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
If the indicator lamp II lights up, the ESC sys­
tem has been partially or completely switched off
via the I� OFFi button ¢ page 104. In addition,
ESC OFF will appear. You can switch the ESC sys­
tem back on by pressing the I� OFFi button
again.
The system is activated when you switch on the
ignition. If the indicator lamp II goes out, this
means the system is fully functional.
Stabilisation control (ESC): fault! See owner's
manual
Stabilisation control (ESC/ABS): fault! See own­
er's manual
ABS: fault! See owner's manual
If the indicator lamp II and the ABS indicator
lamp [i] light up and the message appears, there
is a malfunction in the anti-lock brake system or
electronic differential lock. This will also cause an
ESC malfunction. The vehicle can still be braked
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.

WARNING
If the brake warning lamp. lights up to­
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.
(t} Note
For more information about the ESC and ABS
systems, refer to ¢ page 102.
(0) Brake pads
II] Brake pads: wear limit reached. You can con­
tinue driving. Please contact workshop
The brake pads are worn.
Drive to a qualified workshop without delay and
have the brake pads checked.
!t Safety systems
The indicator lamp El monitors the safety sys­
tems and the pedestrian protection system.
Safety system
If the indicator lamp fll lights up or flashes,
there is a malfunction in one of the safety sys­
tems.
Drive to a qualified workshop without delay and
have the fault rectified.
Pedestrian protection system
If the indicator lamp m lights up or flashes and
the bonnet is in a raised position, the pedestrian
protection system has been triggered. Please re­
fer to ¢ page 202, Pedestrian protection sys­
tem.

change. In all cases, the side assist will give
a warning for the vehicles it has detected at the
latest when they enter the "blind spot".
© Other vehicles being overtaken
When you are overtaking another vehicle slowly,
with a speed differential of less than 15 km/h,
the warning lamp in the exterior mirror will light
up as soon as the other vehicle enters your blind
spot.
If you are overtaking another vehicle quickly, with
a speed differential of more than 15 km/h, the
warning lamp will not light up.
System limitations
The radar sensors are designed for normal lane
widths and monitor the lanes immediately to the
left and right of your vehicle. In certain situations
the warning lamp on one of the exterior mirrors
may light up even if no vehicle is travelling in an
area that could be critical in the event of a lane
change. For example:
- When you are travelling in a narrow lane or
when you are not travelling in the centre of the
lane. In this case the system may monitor an­
other lane and register a vehicle that is not in
fact travelling in an adjacent lane.
- When you are driving into a bend. The side as­
sist may react to a vehicle two lanes away.
- If the system detects other objects (such as
crash barriers, etc).
- In poor weather conditions. The functionality of
the side assist is then restricted.
The radar sensors ¢ Fig. 98 must not be obstruc­
ted by stickers, bicycle racks, deposits or any oth­
er substances which could impair the function of
the system. For notes on cleaning, please refer to
¢page 236.
.&_ WARNING
-Always watch the road and the area sur­
rounding the vehicle. The side assist feature
is not a substitute for the full concentration
of the driver. The driver is always responsi­
ble for the safety of lane changes and other
manoeuvres. Driver
assist systems
- In certain situations, the system may not
function properly, or the functionality of the
system may be restricted. For example:
- If other vehicles are approaching very
qui ckly, or if you are overtaking other
vehicles quickly. The warning lamp may
not light up in time.
- In poor weather conditions, such as heavy
rain, snow or road spray.
- If you are travelling in very wide lanes, in
tight bends or over crests. The system may
not detect vehicles in the adjacent lane
because they are outside the area covered
by the sensors.
CD CAUTION
Impacts or damage to the bumper, wheel
arches or underbody can cause misalignment
of the sensors. This can impair the functional­
ity of the system. Have the systems checked
by a qualified workshop.
� Note
The warning lamps on the exterior mirrors
may not be properly visible if tinted foil is af­
fixed to the side windows on the driver's or
passenger's side.
Switching on and off
Applies to vehicles: with Audi side assist
The system can be switched on and off on the in­
fotainment system.
... Select the following on the infotainment sys­
tem: I MENU I button >Car> left control button
> Driver assist> Audi side assist.
The warning lamps in the exterior mirrors light
up briefly each time the ignition is switched on to
indicate that the system is activated .

the brake pedal and do not pump the brakes.
You will feel the brake pedal pulsate while the
anti-lock brake system is working.
Brake assist system
The brake assist system can shorten the braking
distance. The braking force is automatically boos­
ted if you press the brake pedal quickly in an
emergency. You must keep pressing the brake
pedal until the danger has passed.
Traction control system (ASR)
In the event of wheelspin, the traction control
system reduces the engine torque to match the
amount of grip available. This helps the car to
start moving, accelerate or climb a gradient.
Electronic differential lock (EDL)
When the EDL detects wheelspin, it brakes the
spinning wheel and directs the power to the oth­
er driven wheel (or wheels on quattro* versions).
This function is not available at high speeds.
To prevent the disc brake of the braked wheel
from overheating, the EDL cuts out automatically
if subjected to excessive loads. The vehicle can
still be driven. The EDL will switch on again auto­
matically when the brake has cooled down.
Steering recommendation
The ESC helps to stabilise the vehicle by changing
the steering wheel torque.
Selective wheel torque control
Selective wheel torque control intervenes when
cornering by braking the wheel(s) on the inside of
the bend individually as required. This enables
precision cornering. The relevant system may not
intervene in the wet or snow.
Multicollision brake assist system
The "multicollision brake assist system" can help
to reduce the risk of skidding and further colli­
sions during an accident. If the airbag control
unit detects that a collision has taken place up-
� wards
of a certain speed, the vehicle is braked by
a'.: the ESC.

technology
The vehicle will not be braked automatically if:
- the driver presses the accelerator,
- the brake pressure applied by pressing the
brake pedal is higher than the brake pressure
initiated by the system,
- or the ESC, the brake system or the vehicle's
electrical system are not fully functional.
A WARNING
- The grip provided by the ESC and the inte­
grated systems is still subject to the physi­
cal limits of adhesion. Always bear this in
mind, especially on wet or slippery roads. If
you notice the systems cutting in, you
should reduce your speed immediately to
suit the road and traffic conditions. Do not
let the extra safety provided tempt you into
taking any risks when driving -this can
cause accidents.
- Remember that the accident risk always in­
creases if you drive fast, especially in cor­
ners or on a wet or slippery road, or if you
follow too close behind the vehicle in front
of you. Please bear in mind that even the
ESC and the integrated systems cannot
compe nsate for the increased accident risk.
- When accelerating on a uniformly slippery
surface (for instance all four wheels on ice
or snow), press the accelerator gradually
and carefully. The driven wheels may other­
wise start to spin (in spite of the integrated
control systems), which would impair the
car's stability and could lead to an accident.
{D Note
- To ensure that the ABS and ASR systems
work properly, all four wheels must be fit­
ted with identical tyres. Any differences in
the rolling radius of the tyres can cause the
system to reduce engine power when this is
not desired.
- The systems can make noises when they in­
tervene.
- If the indicator lamp DJ orr§J appears,
there may be a malfunction ¢ page 14. -
