2014 AUDI A5 COUPE Owners Manual

Switching off
• Drive faster than 9 mph (15 km/h), or
• take the vehicle out of reverse gear. The
acoustic parking system is immediately de­
activated, and the rear view camera picture is deactivated automatically after a period
of about 15 seconds, or
• switch off the ignition.
The delay in deactivating the camera provides
an uninterrupted view behind the vehicle es­
pecially when maneuvering in tight parking
spaces and prevents the picture from turning
off the every time you sh ift out of reverse .
If the warning message appears in the display but not the rear view camera picture, read and
confirm the warning message . The acoustic
d istance signal is always active.
If you press a function button on the MMI
control console, the rear view camera picture
disappears . The rear view camera picture reap­
pears the next time you park.
Further information on the warning message
and the MMI control console can be found in
the MMI instruction booklet.
A WARNING
- Only use the rearview camera to assist
you if it shows a good, clear picture. For
example, the image may be affected by
the sun shining into the lens, dirt on the
lens or if there is a defect.
- Use the rearview camera only with the
rear lid completely closed. Make sure any
objects you may have mounted on the
rear lid do not block the rearview cam­
era.
(D Tips
- The rear v iew camera picture is available
as soon as the MMI Display or the MMI is
switched on, or the start-up phase is
completed.
- The sensors must be kept clean and free
of snow and ice for the park assist to op­
erate.

A WARNING
- The rear view camera does not show the entire area beh ind the veh icle
¢ page 109, fig. 110. Watch out espe­
c ially for small children and an imals. The
rear view camera cannot always detect
them, posing r isk of a n accident!
- Please note that objects not touch ing the
ground can appear to be furthe r away
t han they really are (for example, the
bumper o f a parked vehi cle, a trailer
hi tch, or the rear of a truck). In this case,
yo u should not use the help lines to he lp
with parking, which poses danger of an
acc ident!
(D Note
- Low obs tacles alrea dy signaled by a
warning can disappea r from the system's
detection range as they are approached
and will not contin ue to be signaled. Ob­
j ects such as barrier cha ins, trailer draw
bars, thin pa inted vertical po les or fen­
ces may not be detected by the system, pos ing risk of damage.
- In the MMI d isplay, the direction of trav­
el of the vehicle rea r is represented de­
pend ing on the stee ring w heel a ngle.
The vehicle fron t swings out more than
t h e ve hicle re ar. Main tain plen ty of di s­
ta nce from an obs tacle so that your o ut­
side mir ro r or a corne r of your veh icle
does not collide with any obstacles - dan­ ger of acc ident!
Parallel Parking
Applies to vehicles: wit h parking system (rear, with rear

Par kin g ne xt to obst acles
When there is an obstacle (such as a wall)
next to the parking spot, choose a spot with
more space on the sides. Position the long
side of the blue area so that there i s sufficien t
space from the curb . The area must not be on
the curb . You w ill also need to start turning
the steeri ng whee l much ear lie r. T he re should

&_ WARNING
-The rear view came ra does not show the
entire area behind the vehicle
¢ page 109, fig. 110. Watch out espe­
c ially for small children and an imals. The
rear view camera cannot a lways detect
them, posing risk of an accident!
- Please note that objects not touch ing the
ground can appear to be further away
than they really are (for example, the bumper of a pa rked vehicle, a t railer
hi tc h, or the rear of a tru ck) . In this case,
yo u should not use the help lines to he lp
with park ing, which poses danger of an
accident!

@ Note
In the MMI display, the direction of travel
of the vehicle rear is represented depend­
i ng on the steering wheel angle . The vehi­
cle front swings out more than the vehicle
rear. Maintain p lenty of d istance from an
obstacle so that your outs ide mirror or a
corner of you r vehicle does not coll ide with
any obstacles - dange r of accident!

-
If a warning tone is audible for about five sec­
onds when you turn on the ignition, there is a malfunction in the system. Have the problem
corrected by your authorized Audi dealer.
Keep the sensors in the rear bumper clean and
free from ice so that the acoustic park assist
system can function properly.

Homelink
Universal remote
control
Description
Applies to vehicles: with Home link
The HomeLink universal remote control can
be programmed with the remote control for
devices that are already present.
With Home Link, you can control devices such
as the garage door, security systems, house
lights , etc. comfortably from the inside of you
vehicle.
Homelink makes it possible for you to rep lace
three different remote controls from dev ices
in your home with one universal remote. This
feature works for most garage door and exte­
rior door motor signals. Programming the in­
dividual remote control for your remote con ­
trol takes place near the center of the radiator
grille. There is a control module attached at
this location .
A one-time programming of the sensor must be performed before you are able to use sys­
tems with Homelink. If the system does not activate after performing the one-time pro­
gramming, check whether the system uses a rolling coder:!.>
page 118 for vehicles without
the
MMI*.
,& WARNING
-
- Never use the Homelink transmitter
with any garage door opener that does
have not the safety stop and reverse fea­
ture as requ ired by federa l safety stand­
ards. This includes any garage door open­
er model manufactured before April 1,
1982.
-A garage door opener which cannot de­
tect an object, signaling the door to stop
and reverse does not meet current feder­
al safety standards . Using a garage door
opener without these features increases
risk of serious injury or death.
Homelink 115
- For safety reasons never release the
parking brake or start the engine while
anyone is standing in front of the vehicle .
- A garage door or an estate gate may
sometimes be set in motion when the
Homelink remote control is being pro­
grammed. If the device is repeatedly ac­
tivated, th is can overstrain motor and
damage its electrical components - an
overheated mo tor is a fire hazard!
- To avoid possib le injuries or property
damage, please always make abso lutely
certa in that no persons or objects are lo­
cated in the range of motion of any
equipment being operated.

Programming the rolling code
App lies to vehicles: with Home link
Additionally, a rolling code programming for
the Homelink universal remote control is re­
quired for some systems.
Identifying the rolling code
"' Press the prev io usly progr amme d Homelink
bu tton aga in and ho ld it down .
"' Look at th e LED @¢

the LED b links quickly, the features, s uch as
the garage door opene r, are equipped with
t he rolling code .
"' Program the rolling code as follows :
Activating the g arage door opene r motor

"' Locate the setting button on the garage
door opener motor unit . The exact location
and co lor of t he button may vary depend ing
on the ga rage door opener ma nufactu rer .
"' Press the sett ing button on the ga rage door
opener motor unit (usually th is w ill act ivate

(D Tips
- Programming the rolling code can be
perfor med quicke r and more easily with
the help of a se cond person .
- If d iff iculties should ar ise when pro­
gramming the rolling code, consult the
operating instructions fo r th e garage
