- Fig. 1 Location of surround view cameras
Applies to vehicles: with parking system with surround view cameras
The surround view cameras are located in the front bumper, in the boot lid and on both exterior mirrors* Fig. 1. Please ensure that the lenses of the cameras are kept free of stickers, deposits and any other substances which could impair the function of the system. Notes on cleaning Link.
In overhead view mode, black edges are shown on the vehicle's silhouette. Objects in these areas are outside the camera's field of vision and are not detected.
The accuracy of the orientation lines and the blue area markings decreases if there is a malfunction in the adaptive air suspension/sport*, if the vehicle is raised, or if the dynamic mode is activated Link.
- Please observe the safety warnings WARNING!.
- For safety reasons, you should not use the system if the position or installation angle of any of the cameras have been changed, e.g. due to an accident. Have it checked by a qualified workshop.
- If the exterior mirrors are retracted electrically, the side area will not be shown in the display. If the exterior mirrors are retracted manually, the display will be incorrect.
- Make sure the boot lid is properly closed before using the rear view and/or corner view (rear); otherwise the display will be incorrect.
- The overhead view of the vehicle surroundings is composed from the camera pictures. A graphical image of the vehicle is superimposed on the display by the system. Objects and obstacles above the camera are not displayed.
- Camera lenses enlarge and distort the field of vision. Objects on the screen are modified and depicted inaccurately.
- Please observe the safety warnings Caution!.
- The display shows the path of the rear end of the vehicle if you were to reverse using the current steering angle. NB: The front end of the vehicle swings out further than the rear. Please make sure you keep a sufficient distance between the vehicle and any obstacles to make sure that the exterior mirror or edge of the vehicle do not collide with the obstacles.
