Cameras

The lenses of the Top View cameras are on the
undersides of the exterior mirror housings.
The presence of dirt can impair image quality.
Clean the lens with a moist, nonabrasive cloth.

Side View*

The concept

Side View provides an early look at cross traffic
at blind driveways and intersections. Road
users concealed by obstacles to the left and
right of the vehicle can only be detected from
the driver's seat at the last minute. To improve
visibility, two cameras in the front of the vehicle
record the traffic situation on each side.

System limits

The maximum detection range of the cameras
is 330 ft/100 m.

Display

The images from both cameras are shown
simultaneously on the Control Display.

Check the traffic situation around the
vehicle on blind driveways and intersec-

tions with your own eyes. Otherwise, an acci-
dent could result from road users or objects
located outside the picture area of the Side
View cameras.

Automatic deactivation

The system switches off: above approx. 9 mph/
15 km/h. If needed, switch the system back on.

Switching on/off manually
