Activation
PDC will activate at automatically ignition on and when D
(Drive), R (Reverse) or N (Neutral) is selected. The sensors
activated depend on which gear is selected.

Deactivation
PDC will deactivate when the vehicle speed exceeds 11 mph
(18km/h). The system is reactivated automatically when the
vehicle speed is lower.
To manually deactivate PDC press
be set to ON to show the system is deactivated.

Operation
Caution: In heavy rain or similar adverse conditions, the
PDC sensors may not always be able to accurately measure
distance to close objects. A fully laden vehicle or irregular
obstacles may also cause inaccurate measurements. Take
extra care in these circumstances.
If an obstacle is detected to the front or rear of the vehicle, a
series of warning tones will be heard from the front or rear
speaker respectively. The frequency of the warning tones
increase as the vehicle approaches the obstacle.
The beep becomes a continuous tone when an obstacle is
detected at or within approximately 300 mm from the rear or
250 mm from the front of the vehicle.
The LED will flash if a fault is detected in the system and a single
three second tone will be heard (only once per ignition cycle).
The system is automatically disabled when a fault is detected.
If an ultrasonic frequency using the same frequency band as
the sensors is detected, the PDC system can give spurious
warning tones.
The PDC system uses inner and outer sensors. When
manoeuvring forward into a garage, the front outer sensors will
cease detection if they detect a stationary or receding object for
three seconds or more. This allows detection directly in front or
behind the vehicle in this type of manoeuvre.
