• Be aware of people and animals in thevicinity of the car.
Camera viewsThe function can display a composite 360° viewand separate views for each of the four cameras:rear, front, left or right camera view. The upper-most in the selected view denotes which camerais active.
360° view camera
*
The approximate coverage area of the Park Assist Cam- eras.
The four sides of the car are shown simultane- ously in the centre display, which helps the driverto observe what is around the car when manoeu-vring at slow speeds. Every camera view can be activated separately by tapping on the screen on the desired camera's"field of vision" - e.g. in front of or above the frontcamera. If the car is also equipped with Parking assis- tance* then distance to detected obstacles is
illustrated with fields in different colours.
25 Not available in all markets.
26 The park assist lines are switched off when zooming in.

Backwards
The backwards-facing camera 27
is fitted above the reg-
istration plate.
The backward-facing camera shows a wide area behind the car. For certain models, part of thebumper can be seen as well as the towbar insome cases. Objects shown in the centre display may appear slightly tilted — this is normal.
NOTE
Objects on the centre display may be closer to the car than they appear to be on thescreen.
Forwards
The forwards parking camera 27
is located in the grille.
The front camera can be helpful on an exit road with limited visibility to the sides, e.g. when thereare high hedges. It is active at speeds up to25 km/h (16 mph) - following which, the frontcamera is switched off. If the car does not reach 50 km/h (30 mph), and the speed falls below 22 km/h (14 mph) within60 seconds after the forward-facing camera hasbeen switched off, the camera is reactivated.
NOTE
Automatic reactivation of the front camera on speed reduction requires that Auto Camera
Reverse Activation is selected in Settings
My CarPark Assist.
The sides
The side cameras 27
are positioned in each door mirror.
The side cameras show what is along each side of the car.

Park assist lines and fields for the Park Assist Camera *
The Park Assist Camera indicates the position of the car in relation to its surroundings by display-ing lines on the camera image.
Park assist lines
Examples of how the park assist lines can be displayed for the driver.
Park assist lines show the intended route for the car's external dimensions with the current steer-ing wheel angle - this facilitates parallel parking,reversing into tight spaces and when connectinga trailer. The lines on the screen are projected as if they were at ground level behind the car and responddirectly to steering wheel movements, showingthe driver the path the car will take - also whenthe car is turning. These park assist lines include the car's mostprotruding parts, e.g. towbar, door mirrors andcorners.
NOTE
Park assist lines are not shown when zoom- ing in.
NOTE
•
When reversing with a trailer which is not connected electrically to the car, the lines on the display show the route the
car will
take - not the trailer.
• The screen shows no lines when a trailer is connected electrically to the car's elec-trical system.
IMPORTANT
Remember that when rear camera view is selected, the centre display only shows thearea behind the car. Keep an eye on the sidesand front of the car when turning the steeringwheel while reversing. The same applies vice versa - note what hap- pens to the rear parts of the car when thefront camera view is selected. Note that the guide lines show the
shortest
route. Therefore, pay extra attention to the car's sides so that they do not go against/over something when the steering wheel isturned when driving forward or that the frontsweeps against/over something when thesteering wheel is turned when reversing.

Limitations of the Park Assist Camera

The Park Assist Camera function may have limi- tations in certain situations.
The Park Assist Camera cannot see all objects in every situation - a driver should be aware of thefollowing limitations:
NOTE
A bike carrier or other accessory mounted on the rear of the car could obscure the cam-era's view.
Blind sectorsPay attention to the possibility that, even if it only looks like a relatively small part of the image isobscured, it could be a relatively large sector thatis hidden from view. Obstacles could thereby goundetected until the car is very close to theobstacle.
There are "blind" sectors between the cameras' fields of vision.
In 360° view obstacles/objects can “vanish” in the gaps between the individual cameras.
Defective cameraIf a camera sector is black andcontains this symbol then itmeans that the camera is outof order. The following illustra-tion shows an example.

DRIVER SUPPORT

The car's left-hand camera is out of order.
Black camera sector
A black camera sector is also shown in the fol- lowing instances, but then without the symbol for
defective camera:
• open door
• open tailgate
• folded-in door mirror.
Light conditionsThe camera image is adjusted automatically according to prevailing light conditions. Becauseof this, the image may vary slightly in brightnessand quality. Poor light conditions can result inreduced image quality.
MaintenanceClean camera lenses regularly with lukewarmwater and car shampoo - be careful not toscratch the lenses.
NOTE
Keep the camera lens clear of dirt, snow and ice to ensure optimum function. This is partic-ularly important in poor light.

Park Assist Pilot *
Active parking assistance (Park Assist Pilot - PAP) helps the driver to park in or leave a park-ing space.
PAP checks first if a space is sufficiently big and thereafter helps the driver to turn the steeringwheel and manoeuvre the car into the space. The centre display indicates with symbols, graph- ics and text the various operations to be carriedout and when to do so.
NOTE
The PAP function measures the space and steers the car - the driver's task is to:
• keep a close watch around the car
• follow the instructions in the centre dis-play
• change gear (reverse/forward)
• control and maintain a safe speed
• brake and stop.
