....
"' gg
± ., a,
The four peripheral cameras are located in the ra­
d iator grille, in the luggage compartment lid and
on both exterior mirrors¢
fig. 139. Make sure
that the lenses are not covered by deposits or any
other obstructions as this may impair the system.
For information on cleaning, see ¢
page 306.
In the Surrounding mode, black corners are
shown in the vehicle silhouette. Objects in these
areas are outside of the camera's field of view
and are not detected.
The accuracy of the orientation lines and the blue
surfaces is reduced if the adaptive ai r suspen­
sion/sport* is faulty, if the vehicle is lifted or if
the
Dynamic mode is activated ¢ page 111.
A WARNING
-Always read and follow the applicable warn­
ings
¢&. in General information on
page 115.
-If the position or the installation angle of a
camera was changed, for example after a
120
collision, do not continue to use the system
for safety reasons. Have it checked by an au­ thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility .
- Keep in mind that the image in the display is
incorrect if the exterior mirror housing has
been moved out of place.

ner of the vehicle does not collide with any
obstacles.
