Audi pre sense
Introduction
Applies to: ve hicles w ith Audi p re se nse
W ith in the limits of the system, the pre sense
functions can in it iate measures in particularly
dangerous s ituat ions to protect the ve hicle pas ­
sengers and ot her r oad users.
- Due to the interl ink ing of various vehicle sys­
tems , crit ica l dr iv ing s ituat ions can be detected
by
pr e s ense basic and measu res fo r preventa­
t ive occ upan t protect ion are can be initiated.
- T he
pre sen se front system uses the data from
t h e adapt ive cr uise control* radar sensors and
t h e camera to calc ulate the probab ility of a col ­
lision . Within the limits of the system, an im ­
pending collision with vehicles can be detected
in both urban and rural speed ranges. In this
case, the system warns the driver visually,
acoustically and with a jerk on the brakes if nec­
essary . If needed, it can initiate a partial or fu ll
deceleration to reduce the collision speed or to
avo id the co llision unde r ce rtain c ircumstances .
In conjunct ion with p re sense basi c/rear, the
front safety belts are also revers ibly tensioned
whe n needed. The pre sense front is also act ive
when adaptive cruise control* is switched o ff.
- Pr e se nse rear con tains pre sense basic func ­
tions. It uses the data from the side assist* ra­
dar sensors and calc ulates within the limits of
the system the probability of a rear end colli ­
sion with the vehicle behind you . Pre sense rear
is also active when s ide assist* is switched off .
112
-Within the limits of the system, pre sen se cit y
uses the camera data and can detect an im ­
pending collision with vehicles and pedestrians .
In this case, the system warns the driver visual­ ly, acoustical ly and w it h a jerk on the brakes if
