stationary or driving at speeds up to 2 km/h. At
higher speeds the selector lever lock in the N po­
sition is disengaged automatically.
The selector lever lock is not engaged if the se­
lector lever is moved quickly through position N
(e.g. when shifting from R to D). This makes it
possible, for instance, to "rock" the vehicle back­
wards and forwards if it is stuck in snow or mud.
The selector lever lock engages automatically if
the brake pedal is not depressed and the lever is
in position N for more than about two seconds.
Interlock button
The interlock button on the selector lever handle
prevents the driver from inadvertently engaging
particular gears. The illustration shows the selec­
tor lever positions in which the button has to be
pressed, highlighted in colour¢ Fig. 80.
{(D) Note
- If the selector lever does not lock automati­
cally, a malfunction has occurred. In this
case, the power transmission is interrupted
to prevent the vehicle from moving uninten­
tionally. Proceed as follows to engage the
selector lever lock again:
- Press the brake pedal briefly.
- If the vehicle does not move forwards or
backwards even though a gear is selected,
proceed as follows:

reaches maximum rpm.
A WARNING
Please note that if the road surface is slippery
or wet, the kick-down feature could cause the
driving wheels to spin, which could result in
skidding.
Coast ing mode
Applies to: vehicles with automatic gearbox
In coasting mode, you can use the vehicle's kinet­
ic energy to drive without using the accelerator
on certain stretches of road. This saves fuel by al­
lowing you to take your foot off the accelerator
earlier and let the vehicle coast (for instance
when approaching a speed restriction in a built­
up area).

ing effect with no fuel consumption on a shorter
stretch of road).
A WARNING
- If you are approaching an obstruction when
coasting mode is switched on, please re­
member that the vehicle will not slow down
as quickly as usual when you take your foot
off the accelerator -risk of accident!
- The vehicle can pick up speed if you are driv­
ing down a slope in coasting mode -risk of

The speed warning function can help you keep
below a pre-set maximum speed. It can be set,
changed and deleted on the infotainment sys­
tem.
The speed warning function will warn you if the
vehicle exceeds the pre-set maximum speed. The
system gives an audible warning signal if the set
speed is exceeded by a small amount. At the
same time, an indicator lamp� and a message
will appear on the instrument cluster display.
The indicator lamp [9] and the message will dis­
appear when the road speed drops below the set
value.
You are recommended to store this speed limit
warning if you wish to be reminded of a particu­
lar speed limit. This could be when driving in
countries with general speed limits, or if you
need to keep below a particular speed when win­
ter tyres are fitted, etc.

Camera-based traffic
sign recognition
Description
Applies to: vehicles with camera-based traffic sign recogni­
tion
Fig. 91 Instrument cluster: Traffic sign recognition
Fig. 92 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 r;J or at certain times of day �
¢ Fig. 91 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.
www.audi.com). The system is also subject to
90 certain
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 oncom­
ing traffic.
- At high speeds.
- If the camera's range of vision ¢ Fig. 92 is im-
paired, e.g. by dirt or stickers. Notes on clean­
ing ¢page 263.
- 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.
A 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 is given in the units applicable in a
particular country. For example, if SO is dis-
played on the instrument cluster, this may �

Temporary speed restrictions are displayed in the
following situations:
- A temporary speed restriction for wet weather
is detected while the windscreen wipers are op­
erating.
- A speed restriction applying at certain times of
day has been detected and corresponds to the

Audi active Lane assist
(Lane departure warning
feature)
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi active lane assist
The active lane assist uses a camera in the wind­
screen to detect lane markings (subject to gener­
al system limitations). If you approach one of the
detected lane markings, the system corrects the
steering to warn you that the vehicle might be
about to cross one of the markings. You can over­
ride this steering input at any time. The steering
wheel vibrates slightly if you cross a lane mark­
ing. The vibration warning must be activated be­
forehand on the infotainment system. The active
lane assist is functional when it detects a demar­
cation line on at least one side of the lane in
which you are driving.
As the system is designed for driving on motor­
ways and other major roads, it is only active
above a speed of about 65 km/h (may vary in dif­
ferent export markets).
Applies to vehicles with side assist*: If you oper­
ate the turn signals while the active lane assist
and side assist are active, the steering will be cor­
rected just before you cross the lane demarcation
if the side assist detects vehicles approaching
quickly or travelling at about the same speed as
your own vehicle and judges the situation to be
critical. This intervention is intended to keep the
vehicle in the lane.
Applies to vehicles without side assist*: The sys­
tem does not warn you if you operate the turn
signal before crossing a lane demarcation. In this
case, it assumes that you intend to change lanes.
A WARNING
- The system initiates a corrective steering in­
put to warn the driver that the vehicle is
about to leave the lane. As the driver you
are always responsible for staying in your
own lane.
l l
The steering input function is not available on all export
versions.
92 -
The system can assist you to keep the vehi­
cle in the lane, however it is not capable of
driving on its own. Never take your hands
off the steering wheel.
- In certain situations, e.g. during heavy brak­
ing, the system may not correct the steer­
ing.
- In certain circumstances, not all of the lane
markings may be detected by the camera. A
corrective steering input can only be initi­
ated if the system detects a lane marking on
the side in question.
- Variations in the road surface or objects on
the road may be misinterpreted as lane
markings. In this case, the steering may be
corrected unexpectedly or not at all.
- The camera's view might be obstructed, for
example by vehicles travelling in front, rain,
snow, a lot of water on the road, adverse
light or dirt on the windscreen. If this hap­
pens, the active lane assist may not detect
the lane markings or may respond incorrect­
ly.
- In certain circumstances, for instance if visi­
bility is poor, the setting for the steering in­
put may be switched
internally
from "early"
to"late" l)_
- In certain driving conditions, such as ruts in
the road surface, adverse cambers or side
winds, the assistance provided by the steer­
ing correction may be insufficient to keep
the vehicle in the middle of the lane.
- For safety reasons, the active lane assist
must not be used in poor weather or in diffi­
cult or slippery road conditions (such as ice,
fog, loose grit or gravel, heavy rain, snow,
etc.) -risk of accident!
