ZA WARNING
Incorrect seating positions, failure to wear a
safety belt, or being too close to an airbag in-
crease the risk of serious or fatal injury to ve-
hicle occupants, especially if the airbags de-
ploy and come into contact with occupants
who are not seated correctly. Note the impor-
tant information and warnings in the chapters
for the topics given above.
G) Tips

coming closer or that are traveling with you with-
in sensor range @) > fig. 99: if a lane change is
classified as critical, the display @) in the exterior
mirror > fig. 100 turns on.
The display in the left exterior mirror provides as-
sistance when making a lane change to the left,
while the display in the right exterior mirror pro-
vides assistance when making a lane change to
the right.
Information stage
As long as you do not activate the turn signal,
side assist informs you about vehicles that are
detected and classified as critical. The display in
the mirror turns on, but is dim.
The display remains dim in the information stage
so that your view toward the front is not distur-
bed.
Warning stage
If you activate the turn signal, side assist warns
you about vehicles that are detected and classi-
fied as critical. The display in the respective mir-
ror blinks brightly. If this happens, check traffic
by glancing in the exterior mirrors and over your

Side assist functions at speeds above approxi-
mately 19 mph (30 km/h).
@ Approaching vehicles
In certain cases, a vehicle will be classified as
critical for a lane change even if it is still some-
what far away. The faster a vehicle approaches,
the sooner the display in the outside mirror will
turn on.
@ Vehicles traveling with you
Vehicles traveling in the same direction as your
vehicle are indicated in the exterior mirror if they
are classified as critical for a lane change. All >

Assist systems

vehicles detected by side assist are indicated by
the time they enter your “blind spot”, at the lat-
est.
@ Vehicles you are passing
If you slowly pass a vehicle that side assist has
detected (the difference in speed between the ve-
hicle and your vehicle is less than 9 mph (15 km/
h)), the display in the exterior mirror turns on as
soon as the vehicle enters your blind spot.
The display will not turn on if you quickly pass a
vehicle that side assist has detected (the differ-
ence in speed is greater than 9 mph (15 km/h)).
Functional limitations
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 one lane over from
the adjacent lane.
— If side assist reacts to other objects (such as
high or displaced guard rails).
— In poor weather conditions. The side assist
functions are limited.
Do not cover the radar sensors > fig. 102 with
stickers, deposits, bicycle wheels or other ob-
jects, because they will impair the function. For
information on cleaning, see > page 235.

ZA WARNING
— Always pay attention to traffic and to the
area around your vehicle. Side assist cannot
replace a driver's attention. The driver alone
is always responsible for lane changes and
similar driving maneuvers.
—Insome situations, the system may not
function or its function may be limited. For
example:

—If vehicles are approaching or being left
behind very quickly. The display may not
turn on in time.
— In poor weather conditions such as heavy
rain, snow or heavy mist.
— On very wide lanes, in tight curves, or if
there is a rise in the road surface. Vehicles
in the adjacent lane may not be detected
because they are outside of the sensor
range.
() Note
The sensors can be displaced by impacts or
damage to the bumper, wheel housing and
underbody. This can impair the system. Have
an authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility check their function.
@ Tips
— If the window glass in the driver's door or
front passenger's door has been tinted, the
display in the exterior mirror may be incor-
he Ges

Care and cleaning


follow the instructions from the car wash
operator.
—To reduce the risk of cuts, protect yourself
from sharp metal components when wash-
ing the underbody or the inside of the wheel
housings.
— After washing the vehicle, the braking effect
may be delayed due to moisture on the
brake rotors or ice in the winter. This in-
creases the risk of an accident. The brakes
must be dried with a few careful brake appli-
cations.

@) Note
— If you wash the vehicle in an automatic car
wash, you must retract the extendable rear
spoiler* if necessary, and fold the exterior
mirrors in to reduce the risk of damage.
Power folding exterior mirrors* must only
be folded in and out using the power folding
function.
—To reduce the risk of paint damage, do not
wash the vehicle in direct sunlight.
—To reduce the risk of damage, do not wash
decorative decals* with a pressure washer.
—To reduce the risk of damage, do not wash
the power top with a pressure washer.
—To reduce the risk of damage to the surface,
do not use insect removing sponges, kitchen
sponges, or similar items.
— When washing matte finish painted vehicle
components:
— To reduce the risk of damage to the sur-
face, do not use polishing agents or hard
wax.
— Never use protective wax. It can destroy
the matte finish effect.
— Do not place any stickers or magnetic
signs on vehicle components painted with
matte finish paint. The paint could be
damaged when the stickers or magnets
are removed.
@) For the sake of the environment
Only wash the vehicle in facilities specially de-
signed for that purpose. This will reduce the
risk of dirty water contaminated with oil from
entering the sewer system.
