Adaptive Cruise Control
Speed and distance control system
Applies to vehic les : with Adaptive C ruise Cont rol
Description
The Adaptive Cruise Control driver assistance pr ogram is
a combined speed and distance control system .
Fig. 123 Fro nt
bu mper: Pos it io n of
r adar senso r
Adaptive Cruise Control can help make driving more re laxed and
less t iring, particula rly during long trips on interstates or other
highways that are generally straight .
Set ACC to maintain a constant, legal travel speed between 20 and
95 mph (30 -150 km/h) that is appropriate for prevailing traffic
conditions. Select a following distance to the vehicle ahead and ACC
w ill adjust your speed to maintain that distance .
Adaptive Cruise Contro l has technical limitations that you must
know, so please read this section carefully, understand how the
system works and use it proper ly at all times .
How does it work ?
You can operate the Adaptive Cruise Control using the lever on the
steering wheel column=> page 130, "How is the speed stored?" a nd
=> page 133, "How is the distance (time interval) set? ".

is, as a driver, you will have to adj ust the speed and distance to the
vehic le ahead in some instances=> page 138 , "Driver intervention
prompt" and=> page 140, "System limita tions" .

Audi lane assist
Lane assist
A pplies to veh icles : with lane assist
Description
Lane a ssist helps you keep y our vehicle in your lane .
Lane assist uses a camera to detect lane boundary lines. If the
system detects that your vehicle is about to leave a lane boundary
line, the steering wheel
vibrates to alert the driver. If lane assist
detects boundary lines on both sides of the vehicle's lane, the
system enters active standby mode, which is indicated by the green
indica tor light /: on the instrument cluster .
I f the system is in active standby mode and the turn signal is acti
vated before driving ov er the boundary line, the warning does not
occur since the sys tem allows for intenti onal lane changes.
The system is designed for driving on freeways and expanded high
ways and t hus works on ly at speeds of 40 mph (65 km/h) or mo re .
& WARNING
• Lane ass ist will not k eep your vehicle in your lane. The sy stem
only warns the d riv er w hen t he vehicle i s le av ing the lan e. The
driv er is alway s re spon sible for keeping the vehicle in the lane.
• The camera is not able to d ete ct all lane boundary lines and in
s o me cases might al so dete ct lane str ucture s or objects as
boundary lines . This c an le ad to in corre ct wa rning s or warnings
that fa il to go off at all .
• The camer a's visibili ty ca n be i mpaired by vehi cle s ahe ad of
you , for instan ce, or by rain , snow , h eavy spray or li ght shining into
th e cam era lens . Thi s can ca use lane as sis t to f ail to d ete ct

• .___A_ u_ d _ i_l_a _n _ e_ a_ s_s _is _ t _________________________________________________ _
I Not ready: The yellow indicator light shows that the system is
turned on but unable to send a warn ing. This can be due to the
following:
• There are no boundary lines, or there is on ly one boundary line
present .
• The boundary lines are not detected (e.g. due to snow, dirt, wet
conditions or light shining into the camera lens).
• More than two boundary lines (such as at construction sites) are
located in the vehicle's lane.
• The vehicle's speed is below the speed needed to activate it,
which is about 40 mph (65 km/h).
• The lane is narrower than about 8 ft . (2.5 ml, or wider than about
16 ft. (5 ml.
• The curve is too sharp.
Notes on the instrument cluster display
When the lane assist turns off automatically, the instrument cluster
indicator goes out and one of the following messages appears on
the display:
Audi lane assist not available: Currently no sensor vision
This message appears when the camera can no longer function
because it cannot detect the boundary lines. This may be due to the
following :
• The exterior s ide of the camera viewing window=>
page 143,
fig. 144 is covered with dirt or ice. Clean this part of the windshield.
• The camera v iewing window is fogged up on the inside. In this
case, wait until the fog disappears before turning lane assist on
again.
• The system was unable to detect boundary lines over an
extended period of time due to road conditions (such as snow
covered lanes). Do not turn lane assist on again until the lines can
be more easily detected.
Audi lane assist not available
A temporary malfunction is preventing lane assist from operating .
Try turning on lane assist again a t a later time.
Audi lane assist: system fault
The system should be checked by an authorized Audi dealer or other
qualified workshop .
[ i ] Tips
• Make sure that the camera viewing window=> page 143, fig. 144
is not covered by stickers or similar objects .
• Always keep the camera viewing window clean. This can usually
be done by operating the windshield wipers. •

Setting th e warning tim e
Earl y:
This setting warns the driver before a wheel touches the
detected lane boundary line. The warning depends on the vehicle's
angle as it approaches the boundary line . If you approach a
boundary l ine gradua lly, the warning will occur ear lier. If you
approach the boundary line at a very sharp angle, the warning wi ll
occur just before a whee l touches the line.
Adapti ve : In this setting, the warning time adjusts to the character
istics of the road and the vehicle speed. The warning occurs later for
curves and occurs earlier for straight stretches of road . The warning
occurs later on narrow roads than on wide roads.
Late: This setting warns the driver when a whee l drives over the
detected lane boundary line.
Se ttin g th e steering wheel vibrat ion
When adjusting the steering wheel vibration, the steering wheel
v ibrates so that you can check the intensity you have set.
[ i ] Tips
• When making the adjustment, lane assist is not activated . The
steering whee l vibrates briefly only to assist you in changing the
setting .
• Your settings are automatically stored and assigned to the
