General notes Reversing camera
:is under a flap in the
boot lid.
Reversing camera :is an optical parking
and manoeuvring aid. It shows the area
behind your vehicle with guide lines in the
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 COMAND display
depends on the language setting. The fol-
lowing are examples of reversing camera
displays in the COMAND display.
Important safety notes The reversing camera is only an aid. It is not a
substitute for your attention to the immediate
surroundings. The responsibility for safe
manoeuvring and parking remains with you.
Make sure that there are no persons, animals
or objects in range while manoeuvring and
parking. Under the following circumstances, the
reversing camera will not function, or will
function in a limited manner:
R if the boot lid 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 the camera lens mists up, e.g. when driv-
ing into a heated garage in winter, causing
a rapid change in temperature
R if the camera lens is dirty or obstructed.
R if the rear of your vehicle is damaged. In this
case, have the camera position and setting checked at a qualified specialist workshop.
The field of vision and other functions of the
reversing camera may be restricted due to
additional accessories on the rear of the vehi-
cle (e.g. licence plate holder, bicycle rack).
The guide lines in the COMAND display show the distances to your vehicle. The distances
only apply to road level.
i The reversing camera is protected from
raindrops and dust by means of a flap.
When the reversing camera is activated,
this flap opens.
The flap closes again when:
R you have finished the manoeuvring proc-
ess
R you switch off the engine
R you open the boot
Observe the notes on cleaning
(Y page 350).
For technical reasons, the flap may remain
open briefly after the reversing camera has been deactivated. 220

Displays in the COMAND display The reversing camera may show a distorted
view of obstacles or show them incorrectly or not at all. Obstacles are not shown by the
reversing camera in the following locations:
R very close to the rear bumper
R under the rear bumper
R in the area immediately above the emblem
in the boot lid.
! Objects not at ground level may appear to
be further away than they actually are, e.g.:
R the bumper of a parked vehicle
R the drawbar of a trailer
R the ball coupling of a trailer tow hitch
R the rear section of an HGV
R a slanted post

Object detection
The reversing camera can detect moving and
stationary objects. If, for example, a pedes-
trian or another vehicle is detected, these
objects are marked with bars. The system is
only able to detect and mark stationary
objects when your vehicle is moving. When
the vehicle is stationary, moving objects can
be detected and marked.
To ensure that you can use the function, it
must be switched on in COMAND Online (see
the separate operating instructions). 360° camera (surround view)
General notes The 360° camera is a camera system that
consists of four cameras.
The system evaluates images from the fol-
lowing cameras:
R reversing camera
R front camera
R two side cameras in the exterior mirrors
The cameras cover the immediate surround-
ings of the vehicle. The 360° camera assists
you, for instance when parking or at exits with reduced visibility.
You can show pictures from the 360° camera
in full-screen mode or in six different split-
screen views on the COMAND display. A split- screen view also includes a top view of the
vehicle. This view is calculated from the data supplied by the installed cameras (virtual
camera).
The six split-screen views are:
R top view and image from the reversing cam-
era (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 rear-facing
side cameras (rear wheel view)
R top view and images from the forward-
facing side cameras (front wheel view)
When the function is active and you shift the
transmission from Dor Rto N, the guidelines
in the COMAND display 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 as red or yellow brackets around the vehi-
cle symbol in top view in split-screen mode
or
R at the bottom right as red or yellow brack-
ets around the vehicle symbol in full-screen
mode
The line thickness and colour 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.
The responsibility for safe manoeuvring and
parking remains with you. Make sure that
there are no persons, animals or objects in
range while manoeuvring and parking.
You are always responsible for safety, and
must always pay attention to your surround-
ings when parking and manoeuvring. This
applies to the areas behind, in front of and
beside the vehicle. You could otherwise
endanger yourself and others. 224
