the responsibility to pay attention. The cam-
era cannot show objects:

You are always responsible for safety and
must continue to pay attention to your imme-
diate surroundings when parking and
manoeuvring. This applies to the areas
behind, in front of and beside the vehicle. You
could otherwise endanger yourself and oth-
ers.

The reversing camera will not function or not
be fully functional when:
R
there is heavy rain, snow or fog
R
you park/manoeuvre your vehicle at night
or in a very dark area
R
very bright white light affects the camera
R
the immediate surroundings are lit by fluo-
rescent light (the COMAND system display
may flicker)
R
the temperature changes suddenly, for
example if you drive into a heated garage
from the cold (condensation forms on the
lens)
R
the camera lens is dirty or is covered
R
the rear of your vehicle is damaged
In this event, have the camera position and
setting checked at a specialist workshop.
Mercedes-Benz recommends that you con-
sult a Mercedes-Benz Service Centre for
this purpose.
Do not use the reversing camera in these sit-
uations. Otherwise, you may injure yourself
and/or others when parking/manoeuvring
and/or cause damage to property including
your own vehicle.

Blind Spot Assist
Important safety notes
Blind Spot Assist uses a radar sensor system
to monitor the areas on both sides of your
vehicle. Blind Spot Assist provides assistance
at speeds higher than 30 km/h. A warning
display in the exterior mirrors draws your
attention to detected vehicles in the moni-
tored area. If you then switch on the corre-
sponding turn signal to change lane, you will
also receive a visual and acoustic collision
warning. For this purpose, Blind Spot Assist
uses sensors in the rear bumper.
G WARNING
Blind Spot Assist is only an aid designed to
assist driving. It may fail to detect some vehi-
cles and is no substitute for attentive driving.
Blind Spot Assist cannot detect road and traf-
fic conditions. It may fail to detect narrow
vehicles, such as motorcycles or bicycles, or
only detect them too late.
Monitoring may be affected by dirty sensors,
strong spray or poor visibility caused by snow,
rain or mist, for example. In this case, vehicles
are detected late or not at all.
Always pay attention to traffic conditions and
your surroundings. Otherwise, you may fail to
recognise dangers in time, cause an accident
and injure yourself and others.
