Park Distance Control PDC
Principle
PDC provides assistance when parking the vehi‐
cle. Objects in front of or behind the vehicle as it
slowly approaches are indicated by means of
acoustic signals and a display on the Control Dis‐
play.
Depending on the equipment: obstacles at the
side of the vehicle that are detected by the side
ultrasonic sensors may also be reported by the
lateral parking aid function.
General
The range of the system is approximately 2 m,
6 ft, depending on the obstacle and environmen‐
tal factors.
An acoustic warning is given when the vehicle is
approx. 70 cm, 27 in away from an object and a
collision is imminent.
For objects behind the vehicle, the acoustic
warning is given sooner, at a distance of approx.
1.50 m, 5 ft.
Safety notes
WARNING
The system does not relieve you of your per‐
sonal responsibility to assess the traffic situa‐
tion correctly. Due to system limitations, it can‐
not respond independently and appropriately in
all traffic conditions. There is a risk of accident.
Adapt your driving style to the traffic conditions.
Observe the traffic situation and intervene ac‐
tively if the situation warrants it.
WARNING
If the vehicle is travelling at high speed when
Park Distance Control PDC is activated, the
warning may be delayed due to the physical
conditions. There is a risk of injury or material
damage. Avoid approaching an object at speed.
Avoid moving off at speed while Park Distance
Control PDC is not yet active.
