:E General information
Applies to: vehicles with rearv iew camera
Fig . 139 Area covered (D and area not covered @by the
rearv iew camera.
Fig. 140 Luggage compartment lid: locatio n of the rear­
view camera
The rearview camera is located above the rear li­
cense plate bracket. Make sure that the lens for
the rearview camera ¢
fig. 140 is not covered by
deposits or any other obstructions because this
can impair the function of the rearview camera.

page 354.
The rearview camera coverage area includes (D
¢ fig. 139 . Only this area is shown in the Info­
tainment display. Objects that are in area @,
which is not covered, are not displayed.
A WARNING
- Always read and follow the applicable warn­
ings
<=> A in General information on
page 138.
- If the position and the installation angle of the rearview camera was changed, for ex­
ample after a collision, do not continue to
use the system for safety reasons. Have it
checked by an authorized Audi dealer or au­
thorized Audi Service Facility .
Parking systems
-Only use the rearview camera to assist you if
it shows a good, clear picture. For example,
the image may be affected by the sun shin­
ing into the lens, dirt on the lens, or if there
is a malfunction.
- Use the rearview camera only if the luggage
compartment lid is completely closed. Make
sure any objects you may have mounted on
the luggage compartment lid do not block
the rearview camera.
- The camera lens enlarges and distorts the
field of vision. The object appears both al­
tered and inaccurate on the screen.
- In certain situations, people or objects in
the display appear closer or farther away:
- For objects that do not touch the ground,
such as the bumper of a parked vehicle, a
trailer hitch or the rear of a truck. Do not
use the orientation lines in this case.
- If driven from a level surface onto an in­
cline, or a downward slope .
- If driven toward protruding objects.
- If the vehicle is carrying too much load in
the rear.
- Applies to: vehicles with air suspension: the
accuracy of the orientation lines and blue
surfaces decreases when the vehicle is
raised/lowered¢

ings¢ (!)
