Technology for driving comfort and safety

PDC Park Distance Control*

The concept

The PDC assists you with maneuvering in tight

parking spaces. Acoustic signals and a visual

indicator

warn you of the presence of an object

behind your vehicle. To measure the distance,

there are four ultrasonic sensors in either

bumper.

These sensors have a range of approx. 6.5 ft/

2 m. However, an acoustic warning does not

sound until an object is approx. 24 in/60 cm

from the corner sensors, or approx. 5 ft/1.50 m

from the center sensors.

However, an acoustic warning does not sound

until an object is closer than approx. 24 in/

60 cm to the corner sensors, or closer than

approx. 5 ft/1.50 m to the center sensors.

PDC is a parking aid that can indicate

objects when they are approached

slowly, as is usually the case when parking.

Avoid approaching an object at high speed, oth-

erwise physical circumstances may lead to the

system warning being issued too late.<

Switching on automatically

With the engine running or the ignition switched

on, the system is activated automatically after

approx. 1 second when you engage reverse

gear or move the automatic transmission selec-

tor lever to position R. Wait this short period

before driving.

Signal tones

When nearing an object, its position is indicated

correspondingly by an interval tone. As the dis-

tance between vehicle and object decreases,

the intervals between the tones become

shorter. If the distance to the nearest object

falls to below roughly 1 ft/30 cm, then a contin-

uous tone sounds.

An interval tone is interrupted after approx.

3seconds

> if you remain in front of an object that has

been detected by only one of the corner

sensors

> if you are driving parallel to a wall.

Malfunction

The indicator lamp in the instrument

cluster comes on. PDC is malfunc-

tioning. A message appears on the

Control Display. Have the system checked.

To avoid this problem, keep the sensors clean

and free of ice or snow in order to ensure that

they will continue to operate effectively. When

using a high-pressure cleaner, do not spray the

sensors for extended periods of time and only

from a distance of at least 4 in/10 cm.

PDC with optical warning

You can also have the system show distances

to objects on the Control Display. The contours

of distant objects are shown on the Control Dis-

play even before the acoustic signal sounds.

The setting is stored for the remote control cur-

rently in use.

iDrive, for operating principle refer to page 16.

1. Open the start menu.

2. Press the controller to open the menu.

3. Select "Vehicle settings" and press the

controller.

4. If necessary, move the highlight marker to

the uppermost field. Turn the controller

until "PDC" is selected and press the con-

troller.
