Reversing camera
General notes
Rear view cameraCis an optical parking andmaneuvering aid. It shows the area behindyour vehicle with guide lines in the multimediasystem.
The area behind the vehicle is displayed as amirror image, as in the rear view mirror.
iThe text shown in the multimedia systemdisplay depends on the language setting.The following are examples of rear viewcamera displays in the multimedia system.
Important safety notes
The rear view camera is only an aid. It is not areplacement for your attention to your immedi-ate surroundings. You are always responsiblefor safe maneuvering and parking. Make surethat there are no persons, animals or objectsin the maneuvering area when you are maneu-vering or parking.
Under the following circumstances, the rearview camera will not function, or will functionin a limited manner:
Rif the trunk lid is open
Rin heavy rain, snow or fog
Rat night or in very dark places
Rif the camera is exposed to very bright light
Rif the area is lit by fluorescent bulbs or LEDlighting (the display may flicker)
Rif there is a sudden change in temperature,e.g. when driving into a heated garage inwinter
Rif the camera lens is dirty or obstructed.Observe the notes on cleaning(Ypage 250)
Rif the rear of your vehicle is damaged. In thiscase, have the camera position and settingchecked at a qualified specialist workshop.
The field of vision and other functions of therear view camera may be restricted due toadditional accessories on the rear of the vehi-cle (e.g. license plate holder, bicycle rack).
On vehicles with height-adjustable chassis,leaving the standard height can result in inac-curacies in the guide lines, depending on tech-nical conditions.
iThe contrast of the display may be affec-ted by the sudden presence of sunlight orother light sources, e.g. when exiting agarage. Pay particular attention in this situa-tion.
iIf usability is severely restricted, e.g. dueto pixel errors, have the display repaired orreplaced.
iThe rear view camera is protected fromraindrops and dust by means of a flap. Whenthe rear view camera is activated, this flapopens.
The flap closes again when:
Ryou have finished the maneuvering proc-ess
Ryou switch off the engine
Ryou open the trunk
Observe the notes on cleaning(Ypage 250).
For technical reasons, the flap may remainopen briefly after the rear view camera hasbeen deactivated.

ATTENTION ASSIST assesses your level of fati-gue or lapses in concentration by taking thefollowing criteria into account:
Ryour personal driving style, e.g. steeringcharacteristics
Rjourney details, e.g. time of day and lengthof journey
The functionality of ATTENTION ASSIST isrestricted and warnings may be delayed or notoccur at all:
Rif the road condition is poor, e.g. if the sur-face is uneven or if there are potholes
Rif there is a strong side wind
Rif you have adopted a sporty driving stylewith high cornering speeds or high rates ofacceleration
Rif you are predominantly driving slower than50 mph (80 km/h) or faster than 112 mph(180 km/h)
Rif you are currently using COMAND or mak-ing a telephone call with it
Rif the time has been set incorrectly
Rin active driving situations, such as whenyou change lanes or change your speed
ATTENTION ASSIST is only an aid to the driver.It might not always recognize fatigue orincreasing inattentiveness in time or fail torecognize them at all. The system is not a sub-stitute for a well-rested and attentive driver.
Warning and display messages in the
multifunction display
XActivate ATTENTION ASSIST using the on-board computer (Ypage 175).
If ATTENTION ASSIST is active, you will bewarned no sooner than 20 minutes afteryour journey has begun. You then hear anintermittent warning tone twice and theATTENTION ASSIST: Take a Break!ATTENTION ASSIST: Take a Break!mes-sage appears in the multifunction display.
XIf necessary, take a break.
XPress thevor8button to confirmthe message.
On long journeys, take regular breaks in goodtime to allow yourself to rest properly. If youdo not take a break and ATTENTION ASSISTstill detects increasing lapses in concentra-tion, you will be warned again after 15 minutesat the earliest.
ATTENTION ASSIST is reset when you continueyour journey and starts assessing your tired-ness again if:
Ryou switch off the engine
Ryou take off your seat belt and open thedriver's door, e.g. for a change of drivers orto take a break
When ATTENTION ASSIST is deactivated, the

Always pay particular attention to the traffic
situation and keep within the lane, espe-
cially if Lane Keeping Assist alerts you.
GWARNING
The Lane Keeping Assist warning does not
return the vehicle to the original lane. There
is a risk of an accident.
You should always steer, brake or accelerate
yourself, in particular if warned by Lane
Keeping Assist.
If you fail to adapt your driving style, LaneKeeping Assist can neither reduce the risk ofan accident nor override the laws of physics.Lane Keeping Assist cannot take into accountthe road, traffic and weather conditions. LaneKeeping Assist is merely an aid. You areresponsible for the distance to the vehicle infront, for vehicle speed, for braking in goodtime and for staying in your lane.
The Lane Keeping Assist does not keep thevehicle in the lane.
The system may be impaired or may not func-tion if:
Rthere is poor visibility, e.g. due to insuffi-cient illumination of the road, or due tosnow, rain, fog or spray
Rthere is glare, e.g. from oncoming traffic,the sun or reflections (e.g. when the roadsurface is wet)
Rthe windshield is dirty, fogged up, damagedor covered, for instance by a sticker, in thevicinity of the camera
Rthere are no, several or unclear lane mark-ings for a lane, e.g. in areas with road con-struction work
Rthe lane markings are worn away, dark orcovered up, e.g. by dirt or snow
Rthe distance to the vehicle in front is toosmall and the lane markings thus cannot bedetected
Rthe lane markings change quickly, e.g. lanesbranch off, cross one another or merge
Rthe road is narrow and winding
Rthere are strong shadows cast on the road
Switching on Lane Keeping Assist
XSwitch on Lane Keeping Assist using the on-board computer; to do so, selectStandardStandardorAdaptiveAdaptive(Ypage 175).If you drive at speeds above 40 mph(60 km/h) and lane markings are detected,the lines in the assistance graphics display(Ypage 175) are shown in green. LaneKeeping Assist is ready for use.
Standard
IfStandardStandardis selected, no warning vibrationoccurs if:
Ryou switch on the turn signals. In this event,the warnings are suppressed for a certainperiod of time
Ra driving safety system intervenes, such as
ABS, BAS or ESP®
Adaptive
WhenAdaptiveAdaptiveis selected, no warning vibra-tion occurs if:
Ryou switch on the turn signals. In this event,the warnings are suppressed for a certainperiod 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 anobstacle 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 lanemarking, the system recognizes certain condi-tions and warns you accordingly.
The warning vibration occurs earlier if:
Ryou approach the outer lane marking on abend
Rthe road has very wide lanes, e.g. a freeway
Rthe system recognizes solid lane markings
The warning vibration occurs later if:
Rthe road has narrow lanes
Ryou cut the corner on a bend

General notes
The multimedia system section in this Opera-tor's Manual describes the basic principles foroperation. More information can be found inthe Digital Operator's Manual.
Important safety notes
GWARNING
If you operate information systems and com-
munication equipment integrated in the
vehicle when driving, you may be distracted
from the traffic situation. You could also
lose control of the vehicle. There is a risk of
an accident.
Only operate this equipment when the traffic
situation permits. If you are not sure that
this is possible, park the vehicle paying
attention to traffic conditions and operate
the equipment when the vehicle is station-
ary.
You must observe the legal requirements forthe country in which you are currently drivingwhen operating the multimedia system.
The multimedia system calculates the route tothe destination without taking the followinginto account, for example:
Rtraffic lights
Rstop and yield signs
Rparking or stopping restrictions
Rroad narrowing
Rother road and traffic rules and regulations
The multimedia system may give incorrect nav-igation recommendations if the actual street/traffic situation does not correspond with thedigital map's data.
For example:
Ra diverted route
Rthe road layout or the direction of a one-waystreet has been changed
For this reason, you must always observe roadand traffic rules and regulations during yourjourney. Road and traffic rules and regulationsalways have priority over multimedia systemdriving recommendations.
Navigation announcements are intended todirect you while driving without diverting yourattention from the road and driving.
Please always use this feature instead of con-sulting the map display for directions. Lookingat the icons or map display can distract youfrom traffic conditions and driving, andincrease the risk of an accident.
This equipment complies with FCC radiationexposure limits set forth for uncontrolledequipment and meets the FCC radio frequency(RF) Exposure Guidelines in Supplement C toOET65.
This equipment has very low levels of RFenergy that is deemed to comply without maxi-mum permissive exposure evaluation (MPE).However, it is recommended to install it at adistance of at least 8 inches (approx. 20 cm)between the radiation source and a person'sbody (not including limbs such as hands,wrists, feet and legs).
GWARNING
Modifications to electronic components,
their software as well as wiring can impair
their function and/or the function of other
networked components. In particular, sys-
tems relevant to safety could also be affec-
ted. As a result, these may no longer func-
tion as intended and/or jeopardize the oper-
ating safety of the vehicle. There is an
increased risk of an accident and injury.
Never tamper with the wiring as well as elec-
tronic components or their software. You
should have all work to electrical and elec-
tronic equipment carried out at a qualified
specialist workshop.
Function restrictions
For safety reasons, some functions are restric-ted or unavailable while the vehicle is inmotion. You will notice this, for example,because either you will not be able to selectcertain menu items or a message will appearto this effect.
