ZA\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 123.
— Pay attention to traffic and the area around
your vehicle when efficiency assist is switch-
ed on. The driver is always responsible for
assessing the traffic situation.


@) Tips
— The traffic signs on the road always take pri-
ority over the display. The driver is always
responsible for adhering to the regulations
applicable in the country where the vehicle
is being operated.
— When a route is planned using the naviga-
tion system*, then system displays messag-
es based on an assumed route. Without
route guidance, the system displays mes-
sages based on an assumed route.
— The wording of the message may vary de-
pending on the selected Audi drive select*
mode and the selected gear. No messages
are displayed when in the "S" driving pro-
gram.
— Additional messages are displayed when in
the efficiency* Audi drive select mode or in
Range mode.
— Specific settings are stored automatically in
the active personal profile.

D_ This is not available in some countries.
During predictive control), the adaptive cruise
assist uses data from the efficiency assist. The
system adapts the speed set in the adaptive
cruise assist to the speed limits that are detected
and the layout of the road. After that, the system
accelerates up to the speed that was set.
After switching on the ignition, the availability of
predictive control is indicated by a message when
the adaptive cruise assist is first activated.
The displays depend on the vehicle equipment.
Requirements
— The adaptive cruise assist must be actively reg-
ulating > page 141.
— The system can only react to speed limits that
are 20 mph (30 km/h) or higher.
Display in the speedometer
The display in the speedometer is not available in
all layouts*.
@ The marking shows the set speed (regulated
speed that was set by the driver or by predic-
tive control).
@ The red band shows the difference between
the speed limit and the set speed that is set.
@® The gray band shows if the vehicle speed is
planned to drop below the set speed due to
the road layout.
Overriding control
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 change the speed
using the lever > page 141, fig. 111.
Setting predictive control
You can switch off predictive control functions or
adjust them individually. The settings depend on
the vehicle equipment.

system expects that you can easily drive around
the stationary vehicle by turning the steering
wheel.
— The adaptive cruise assist may not react to sta-
tionary obstacles, such as the end of a traffic
jam, especially at high speeds.
— The adaptive cruise assist has a limited ability
to detect vehicles that are a short distance
ahead, off to the side of your vehicle, or moving
into your lane.
— Objects that are difficult to detect, such as mo-
torcycles, vehicles with high ground clearance,
or vehicles with an overhanging load, may be
detected late or not detected at all.
— The adaptive cruise assist does not respond to
people, animals, or objects that are crossing or
approaching from the opposite direction.

Audi pre sense front
Applies to: vehicles with Audi pre sense front

The Audi pre sense front uses the data from the
camera and calculates the probability of a rear-
end collision. Within the limits of the system, an
impending frontal impact with vehicles, pedes-
trians), or cyclists!) may be detected in both ur-
ban and rural speed ranges.
Audi pre sense front is active at speeds of approx-
imately 6 mph (10 km/h) and higher. It can react
to pedestrians” or cyclists) at speeds up to ap-
proximately 50 mph (85 km/h), and can react to
vehicles at speeds up to approximately 155 mph
(250 km/h).
Early warning/acute warning
The system can recognize various dangerous sit-
uations. The early warning occurs if:
—Avehicle driving ahead brakes suddenly
— Your own vehicle approaches a vehicle in front
of you that is traveling at a significantly slower
speed or that is stationary
—A pedestrian or cyclist!) is standing in the lane
or is moving into the lane
The message Audi pre sense [and a warning
tone will warn you about the danger.
The brakes may also be applied as an acute warn-
ing when there is an impending collision. You will
also be warned by an indicator in the instrument
cluster display. When this warning occurs, it may
only be possible to avoid a collision by swerving
or braking strongly.
Automatic deceleration
If you do not react to the acute warning, Audi pre
sense front can brake the vehicle to a full stop
within the limits of the system ). This reduces
the vehicle speed in the event of a collision.

D_ This is not available in some countries.
Automatic braking force increase
If Audi pre sense determines that you are not
braking strongly enough when a collision is immi-
nent, it can increase the braking force based on
the
situation.
Take-over
If the message Go Please take over! appears, the
vehicle has been braked to a stop by Audi pre
sense and you must resume control of the vehi-
cle.

Z\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 123.
— Audi pre sense front cannot overcome natu-
ral physical laws. It is a system designed to
assist and it cannot prevent a collision in ev-
ery circumstance. The driver must always in-
tervene. The driver is always responsible for
braking at the correct time. Do not let the
increased safety provided tempt you into
taking risks. This could increase your risk of
a collision.
— Audi pre sense front does not react to cer-
tain objects, such as animals, crossing or on-
coming vehicles, bars, railings, or railcars.
— Audi pre sense front may be limited or un-
available when driving in curves.
—In trailer mode, the braking behavior of the
trailer can be different than usual during au-
tomatic braking.
G@) Tips
Keep in mind that Audi pre sense front can ap-
ply the brakes unexpectedly. Always secure
any cargo or objects that you are transporting
to reduce the risk of damage or injury.

of the vehicle and calculates the probability of a
rear-end collision with the vehicle behind you.
Audi pre sense preemptive safety measures can
be initiated if the risk of a collision with the vehi-
cle behind you is detected.

Z\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras © page 123.
— Audi pre sense rear does not react to pedes-
trians, animals, crossing objects, and ob-
jects not detected as vehicles.

@ Tips
— Audi pre sense rear functions switch off
when trailer mode is detected. There is no
guarantee the functions will switch off
when using a retrofitted trailer hitch.
— Audi pre sense rear functions may also
switch off if there is a malfunction in the
side assist system.
Audi pre sense side
Applies to: vehicles with Audi pre sense side
Audi pre sense side uses data from the extra ra-
dar sensors installed in the front and rear areas
of the vehicle, and other sensors can react to side
impacts from cross-traffic and vehicles coming
from the side.
Audi pre sense side is active at speeds up to ap-
proximately 35 mph (60 km/h). The Audi pre
sense preemptive safety measures can be trig-
gered when a collision risk is detected.

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 123.
— Audi pre sense side does not react to pedes-
trians, animals, and objects not detected as
vehicles.

G) Tips
— The Audi pre sense side functions are limit-
ed when trailer mode is detected.
— The Audi pre sense side functions may also
switch off if there is a malfunction in the in-
tersection assistant*.
Evasive steering assist
Applies to: vehicles with evasive steering assist
The evasive steering assist can help you to steer
the vehicle around an obstacle detected in a criti-
cal area. If you avoid an obstacle after the acute
warning, then the evasive steering support as-
sists you by applying slight steering adjustment
to correct your steering wheel angle as long as
you are actively steering. The swerve assist is
available at speeds between approximately
20 mph and 90 mph (30 km/h - 150 km/h).

ZA\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 123.
— The evasive steering assist does not react to
pedestrians, animals, crossing objects, and
objects not detected as vehicles.
G) Tips
—If the ESC is limited, switched off, or mal-
functioning > page 102, the evasive steer-
ing assist functions may also not be availa-
ble.
— An indicator in the instrument cluster will
inform you when there is an intervention.
