Note: the screen 2 can be positioned left to right or top to bottom.

Special features

The camera is equipped with an automatic de-icer which is activated when the temperature is below approximately 8°C.

Make sure that the camera 1 is not obscured (by dirt, mud, snow, condensation, etc.).

warning

This function is an additional aid. It cannot, therefore, under any circumstances replace the vigilance or the responsibility of the driver.

The driver should always be ready for sudden incidents while driving: always ensure that there are no small, narrow moving obstacles (such as a child, animal, pushchair, bicycle, stone, post, etc.) in the blind spot when manoeuvring.

Operation

The camera's field of vision does not cover the entire area behind the vehicle, particularly the blind spot area A.

On vehicles equipped with the Stop and Start function, the display remains active when the engine is on standby Stop and Start function.

Objects which appear on the edge of screen 2 may be deformed.

In very bright light (snow, vehicle in sunshine, etc.), the camera view may be partially disturbed.

In low brightness or poor weather, the image on the screen may be distorted.
