CONTROLS
The rearview camera image is displayed if the re‐
verse gear is engaged when pressing the park
assistance button.
Warning
Signal tones
An intermittent tone indicates when the vehicle
is approaching an object. E.g., when an object is
detected to the left rear of the vehicle, a signal
tone sounds from the left rear speaker.
The shorter the distance to the object, the
shorter the intervals.
When the distance to a detected object is less
than approx. 10 inches/25 cm, a continuous tone
is sounded.
With front PDC: when objects are simultaneously
located both in front of and behind the vehicle,
an alternating continuous signal is sounded.
The signal tone is switched off, when selector
lever position P is engaged on vehicles with
Steptronic transmission.
Volume
The ratio of the PDC signal tone volume to the
entertainment volume can be adjusted.
Via iDrive:
1. "My Vehicle"
2. "iDrive settings"
3. "Tone"
4. "Volume settings"
5. "PDC"
6. Set the desired value.
The setting is stored for the driver profile cur‐
rently used.

A display appears as soon as Park Distance Con‐
trol (PDC) is activated.
The range of the sensors is represented in the
colors green, yellow and red.
When the image of the rearview camera is dis‐
played, the switch can be made to PDC:
1. Move the Controller to the left, if needed.
2. "Rear view camera"
