Online Edition for Part No. 01 41 0 156 416 - © 10/01 BMW AG Park Distance Control (PDC)* The concept The PDC assists you when you are parking. Acoustical signals inform you of the distance to an obstacle. To do this, four ultrasonic sensors in the front and rear bumpers each measure the distance to the nearest object. The detection range of the front sensors and the two sensors located at the ends of the rear bumper is approximately 2 ft (60 cm), while the rear center sensors can detect objects to a distance of roughly 5 ft (1. 50 m). 91n Acoustical signals The distance from an obstacle is indicated in front with a higher intermittent tone, and at the rear with a lower intermittent tone. As the distance between vehicle and object decreases, the intervals between the tones become shorter. A continuous tone indicates the presence of an object less than approx. The warning signal is canceled after approx. 3 seconds if you are moving parallel to a wall. If there is a malfunction of the system: The indicator lamp flashes and a short steady signal tone is sounded > if you activate PDC with the button > when you select reverse for the first time after switching on the ignition > if a malfunction occurs while the PDC system is active. Switch the system off and have the cause of the malfunction corrected by your BMW Sports Activity Vehicle center. Overview Index Online Edition for Part No. 01 41 0 156 416 - © 10/01 BMW AG 530de229 Manual activation Press the button; the indicator lamp comes on. After driving a distance of more than approx. 160 ft (50 m) or exceeding a speed of approx. 20 mph (30 km/h), the system switches off and the indicator lamp goes out. Switch the system on again as required. Automatic function The system starts to operate automatically about one second after you select reverse with the ignition key in position 2. Manual deactivation Press the button again. Data Repairs Maintenance Controls 92nPDC* The PDC system does not remove the driver's personal responsibility for evaluating the distance between the vehicle and any obstacles. Even when sensors are involved, there is a blind spot in which objects cannot be detected. This applies especially in those cases where the system approaches the physical constraints of ultrasonic measurement, as occurs with tow bars and trailer couplings, and in the vicinity of thin or wedge-shaped objects.
