Parking view
Accessing the parking view
In most cases, the parking view opens automatically when you need it. You can also access it by opening the Camera app in the contextual bar or in the app library .
The parking view closes automatically when you are driving above a certain speed. After parking, the parking view closes when you leave your car.
Features in the parking view
- Camera views that also provides visual guidance and obstacle detection
- Rear Auto Brake, which can provide automatic braking for obstacles while reversing at low speeds
- Park Pilot Assist, which can actively steer the car in and out of parking spaces.
Camera views
Front | A camera at the very front of the car provides the front view, along with a top view. | |
3D | The car combines front, rear and side camera views to show the car in its surroundings. The standard perspective is to show the car from the top, but you can also change this view to show other perspectives. | |
Rear | A camera at the back of the car provides the rear view, along with a top view. |
Adjusting the 3D view
You can adjust the 3D view by dragging your fingers around to change the angle. You can also zoom in and out by pinching your fingers. Adjusting the view makes it easier for you to have a closer look in different angles and see things clearer in the parking view.
Tip
Recentre the 3D view
You can always recentre the view by pressing the 3D view symbol. This allows you to return to the default 3D view again.
Automatic zoom in and out
If you approach an obstacle, the car can automatically zoom in on the part of the car that's closest to the obstacle. If you drive away from the obstacle or if the obstacle is removed, the car can automatically zoom out again.
Obstacle and distance detection
The parking view can provide visual as well as sound alerts if your car detects any obstacles in your close surroundings.
These alerts change if you go beyond a recommended stopping point. The colour of the visual indication shifts towards red and the sound changes when you get closer to the obstacle.
Important
Driver responsibility
Obstacle and distance detection is a supplement to safe driving practices. It does not reduce the need or responsibility of the driver to operate the car as safely as possible.
The driver is always responsible for paying attention to the car's surroundings and ensuring that it's safe to manoeuver the car.
Detection limitations
The car's obstacle and distance detection capabilities have limitations. Read the separate section covering detection of car surroundings and traffic before using features that rely on these capabilities.
Note
Camera calibration
After servicing your car's parking cameras, they can sometimes take a while to re-calibrate themselves. This can lead to certain features, such as the parking view, being unavailable for a short time after having the car serviced.
