caused by the vehicle rolling away
After a short time, Hill Start Assist no longer
holds the vehicle and it can roll away.

Rear view camera with rear-view mirror dis‐
play
Function of the rear view camera with inside
rearview mirror display
The rear view camera is connected to the vehi‐
cle's inside rearview mirror. When you engage
reverse gear the rear view camera's image
appears in the left area of the inside rearview
mirror. It is therefore possible to see what is
behind the vehicle when backing up.
The rear view camera with inside rearview mirror
display is only an aid. It is not a substitute for you
paying attention to the surroundings. You are
always responsible for safe maneuvering and
parking. Make sure that there are no persons,
animals or objects etc. in the maneuvering area
while maneuvering and parking in parking
spaces.
The rear view camera with inside rearview mirror
display may show a distorted view of obstacles,
show them incorrectly or not at all. It cannot
show all objects which are very near to or under
the rear bumper. It will not warn you of a colli‐
sion, people or objects.
The area behind the vehicle is displayed as a mir‐
ror image.

display will not function, or will only partially
function, in the following situations:
R

R
if the ambient light is poor, e.g. at night
R
