Is there a way to turn on the 360 camera while parking? We currently put vehicle in reverse then drive but there must be a one-button solution, what am I missing?

Thanks!

With a W166 and COMAND, go to Vehicle and there is a sub-menu for 360 camera. Page 48 of the COMAND manual.

Yes you can assign the camera function to the "star" button on your centre console. It was that by default when I bought my GL. Comes in very handy very often. One touch.

Perfect, will do this. Thank you!!

When I pull into a parking spot, I press the star while in Drive and I get the front camera. I press the Comand button and that gives me the 360 view which tells me how well (or poorly) I am positioned between the lines.

Press the "SYS" button for 3 seconds.

Tried it today and pressing the star button changes the display to show the clock. How do you set this function to display the 360 camera? Thanks!

Interested as well. First post. Woohoo!

Press and hold the "vehicle" button on the center stack button pad. The camera turns on in a W166. The "vehicle" button is near the red and green telephone buttons.

Will look for that button. The “star” button turns the display to a Clock.

This!!! Press and hold System for 3 seconds. Front view pops up. Click down on the round control knob and 360 camera pops up

The star button is programmable. You have to program it to show the camera, as apparently it is currently set to show the clock.

Both star buttons are actually programmable. There is a hollow star on the right and a solid star on the left of your COMAND wheel.

Go into the settings in Comand (I think it's under VEHICLE) and you can select "favourites" or "preferences" or something like that.

Then you'll see a list and you can assign one item to each star button. My solid star is programmed to be 360' camera, and the hollow star is Fuel Consumption.

Then just press the solid star and you'll get the camera at any time you are at low speed (at higher speeds you'll get a message saying not available)

Boom, this worked great! We have a 2015 so only one Star to program as a favorite but conceptually it works the same.

Thank you.
