Mercedes-Benz GLC : 360° camera / Function of the surround view camera
The surround view camera is a system that consists
of four cameras. The cameras cover the
immediate vehicle surroundings. The system
assists you when you are parking or at exits with
reduced visibility, for example.
The views of the surround view camera are
always available when driving forwards up to a
speed of approx. 10 mph (16 km/h) and when
backing up.
The surround view camera is only an aid and
may show a distorted view of obstacles, show
them incorrectly or not show them at all. It is not
a substitute for your attention to the surroundings.
The responsibility for safe maneuvering and
parking remains with you. Make sure that there
are no persons, animals or objects etc., in the
maneuvering area while maneuvering and parking.
The system evaluates images from the following
cameras:
- Rear view camera
- Front camera
- Two side cameras in the outside mirrors
You can open the cover of the rear view camera
manually.
