.&_ WARNING
-
-Always read and follow the applicable warn-
ings¢ .&.
in General information on
page 108.
- If the position or the installation angle of a
camera was changed, for example after a
collision, do not continue to use the system
for safety reasons . Have it checked by an au­
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility .
- Keep in mind that the image in the display is
distorted if the exterior mirror housing has
been moved out of place.
- Use the
Rear mode and the Corner view
(rear)
mode only when the luggage com­
partment lid is fully closed . Otherwise the
image in the display will be incorrect.
- The vehicle surroundings are shown using
the camera images. The vehicle image is
shown by the system. Objects and obstacles
above the camera are not displayed.
- Camera lenses enlarge and distort the field
of vision. The objects appear both altered
and inaccurate on the screen.
(D Note
- Always read and follow the applicable warn­
ings
9 (£) in General information on
page 108.
- The Infotainment display shows the direc­
tion in which the rear of the vehicle is travel­
ing based on the steering wheel angle. The
front of the vehicle swings out more than
the rear of the vehicle. Maintain plenty of
distance so that an exterior mirror or a cor­
ner of the vehicle does not collide with any
obstacles .
@ Tips
If the 8/u;ri/r::::::5, symbol appears in the dis­
play and the respective display area is grayed
out, then the power exterior mirrors were
folded in or the driver's door/front passeng­
er's door/luggage compartment lid was
opened .
