f}/D Electronic stabilisation control (ESC)
and (@)) anti-lock brake system
If the indicator lamp II flashes while the vehicle
is in motion, the ESC or traction control system
(ASR) is intervening.
If the indicator lamp II lights up, the ES( sys­
tem has been switched off for system reasons. In
this case, the ES( can be reactivated by switching
the ignition off and then on again. If the indica­
tor lamp goes out, this means the system is fully
functional.
Stabilisation control (ESC): sport. Warning! Re­
stricted stability
If the indicator lamp fil lights up, the ESC sport
mode has been activated via the I� OFFi
button
¢page 104. You can switch the ESC system back
on by
pressing the I� OFFi
button again.
Stabilisation control (ESC): switched off. Warn­
ing! Restricted stability

in the normal way (however the ABS control func­
tion will be out of action).
Drive to a qualified workshop without delay and
have the fault rectified.

gether with the ABS indicator lamp and the
ESC indicator lamp, this can mean that the
control function of the ESC/ ABS is not work­
ing. Input from the functions that stabilise
the vehicle is no longer available. This could
cause the vehicle to skid sideways. Drive care­
fully to the nearest qualified workshop and
have the fault rectified.

.... Camera-based
traffic
sign recognition
Description
Applies to vehicles: with camera-based traffic sign recognition
Fig. 14 Instrument cluster: Traffic sign recognition (exam­
ple)
Fig. 15 Windscreen: Camera window for traffic sign recog­
nition
Traffic signs detected by the camera appear in
the infotainment display to keep you informed of
current speed restrictions and no-overtaking
zones. In cases where the system is able to de­
tect temporary speed limits applicable in wet
weather g;J or at certain times of day�
¢ Fig. 14 it will also display these traffic restric­
tions.
General notes
The traffic sign recognition system can detect
standardised speed limit signs within the cam­
era's range of vision. It makes use of the naviga­
tion data to evaluate the detected speed limits
and show them on the display. Under certain con­
ditions, the system will also display the legal
speed limits on roads without speed limit signs.
Traffic sign recognition is not available in all
countries. For a current list, see the Internet (e.g. Driver
information system
www.audi.com). The system is also subject to cer­
tain inherent restrictions and may be partially or
completely unavailable in the following situa­
tions:
- If visibility is impaired by snow, rain, fog or
heavy road spray.
- In dazzling light, e.g. from the sun or oncoming
traffic.
-At high speeds.
- If the camera's range of vision � Fig. 15 is im-
paired, e.g. by dirt or stickers. Notes on clean­
ing ¢ page 236.
- If the traffic signs are partially or completely
obscured, e.g. by trees, snow, mud or other
vehicles.
- If traffic signs deviate from the standard ap­
pearance (round with red border).
- If traffic signs are damaged or bent.
- If matrix traffic signs are mounted on overhead
gantries.
- If traffic signs or routes have changed (naviga-
tion data out of date).
Some types of slow moving vehicles (such as
heavy goods vehicles) carry speed stickers which,
if detected by the system, may affect the display.
& WARNING
Always direct your full attention to the road
and surroundings, even when you are using
traffic sign recognition. The actual traffic
signs on your route always take precedence
over the information on the display. It is al­
ways the driver's responsibility to assess the
traffic situation and take appropriate care.
- Under adverse conditions, the traffic sign
recognition system may misinterpret or fail
to detect traffic signs. It is therefore possi­
ble that the speed limit display may occa­
sionally be unavailable or even incorrect.
- The traffic sign recognition system does not
warn you if you exceed the speed limit and
does not alter the speed of your vehicle to
obey the speed limit.
- The speed limit displayed in the instrument
cluster (e.g. SO) may apply in mph or km/h,
depending on the units applicable in a par­
ticular country.
