Plus: Panorama View

Principle

Panorama View gives you an earlier view of crossing traffic at blind driveway exits and intersections.

General information

Yellow lines in the screen display mark the front and rear ends of the vehicle.
The camera image shows different levels of distortion in some areas and is thus not suitable for distance estimations.

Depending on the equipment version, the function can only be used when driving forward. Additional information:
