▷Visual display.
General information
Measurements are made through ultrasound
sensors in the rear bumper.
The maneuvering range, depending on the ob‐
stacle and environmental conditions, is approx.
6 ft/2 m.
An acoustic warning is first given with the fol‐
lowing circumstances:
▷By the two rear corner sensors at approx.
24 in/60 cm.▷By the rear middle sensors at approx.
5 ft/1.50 m.▷When a collision is imminent.
Information
WARNING
The system does not release from the
personal responsibility to correctly assess the
traffic situation. Based on the limits of the sys‐
tem, it cannot independently react to all traffic
situations. There is risk of an accident. Adjust
the driving style to the traffic conditions. Watch
traffic closely and actively intervene in the re‐
spective situations.◀
WARNING
Due to high speeds when PDC is acti‐
vated, the warning can be delayed due to
physical circumstances. There is a risk of injury
or risk of property damage. Avoid approaching
an object too fast. Avoid driving off fast while
PDC is not yet active.◀
Overview
Ultrasound sensors Ultrasound sensors of the PDC,
for example in the bumpers.
Functional requirements
To ensure full functionality:▷Do not cover sensors, for example, with
stickers, bicycle racks.▷Keep the sensors clean and free of ice.
To clean: when using high-pressure washers,
do not spray the sensors for long periods and
maintain a distance of at least 12 in‐
ches/30 cm.
Switching on/off
Switching on automatically
With the engine running, engage lever in posi‐
tion P R.
The rearview camera also switches on.
Automatic deactivation during forward
travel
The system switches off when a certain driving
distance or speed is exceeded.
Switch the system back on if needed.
Display
Signal tones When approaching an object, an intermittent
sound indicates the position of the object. E.g.
if an object is detected to the left rear of the
vehicle, a signal tone sounds from the left rear
speaker.
The shorter the distance to the object, the
shorter the intervals.
If the distance to a detected object is less than
approx. 10 inches/25 cm, a continuous tone is
sounded.
Volume The ratio of the PDC signal tone volume to the
entertainment volume can be adjusted.
