Park Distance Control (PDC)
*
The PDC does not remove the 
driver's personal responsibility for 
evaluating the distance between the ve-
hicle and any obstacles. Even when 
sensors are involved, there is a blind 
spot in which objects cannot be de-
tected. This applies especially in those 
cases where the system approaches 
the physical limits of ultrasonic mea-
surement, as occurs with tow bars and 
trailer couplings, and in the vicinity of 
thin and painted objects.
Certain sources of sound, such as a 
loud radio, could drown the PDC signal 
tone.
<
 
Keep the sensors clean and free 
of ice or snow in order to ensure 
that they continue to operate effectively.
Do not apply high-pressure spray to the 
sensors for a prolonged period of time. 
Maintain an adequate distance of more 
than approx. 4 inches (10 cm).
