Audi active lane assist
Traffic jam assist supports the driver when driv-
ing in traffic jams or in heavy traffic.
In a speed range under 40 mph (65 km/h), the
system can help to keep the vehicle within a lane
calculated by the system. Within the limits of the
system, the system controls the steering auto-
matically when adaptive cruise control is switch-
ed on. Since traffic jam assist is only an assist
system, the driver must always keep his or her
hands on the steering wheel and be ready to
steer. The driver can override the control at any
time by actively steering.
The system is designed for driving on express-
ways and highways.
Requirements for using traffic jam assist:
> The traffic jam assist is preselected in the MMI
settings: Select on the home screen: VEHICLE >
Driver assistance > Traffic jam assist.
> Adaptive cruise control must be switched on
and active > page 136.
If you open the Driver assist display in the on-
board computer = page 15, the indicator
light and the message Traffic jam assist will turn
on when a traffic jam is detected.

7} - Traffic jam assist switches off if the driver
does not take over steering after multiple driver
intervention requests. The system brakes the ve-
hicle until it is stationary.
Steering intervention request
If no steering activity is detected or the steering
power from the system is not sufficient, the driv-
er steering intervention request will alert the
driver using audio and visual signals. Take over
the steering and keep your hands on the steering
wheel so that you will be ready to steer at any
time.
If the driver does not take over steering, adaptive
cruise control (with traffic jam assist) will be
switched off. The system brakes the vehicle until
it is stationary.*

Z\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 121.
— The activated traffic jam assist is only an as-
sist system, and the driver is still responsi-
ble for controlling the vehicle. The driver is
especially responsible for braking, steering,
starting to drive, and controlling the speed
and the distance from other vehicles.
— Turn on the traffic jam assist only if the sur-
rounding conditions permit it. Always adapt
your driving style to the current visual,
weather, road, and traffic conditions.
— Switch the traffic jam assist off temporarily
when driving in turning lanes or highway ex-
its. This prevents the vehicle from accelerat-
ing to the stored speed when in these situa-
tions.

G) Tips
— Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel. The driver is always responsible for
adhering to the regulations applicable in
the country where the vehicle is being oper-
ated.
— Pay attention to applicable local regulations
relating to driving tasks, leaving space for
emergency vehicles, etc. The driver is always
142
responsible for following the laws that are
applicable in the location where the vehicle
is being operated.
— If traffic jam assist was deactivated through
the MMI, you can continue operating the
Audi active lane assist using the > fig. 125
button > page 144. The traffic jam assist
functions are no longer available.
— You are not necessarily guided to the center
of your lane.

wheel so that you will be ready to steer at any
time. The system may no longer be ready to pro-
vide warnings after a short time, and it will only
become active again later.
If the driver takes over steering, active lane assist
will be switched off.
Behavior when a turn signal is active
Applies to: vehicles with side assist: The system
will not warn you if you activate a turn signal be-
fore crossing the lane marker line. In this case, it
assumes that you are changing lanes intentional-
ly.
Applies to: vehicles with side assist: If the turn
signal is activated, lane assist is ready, and a lane
change has been classified as critical by lane as-
sist due to vehicles traveling beside you or due to
approaching vehicles, then a noticeable correc-
tive steering movement will occur briefly before
exiting the lane. This will attempt to keep your
vehicle in the lane.

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras page 121.
— The system warns the driver that the vehicle
is leaving the lane using corrective steering.
The driver is always responsible for keeping
the vehicle within the lane.
— Corrective steering may not occur at all in
certain situations, such as during heavy
braking. Always be ready to intervene.

G) Tips
— Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel so you can be ready to steer at any
time. The driver is always responsible for
adhering to the regulations applicable in
the country where the vehicle is being oper-
ated.
— The system does not provide any corrective
steering or steering wheel vibrations if it de-
tects that you are passing another vehicle.
