IMPORTANT: BMW Night Vision is not a substitute for the personal appraisal of the traffic situation.

Option 611 "BMW Night Vision" is available for the first time in the BMW 7-Series from 10/2005.

BMW Night Vision is not able to replace the personal appraisal of visual conditions or the traffic situation. Objects outside the camera's field of vision cannot be detected. Objects already indicated may no longer be in the camera's field of vision. Decisions must always be made on the basis of personal appraisal - anything else constitutes a safety risk.

BMW Night Vision shows a frozen image for a short time at given intervals. The frozen image is marked with a small square on the left-hand edge of the screen. During this time, it is not possible to display the current image. For this reason, decisions must always be made on the basis of the personal view to the front - anything else constitutes a safety risk.
