Technology for comfort, convenience and

safety

PDC Park Distance Control*

The concept

The PDC assists you when you are parking.

Acoustic signals and an optical display

*

alert

you to the approach of an object from behind

your vehicle. To measure the distance, there

are four ultrasonic sensors in each bumper.

The range of these sensors is approx. 7 ft/2 m.

However, an acoustic warning first sounds for

the sensors at the front and at the two rear cor-

ners at approx. 24 in/60 cm, and for the center

rear sensors at approx. 5 ft/1.50 m.

PDC is a parking aid that can indicate the

presence of objects when they are being

approached slowly, as is usually the case when

parking. Avoid approaching an object at high

speed; otherwise, the physical circumstances

could cause the system warning to be activated

too late.<

Switching on automatically

The system starts to operate approx. 1 second

after you shift into reverse gear or move the

selector lever into position R with the engine

running or the ignition switched on.

Wait this short period before driving.

Switching on manually

Press the button; the LED lights up.

Switching off manually

Press the button again; the LED goes out.

After driving approx. 165 ft/50 m or at over

approx. 20 mph/30 km/h, the system is

switched off and the LED goes out. You can

reactivate the system manually as needed.

Signal tones

An intermittent signal indicates the distance of

the vehicle from an object being approached.

Thus, an object detected to the left rear of the

vehicle 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. If

the distance to the nearest object falls to below

roughly 1 ft/30 cm, then a continuous tone

sounds.

An intermittent tone is interrupted after approx.

3seconds:

> if you remain in front of an object that was

only detected by one of the corner sensors

> if you drive parallel to a wall

Malfunction

The LED in the button flashes and a message

appears on the Control Display. PDC is mal-

functioning. 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. Do

not spray the sensors with high-pressure clean-

ers for long periods and maintain a distance of

at least 4 in/10 cm to them.

Exhaust gases near the rear sensors can cause

a signal tone to sound.
