DRIVING AIDS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-8-7
Sensors
Four sensors are positioned in the rear bumper. Each sensor comprises an outer housing with an angled rubber trim
which differs between the inner and outer sensors and the sensor body. The outer housing has a slot which engages
with a pin on the sensor body and is locked by rotating the sensor. A coil spring around the sensor is compressed
when the sensor is installed in the bumper and maintains the sensor housing engaged on the pin. The sensor housing
has a raised lip at the top which locates in a corresponding groove in the bumper mounting hole and sets the correct
orientation for the sensor body.
Each sensor has a three pin connector which connects into a common harness linking all four sensors. This harness
is connected to the main vehicle body harness. The three pins are for sensor negative and positive feeds and a signal
line.
Each sensor comprises a plastic housing which contains a piezoelectric disc. The disc resonates at a frequency of
38.4kHz, producing an ultrasonic signal output. The disc also receives the reflected echo signal.
The PDC ECU controls the operating mode of each sensor by output of a digital signal on the signal line. Each sensor
has two modes of operation; combined transmitter and receiver mode or receiver mode only.
DRIVING AIDS
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 86-8-9
Sounder
The PDC sounder is controlled by the PDC ECU and emits a series of tones of varying frequency to inform the driver
of the distance between the vehicle and a detected object.
The PDC sounder is located in the LH side of the luggage compartment. A bracket is attached to the 'E' post, behind
the trim panel and provides for the attachment of the PDC sounder and the PDC ECU.
On vehicles without rear air conditioning, the bracket is located inboard on the LH 'E' post, adjacent to the luggage
compartment trim panel. On vehicles with rear air conditioning, the bracket is located outboard on the LH 'E' post,
adjacent to the outer body panel.
The sounder is located on two screws and lock washers through the bracket and secured with nuts. The sounder is
connected to the PDC ECU via a harness connector.
NAVIGATION SYSTEM
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 87-3
Navigation Computer
The navigation computer is installed in the DIN radio slot in the fascia. A spring loaded catch on each side of the

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 87-5
System Settings Menu
The system settings menu provides access to features that can be changed to suit market and personal preferences
and to navigation system operating features. On European systems, the system settings menu also includes
computer games and a currency converter. While the navigation computer is in the navigation mode, the system
settings menu can be accessed by pressing the Nav button. Using the RH rotary control, the following features can
be selected and adjusted:
lTIME – Allows the navigation system clock to be set to local time as opposed to the Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
transmitted from the GPS satellites. The local time setting is necessary for correct navigation on routes with time
restrictions and for Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) calculations. The time can only be adjusted in 30 minute
steps.
lSAVE POSITION– Allows the current vehicle position to be saved and allocated a name in the navigation
destination memory.
lGAMES – Provides access to a selection of computer games.
lLANGUAGE– Allows the navigation system language and voice (where applicable) to be changed.
lANIMATIONS– Allows the LCD animations to be switched on and off.
lMEASURING UNIT – Allows the route guidance distances displayed on the LCD to be switched between metric
and Imperial units.
lANNOUNCEMENT ETA – Allows the route guidance ETA announcement to be switched on and off.
lCALCULATE EURO – Provides access to a currency converter.
User Menu
The user menu provides access to further features that can be changed to suit personal preferences. While the
navigation computer is in navigation, radio or CD modes, the user menu can be accessed by pressing and holding
the tone button for more than 2 seconds. The user menu is displayed over two screens, which can be toggled between
using the
multifunction button. Using the appropriate multifunction button or the RH rotary control, the following
settings can be selected and adjusted:
Screen 1
lGal – Automatic volume control setting (see above).
lTel – If a handsfree telephone system is connected to the navigation computer, allows either mute (telephone
mute mode) or audio signal (telephone conversation via the ICE speakers) to be selected.
lLcd – The LCD can be set to appear negative, positiveor automatic. In automatic, the display will be positive or
negative, depending on the setting of the exterior lamps.

flashes when the navigation computer is switched off.
lM/S – Radio reception can be set to Stereo, Mono or Auto, to suppress interference and reflections and so
optimise reception. Stereo is for exceptionally good reception conditions. Mono is for poor reception conditions.
In auto, the normal setting, the navigation computer automatically switches between stereo and mono depending
on reception conditions.
Screen 2
lNav – Sets how audio navigation instructions are delivered. In onl, other audio sources are suppressed and only
the navigation instruction is output to the speakers. In mixed, the volume of any other audio source is reduced
and the volume of the navigation announcement is the same as the original audio source +/– 6 dB (adjustable).
In independ, the audio source and navigation announcement can be set to independent volume levels.
lAux – Used to switch auxiliary CD AF connections between Aux mode on and Aux mode off. If no CD
autochanger is installed, an external cassette or CD player can be connected to the navigation computer and
powered by switching on the auxiliary CD AF connections.
lCmp – Allows a compass to be shown on the LCD when route guidance is not active.
lBeV – Used to adjust the signal tone volume. Signal tones sound to confirm storage confirmation etc. and can
