Park Distance Control (PDC): Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 BMW X5, 2012 BMW X5, and 2011 BMW X5. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Park Distance Control (PDC) is an item of special equipment. Park Distance Control (i.e.: park distance control) assists the driver when he is parking and maneuvering in tight spaces. This means that even small parking spaces can be used. At the same time, the amount of parking damage is reduced. The PDC runs a distance measurement in relation to objects in the pickup range by means of ultrasonic sensors.
Slow approaches to an object in front of or behind the vehicle are indicated by:
- Acoustic warnings
- Visual warning
NOTE:
PDC is not an independent control unit.
The PDC is integrated in the junction box electronics (JBE), but it has its own control unit address and diagnosis address.
