The concept
The distance from an object is indicated
in front with a higher intermittent tone,
and at the rear with a lower intermittent between the vehicle and any obstruc-
tone. As the distance between vehicle
and object decreases, the intervals
between the tones become shorter.
The signal tone becomes continuous

tow bars and trailer couplings, and in
the vicinity of thin or wedge-shaped
objects. Low objects already displayed,
e.g. a curb, can also disappear from the
detection area of the sensors again
before a continuous tone sounds.
Loud sources of sound, inside and out-
side the vehicle, could drown out the
PDC signal tone.<
The warning signal is canceled after
approx. 3 seconds if you are moving
parallel to a wall.
