Functional limitations
The system may have limited functionality in
some situations, for example:
▷ In thick fog, wet conditions or snow.
▷ On sharp bends.
▷ If vehicle stability control systems are deacti‐
vated, for example DSC OFF.
▷ If the field of view of the camera or the wind‐
screen in front of the rear-view mirror is soiled
or covered.
▷ If the camera has overheated due to exces‐
sively high temperatures and has been tem‐
porarily deactivated.
▷ Depending on the equipment version: if the
radar sensors are soiled or covered.
▷ Up to 10 seconds after starting the engine
using the start/stop button.
▷ During the camera calibration process imme‐
diately after vehicle delivery.
▷ When there is sustained glare due to oncom‐
ing light, for example the sun is low in the sky.
▷ In the dark.
Night Vision with person
and animal recognition
Principle
Night Vision with person and animal recognition
is a night vision system.
An infrared camera records the area in front of
the vehicle and warns of people and animals on
the road. Warm objects with a shape similar to
human beings or animals are detected by the
system. The thermal image can be shown in the
Control Display as needed.
Depending on equipment, the detected objects
are illuminated with the Dynamic Marker Light,
see page
194 , for better detection.
General
Thermal image
The heat radiated by objects in the camera's field
of view is shown.
Warm objects are shown light and cold objects
dark.
Recognition depends on the temperature differ‐
ential in relation to the background and on the
heat radiation of the object. Objects with a low
temperature difference in relation to the environ‐
ment or which are only radiating low levels of
heat can therefore only be detected to a limited
degree.
For safety reasons, from speeds of approxi‐
mately 5 km/h, 3 mph, and in low ambient light,
the image is only shown when the low-beam
headlights are switched on.
A still image is intermittently displayed for a frac‐
tion of a second.
Person and animal recognition
The object detection and warning system only
operates in the dark.
