Safety tips
The side ass ist detec tion may be l imited w hen d riv ing ar ound
narrow street corners, on hi lly streets, and under poor weather
co nd ition s.
I t is possible that the radar sensors may also detect other objects,
suc h as high o r stagge red guardra ils .
S ide ass ist does not meas ure ac tua l la ne widt h. The syste m
assumes a fi xed lane width . Detection in the left and right lanes is
b ased on this assu med lan e wid th. Whe n driv in g o n na rro w roa ds or
when driving to the left or r ight of the c enter of a trave l lane, it is
po ssi ble that ve hic le s will be detec te d tha t are
no t in th e lane next
to the lane you are using .
& WARNING
• Improper reliance on the side assist system can cause colli ­
sions and serious personal injury:
-Never rely only on side assist when changing lanes .
- Always check rear view mirrors to make sure that it is safe to change lanes .
• Side assist cannot detect all vehicles under all condition s­
danger of accident!
• Side a ssist cannot detect vehicles in time to alert you when
they approach from behind at very high speed , or fall drop back
very quickly.
• The radar sensor's
vision can be redu ced or entirely blocked by
rain, snow , and heavy spray . This can result in side assi st not
adequately detecting veh icles or , in some cases , not detecting
them at all . Always keep an eye on the direction you are traveling
and the relevant area around the vehicle.
Controls and equip ­
ment
& WARNING (continued )
• Please note that side assist indicates there are approaching
vehicles, or vehicles in your blind spot , only after your vehicle has
reached a driving speed of at least 19 mph 130 km/h).
• Side assist signal does not work around tight corners (turning
radius less than 328 feet, or 100 ml. • S ide assist is no replacement for the driver' s full attention. The
driver alone is responsible for lane changes and similar driving
maneuvers . Always keep an eye on the direction you are traveling
and the relevant area around the vehicle .
(D Note
To ensu re that side assist is not adversely affected , you sho uld not
b lock the area on the rear bumper where t he radar s ensors are
located with foreign objects (such as with stickers or bicycle racks) .
[ i ] Tips
If the positions of the radar sensors have been changed as a result
o f a re ar end -c olli sio n, for i nsta nce, have s ide ass ist c hecked by a n
authorized Audi dea ler for safety reasons .•

Sensor s in th e bump er
Fig . 17 1 Tru nk l id:
L oca tion of th e r ear
vi ew c amera
Sensors are located in the rear bumpers. If these detect an obstac le,
audible and visual signals warn you . The range at which the sensors
begin to measure is approximately:
To the side 2 ft (0.60 ml
Center rear
5.2 ft (1.60 m)
Distance warning when reversing starts when an obstacle is
detected in the range of the parking assist system. As the distance
decreases, the time interval between the audible tones becomes
shorter.
When the distance is less than 1ft (0.30 ml, the tone becomes continuous . At this point you should stop backing up.
If the distance to an obstacle stays the same, the vo lume of the
distance signal chime is gradually reduced after about 4 seconds
(does not affect the continuous signal tone). Approaching another
obstac le wi ll cause the distance signal to sound again at the normal
volume.
R ea r vi ew camera cover age ar ea
The MMI display shows the area covered by the rear view camera
=>
page 157, fig . 170 G) . Objects that are not in the area covered 0
are not shown on the MMI display. We recommend that you practice parking with the rear view camera
in a traffic -free location or parking lot to become familiar with the
system, the orientation lines, and their function. When doing this,
there should be good ligh t and weather conditions.
In the MMI d isplay, objec ts or vehicles appear closer or further away
if:
• you are driving in reverse gear from a level surface onto an
incline, or a downward slope,
• you are driving in reverse gear toward protruding objects,
• the vehic le is carrying too much load in the rear.
The accuracy of the orientation lines and b lue surfaces diminishes
if:
• the rear view camera does not provide a reliable image, for
example, in poor visibility conditions or if the lens is dirty,
• the image on the screen is not visible due to sun glare and reflec ­
tion.
C aring for the rear vi ew c amera l en s
The rear view camera is located above the rear license plate bracket.
For the parking assist to operate, the lens => fig. 171 must be kept
clean :
• Dampen the lens with a household alcohol -based glass cleaner,
and clean the lens with a dry cloth
~ 0 .
• Remove snow with a hand brush and ice preferably with a de ­
icing spray=>
0 .
& WARNING
• The p arking aid cannot repl ace the driver' s attentio n. The
driv er alo ne is re spon sible for parkin g and similar dri ving m aneu ­
v ers .
• Alway s keep your eyes on the vehicle' s surrounding s, usin g the
r ea r vie w mirror as w ell. ..,.

Reverse Parking
Parking mode 1 can be used when parking in a garage or
parking space .
Fig. 172 MMI Display:
Aiming at a parking
spot
Fig. 173 MMI Display:
Aligning the vehicle
Switch the MMI on and select the reverse gear.
- Turn the steering wheel until the orange orientation lines
0 appear in the parking spot~ fig. 172. Use the mark­
ings
0 to help you estimate the distance from an
obstacle. Each marking corresponds to 3 ft
(1 m). The
blue area represents an extension of the vehicle's outline
by approximately 16 ft (5 m) to the rear. While driving
in reverse gear, adjust the steering wheel
angle to fit the parking space with the aid of the orange
orientation lines~
0. G) marks the rear bumper. You
should stop driving in reverse as soon as and no later
than when the red orientation line
0 abuts an object
~& !
& WARNING
• The rear view camera does not show the entire area behind the
vehicle~
page 157 , fig. 170. Watch out especially for small chil­
dren and animals . The rear view camera cannot always detect
them , posing risk of an accident!
• Please note that objects not touching the ground can appear to
be further away than they really are (for example, the bumper of a
parked vehicle, a trailer hitch, or the rear of a truck). In this case,
you should not use the help lines to help with parking, which
poses danger of an accident!
0 Note
• Low obstacles already signaled by a warning can disappear from
the system's detection range as they are approached and will not
continue to be signaled . Objects such as barrier chains, trailer draw
bars, thin painted vertical poles or fences may not be detected by
the system, posing risk of damage.
• In the MMI display , the direction of travel of the vehicle rear is
represented depending on the steering wheel angle. The vehicle
front swings out more than the vehicle rear. Maintain plenty of distance from an obstacle so that your ou tside mirror or a corner of
your vehicle does not collide with any obstacles -danger of
accident! •

sented depending on the steering wheel angle. The vehicle front
swings out more than the veh ic le rear. Maintain ple nty of distance
from an obstacle so that your outside mirror or a corner of your
veh icle does not col lide with any obs tacles - danger of accident!
