Segments in the visual display
The red segments in front of and behind the vehicle > fig. 146 help you to determine the distance between you and an obstacle.

WARNING
- The MMI display cannot show, or cannot adequately show, certain objects (such as small posts or grating), recesses in the ground and protruding parts on another car.
- Only use the rearview camera to assist you if it shows a good, clear picture. For example, the image may be affected by the sun shining into the lens, dirt on the lens or if there is a defect.
- Use the rearview camera only with the rear lid completely closed. Make sure any objects you may have mounted on the rear lid do not block the rearview camera.

- The visual display is shown in the illustration of the rearview camera. This display shows where the sensors have detected an obstacle.
- You can change the volume and pitch of the signals as well as the display.
- Please follow the instructions for towing a trailer.
