360° camera (surround view)
General notes
The 360° camera is a system consisting of
four cameras.
The system analyzes images from the follow-
ing cameras:
R Rear view camera
R Front camera
R Two cameras in the exterior rear view mir-
rors
The cameras capture the immediate sur-
roundings of the vehicle. The system sup-
ports you, e.g. when parking or if vision is
restricted at an exit.
The 360° camera images can be shown in full
screen mode or in seven different split-screen
views on the COMAND display. A split-screen
view also includes a top view of the vehicle.
This view is calculated from the data supplied
by the installed cameras (virtual camera).
The seven split-screen views are:
R top view and picture from the rear view
camera (130° viewing angle)
R
top view and picture from the front camera
(without displaying the maximum steering
wheel angle)
R
top view and enlarged rear view
R
top view and enlarged front view
R top view and trailer view (vehicles with
trailer tow hitch)
R top view and rear-view images from the
exterior mirror cameras (rear wheel view)
R
top view and forward-view images from the
exterior mirror cameras (front wheel view)
i The top view and trailer view are available
for vehicles equipped with a trailer tow
hitch.
When the function is active and you shift the
transmission from position D or R to N, you
see the previous view in the COMAND dis-
play. The dynamic guidelines are hidden.
When you change between transmission
positions D and R, you see the previously
selected front or rear view.
Important safety notes
The 360° camera is only an aid. It is not a
replacement for your attention to your imme-

ble for safe maneuvering and parking. When
maneuvering or parking, make sure that there
are no persons, animals or objects in the area
in which you are maneuvering.

areas:
R

R very close to the front bumper
R very close to the rear bumper

R in close range above the handle on the
trunk lid

You are always responsible for safety, and
must always pay attention to your surround-
ings when parking and maneuvering. This
applies to the areas behind, in front of and
beside the vehicle. You could otherwise
endanger yourself and others.
The 360° camera will not function or will
function in a limited manner:
