When approaching solid objects
The reference lines for distance and
vehicle width are intended to indicate
the distance to a flat object such as a
level, flat road surface. This may make
the distance to a projecting object
shown on the screen differ from the
actual distance to the projecting object.
Do not use them as a guide to
distances to solid objects.
Example: On the screen the point B
appears the nearest, then the point C
and A in order of distance. The point A
and B actually are the same distances
from the vehicle, and the point C is
farther off than the point A and B.
WARNING
260)The responsibility for parking and
other manoeuvres is always and in any
case charged to the driver. While carrying
out these manoeuvres, always make sure
that no people (especially children) or
animals are in the area concerned. The
camera is an aid for the driver, but the
driver must never allow his/her attention to
lapse during potentially dangerous
manoeuvres, even those executed at low
speeds. Always keep a slow speed, so as
to promptly brake in the case of obstacles.
261)The rear view camera is an assistance
system that enables the driver to check for
obstacles behind the vehicle. Its range of
view is limited, so you should not overly
depend on it. Please drive just as carefully
as you would if the vehicle did not have the
rear view camera.
262)Be sure to visually confirm safety
around the vehicle with your own eyes. Do
not depend entirely on the rear view
camera.
IMPORTANT
161)It is vital, for correct operation, that
the camera is always kept clean and free
from mud, dirt, snow or ice. Be careful not
to scratch or damage the camera while
cleaning it. Avoid using dry, rough or hard
cloths. The camera must be washed using
clean water, with the addition of car
shampoo if necessary. In washing stations
which use steam or high-pressure jets,
clean the camera quickly, keeping the
nozzle more than 10 cm away from the
sensors. Do not apply stickers to the
camera.
162)The rear view camera has a special
lens that can make objects shown on the
screen appear to be closer or further away
than they actually are.
163)Due to the number of people in the
vehicle, the fuel quantity, the weight and
positioning of luggage, and/or the condition
of the road surface, the lines in the view
from the rear view camera may not be
accurately positioned relative to the actual
road. Use the reference lines only as a
guideline, and always do a safety check of
your behind and surroundings directly while
driving.
