LCI = Life Cycle Impulse (face-lift)
In the US, the LCI cars are 2008 and on. In Europe, LCI cars came out in late 2007.
Pre-LCI is any car in that series made before the face lift.
PDC = Park Distance Control.
And just in case:
DTC = Dynamic Traction Control
DSC = Dynamic Stability Tontrol
Hit the DTC button once: this engages DTC, and reduces DSC. This will let you skid the tires to a certain degree but not get the car sideways. Good for snow.
Hold the DTC button for 4 seconds, this fully de-activates DSC.
