If you activate a different function on the
driver’s COMAND system controls while
reverse parking or parallel parking, the
image from the rear view camera is
interrupted.
To reactivate the rear view camera, take
the vehicle out of reverse gear and then re-
engage reverse gear again.
Night View Assist
G
Warning!
The Night View Assist is only an aid to
support you while driving and cannot
substitute your careful attention. Do not
rely on the display of the Night View Assist;
instead, continue to look through the
windshield. You are always responsible for
safety and must drive in accordance with
traffic conditions. Otherwise, you could
endanger yourself and others.
If it is foggy, raining or snowing, the clarity
of the Night View Assist image on the
multifunction display may be diminished.
The Night View Assist illuminates the road
with infrared light in addition to the normal
headlamps.
A camera at the top of the windshield
measures the infrared light and shows a
black-and-white image on the multifunction
display. The image on the multifunction
display corresponds to a road lit up by high-
beam headlamps.
G
Warning!
The Night View Assist cannot record
objects immediately in front of or next to
the vehicle. When maneuvering, continue
to look through the windshield. Make sure
no persons or animals are in the area in
which you are maneuvering. You could
otherwise injure them.
The Night View Assist image on the
multifunction display is not impaired by the
headlamps of approaching vehicles or if you
cannot switch on the high beams due to
oncoming traffic.
As a result, you can better follow the course
of the road and detect obstacles earlier on.
i
Infrared light is invisible to the human eye
and can therefore remain permanently
switched on without blinding oncoming
traffic.
The camera is at the top of the windshield.
