Function of the surround view camera
The surround view camera is a system that con-
sists of four cameras. The cameras cover the
immediate vehicle surroundings. The system
assists you, for example, when parking or at exits
with reduced visibility.
The surround view camera is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for you paying attention to the surround-
ings. You are always responsible for safe maneu-
vering and parking. Make sure that there are no
persons, animals or objects etc. in the maneuver-
ing area while maneuvering and parking in parking
spaces.
The system evaluates images from the following
cameras:
R
Rear view camera
R
Front camera
