General The Parktronic system
(PTS) is an ultrasonic measuring system for detecting the distance to
an obstacle in critical driving situations. It assists the driver when
parking and in maneuvering situations at speeds of ?15
km/h. The sensors in the front
and rear bumpers emit ultrasound signals which are reflected by an
obstacle in the detection range. The reflected ultrasound
signals are received by the sensors and their travel time is
measured. The Parktronic control
module (N62) uses the travel time of the reflected signal to
calculates the distance between the vehicle
and obstacle and actuates the
warning indicators. The distance between the
vehicle and the obstacle is indicated to the driver visually and
audibly. In the process the
brightness of the warning indicators can be adapted to the brightness
of the surroundings automatically or manually depending on the
model series. The Parktronic system
(PTS) is activated when the ignition is switched
on. The system is active even
if it was switched off manually for the last journey. The Parktronic system can
be switched on and off with a switch. On models 215, 220 as of
01.07.02 the lower speed limit is vA /15 km/h and the upper
speed limit is vo/18
km/h. |
