Rear view camera*
The concept
The rear view camera in the liftgate displays the
area behind your vehicle on the Control Display.

with direct vision, as otherwise danger of an
accident could result, for example, from road
users or objects located outside the picture
area of the rear view camera.<

Driver assistance functions
The following functions can improve the effect
of the rear view camera depending on the situa-
tion.
They can only be activated when the liftgate is
completely closed.
Pathway lines
The pathway lines are shown in the picture of
the rear view camera. They help you to estimate
the space required when parking and maneu-
vering on level roads.
To estimate the space required, turn the steer-
ing wheel so that the pathway lines guide into
the parking space or the maneuvering area you
have chosen.
The pathway lines are dependent on the current
steering angle and are continuously adjusted to
the steering wheel movements.
Turning lines
The static turning lines are displayed in the pic-
ture of the rear view camera and show you the
course of the smallest possible turning circle on
level roads.
