88 Audi adaptive cruise control and braking guard
stopped vehicle or stationary obstacle (end of a traffic jam or vehicle that has
broken down in traffic).
- Always remember that the radar sensor
for the braking guard works only within
defined detection and range limits that
may prevent the proper detection of oth
er vehicles.
- The radar sensor's function and range
can be reduced by rain, snow and heavy
spray . Moving vehicles up ahead may not
be promptly detected or may not be de
tected at all.
- Reflective surfaces including crash barri
ers or tunnel entrances may impair the
function of the radar sensor.
({) Tips
-You can cancel the braking with increas
ing force that is initiated by the system
by braking yourself, by accelerating no
ticeably or by swerving.
- Braking guard error messages
¢page 88.
- Keep in mind that braking guard can
brake unexpectedly . Always secure any
cargo or objects that you are transport
ing to reduce the risk of damage or in
jury.

Description
Applies to vehicles: wit h park ing system p lus
Audi parking system plus provides audio and
visual signals when parking.
Fig. 123 Display field
Sensors are located in the front and rear
bumpers.
If these detect an obstacle, visual
and in some situations audible signals warn
you.
Make sure the sensors are not covered by
stickers, deposits or any other obstructions as
it may impair the sensor function. For infor
mation on cleaning, refer to

The display field begins approximately at :
@ 4 ft (1.20 m)
® 3 ft (0.90 m)
© 5.2 ft (1.60 m)
@ 3 ft (0 .90 m)
The closer you get to the obstacle, the shorter
the interval between the audible signals. A
continuous tone sounds when the obstacle is
less than approximately 1 ft (0.30 m) away.
Do not continue driving farther~&.
