Rear view camera system
Introduction to the topic
The rear view camera system in the rear
of the vehicle makes it easier for the
driver to see behind the vehicle and pro-
vides support for parking manoeuvres.
Function
The rear view camera system shows the area
behind the vehicle on the Infotainment sys-
tem screen. Depending on the operating
mode and equipment specification, orienta-
tion lines aid the view to the rear.
WARNING
The intelligent technology used in the park-
ing systems cannot overcome the laws of
physics, and functions only within the sys-
tem limits. This may result in accidents, se-
rious injuries and also damage to the vehi-
cle.

The parking system is not a substitute
for the full concentration of the driver.
