RThe doors are open.
RThe side mirrorsarefolded in.
RThe trunk lid is open.
RThere is heavyrain, snow orfog.
RThe ambient light conditions are poor, e.g. atnight.
RThe camera lens is obstructed, dirty orfog‐ged up.

Do not usethe 360° Camera under such circum‐stances.You couldotherwise injureothers orcollide with objects when parking or maneuver‐ingthevehicle.
Onvehicles with height-adjustable suspension orifthevehicle is carrying a heavy load, leavingthestandard height canresult in inaccuracies intheguide lines and inthe display ofthegeneratedimages, depending ontechnical conditions.
Thefield of vision andother functions ofthecamerasystem may berestricted duetoaddi‐tional attachments onthevehicle (e.g. licenseplate bracket, bicyclerack).

Maximum tire load:the maximum tire load isthe maximum permissibleweight in kilograms orlbsfor whicha tire is approved.
Maximum permissible tire pressure:maxi‐mum permissible tire pressurefor one tire.
Maximum load on one tire:maximum load onone tire. This is calculatedbydividingthe maxi‐mum axle load of one axlebytwo.
PSI (pounds per square inch):standard unit ofmeasurementfor tire pressure.
Aspectratio:ratio between tire height and tirewidth in percent.
Tirepressure:pressure insidethe tire applyingan outwardforcetoeverysquare inch ofthe tire.The tire pressure is specified in pounds persquare inch (psi), in kilopascals (kPa) or in bar.The tire pressure should only be corrected whenthe tires are cold.
Cold tire pressure:the tires are cold whenthevehicle has been parkedfor at least3 hours
without direct sunlight onthe tires orthevehiclehas been drivenfor lessthan 1 mile (1.6 km).
Tirecontact surface:the part ofthe tirethatcomes into contact with theroad.
Tirebead:the purpose ofthe tire bead istoensurethatthe tire sits securely onthe wheelrim. There are several wire cores inthe tire beadtopreventthe tire fromchanging length onthewheelrim.
