Exit warning
Applies to: vehicles with exit warning system
Fig. 122 Front door: warning strip (diagram)
Within system limits, the exit warning system
can detect traffic approaching from behind such
as vehicles, and provide assistance based on this
information when you are exiting the vehicle. The
system uses the data from the radar sensors at
the rear corners of the vehicle > fig. 121.
General information
If you pull a door handle while the vehicle is sta-
tionary and an object classified as critical is ap-
proaching, the warning strip @ and the display
on the exterior mirror (2) will light up on the cor-
responding side of the vehicle. The opening of
the door will also be slowed briefly.
If the door is opened, the displays on that side
will flash. If another road user that is classified
as critical is approaching while a door is already
open, the displays on that door will turn on.
The same messages apply for the exit warning
system and side assist > page 155.

Switching the exit warning on and off
— The system can be switched on and off in the
MMI & page 126.
A WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 123.
— Always pay attention to traffic and to the
area around your vehicle. The exit warning
system does not replace the attention of the
vehicle occupants. The vehicle occupants are
always responsible for opening the doors
and exiting the vehicle.
— The exit warning system does not respond
to people and cannot warn you about every
type of approaching objects, such as cyclists.
Always monitor the traffic as well as the ve-
hicle's surroundings with direct eye contact.
— The display may not appear in time when ve-
hicles are approaching very quickly.
— The exit warning system does not react to
stationary objects or pedestrians.
— The exit warning system will not provide
alerts if your vehicle is pulled too far into
the parking space so that it is hidden by ad-
jacent vehicles.
@ Tips
— The exit warning system can be available for
up to approximately three minutes after un-
locking the vehicle and opening the door as
well as after switching off the ignition. Then
the displays flash briefly and the system
switches off.
— The system is not available when towing a
trailer. There is no guarantee the system
will switch off when using a retrofitted trail-
er hitch. Do not use these functions when
towing a trailer.

Emergency assist
Applies to: vehicles with emergency assist
General information
Within the limits of the system, the emergency
assist detects if the driver is inactive. In these in-
stances, the system warns the driver, assumes
control of the vehicle if necessary, and brings the
vehicle automatically to a stop in the lane.
Regardless of the speed, the emergency assist is
automatically available when the adaptive cruise
assist* is activated. When the adaptive cruise as-
sist* is deactivated, the system is only active at
speeds higher than approximately 40 mph
(65 km/h).
Emergency assist functions
Within the limits of the system, the emergency
assist monitors the driver’s steering, accelerator,
and brake pedal activity. Depending on the se-
verity of the situation, it may initiate visual, au-
dio, and haptic warnings in stages:
— Reduces the speed
— Messages
— Lowers the volume of the Infotainment system
— Audible warning
— Tightening of the safety belt
—A brief application of the brakes
If the driver remains inactive despite the warn-
ings, the emergency assist controls the vehicle
within the limits of the system:
— The Audi pre sense preemptive safety measures
are triggered > page 150.
— The vehicle will stay in the lane and will be
braked to a stop.
— As soon as the vehicle comes to a full stop, the
emergency flashers are activated and the vehi-
) This function is not available in every market and on all ve-
hicle equipment levels.

Message
EB warning! Hood is not locked. Stop vehicle
and check the lock
The hood latch is not locked correctly. Stop im-
mediately and close the hood.
ZA WARNING
— Never open the hood when there is steam or
coolant escaping from the motor compart-
ment, because there is a risk that you could
be burned. Wait until no steam or coolant is
escaping.
— For safety reasons, the hood must always be
closed securely while driving. Because of
this, always check the hood after closing it
to make sure it is latched correctly. The hood
is latched if the front corners cannot be lift-
ed.
— If you notice that the hood is not latched
while you are driving, stop immediately and
close it, because driving when the hood is
not latched increases the risk of an accident.

Raising the vehicle
Applies to: vehicles with vehicle jack
RAZ-0258
Fig. 174 Sill: positioning the vehicle jack
> Place the vehicle jack from the vehicle tool kit
ona firm surface. Use a flat, stable support if
necessary. On a slippery surface such as tile,
you should use a non-slip pad such as a rubber
mat > /\.
> Find the marking on the sill that is closest to
the tire that will be changed > fig. 173. Behind
the marking, there is a lifting point on the side
sill for the vehicle jack.
» Using the hex socket wrench (3) from the vehi-
cle tool kit, turn the vehicle jack under the lift-
ing point on the side sill until it is high enough
that the arm @ © fig. 174 is under the desig-
nated plastic mount.
> Align the vehicle jack so the arm @ engages in
the designated Lifting point in the door sill and
the base () lies flat on the ground. The base (2)
must be directly under the mounting point (@).
> To lift the vehicle, position the ratchet @ from
the vehicle tool kit with the correct side on the
hex socket wrench (3).
> Move the ratchet (@) clockwise back and forth
until the wheel lifts up slightly from the
ground.
ZX WARNING
—To reduce the risk of injury, make sure no
one is in the vehicle before raising it.
— Make sure the vehicle jack is stable. The risk
of injury is increased when the ground is
slippery or soft, because the vehicle jack
could slide or sink.
— Only raise your vehicle with the vehicle jack
provided by the factory. If you use a vehicle
jack designed for another vehicle, your vehi-
cle could slip and cause injury.
— Position the vehicle jack only at the desig-
nated mounting points on the side sill and
align the jack. Otherwise, the vehicle jack
could slip and cause an injury if it does not
have sufficient hold on the vehicle.
—To reduce the risk of injury, do not raise any
other vehicles or other loads using the vehi-
cle jack provided by the factory.
— Applies to: vehicles with air suspension:
Changes in temperature or load can affect
the height of the stopped vehicle.
—To reduce the risk of an accident, never
switch the drive system on while the vehicle
is raised.
—To reduce the risk of injury, support the vehi-
cle securely with suitable stands if work is to
be performed underneath the vehicle.
@) Note
Do not lift the vehicle by the sill. Position the
vehicle jack only at the designated mounting
points on the side sill. Otherwise, your vehicle
could be damaged.
