Audi pre sense front
Applies to: vehicles with Audi pre sense front
The Audi pre sense front system uses the data
from the radar sensors and calculates the proba-
bility of a rear-end collision. Within the limits of
the system, an impending collision with the front
of the vehicle can be detected in both urban and
rural speed ranges.
Audi pre sense front is active at speeds of approx-
imately 3 mph (5 km/h) and higher. The system
can respond to pedestrians crossing the street or
going in the same direction of travel 3) at speeds
up to 40 mph (65 km/h). It can also respond to
stationary vehicles at speeds up to 52 mph (85
km/h) as well as to vehicles driving ahead or
stopped vehicles at speeds up to 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 vehicle is traveling at speeds between ap-
proximately 20 to 50 mph (30 to 85 km/h) and
it approaches a stationary vehicle.
— Your vehicle is traveling at speeds between ap-
proximately 20 to 155 mph (30 to 250 km/h)
and it approaches a vehicle that is clearly trav-
eling more slowly or a vehicle in your direction
of travel that is stopped.
— Ifa crossing pedestrian?) moves into the lane
and you are driving at speeds between approxi-
mately 18 to 40 mph (30 to 65 km/h).
— If a pedestrian is moving in your direction of
travel and in your lane 2) and you are driving at
speeds between approximately 18 to 40 mph
(30 to 65 km/h).
The message Audi pre sense o and a warning
tone will warn you about the danger.
If there is an impending collision with vehicles,
there may also be an acute warning inthe form >

General information
Side assist monitors the blind spot and traffic be-
hind your vehicle. Within the limits of the sys-
tem, side assist can detect traffic that is ap-
proaching from behind and provide a warning
when you are changing lanes. The system uses
the data from the radar sensors at the rear cor-
ners of the vehicle.
The side assist is active at walking speeds and
higher. If an object that is classified as critical is
approaching, the display in the exterior mirror @)
on the corresponding side of the vehicle will light
up.
Driving situations
The system can provide warnings about the fol-
lowing risks:
@ Vehicles that are approaching: a vehicle may
be classified as critical in some cases, even if
it is farther away. The faster a vehicle ap-
proaches, the sooner the display in the out-
side mirror will turn on.
@® Vehicles traveling in the same direction: the
indicator will turn on in the outside mirror
when vehicles traveling in the same direction
are classified as critical. The side assist warns
you of all detected vehicles when they are in
the blind spot or before they reach that
point.
@ Vehicles you are passing: if you slowly pass a
vehicle that side assist has detected (the dif-
ference in speed between the vehicle and
your vehicle is less than 9 mph (15 km/h )),
the display in the exterior mirror will turn on
when the vehicle enters your blind spot. The
display will not turn on if you quickly pass a
vehicle that side assist has detected (the dif-
ference in speed is greater than approximate-
ly 9 mph (15 km/h)).
Information stage
At the information level, the side assist informs
you of detected objects that are classified as criti-
cal.
The display remains dim in the information stage
so that you are not distracted while looking for-
ward.

Driver assistance

Warning stage
If the display in a mirror blinks brightly when you
activate a turn signal, side assist is warning you
about detected objects classified as critical.
Depending on the vehicle equipment and other
driver assistance systems, the display on the re-
spective mirror may also flash if you have not
turned on the turn signal: If you are approaching
a detected lane marker line and it appears you
will be leaving the lane, the display on the mirror
will warn you about detected vehicles that it has
classified as critical. You can also be warned with
corrective steering > page 119, Lane departure
warning.
Detection range
The radar sensors are designed to detect the left
and right adjacent lanes when the road lanes are
the normal width. In some situations, the display
in the exterior mirror may turn on even though
there is no vehicle located in the area that is criti-
cal for a lane change. For example:
— If the lanes are narrow or if you are driving on
the edge of your lane. If this is the case, the
system may have detected a vehicle in another
lane that is not adjacent to your current lane.
— If you are driving through a curve. Side assist
may react to a vehicle that is in the same lane
or one lane over from the adjacent lane.
—If side assist reacts to other objects (such as
roadside structures like guard rails).

ZA\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 104.
— The display may not appear on time when
vehicles are approaching or being passed
very quickly.

@ Tips
— 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.
— For an explanation on conformity with the
FCC regulations in the United States and the
Industry Canada regulations, see
=> page 261.

may need to drive farther forward and stay closer
to the row of parking spaces.

A WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 104.
— The driver is always responsible when enter-
ing or exiting a parking space and during
similar maneuvers.
— 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.

CG) Note
— Parking spaces classified as suitable by the
system may have been detected incorrectly.
