Emergency assist
Applies to: vehicles with emergency assist
General information
Within the limits of the system, emergency assist
can detect inactivity from the driver. In these in-
stances, the system will warn the driver, assume
control of the vehicle if necessary, and bring the
vehicle automatically to a stop in the lane.
Regardless of the speed, the emergency assist is
automatically available when the adaptive cruise
assist* is activated. When the adaptive cruise as-
sist* is deactivated, the system is only available
at speeds above approximately 40 mph
(65 km/h).
Emergency assist functions
Measures may be initiated in stages. The vehicle
can be controlled with the limits of the system.
The measures depend on the dangerous situation
and the vehicle equipment:
— Visual and audio warnings
— Vehicle control
— Reduction of vehicle speed in stages
— Lowers the volume of the Infotainment system
— Tugs on the safety belt
— Activates the brakes
— The emergency flashers are activated
— Audi pre sense preemptive safety measures are
triggered > page 167
— The brakes are applied until the vehicle is sta-
tionary
As soon as the vehicle comes to a full stop, the
vehicle prepares for the vehicle passengers to be
rescued. The parking brake is set, “P” gear is en-
gaged, the doors are unlocked, and the interior
lighting is activated. The emergency call?) will be
started if necessary once the vehicle has been
stationary for several seconds.
Checking and Filling
— Never reach into the radiator fan. The fan is
temperature-controlled and can turn on
suddenly, even when the ignition is switched
off.
— Never open the hood when there is steam or
coolant escaping from the engine compart-
ment, because there is a risk that you could
be burned. Wait until no steam or coolant is
escaping.
— Plug-in hybrid drive: The coolant expansion
tank cap is equipped with a seal that must
never be removed under any circumstances
=> page 262, fig. 164. If the coolant expan-
sion tank for the high-voltage system is not
sealed, please contact an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
— Plug-in hybrid drive: The sealed cap must
only be opened by an authorized Audi dealer
or authorized Audi Service Facility.
— The cap on the coolant expansion tank must
never be opened when the coolant is hot.
The cooling system is under pressure. There
is a risk of burns
— To protect your face, hands, and arms from
hot steam or coolant, cover the cap with a
thick cloth when opening.
— Do not remove the engine cover under any
circumstances. This increases the risk of
burns.
— Due to the risk of electric shock, never touch
the ignition cable or other components in
the electronic high-voltage ignition system
when the engine is running or is starting.
— If a gear is engaged while the vehicle is sta-
tionary and the engine is running, do not
press the accelerator pedal inadvertently.
Pressing the accelerator pedal will cause the
vehicle to move, and this could result in an
accident.
— If inspections or repairs must be performed
while the engine is running, moving compo-
nents (such as the ribbed belt, generator,
and radiator fan) pose an additional risk.
— Set the parking brake first and select the
“P” (Park) selector lever position.
— Always make sure that no parts of the
body, jewelry, ties, loose clothing, and
long hair can be caught in moving engine
components. Before any work, always re-
move any jewelry and/or ties, tie back long
hair, and make sure all clothing fits close
to the body to reduce the risk of anything
becoming caught in engine components.
— Pay attention to the following warnings list-
ed when work on the fuel system or on the
electrical equipment is required.
— Do not smoke.
— Never work near open flames.
— Always have a working fire extinguisher
nearby.
— All work on the battery or electrical system
in your vehicle can result in injuries, chemi-
cal burns, accidents, or burns. Because of
this, all work must be performed only by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility.
— Limit your exposure to exhaust and chemi-
cals to as short a time as possible.

Data privacy
typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehi-
cle is designed to record such data as:
— How various systems in your vehicle were oper-
ating;
— Whether or not the driver and passenger safety
belts were buckled/fastened;
— How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the
accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
— How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understand-
ing of the circumstances in which crashes and in-
juries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your
vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs;
no data are recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g.
name, gender, age, and crash location) are re-
corded. However, other parties, such as law en-
forcement, could combine the EDR data with the
type of personally identifying data routinely ac-
quired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equip-
ment is required, and access to the vehicle or the
EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manu-
facturer, other parties, such as law enforcement,
that have the special equipment, can read the in-
formation if they have access to the vehicle or the
EDR.
Assist system monitor
This vehicle is equipped with an Assist System
Monitor (ASM). The ASM collects data that is not
stored by the EDR in the event of an accident. The
main task of the ASM is to make it possible to un-
derstand the role and the behavior of the assist
systems in these accident situations. In addition
to the data that the EDR stores, the ASM records
data related to the assist systems starting sever-
al seconds before the accident or near-accident.
The data collected by ASM depends on the equip-
ment and may include the following information:
status information of the assist systems (for ex-
ample, if they are switched on or off, system
events, etc.), control interventions (for example,
D_ System availability may be limited depending on the mar-
ket.
2) In preparation at the time of printing.
322
by ESC, ABS, Audi pre sense’, etc.), and assist
systems settings (such as speed settings).
Special devices and access to the vehicle or to the
ASM are necessary in order to read the data from
the ASM memory. In addition to the vehicle man-
ufacturer, third parties such as law enforcement
authorities can also read and analyze the stored
data if they have access to the vehicle or to the
ASM.
Data usage
Audi can read out the information stored in the
data memories or similar data, or give this infor-
mation to third parties, especially in the follow-
ing situations:
— If the vehicle owner or lessee agrees
— If there is an official request from the police
— Ifa court or authorities request it
If legally permitted, Audi can also use the data
for analysis of vehicle operation and safety per-
formance or provide this data to third parties for
research purposes.
Data memory for autonomous driving!)
Applies to: vehicles with data memory for autonomous driv-
ing
When park assist plus is active > page 186, data
is stored in a memory in the vehicle. This data is
continuously overwritten by more current data
after a few seconds. The data is erased when the
ignition is switched off.
In certain situations, such as if an airbag has
been triggered or a parking process was ended,
the corresponding technical data may be stored
in the data memory for autonomous driving. The
data memory for autonomous driving is a read-
only memory that has a limited amount of stor-
age space. If the storage space is full, the oldest
data will be overwritten with the newest data. >
