Park assist camera
*
Parking camera is an auxiliary system, which is
activated when the reverse gear is selected.
The camera image is shown on the centre con-
sole's screen.
When a towbar is configured with the car's
electrical system, the protrusion of the towbar
is included when the function measures the
parking space.
WARNING
•
The parking camera serves as an aid. It
does not relieve the driver of responsibil-
ity when reversing.
•
The camera has blind spots, where obsta-
cles cannot be detected.
•
Be aware of people and animals in the
vicinity of the car.
Function and operation
Camera location next to the opening handle.
The camera shows what is behind the car and if
something appears from the sides.
The camera shows a wide area behind the car
and part of the bumper and any towbar.
Objects on the screen may appear to tilt slightly -
this is normal.
Objects on the display screen may be closer
to the car than they appear to be on the
screen.
If another view is active then the parking camera
system takes over automatically and its camera
image is displayed on the screen.
When reverse gear is selected, two unbroken
lines are shown graphically which illustrate where
the car's rear wheels will roll with the current
steering wheel angle - this facilitates parallel
parking, reversing into tight spaces and for hitch-
ing a trailer. The car's approximate external
dimensions are illustrated by means of dashed
lines. The park assist lines can be deactivated -
see section Settings (p. 261).
If the car is also equipped with Parking assis-
tance sensors (p. 255)
*
then their information is
shown graphically as coloured areas in order to
illustrate distances to detected obstacles, see
heading "Cars with reversing sensors" later in the
text.
The camera is active approx. 5 seconds after
reverse gear has been disengaged or until the
car's speed exceeds 10 km/h (6 mph) forward or
35 km/h (22 mph) backward.
Light conditions
The camera image is adjusted automatically
according to prevailing light conditions. Because
of this, the image may vary slightly in brightness
and quality. Poor light conditions can result in a
slightly reduced image quality.
Keep the camera lens clear of dirt, snow and
ice to ensure optimum function. This is partic-
ularly important in poor light.
