Warning!
Please note that objects which do not touch
the ground, such as the bumper of a vehicle
parked behind you, a trailer hitch, or the
back of a truck, may appear to be further
away than they actually are. In this case,
you should not use the guide lines to judge
distance. The use of the guide lines to judge
distance increases the risk of impacting the
objects.
G
Warning!
Make sure no persons or animals are in or
near the area in which you are parking/
maneuvering. Otherwise, they could be
injured.
G
Warning!
The rear view camera is a supplement
system. It is not intended to, nor does it
replace, the need for extreme care. The
responsibility during parking and other
driving maneuvers always remains with the
driver.
The rear view camera may show obstacles
with a distorted perspective, incorrectly or
not at all.
Special attention must be paid to objects
outside of the camera’s field of view such
as those located very close to or below the
rear bumper, or above the recessed grip of
the luggage compartment lid. Such objects
may not be detected by the system and can
damage the vehicle.
The rear view camera does not warn you
about impending collisions with objects.
The driver is always responsible for safety
and must continue to pay attention to the
immediate surroundings while parking or
maneuvering the vehicle. This applies not
only to the area behind the vehicle, but also
to the area in front of and to the sides of
the vehicle. Failure to do so could result in
injury to persons and/or damage to the
vehicle or other property. We also
recommend that the driver uses the
Parktronic system, Park Assist, or
Advanced Parking Guidance when parking
or maneuvering the vehicle.
