Assistance systems
Traffic sign recognition assists you when driving
by displaying detected speed limits or signs pro­
hibiting passing in the instrument cluster display
¢ fig . 108. Within the limits of the system , the
legal speed limits in school zones are detected
and displayed.
General information
Traffic sign recognition can detect standard
speed limit signs that are within the camera's vis ­
ual field. With assistance from navigation data,
detected speed limits are evaluated and shown in
the display. The traffic s ign for the current de­
tected speed lim it w ill blink in the disp lay if you
exceed the warning threshold set in the Infotain­
ment
system ¢ page 110.
The traffic sign recognition is subject to certain
system limitat ions and may be unavailable or on­
ly part ially ava ilable in the follow ing s ituations:
- when visibility is poor, such as in snow, rain,
fog or heavy spray
- when there is glare, for example from oncom­
ing traffic or the sun
- at high speeds
- if the camera's visual
field ¢ fig. 109 is covered ,
for examp le by dirt or stickers. For information
on cleaning, see
¢ page 362
- if the traffic signs are completely or partially
covered, for examp le by trees, snow, dirt or
other vehicles
- if speed traffic signs do not conform to the standards
- if traffic signs are damaged or bent
- if traffic signs are displayed on sign holders
with electronic signs
- if the traffic signs or the configuration of the
road have changed (navigation data is no lon­
ger up-to-date)
A WARNING
-Pay attention to traffic and the area around
your vehicle when traff ic sign recognition is
turned on. The traff ic signs installed on the
road always take precedence over the display.
The drive r is a lways responsible for assessing
the traffic situation .

Ass is tance sy stems
- Under some circumstances, traffic sign rec­
ognition may not detect traffic signs cor­
rectly or detect them at all. As a result, the
system may not display the correct speed limit or any speed limit.
- Traffic s ign recognition does not adapt your
vehicle's speed to match the speed limit!
- The disp lay in the instrument cluster is
based on the units of measurement used for
speed in that country . As a result, the d is­
play
SO in the instr ument cluster can mean
ei ther km/h o r mph, depending on the coun­
t ry .

Predictive efficiency
assist
Description
Applies to: vehicles with predictive efficiency assist
General information
The predictive efficiency assist helps the driver to
d rive with anticipation and therefore helps to
save fuel. The system accesses predict ive trip da­
ta (including speed limits, inclines and the radius
of curves) from the navigation system*. Informa­
tion from the camera-based traffic sign recogni­
tion* is also applied to recogni ze traffic signs
r::;i page 109 .
The messages displayed depend on the naviga ­
tion data * being up-to-date and the correct iden­
tification by the traffic sign recognition*.
When adaptive cruise contro l* is switched off,
the predict ive efficiency assist only provides noti­
fications without controlled interventions. When
adaptive cruise control* is switched on, the sys­
tem responds to upcoming situations automati ­
cally .

Audi adaptive cruise
control
Description
Applies to: veh icles with Audi adaptive cruise contro l
Fig. 111 De tect ion range
The adaptive cruise control system is a combina­
t ion of speed and distance regulation.
It assists
the driver by both regulating the speed and
maintaining a distance to the vehicle driving
ahead, within the limits of the system . If the sys­
tem detects a veh icle driving ahead, the adaptive
cru ise control can brake and acce lerate your vehi­
cle . This increases driving comfort dur ing long
tr ips on highways and in stop-and -go traff ic (au­
tomatic transm iss ion*) .
What can adaptive cruise control do?
<( ~ The adaptive cruise contro l system uses video, ra-
"' ~ dar, ultrasound and navigation data. Veh icles

3 Assistance systems
driving ahead can be recognized up to 650 feet
(200 m) away.
Predictive functions offer the driver additional
comfort and contr ibute to the reduction in fue l
consumption and CO2 emissions
¢ page 120.
On open roads with no traffic , it functions like a
cruise control system. The stored speed is main­
tained . When approaching a vehicle driving
ahead, the adaptive cruise contro l system auto­
matically brakes to match that vehicle's speed
and then mainta ins the set distance. As soon as
the system does not detect a vehicle dr iv ing
ahead, adaptive cru ise control accelerates up to
the stored speed .
Applies to: vehicles with automatic transmissions
In stop-and-go traffic, adaptive cruise control can
brake until the veh icle is stationary and then can
also start driving again automat ically under cer­
ta in cond itions
¢ page 117.
In traffic jams or stop-and -go traffic, traffic jam
ass ist can assist the
driver ¢ page 121.
Which functions can be controlled?
When you switc h adapt ive cruise control on, you
can set the current speed as the "contro l speed"
¢ page 115, Switching on/off.
When driving, you can stop cru ise control
¢ page 118 or change the speed ¢ page 117 at
any time.
You can also set the distance to the vehicle driv­ ing ahead and set the driving mode of the adap­
t ive cru ise control

Predictive control
(efficiency assist)
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi adaptive cruise control and pre·
dict ive efficiency assist
Fig. 122 Instrument cluster: predictive control
General information
The predictive control 1l uses the map informa·
tion from the navigation system in order to react
proactively when driving. Information from the
camera -based traffic sign recognition* is also ap·
plied to recognize traffic signs
r::!> page 109.
When coming up to areas with speed limits or
changes in the course of the road (such as curves,
inte rsections or traffic circles), the system brakes
automatically and then accelerates back up to
the set speed.
When adaptive cruise cont rol is switched off, the
system only provides notificat ions without con­
trolled intervent ions
r::!> page 112 .
The driver can override the predictive control at
any time by pressing the accelerator or brake
pedal. If the system changes the vehicle speed to
adapt to speed limits, you can ch ange the speed
using the lever
<:!> page 117 , fig . 117 .
Always switch off the predictive control in
the following situations:
- When increased attention is needed from the
driver .
- In poor we ather condit ions such as snow or
heavy rain .
- When driving on roads in poor condition.

Indicator in the instrument cluster display
When switching on the adaptive cruise control
for the first time, the message

ability of the predictive control.
The symbol appears when the system
i s regulating the speed to match a speed limit .
If
this is the case, the system is regulating a speed
of 50 mph (80 km/h). The speed is then taken
over by the adaptive cruise control. The speed in
the speedometer LED ring adjusts to the speed to
be maintained

A WARNING
- Read the warnings on c> .& in General infor­
mation on page 114
and on r::!> .& in Descrip­
tion an page 109 .
-Pay attention to traffic and the area around
your vehicle when predictive control is
sw itched on. The driver is always responsi­
ble for assessing the traffic situation.
-There is an increase in the risk of an acci­
dent, because the system does not consider
"right of way" rules and also does not re-
spond to traffic lights.
._

-The system only considers traffic signs that
give a speed limit.
- The permitted speed can be exceeded if the
adaptation to a speed limit is incorrect. The dr iver is responsible for adhering to the per­
mitted speed.
- The speed at which a curve is driven through
does not necessarily match your own driving
style . Brake the vehicle yourself when need­
ed to reduce the r isk of a n accident .
(D Tips
-If a speed limit is detected, the stored
speed is also adjusted in the speedometer
L ED line when the adaptive cruise control is
not active .
- The adaptation by the system depends on
the driving mode set in drive select* .
- Switch ing off pred ictive control, for exam­
ple when dr iving in low traffic zones, does
not cause the adaptive cru ise control to
switch off.
-After switching on the ignit ion, the system
i nit ially adjusts to a speed of 80 mph
(130 km/h) when driv ing onto h ighways
wi thou t a speed limit . Then the system ad­
ju sts to the last speed stored by the driver.
- There is no adaptation to speed limits when
driv ing thro ugh highway interchanges and
when driving on o r off the expressway.
- There is no predictive cont rol at speed limits
u nder 20 mph (30 km/h).
- If a speed limit is only detected by the cam­
era and the actual speed is s ignificantly
h igher, then the speed limit will blink i n the
display unti l you have reached the requ ired
speed
~ page 110 .
-Incorrect values from the camera-based
traffic sign recognition* or outdated naviga ­
tion system map data can lead to incorrect
or implausible control.
- When route guidance is switched on, the
system adapts to the route provided by the navigation system. Driving w ithout route
guidance or leaving a route can resu lt in im­
plaus ible control.
A ss is ta nce syst ems
-The system switches off when outside of a
road system that is recorded in the naviga­
tion system map data .
