surroundings directly and do not become dis-
tracted.

() Note
— Obstacles may disappear from the measure-
ment range when approaching them, even if
they were already detected.
—Insome situations, the ability of the sen-
sors and cameras to detect and display cer-
tain objects may be limited.
— Objects located above the coverage area,
such as bumpers on parked cars, garage
doors that are partially open, or objects
that are hanging
— Low obstacles
— Narrow objects, such as barrier chains, fo-
liage, poles, or fences
— Projecting objects, such as trailer draw
bars
— Objects with certain surfaces and struc-
tures,
such as fabric
@) Tips
— The sensors and cameras and the areas
around them must not be obstructed be-
cause this can impair the function of the
systems that depend on them. Make sure
that the sensors and cameras are free of
snow, ice, and other deposits. Do not use
any accessories, stickers, or other objects
that extend into the range of the sensors
and cameras.
— On vehicles that have factory-installed li-
cense plate brackets on the front of the ve-
hicle, the brackets may only be replaced
with ones that are the same size and made
of the same material. Do not install any li-
cense plate brackets on the front of vehicles
that do not have factory-installed brackets.
Otherwise, the function of the system could
be impaired.
— The function of the sensors and cameras
may be limited when light and visibility con-
ditions are poor, for example when driving
into
a tunnel, when there is glare, or when
there are reflective objects.
— External ultrasonic sensors, such as those in
other vehicles, can interfere with the sen-
sors.
— The coverage areas of the sensors > fig. 99
and cameras > fig. 100 are diagrams and do
not represent a true-to-scale image of the
sensor ranges.
— The system complies with United States FCC
regulations and ISED regulations
=> page 284.

— The display may not appear on time when
vehicles are approaching or being passed
very quickly.


— 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-
rect.

OTe eed
Applies to: vehicles with side assist

You can adjust the side assist to your preferences.
The settings depend on the vehicle equipment.
> Applies to: MMI: Select on the home screen:
VEHICLE > Driver assistance > Side assist.
Possible settings:
The system can be switched on and off. If the sys-
tem is switched on, the displays in the exterior
mirrors will turn on briefly each time the ignition
is switched on.
Brightness - Change the brightness only when
side assist is switched on, so that the selected
setting can be checked in the exterior mirror dis-
plays. Adjust the brightness to a level where the
display will not interfere with your view ahead.
Because the display brightness automatically
adapts to the ambient light, it may have already
been adjusted to the highest or lowest setting
during the automatic adaptation.
@ Tips
— If you switch side assist on or off, the exit
warning will also switch on or off.
— Certain settings are automatically stored
and assigned to the remote control key be-
ing used.

IY ett Tel -1
Applies to: vehicles with side assist
fg or Eg is displayed when there is a malfunc-
tion, the side assist and exit warning system
functions may be unavailable or may be limited.
A message that indicates the cause and possible
solution
may appear with some displays. The
weather conditions may be too poor or a sensor
may be covered. Clean the sensor area at the rear
corners of the vehicle > page 119, fig. 102 and
try to turn the systems on again later.
If the malfunction remains, drive to an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty immediately to have the malfunction correct-
ed.
Exit warning

Applies icles with exit warning system




Fig. 122 Front door: exit warning
General information
Within system limits, the exit warning system
can detect traffic approaching from behind such
as vehicles, and provide assistance based on this
information when you are exiting the vehicle >

8W1012721BC
Driver assistance

=> fig. 121. The system uses the data from the ra-
dar sensors at the rear corners of the vehicle.
Displays and warnings
If a door is opened while the vehicle is stationary,
the warning strip @ on that door and the display
@ on that side of the vehicle will blink if another
road user is detected in a critical situation, If an-
other road user that is classified as critical is ap-
proaching while a door is already open, the dis-
plays on that door will turn on.
The same messages apply for the exit warning
system and side assist > page 148.

ZA WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 117.
— Always pay attention to traffic and to the
area around your vehicle. The exit warning
system does not replace the attention of the
vehicle occupants. The vehicle occupants are
always responsible for opening the doors
and exiting the vehicle.
— The exit warning system does not respond
to people and cannot warn you about every
type of approaching objects, such as cyclists.
Always monitor the traffic as well as the ve-
hicle's surroundings with direct eye contact.
— The display may not appear in time when
vehicles are approaching very quickly.
— The exit warning system does not react to
stationary objects or pedestrians.
— The exit warning system will not provide
alerts if your vehicle is pulled too far into
the parking space so that it is hidden by ad-
jacent vehicles.

@) Tips
— The exit warning is switched on or off by the
side assist warning > page 148.
— The exit warning system can be available for
up to approximately three minutes after un-
locking the vehicle and opening the door as
well as after switching off the ignition. Then
the displays flash briefly and the system
switches off.
— The display brightness for the exit warning
system cannot be adjusted.
—The coverage areas of the sensors > fig. 121
are diagrams and do not represent a true-
to-scale image of the sensor ranges.
— The system complies with United States FCC
regulations and ISED regulations
=> page 284.

to the parking space so that it is hidden by
adjacent vehicles.


— Once an automatic brake activation occurs,
the system cannot initiate another activa-
tion for several seconds.
— System functions may not be available if the
ESC is limited or switched off, or if there is a
malfunction.
— If there is an audio warning signal from the
rear cross-traffic assist, then the parking aid
may not be able to provide audio warnings
about detected obstacles under certain cir-
cumstances.
— The system complies with United States FCC
regulations and ISED regulations

Assisted parking
(ee eile laced)
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
If your vehicle is equipped with park assist, this
system helps you find suitable parking spaces.
Parking spaces are measured using ultrasonic
sensors on the sides of the vehicle.
The system helps you to park while the driver
monitors the vehicle's surroundings with the
parking aids, cameras*, and direct eye contact.
The vehicle moves the steering wheel autono-
mously.


Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 117.

ing options
Applies to: vehicles with park assist

Fig. 131 Parking options overview
Parking options
@ Backing into parallel parking spaces
@ Backing into perpendicular parking spaces
@®) Driving forward into perpendicular parking
spaces that you have already driven past
@) Driving forward into perpendicular parking
spaces if you have already driven to the space
yourself and the front of the vehicle is al-
ready in the space
Options for exiting parking spaces
@ Exiting parallel parking spaces


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 () so that
the sensors can measure the space.
