General Information

PARK DISTANCE CONTROL (PDC)

INTRODUCTION
The Park Distance Control is a safety/convenience system that uses ultrasonic sensors to detect the close proximity to other objects when maneuvering the vehicle in tight spaces (such as parallel parking or parking in a narrow garage).

The PDC monitors both the front and rear of the vehicle. The driver is waned, through an audible gong system, when the vehicle comes close to another object. As the object gets closer, the audible gong increases in frequency until a steady tone is produced.




As the distance to the object increase, the steady tone will return to a beep and stop when the vehicle moves away from the object.

The PDC is automatically switched "ON" when the ignition is switched on. However it does not become active until the vehicle is shifted into reverse.

The system can be manually switched "ON/OFF" with the console mounted switch.
