The system can only be used to a restricted ex‐
tent in the following situations:
▷ In poor light conditions.
▷ If the cameras are dirty.

▷ Cameras, see page 48.
Non-visible areas
Due to the angle of view, the area under the ve‐
hicle cannot be seen by the cameras.
Detection of objects
The system cannot detect very low obstacles
and higher, protruding objects such as ledges.
The objects shown in the control display may be
closer than they appear. Do not estimate the dis‐
tance to the objects on the control display.
Some assistance functions also take account of
Park Distance Control PDC data.
For further information:
Park Distance Control, PDC, see page 253.
Malfunction
Failure of one camera is shown on the control
display.
An icon is displayed and the detection
range of the failed camera is displayed
cross-hatched on the control display.
Reversing Assist Camera
Principle
The Reversing Assist Camera provides assis‐
tance when reverse parking or manoeuvring. It
does this by showing an image of the area be‐
hind the vehicle on the control display.
Additionally, assistance functions can be shown
in the display, for example lane and turning circle
lines.
Safety note
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of your per‐
sonal responsibility to assess the traffic situa‐
tion correctly. Due to system limits, it cannot
respond independently and appropriately in all
traffic situations. There is a risk of accident.
Adapt your driving style to the traffic conditions.
In addition, look directly to check the traffic sit‐
uation and the vehicle surroundings and inter‐
vene actively where appropriate.
