Special considerations
1) Do not use Rear View Camera system in the following situations:
– When an incorrect or unclear image is displayed, such as when there is poor visibility or a lens is dirty.
– If the area behind the vehicle cannot be seen clearly or completely.
– If the rear of the vehicle is heavily loaded.
– If the rear hatch is open.
– If the driver is not familiar with the system.
– If the position or angle of the camera was changed, such as after a rear-end collision, have the system checked by an authorized Volkswagen dealer or an authorized Volkswagen Service Facility.
2.) Examples of optical deception by the camera:
The Rear View Camera system provides only two-dimensional images. Recesses and protruding objects on the ground or protruding parts on other vehicles are difficult or impossible to identify due to the lack of depth of field.
Objects or another vehicle may seem closer or farther away on the screen than they really are.
– When driving from a level surface onto an upward or downward slope.
– When driving up or down a slope onto a level surface.
– If the rear of the vehicle is heavily loaded.
– When approaching protruding objects. These objects can disappear from the field of view when backing up.
