Audi pre sense
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with Audi pre sense
Within the limits of the system, the Audi pre
sense functions can initiate measures in certain
driving situations to protect the vehicle occu-
pants and other road users. Depending on the ve-
hicle equipment, various Audi pre sense systems
may
be installed:
— Audi pre sense basic can react during emergen-
cy and dangerous braking maneuvers and un-
stable driving situations (such as oversteering
or understeering).
— Audi pre sense front!) can detect an impending
frontal impact and react with warnings, braking
interventions, and preemptive safety measures
for the vehicle occupants.
— Audi pre sense rear monitors the rear traffic
behind your vehicle and can react to an impend-
ing rear impact.
— Audi pre sense side can detect an impending
side impact from cross-traffic and vehicles com-
ing from the side, and can initiate preemptive
safety measures.
— The swerve assist can assist you during a
swerving maneuver if it is detected as critical
based on the steering movements.
— The turn assist can detect vehicles in the oppo-
site lane and react with braking maneuvers.

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

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-

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.

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).

align with the parking space.
@ Use the blue markings to help you estimate
the distance to an obstacle. Each marking
represents approximately 3 feet (1 meter).
The blue area represents an extension of the
vehicle's
outline by approximately 16 feet (5
meters) to the rear.

ZA\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 123.
— Sensors and cameras have spots in which
the surrounding area cannot be detected.
Objects, animals, and people may only be
detected with limitations may not be detect-
ed at all. Always monitor the traffic and the
vehicle's
surroundings directly and do not
become distracted.

©) Note
— The orange orientation lines @) show the di-
rection the rear of the vehicle will be travel-
ing, based on the steering wheel angle. The
front of the vehicle swings out more than
the rear of the vehicle. Maintain plenty of
distance so that an exterior mirror or a cor-
ner of the vehicle does not collide with any
obstacles.
— Keep enough distance from the curb to
avoid damage to the rims.
— Only use the images provided by the camera
on the rear of the vehicle when the luggage
compartment lid is completely closed. Make
sure any objects you may have mounted on
the luggage compartment lid do not block
the rearview camera.
G) Tips
— Applies to: vehicles with air suspension: The
accuracy of the orientation lines and blue
surfaces on the camera display decreases
when the vehicle is raised or lowered with
the air suspension.
— There is no distance warning for the rear
and the sides* when trailer towing mode is
detected. The front sensors remain activat-
ed. The visual display switches to trailer
mode. The rearview camera image will not
show the orientation lines and the blue sur-
faces. There is no guarantee the functions
will switch off when using a retrofitted trail-
er hitch.
