Risk of accident

bility to pay attention. The camera may not
show objects in the following areas:

Very close to the rear bumper

You are always responsible for safety and
must continue to pay attention to your im-
mediate surroundings when parking and
manoeuvring. This applies to the area be-
hind, in front of and beside the vehicle. Oth-
erwise, you could endanger yourself and
others.

the manoeuvring range. Otherwise, they
