The rear view camera is an optical parking
aid. It shows you the area behind the
vehicle in the COMAND system display
when reverse gear R is engaged, for
example during parallel parking.
To function properly, the camera lens must
be free of dirt, ice, snow, and slush. Clean
the camera lens regularly, being careful
not to scratch or damage the camera lens,
see “Cleaning the rear view camera lens”
(
page 319).
The rear view camera is on the tailgate
above the rear window wiper.
