Park Distance Control: Notes
On the E90, Park Distance Control (PDC) is a distance warning system that provides both visual and audible information on the distance to the nearest obstacle when parking and driving out of spaces.
The distance to the nearest obstacle is measured by the four sensors in the rear bumper.
The distance is signalled audibly via the speakers in the rear of the vehicle. Signal tones increase as the distance to the obstacle decreases.
A permanent tone signal is output when vehicle is in close proximity to obstacles. The signal tones are produced and output by means of the existing audio system (RAD2 or CCC).
When the vehicle is equipped with navigation, the graphic distance signalling is shown on the Central Information Display (CID).
The PDC can be switched on and off by means of a button in the center console Switch Cluster (SZM).
The following changes/new features have been implemented compared to the predecessor models:
- Different speaker configurations (corresponding to equipment).
