Heat image

For safety reasons, when driving at speeds
above approx. 3 mph/5 km/h and in low ambient
light, the image is only displayed when the low
beams are switched on.
A still image is displayed at regular intervals for
a fraction of a second.
Night Vision with pedestrian detection is not
available on the rear screen.

Pedestrian detection

Environmental influences can limit the availabil‐
ity of pedestrian detection. If pedestrian detec‐
tion is not available, a symbol is displayed in the
heat image.
This symbol disappears when the function be‐
comes available again.
The pedestrian detection and warning system
only operates in darkness and only when a heat
image is displayed.
