Reversing camera
Function of the reversing camera
If you have activated the function in the multime‐
dia system, the image from reversing camera
1
is displayed in the multimedia system when
reverse gear is selected. Dynamic guide lines
show the path the vehicle will take with the
steering wheel in its current position. This helps
you to orientate yourself and to avoid obstacles
when reversing.
The reversing camera is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for your attention to the surroundings.
The responsibility for safe manoeuvring and
parking remains with you. Make sure that there
are no persons, animals or objects in the
manoeuvring area while manoeuvring and park‐
ing in parking spaces.
You can select from the following views:
R
Normal view
R
Wide-angle view
R
Trailer view
The area behind the vehicle is displayed as a
mirror image, as in the inside rearview mirror.
