Range Rover: Using the parking aid
WARNING
Parking aids may not detect moving objects, such as children and animals, until they are dangerously close. Always use extreme caution when manuevering, and always use your mirrors.
NOTICE
PDC sensors may not detect some obstructions (e.g. narrow posts, small objects close to the ground and some objects with dark non-reflective surfaces). Parking aids are for guidance only and are not intended to replace the driver’s visual checks for obstructions or objects when manuevering.
1. When reverse gear is selected, the front and rear parking sensors are activated automatically, and the switch indicator will illuminate.
To manually activate the front sensors press the PDC button, a short confirmation tone will be heard, and the switch indicator will illuminate.
To turn off the system when active, press the button. The switch indicator will extinguish.
2. The range of the parking aid sensors varies between the front, rear and corners of the vehicle. The front sensors and rear corner sensors have an approximate range of 24 inches (600 mm). The center rear sensors have an approximate range of 60 inches (1500 mm).
The front sensors will remain active as long as the vehicle's speed does not exceed 10 mph (16 km/h).
Selecting N from R will keep front and rear sensors active.
When objects are detected, the parking aid emits a warning tone which increases in frequency as the vehicle gets closer to the object and then becomes constant when the obstacle is within 12 inches (300 mm).
Note: The front parking aid provides an audible proximity warning when driving forwards and when reversing.
