate surroundings
of the vehicle. The system assists you, e.g. when
parking or at exits with reduced visibility.
You can show images from the 360° camera in
full-screen mode or in seven different split-
screen views on the multimedia system. A split-
screen view also includes a top view of the vehi-
cle. This view is calculated from the data sup-
plied by the installed cameras (virtual camera).
The seven split-screen views are:
R
Top view and image from the reversing cam-
era (130° viewing angle)
R
Top view and image from the front camera
(130° viewing angle without displaying the
maximum steering wheel angle)
R
Top view and enlarged rear view
R
Top view and enlarged front view
R
Top view and trailer view (vehicles with trailer
tow hitch)
R
Top view and images from the rear-facing side
cameras (rear wheel view)
R
Top view and images from the forward-facing
side cameras (front wheel view)
When the function is active and you shift the
transmission from D or R to N, the guide lines
are hidden in the multimedia system.
When you change between transmission posi-
tions D and R, you see the previously selected
front or rear view.
Distances measured by PARKTRONIC will also
be optically displayed:
R
as red or yellow brackets around the vehicle
symbol in top view in split-screen mode or
R
at the bottom right as red or yellow brackets
around the vehicle symbol in full-screen mode
The line thickness and colour of the brackets
show how far the vehicle is from an object.
