Audi active Lane assist
Description
Applies to : vehicles wi th A udi act ive la n e ass ist
Active lane ass ist (lane departure warning) de
tects lane marker lines within the l imits of the
system using a camera in the windshield . If you
are approach ing a detected lane marker l ine and
it appears likely that you will leave the lane, the
system w ill warn you with corrective steering.
You can override this steering at any time. If you pass over a line, the steering whee l will vibrate
lightly . In order for this warn ing v ibration to oc
cur, it must first be sw itched on in the Infotain
ment system. Act ive lane assis t is ready for oper
ation when the lane marker line is detected on at
least one side of the veh icle .
The system is designed for driving on express ways and h ighways and therefore only activates
at speeds above approx imately 40 mph (65 km/
h).
Applies to: vehicles with side assist: if you acti
vate a turn s ignal when active lane assist is ready
and it classifies a lane change as critical because
of vehicles traveling alongside you or approach i n g you, the re w ill be noticeable corrective steer
i n g shortly before you leave the lane. This will at
tempt to keep your veh icle in the lane.
Applies to: vehicles without side assist: the ready
system does not wa rn you if you activate a turn
signal befo re cross ing the lane marker line. In
130
this case, it assumes that you are chang ing lanes
intentionally .
Applies to: vehicles with adaptive cruise control:
there is no corrective steer ing or warnings if the
system recognizes a dist inct passing maneuver .
If the conditions are met, traffic jam assist
switches on at speeds under approximately
40 mph (65
km/h) ¢ page 121.
A WARNING
,-
- The system warns the driver that the vehicle
is leaving the lane using correct ive steering .
The driver is always responsible for keeping
the vehicle within the lane.
- The system can help you keep the vehicle in the lane, but it does not drive by itse lf . Al
ways keep your hands on the steering
wheel.
- Cor rective steering may not occur in certain
situations, such as du ring heavy braking.
- There may be cases where the camera does
not recognize all lane marker lines. Correc
tive stee ring can only take place on the s ide
of the vehicle where lane marker lines are
detected.
- Othe r road structures or objects could poss i
bly be identified un intent ionally as lane
marker lines . As a result, corrective steering
may be unexpected or may not occur.
- The camera view can be restricted, for ex
ample by vehicles driving ahead or by rain,
snow, heavy spray or light shining into the
camera. This can result in active lane ass ist
not detecting the lane marker lines or de
tect ing them incorrectly .
- In certain s ituations where visibility is low,
the vehicle may switch from an "early" to
"late" steering correction .
- Under certain cond it ions such as ruts in the
road, an inclined roadway or crosswinds, the
corrective steer ing alone may not be enough
to keep the vehicle in the m iddle of the lane .
- For safety reasons, act ive la ne assist must
not be used when there are poor road and/
or weather conditions such as slippery roads, fog, gravel, heavy rain, snow and the
