PDC Button
The PDC button is in the center console switch cluster (SZL). The signal from the PDC button is transferred through the K-CAN to the PDC control unit.
The PDC button is used to manually switch the Park Distance Control system on and off. When the PDC is switched on, the function LED in the PDC button lights up.
If a fault develops in the PDC, the function LED in the PDC button flashes.
