Visual warnings
The visual PDC warnings are given in the Central Information Display (CID). This is subject to the display in the
CID being active.
The visual warnings are given earlier than the acoustic warnings.
The effective range is approx. 2 metres at the front and approx. 2.5 metres at the rear.
The graphic display is shown on the CID. The PDC control unit supplies the distance between the ultrasonic
sensor and the object detected via the K-CAN.
The display on the CID is an overhead view of the vehicle with the effective ranges of the ultrasonic sensors.
The distance to objects detected is shown in the colours of traffic lights:
•
Distance down to 100 centimetres: green
•
Distance between 100 an 50 centimetres: yellow
•
Distance less than 50 centimetres: red
The display appears as soon as the PDC is switched on (manually or automatically). The display overrides other
displays in the CID. When the PDC is switched off again, the previous display automatically appears again in the
Central Information Display.
