- with CODE (220) Parktronic system (PTS)







Overall description
The Parktronic system (PTS) is an ultrasonic measurement system for detecting the range to an obstruction. It helps the driver to estimate distances to objects in front of and behind the vehicle.

^ When selector lever position "D" is engaged, the area (A) in front of the vehicle is monitored; at selector lever position "R" or "N", the area (A) in front of and the area (B) behind the vehicle. The maximum monitoring range is 100 cm at the front (a) and 120 cm at the rear (b). In areas (c1) and (c2) the Parktronic system (PTS) cannot receive defined values (inherent in the technology).
^ On approaching an obstruction a visual (and, if necessary, an acoustic) warning is given.
^ When the ignition is switched on, the PTS control unit (N62) performs a self-test.
