Driving - The transmission can overheat and be dam­
aged under certain driving and traffic condi­
tions such as frequent starts, creeping for a
long time, or stop -and-go traffic. When the
@] or. indicator light turns on, stop the
vehicle at the next opportunity and let the
transmission cool
r=;, page 68 .
-Allowing the vehicle to roll when the engine
is stopped will damage the S tronic trans ­
mission because it is not lubricated
¢ page 294, Towing with a tow truck.
@ Tips
For safety reasons, the parking brake is re­
leased automatically only when the driver's
safety belt is engaged in the buckle.
Hill descent control
The hill descent control system assists the driver
when driving down hills .
Hill descent control is ac tivated when the selec­
tor lever is in the Dor S position and you press
the brake pedal. The transmission automatically
selects a gear that is suitable for the hill. Hill de­
scent control tries to maintain the speed ach­
ieved at the time of braking, within physical and
technical limitations.
If may still be necessary to
adjust the speed with the brakes. Because hill de ­
scent control cannot shift down farther than 3rd
gear, it may be necessary to shift into tiptronic
mode in very steep areas. In this case, shift man­
ually into 1st or 2nd gear in tiptronic mode to
use the engine's braking force to relieve the
brakes .
Hill descent control switches off once the hill lev­
els out or you press the accelerator pedal.
On vehicles with a cruise control system*
¢ page 70, hill descent control is also activated
when the speed is set.
A WARNING
Hill descent control cannot overcome physical
limitations, so it may not be able to maintain
a constant speed under all conditions. Always
be ready to apply the brakes.

Shifting manually (tiptronic mode)
The tiptronic allows the driver to shift the gears
manually .

Electronic speed Limiter
Your vehicle may be factory equipped with tires
that are rated for a maximum speed of 130 mph (210 km/h). This is less than the maximum speed
of your vehicle. To reduce the risk of sudden tire
failure and loss of control if the vehicle is operat­
ed at excessive speeds, your vehicle also has an
electronic speed limiter. The electronic speed
lim iter prevents your vehicle from going faster
than the t ire speed rating. For mo re information
~page 262.
If the engine control unit receives faulty vehicle
road speed signals, the Malfunction Indicator
L amp (MIL)
¢..ffi will illumina te. If this occurs,
con tact the nearest au thorized A ud i dealer for
assistance.
_& WARNING
Always observe the posted speed limits and
adjust you r speed to suit prevailing road, traf­
fic and weather conditions. Never drive your
vehicle faster than the maximum speed rating
of the tires installed.

be due to the following reasons:
- There is no lane marker line.
- T he relevant lane marker lines are not detected
(for example, mark ings in a construction zone
or because they are obstructed by snow, dirt,
water or lighting).
- The vehicle speed is below the activation speed
of approximately 40 mph (65 km/h) (the speed
may vary depending on your country).
- The lane is too narrow or too wide.

Side assist helps you monitor your blind spot and
traffic beh ind your vehicle . Within the limits of
the system, it warns you abo ut vehicles that are
coming closer or that are traveling with you with­
i n sensor range (!)¢

Fig. 80 Rear of the ve hicle : po sition o f the senso rs (exa m·

Side assist funct ions at speeds above approxi­
mately 19 mph (30 km/h) .
@ Approaching vehicles
In certain cases , a veh icle w ill be classified as
c ritical for a lane change even if i t is sti ll some­
what far away. The faster a vehicle a pproaches,
the soon er the display in th e exterior m irro r will
turn on.
@ Vehicles tra veling with you
Vehicles traveling with yo u are indica ted in the
exterio r mir ror if they are classified as cr itical for
a lane change. A ll vehicles detected by side assist
are ind icated by th e time they enter your "blind
spot", at the latest .
@ Vehicles y ou are pass ing
If you s low ly pass a vehi cle that s ide assist has
detected (the difference in speed between the
vehicle and your vehicle is less than 9 mph (15 km/h)), the d isplay in the exter ior m irror tu rns
on as soon as the vehicle enters your blind spot .
The display wi ll not turn on if you quickly pass a
vehicle that side assist has detected (the differ­ ence in speed is greater than 9 mph (15 km/h)).
Functiona l limitat ions
T he radar sensors are des igned to detect the le ft
and right adjacent lanes when the road lanes are
the norma l width . In some situations, the display
in the exte rior mirror may turn on even though
there is no veh icle located in the area that is criti·
ca l for a lane change . For example :
- If the lanes are narrow or if your are driving on the edge of yo ur lane. If t his is the case, the .,..
77

Ass is t
system may have detected the vehicle in anoth­
er lane that is
not adjacent to your current lane.
- If you are driving through a curve. Side assist
may react to a vehicle that is one lane over
from the adjacent lane .
- If side assist reacts to other objects (such as high or displaced guard rails).
- In poor weather conditions. The side assist
functions are limited.
Do not cover the radar sensors ¢
fig. 80 with
s tickers, deposits, bicycle wheels o r othe r ob­
jects, because they wi ll impair the function . For
information on cleaning, see
¢ page 275.
A WARNING
-Always pay attention to traffic and to the
area around your vehicle. Side assist cannot
rep lace a dr iver's attention. The driver alone
is a lways responsible for lane changes and
similar driving maneuvers.
- In some situat ions, the system may not
function or its funct ion may be limited . For
example :
- I f vehicles are approach ing or being left
behind very quickly. The display may not
turn on in time.
- I n poor wea ther conditions such as heavy
rain, snow or heavy mist .
- On very wide lanes, in tight curves, or if
there is a rise in the road su rface. Vehicles
in the adjacent lane may not be detected
because they are outs ide of the sensor
range.
- Audi side assist cannot detect a ll vehicles
under all condit ions, w hich can increase the
risk of accidents .
- Please note that side assist only displays ap­
proaching vehicles or vehicles in your blind
spot if your vehicle is travel ing at least
19 mph (30 km/h) .
- In certain situations, the system may not
work or its function may be limited. For ex­ ample:
- The display may not turn on at the rig ht
time if veh ides are app roaching or passing
very quick ly.
78
- In poor weather cond itions, such as heavy
rain, snow or fog .
- In very wide lanes, in tight c urves or when
there are slopes in the roadway, vehicles
i n the ne ighboring lanes may not be de­
tected because they a re outside of the
sensor range.
(D Note
The sensors can be d isp laced by impacts or
damage to the bumper, wheel housing and
underbody. This can impair the system. Have
an authorized Audi dealer or author ized Audi
Service Fac ility check their f unct ion.
(D Tips
- If the w indow glass in the dr iver's door or
front passenger 's door has been tinted, the
display in the exterior mirror may be inco r­
rect.
