Important safety notes
The 360° camera is only an aid and may show a
distorted view of obstacles, show them incor-
rectly or not at all. The 360° camera is not a
substitute for attentive driving.
The responsibility for safe manoeuvring and
parking remains with you. Make sure that there
are no persons, animals or objects in range
while manoeuvring and parking.
You are responsible for safety at all times and
must always pay attention to your surroundings
when parking and manoeuvring. This applies to
the areas behind, in front of and beside the vehi-
cle. You could otherwise endanger yourself and
others.
The 360° camera will not function or will func-
tion only to a limited extent:
R
If the doors are open
R
If the exterior mirrors are folded in
R
If the tailgate is open
R
In heavy rain, snow or fog
R
At night or in very dark places
R
If the cameras are exposed to very bright light
R
If the area is lit by fluorescent bulbs or LED
lighting (the display may flicker)
R
If there is a sudden change in temperature,
e.g. when driving into a heated garage in win-
ter
R
If the camera lenses are dirty or covered
R
If the vehicle components in which the cam-
eras are fitted are damaged. In this event,
have the camera position and setting checked
at a qualified specialist workshop
Do not use the 360° camera under such cir-
cumstances. You could otherwise injure others
or damage objects when parking the vehicle.
Guide lines are always shown at road level. In
trailer mode, the guide lines are shown at the

The field of vision and other functions of the
camera system may be restricted due to addi-
tional accessories on the rear of the vehicle (e.g.
licence plate holder, bicycle rack).

due to the technical conditions, leaving the
standard height can result in the following:
