PDC Park Distance Control*

The concept

The PDC assists you when you are parking.

Signal tones and a visual display

* indicate

the current distance to an object behind or

in front of your vehicle. To measure the dis-

tance, there are four ultrasonic sensors in

each bumper. The sensors at the front and

at the two rear corners have a range of

approx. 20 in/50 cm; the rear middle sen-

sors have approx. 5 ft/1.50 m.

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,

as otherwise the physical circumstances

would mean that the system warning was

too late.<

Automatic mode

In ignition key position 2, the system auto-

matically assumes operational status after

a few seconds each time you engage

reverse gear or selector-lever position R.

Wait this short period before driving.<

The system is automatically deacti-

vated once the vehicle travels approx.

165 ft/50 m or exceeds a speed of roughly

20 mph/30 km/h; the indicator lamp goes

out. You can reactivate the system manu-

ally as needed.

Manual mode

With the ignition key in position 2, press the

button; the indicator lamp lights up.

Deactivating manual mode

Press the button again; the indicator lamp

goes out.

Signal tones

The signal indicating the distance to the

nearest obstacle is directional. Thus, an

object detected to the left rear of the vehi-

cle will be indicated by a signal tone from

the left rear speaker, etc. As the distance

between vehicle and object decreases, the

intervals between the tones become

shorter. The signal tone becomes continu-

ous once the distance to the nearest object

falls to below roughly 1 ft/30 cm.

The warning signal is canceled after

approx. 3 seconds if you are moving paral-

lel to a wall.

Malfunctions

The indicator lamp within the button

flashes and a message appears on the

Control Display. PDC has failed. Switch off

PDC. Have the system checked.

As a preventive measure, keep the sensors

clean and free of ice or snow in order to

ensure that they will continue to operate

effectively.

PDC with visual warning*

You also enjoy the option of having the sys-

tem show distances to objects on the Con-

trol Display. The Control Display will also
