Malfunction
A Check Control message appears in the
instrument panel, refer to page 82.
The areas in front of and behind the vehicle
appear in shaded form on the Control Display.
PDC is malfunctioning. Have the system
checked.
In order to assure full functionality:
> Keep sensors clean and free of ice.
> Do not spray the sensors with high-pres-
sure cleaners for long periods and keep the
spray nozzle at least 12 in/30 cm away from
them.
Surround View*
The concept
Surround View encompasses the following sys-
tems:
> Top View
*, refer to page 90
> Side View
*, refer to page 92
> Rear view camera
*, refer to page 93
It provides assistance when parking and
maneuvering and at blind driveways and inter-
sections.
Top View*
The concept
Top View assists you when parking and maneu-
vering. To accomplish this, the door region and
road surface region are shown on the Control
Display.
Detection
Detection is carried out by two cameras inte-
grated into the exterior mirror and the rear view
camera.
The range is:
> Approx. 7 ft/2 m to the side
> Approx. 7 ft/2 m to the rear
Obstacles up to the height of the exterior mir-
rors are thus detected in a timely fashion.
System limitations
In the following situations, the function of Top
View is limited:
> When a door is open
> When the liftgate is open
> When the exterior mirrors are folded in
> Under poor lighting conditions
The arrows next to the vehicle are displayed in a
shaded form on the Control Display and a sym-
bol appears at the corresponding location on
the vehicle.
Also make a direct visual check of the
traffic situation around the vehicle. Other-
wise, there could be a risk of accident, for exam-
ple due to other road users or objects outside
the image range of the camera.<
Automatic activation
With the engine running or the ignition switched
on, shift the selector lever into position R.
The images from Top View and PDC are dis-
played when the system has been switched on
using iDrive.
Automatic deactivation
The system switches off and the LED goes out:
> After approx. 165 ft/50 m when driving for-
ward
> At speeds over approx. 25 mph/35 km/h
when driving forward
Switch the system back on as needed.
