General notes
Rear view camera :is an optical parking and
maneuvering aid. It shows the area behind your
vehicle with guide lines in the multimedia sys-
tem display.
The area behind the vehicle is displayed as a
mirror image, as in the rear view mirror.
iThe text shown in the multimedia system
display depends on the language setting. The
following are examples of rear view camera
messages in the multimedia system display.
Observe the notes on cleaning (
Ypage 262).
Important safety notes

replacement for your attention to your immedi-
ate surroundings. You are always responsible
for safe maneuvering and parking. When maneu-
vering 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

Rin heavy rain, snow or fog
Rat night or in very dark places
Rif the camera is exposed to very bright light

Important safety notes
GWARNING
Lane Keepin g Assist may not always clearly
recognize lane markings.
In this case, Lane Keepin g Assist may:
Rgive an unnecessary warning
Rnot give a warning
There isa risk of an acc ident.
Always pay particular attention to the traff ic
situation and stay inlane, inparticular if
warned byLane Keepin g Assist.
GWARNING
The Lane Keepin g Assist warning does not
return the veh icleto the original lane. There is
a risk of an acc ident.
You should always steer, brake or accelerate
yourself, inparticular ifwarned byLane Keep-
ing Assist.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, Lane Keep-
ing Assist can neither reduce the risk of an acc i-
dent nor overr idethe laws of physics. Lane
Keepin g Assist cannot take into account the
road, traff icand weather conditions. Lane Keep-
ing Assist ismerely an aid.You are responsible
for the distance to the veh icle infront, for veh i-
cle speed, for braking ingood time and for stay-
ing inyour lane.
The Lane Keepin g Assist does not keep the veh i-
cle inthe lane.
The system may beimpaired or may not function
if:
Rthere ispoor vis ibility, e.g. due to insuff icient
illumi nation of the road, or due to snow, rain,
fog or spray
Rthere isglare, e.g. from oncoming traffic, the
sun or reflection from other veh icles (e.g. if
the road surface iswet)
Rthe windshield is dirty, fogged up, damaged or
covered, for instance bya sticker, inthe vicin-
ity of the camera
Rthere are no, several or unclear lane markings
for a lane, e.g. inareas with road construction
work
Rthe lane markings are worn away, dark or cov-
ered up, e.g. by dirtor snow
Rthe distance to the vehicle in front istoo small
and the lane markings thus cannot be detec-
ted
Rthe lane markings change quickly, e.g. lanes
branch off, cross one another or merge
Rthe road isnarrow and winding
Rthere are highly variable shade conditions on
the roadway
Switching on Lane Keeping Assist
XSwit ch on Active Lane Keeping Assist using
the on-board computer; to do so, select
Standard
or Adaptive(Ypage 183).
If you drive at speeds above 40 mph
(60 km/ h)and lane markings are detected,
the lines in the assistance graphics display
(
Ypage 182) are shown in green. Lane Keep-
ing Assist is ready for use.
If Standard
is selected, no warning vibration
occurs if:
Ryou have switched on the turn signal. In this
event, the warnings are suppressed for a cer-
tain period of time.
Ra driving safety system intervenes, e.g. ABS,
BAS or ESP®.
When Adaptive
is selected, no warning vibra-
tion occurs if:
Ryou have switched on the turn signal. In this
event, the warnings are suppressed for a cer-
tain period of time.
Ra driving safety system intervenes, e.g. ABS,
BAS or ESP®.
Ryou accelerate hard, e.g. kickdown.
Ryou brake hard.
Ryou steer actively, e.g. swerve to avoid an
obstacle or change lanes quickly.
Ryou cut the corner on a sharp bend.
In order that you are warned only when neces-
sary and in good time if you cross the lane mark-
ing, the system recognizes certain conditions
and warns you accordingly.
The warning vibration occurs earlier if:
Ryou approach the outer lane marking on a
bend.
Rthe road has very wide lanes, e.g. a highway.
Rthe system detects solid lane markings.
The warning vibration occurs later if:
Rthe road has narrow lanes.
Ryou cut the corner on a bend.
