your vehicle >@).
Start parking using the park assist > page 137.
Maneuvering area
The vehicle can go off course during the parking
process
> A\. If there are obstacles within the
maneuvering area that block or endanger the
parking process, for example on the opposite
side of the street, a message may appear. You
may need to drive farther forward and stay closer
to the row of parking spaces.

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— 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.

@) Note
— Parking spaces classified as suitable by the
system may have been detected incorrectly.
136
The driver must decide if the parking space
displayed is suitable for the vehicle.
— Certain conditions near the parking space
may cause the parking process to fail, such
as if the parking space is near trees or posts,
or if the ground is covered, for example,
with gravel, snow, or ice.
(i) Tips
— If you did not drive past a suitable parking
space too quickly, the system can also be ac-
tivated afterwards by pressing P@ in the cen-
ter display.
— The Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC)
must not be switched off during the parking
process. If the ESC intervenes, the parking
process will be canceled.
— You can also drive into a perpendicular park-
ing space yourself and then activate the sys-
tem. If this is the case, the front of the vehi-
cle should already be in the space @)
=> page 135, fig. 115 so that the sensors
can measure the space.
— You cannot park with the parking assist sys-
tems when you are towing a trailer or have
the connector inserted in the trailer socket.
— The system is not available when certain as-
sist systems are switched on.
—If there are suitable parking spaces on both
sides of the street, for example on a one-
way street, you can change the side where
the system is searching for parking spaces
by activating the turn signal for the other
side or by pressing on that side in the center
display.
— The park systems do not provide support for
assisted parking on tight curves.
Park assist
General information
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
The park assist helps you when parking and exit-
ing parking spaces after the parking space
search. The park assist takes over the steering of
the vehicle while the driver accelerates, brakes,
and monitors the vehicle's surroundings. Park as-
sist can be interrupted at any time.

Parking and maneuvering


ZA\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— The driver is always responsible when enter-
ing or exiting a parking space and during
similar maneuvers.
— Do not use this function if the vehicle cannot
move freely, for example when on a vehicle
jack.
— 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
— Do not use the park assist systems when
transporting cargo that extends out of the
vehicle, when snow chains are mounted, or
when the parking space is on a hill or in-
cline.
— Park assist guides the vehicle either away
from curbs or onto them if other vehicles
are parked on the curb. Make sure that your
vehicle's tires and rims are not damaged.
Resume control of the vehicle in time or
stop the parking process if needed to pre-
vent damage.
G) Tips
Follow the legal regulations in the country
where you are located when using Park assist.
edema ee cy
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
Requirement: a suitable parking space must be
found and selected > page 134. The vehicle must
initially be stationary.
> Select the reverse gear after stopping briefly.
> Remove your hands from the steering wheel.
> Pay attention to the path of the vehicle. If the
traffic situation permits, accelerate carefully
of.
> Follow the visual instructions in the center dis-
play and the warning tones until the parking
process
has ended.
> The indicators in the center display show the
necessary direction of travel. Drive in the direc-
tion indicated by the arrows or symbols on the
roof in the parking aid image @) > page 135,

Park assist automatically steers the vehicle into
the parking space while the driver presses the
pedals. The maximum parking speed is approxi-
mately 4 mph (7 km/h).

Z\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— The park assist is an assist system. The driv-
er is still responsible for monitoring the ve-
hicle's surroundings and preventing colli-
sions when using the system.
— When using park assist to drive into or out
of a parking space, the steering wheel turns
quickly on its own. Reaching into the steer-
ing wheel spokes while this is happening can
result in injury.
@) Tips
You can also cancel the driving direction set
by the system by shifting between D and re-
verse gear. Based on the position of the vehi-
cle, the system then calculates the additional
steering and driving directions for maneuver-
ing.

an accident. Store objects securely while
driving.
— The mobile device may become hot during
wireless charging. Pay attention to the tem-
perature of your mobile device and be care-
ful when removing it from the Audi phone

wireless charging. Maintain a minimum dis-
tance of approximately 2.4 in (6 cm) to the
Audi phone box charging plate. The thresh-
olds for prolonged exposure at this distance
comply with ICNIRP1998. Therefore, inter-
actions such as irritation of sensory organs,
malfunctions of active implants (such as
pacemakers, infusion pumps, or neurosti-
mulators) or effects on passive implants
(such as prosthetic limbs) is highly unlikely.
If you have an implant, consult a medical
specialist if you have any questions. You can
