2017 AUDI Q7 night vision

If the head-up display* is switched on and the
night vision assist content is activated,. or.
will appear in the head-up display*.
Marking light*
To direct the driver's attention to a pedestrian,
the headlights can flash on the pedestrian three
times in a row when there is a pedestrian warn­
ing.
This occurs at speeds above approximately 35 mph (60 km/h) if you are outside of illuminat­
ed areas and no detected vehicles are shown. The
high beam assistant* controls the marking
light* c:>
page 49.
The marking light is not used for wild animals.
General information
App lies to: ve hicles w ith nigh t visio n ass ist
Fig. 131 Front of the ve hicle: night vision ass ist came ra
The following situations may affect the function
of the night vision assist system:
- Poor visibility such as snow, rain, fog or heavy
spray
- Dirty lens on the night vision assist camera
Make sure the night vision camera
c::> fig. 131 is
not covered by stickers, deposits or any other ob­
structions because this can impair the night vi­
sion assist function . For informati on on cleaning,
see
c::> page 354 .
The pedestrian and wild animal recognit ion de­
pends on the temperature difference between
the person/wild anima l and the background . Pea -
~ ple/wild animals may not be detected if the dif-,.....
~ ference is too small. The pedestrian/wild animal N
8 marking and the marking light* deactivate at 0 :E Assistance systems
temperatures above approximately 77 °F (25 °C)
and during daylight. If the night vision assist im­
age is selected in the instrument cluster display,
then the
II symbol appears at the top on the
right side.
A WARNING
-Pay attention to traffic and the area around
your vehicle when night vision assist is switch­
ed on. The driver is always responsible for as­
sessing the traffic situation.
- Night vision assist can only warn about peo­
ple and wild animals located within the visu­
al range of the infrared camera. The visual
range corresponds to the image in the in­
strument cluster display.
- Night vision assist may not detect people or
wild animals and mark them if
- they are not in an upright position, for ex­
ample if they are sitting or lying down
and/or
- the silhouette in the display appears in­
complete or interrupted, for example be­
cause the person is partially covered by a
parked vehicle or an animal is covered by
tall grass. This could increase the risk of
an accident.
- Never try to swerve around animals if doing
so will endanger you or other road users, be­
cause this increases the risk of an accident.
(I) Tips
- Even though the system evaluates the
shape and heat given off by all detected ob­
jects, there are limits to the system . There
may be false warnings.
- For technical reasons, the image pauses in
split second intervals.

Audi drive select
Introduction
App lies to: vehicles with Aud i drive se lect
Drive select makes it possib le to exper ience dif­
ferent types of vehicle sett ings in one veh icle .
You can select the d riving modes
Offroad * or
Lift / Offroad *, Allroad* , Comfort , Auto and Dy ·
namic
in the Infotainment system, for example
to switch from a sporty to a comfo rtable driving
mode. In the
Individual mode, the sett ings can
be adjusted to your personal preferences. This
makes it possible to combine sett ings such as a
sporty engine setting with light steer ing .
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
The following systems, among other th ings, are
i nfluenced by dr ive select:
En gine and aut omatic tr ansmi ssi on
Depend ing on the mode, the engine and auto­
ma tic tr ansmission respond more quickly or in a
more balanced manner to accelerator pedal
movements . In the sporty
Dynam ic mode, the
transm iss ion shifts at higher speed ranges.

Intelligent Technology
Intelligent Technology
Electronic stabilization
control (ESC)
Description
Elect ronic stabilization control (ESC) supports
driver safety.
It red uces the risk of slipping and
improves driving stability. ESC detects crit ica l sit­
uations such as when the vehicle is oversteering
and understeering or the wheels are spinning.
The vehicle is stabilized by applying the brakes or reducing eng ine torq ue. When the ESC engages,
the
DJ ind icator light blinks in the instrument
cluste r.
The fo llow ing systems are integrated in the ESC:
Ant i-loc k bra king system (ABS)
ABS prevents the whee ls from locking when brak­
ing. The vehicle can sti ll be steered even during
hard brak ing. Apply steady pressure to the brake
pedal. Do not pump the pedal. A puls ing in the
brake pedal indicates that the system is acting to
stabilize the vehicle .
Brake assist system
The brake assist system can decrease brak ing dis­
tance . It increases braking power when the driver
presses the brake pedal quick ly in emergency sit­
uations . You must press and hold the b rake pedal
until the dangerous situat io n is over . In veh icles
with adapt ive cr uise control*, the bra ke assist
sys tem is more sensitive if the d ista nce detec ted
t o the vehicle dr iv ing ahead is too small.
O n ve hicles w ith act ivated and funct io ni ng night
vision assist*, the brake ass ist system ca n re­
spond more sens it ively if there is a warning.
Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR )
ASR reduces eng ine power when the drive wheels
begin spinning a nd adap ts the force to the road
conditions . This makes it easie r to start, acceler­
ate and dr ive up h ills.
Electron ic differential lock (EDL )
EDL applies the brakes to a wheel that starts
spinning and transfers the drive power to the
148
other driving whee ls. This function is not avai la ­
ble at higher speeds.
In extreme cases , ED L automat ica lly swi tches off
to keep t he b rake on the braked wheel from over ­
heating. The veh icle is still working correct ly. ED L
will switch on again automatically when condi­
tions have returned to normal.
Steering recommendat ion
The ESC he lps to stabilize the vehicle by chang ing
t h e s teer ing torque.
Select ive wheel torque control
Se lective wheel to rque cont rol is used when d riv­
i ng on curves. Braking is targeted toward the
whee ls on the inside of the curve as needed . T his
a ll ows mo re precise dr iving in cu rves .
Automatic post -collision braking system
The "automat ic post -collis io n braking system"
can help to reduce the risk of sliding and of addi­
tiona l co llisions after an acc ident. If the a irbag
contro l modu le detects a collision, the veh icle is
braked by the ESC.
The veh icle does not brake automatically if:
- the driver presses the accelerator pedal, or
- the ESC, the brake system or the veh icle elect ri-
cal system are not functioning.
A WARNING
- The ESC and its integrated systems cannot
overcome the lim its imposed by natura l
phys ical laws . This is espec ially important
on s lippery or wet roads . If the systems be­
gi n ac ting to stabilize yo ur vehicle, you
should immediately a lter your speed to
match the road and traffic conditions. Do
not let the inc reased safety provided tempt
you into taking risks. This could increase
your r isk of a coll is ion.
- Please note the risk of a collision increases
when driving fast, especially through curves
and on slippery or wet roads, and when dr iv­
ing too close to objects ahead. The ESC and
its integrated systems cannot always pre­
vent co llisions -there is st ill a risk of acci­
dents!
