Controls in detail Driving systems Night View Assist* The image on the multifunction display corresponds to a road lit up by high-beam headlamps. Warning! The Night View Assist image on the multifunction display is not impaired by the headlamps of approaching vehicles if you cannot switch on the high beams due to oncoming traffic As a result, you can better follow the course of the road and detect obstacles earlier on. Warning! G Night View Assist is only an aid to support you while driving and cannot substitute your careful attention. Do not rely on the display of the Night View Assist; instead, continue to look through the windshield. You are always responsible for safety and must drive in accordance with traffic conditions. Otherwise, you could endanger yourself and others. If it is foggy, raining or snowing, the clarity of the Night View Assist image on the multifunction display may be diminished. G Night View Assist cannot record objects immediately in front of or next to the vehicle. When maneuvering, continue to look through the windshield. Make sure that no persons or animals are in or near the area in which you are maneuvering. i Infrared light is invisible to the human eye and can therefore remain permanently switched on without blinding oncoming traffic. The camera is at the top of the windshield. Night View Assist illuminates the road with infrared light in addition to the normal headlamps. A camera at the top of the windshield measures the infrared light and shows a black-and-white image on the multifunction display. 1 Night View Assist camera 420
