General information
Appl ies to: ve hicles with Audi adaptive cruise contro l
Fig. 108 Fro nt of the vehicle: sensors and video camera
The areas with the radar and ultrasonic sensors
and the video camera
c:> fig . 108 must not be cov
ered by stickers, deposits or any other objects, because this can inte rfere with the adaptive
cr uise control funct ion. For information on clean
ing, see
c:> page 354 . The same app lies for any
modifications made in the front area.
In some d riving situations, the adaptive cru ise
control funct ion is restr icted:
- Vehicles can only be detected when they are within the sensor detection zones
c:> page 108,
fig. 107.
- The system has a limited abil ity to detect
vehicles that are a short distance ahead, off to
the side of your vehicle or moving into your
lane .
- Objects that are difficult to detect such as mo
torcycles, vehicles with high ground clearan ce
or an overhanging load are detected late or not dete cted at all.
- When driving through curves
c:> page 110 .
-When the vehicle is stat ionary c:> page 110.
..&, WARNING
Always pay attent ion to the traffic aro und you
when adap tive cruise contro l is swi tched o n.
As the driver, you are s till responsible for your
own speed and the distance to other vehicles .
The adaptive cruise control is used to assist
you. The driver must a lways take action to
avoid a collision. The driver is a lways responsi
ble for brak ing at the correct time.
A ss is ta nce syst ems
-For safety reasons, do not use adaptive
cru ise control when the road surface is in
poor condition and/or in bad weather condi
tions (such as ice, fog, gravel, heavy rain and
hydroplaning). Using the system under
these conditions increases the r isk of an ac
cident.
- Sw itch adaptive cruise control off tempora
rily when dr iv ing in turning lanes, on ex
p ressway ex its (except if predictive con trol
is switched on) or in const ruct ion zones.
This prevents the vehicle from acce lerating
to the stored speed when in these situa
tions.
- The adaptive cruise contro l system will not
brake by itself if you put your foot on the ac
celerator pedal. Doing so can override the
speed and distance regulation.
- When approaching stationary obstacles
such as stopped traffic, adaptive cruise con
trol will respond with limited function.
- Adaptive cr uise control does not respond to
peop le, animals, or crossing or oncoming
objects.
- The funct ion of the radar sensors can be af
fected by reflective objects such as guard rails, the entrance to a tunnel, heavy rain or
ice.
(D Note
The sensors can be displaced by impacts or
damage to the bumper, wheel housing and underbody. This can impair the adaptive
cruise control. Have an authorized Audi dealer
or authorized Audi Service Facility check
the ir
f u nct ion.

For an explanation on conformity with the
FCC regulations in the United States and the
Industry Canada regu lations, see
