General notes Example: CLS Coupe
Rear view camera :is an optical parking and
maneuvering aid. It shows the area behind
your vehicle with guidelines in the Audio 20 or
COMAND display.
The area behind the vehicle is displayed as a
mirror image, as in the rear view mirror.
i The text shown in the Audio 20 or
COMAND display depends on the language
setting. The following are examples of rear view camera messages in the COMAND
display.
Important safety notes The rear view camera is only an aid. It is not a
replacement for your attention to your imme- diate surroundings. You are always responsi-
ble for safe maneuvering and parking. When
maneuvering or parking, make sure that there are no persons, animals or objects in the area
in which you are maneuvering.
Under the following circumstances, the rear
view camera will not function, or will function
in a limited manner:
R if the trunk lid or tailgate is open
R in heavy rain, snow or fog R
at night or in very dark places
R if the camera is 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
winter
R if the camera lens is dirty or obstructed.
Observe the notes on cleaning
(Y page 321)
R if the rear of your vehicle is damaged. In this
event, have the camera position and setting
checked at a qualified specialist workshop
The field of vision and other functions of the
rear view camera may be restricted due to
additional accessories on the rear of the vehi-
cle (e.g. license plate holder, bicycle rack).
On vehicles with height-adjustable chassis,
leaving the standard height can result in inac- curacies in the guide lines, depending on
technical conditions.
i The rear view camera is protected from
raindrops and dust by means of a flap.
When the rear view camera is activated,
this flap opens.
The flap closes again when:
R you have finished the maneuvering proc-
ess
R you switch off the engine
R you open the trunk
Observe the notes on cleaning
(Y page 321).
For technical reasons, the flap may remain
open briefly after the rear view camera has been deactivated.

Audio 20 or COMAND display in yellow or red
respectively. 360° camera
General notes The 360° camera is a system consisting of
four cameras.
The system analyzes images from the follow- ing cameras:
R Rear view camera
R Front camera
R Two cameras in the exterior rear view mir-
rors
The cameras capture the immediate sur-
roundings of the vehicle. The system sup-
ports you, e.g. when parking or if vision is
restricted at an exit.
You can show pictures from the 360° camera in full-screen mode or in six different split-
screen views on the COMAND/Audio 20 dis-
play. A split-screen view also includes a top
view of the vehicle. This view is calculated
from the data supplied by the installed cam-
eras (virtual camera).
The six split-screen views are:
R top view and picture from the rear view
camera (130° viewing angle)
R top view and image from the front camera
(130° viewing angle without displaying the
maximum steering wheel angle)
R top view and enlarged rear view
R top view and enlarged front view
R top view and images from the side mirror
cameras (rear wheel view)
R top view and images from the side mirror
cameras (front wheel view)
When the function is active and you shift the
transmission from Dor Rto N, the dynamic
guidelines are hidden.
When you change between transmission
positions Dand R, you see the previously
selected front or rear view. Distances measured by PARKTRONIC will
also be optically displayed:
R in split screen view as red or yellow brack-
ets around the vehicle icon in the top view, or
R at the bottom right as red or yellow brack-
ets around the vehicle symbol in full-screen mode
The line thickness and color of the brackets
show how far the vehicle is from an object. R yellow brackets with thin lines:
PARKTRONIC is active
R yellow brackets with normal lines: an
object is present in close range of the vehi-
cle
R red line: an object is present in the imme-
diate close range of the vehicle
Important safety notes The 360°camera is only an aid and may show
a distorted view of obstacles, show them
incorrectly or not at all. The 360°camera is
not a substitute for attentive driving.
You are always responsible for safe maneu-
vering and parking. When maneuvering or
parking, make sure that there are no persons,
animals or objects in the area in which you are maneuvering.
You are always responsible for safety, and
must always pay attention to your surround-
ings when parking and maneuvering. This
applies to the areas behind, in front of and
beside the vehicle. You could otherwise
endanger yourself and others.
The 360° camera will not function or will
function in a limited manner:
R if the doors are open
R if the exterior mirrors are folded in
R if the trunk lid/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
