Low objects already displayed, e.g., curbs, can

False warnings

PDC may issue a warning under the following
conditions even though there is no obstacle
within the detection range:

In heavy rain.

When sensors are very dirty or covered in
ice.

When sensors are covered in snow.

On rough road surfaces.

On uneven surfaces, such as speed
bumps.

In large buildings with right angles and
smooth walls, e.g., in underground ga‐
rages.

In heavy exhaust.

Due to other ultrasound sources, e.g.,
sweeping machines, high pressure steam
cleaners or neon lights.
The malfunction is signaled by a continu‐
ous tone alternating between the front and
rear speakers. As soon as the malfunction
due to other ultrasound sources is no lon‐
ger present, the system is again fully func‐
tional.

Malfunction

The range of the sensors is shown as a shaded
area on the Control Display.
PDC has failed. Have the system checked.
To ensure full operability:

Keep the sensors clean and free of ice.

Do not adhere any stickers to the sensors.

When using high-pressure washers, do not
spray the sensors for long periods and
maintain a distance of at least 12 in/30 cm.
