Z\ WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 138.
— High beam assistant is only intended to as-
sist the driver. The driver is responsible for
controlling the high beam headlights and
adjusting them to match the lighting and
visibility conditions.
— High beams can cause glare for other driv-
ers, which increases the risk of an accident.
For this reason, only use the high beams or
the headlight flasher when they will not cre-
ate glare for other drivers.
G) Tips
Adhere to any local applicable regulations
when using the lighting equipment, for exam-
ple in regard to reducing glare for other driv-
ers. The driver is always responsible for adher-
ing to the regulations applicable in the coun-
try where the vehicle is being operated.

An additional module integrated in the headlight
converts a blue laser light into a white light using
a luminescent material.
Activating or deactivating laser lights
Requirement: the AUTO light function must be
set, and the high beam assistant and the laser
lights must be switched on in the MMI
=> page 55.
The high beam is controlled by the high beam as-
sistant. The laser lights switch on shortly after
the
LED high beams are switched on.
> To activate the high beam assistant, tap the
lever forward @) > page 53, fig. 36. The fa in-
dicator light will appear in the instrument clus-
ter display and the high beams will be switched

Parking and maneuvering
Applies to: vehicles with rearview camera/peripheral cameras
Fig. 124 Upper display: aiming at a parking space
When parking with the rearview camera or pe-
ripheral camera, the parking system plus audio
and visual warnings* will also assist you
=> page 177.
Visual orientation lines
@ The orange orientation lines show the vehi-
cle's direction of travel >@. Turn the steer-
ing wheel until the orange orientation lines
align with the parking space.
@) Use the blue markings to help you estimate
the distance to an obstacle. Each marking
represents approximately 3 feet (1 meter).
The blue area represents an extension of the
vehicle's outline by approximately 16 feet (5
meters) to the rear.
@® You can recognize the rear bumper in the
lower display.
@ You should stop driving in reverse when the
red orientation line touches the edge of an
object, at the latest.
Symbols
If 2/&9/< is displayed and the display area
represented by that symbol is not available, then
the camera on the that side is not available. The
power exterior mirrors may have been folded in
or a door or the luggage compartment lid may
have been opened.
If # is displayed, there is a system malfunction
and the display area represented by that symbol
is not available. The camera is not working in this
area.

If Avis displayed, the respective ultrasonic sensor
is icy or dirty. Clean the area in front of the sen-
sors > page 140.
If one of the symbols continues to be displayed,
drive immediately to an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility to have the mal-
function repaired.
ZA WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 138.
— 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
— The orange orientation lines @ show the di-
rection the rear of the vehicle will be travel-
ing, based on the steering wheel angle. The
front of the vehicle swings out more than
the rear of the vehicle. Maintain plenty of
distance so that an exterior mirror or a cor-
ner of the vehicle does not collide with any
obstacles.
— Keep enough distance from the curb to
avoid damage to the rims.
— Only use the images provided by the camera
on the rear of the vehicle when the luggage
compartment lid is completely closed. Make
sure any objects you may have mounted on
the luggage compartment lid do not block
the rearview camera.
G) Tips
Applies to vehicles with air suspension: The
accuracy of the orientation lines and blue sur-
faces on the camera display decreases when
the vehicle is raised or lowered with the air
suspension.

Parking and maneuvering
the vehicle is too far. Make sure the connec-
tion is sufficient, and when in doubt, resume
parking the vehicle yourself.
— Blocking notifications, tones, and vibrations
increase the risk of an accident. The myAudi
app can only warn you if dangers are detect-
ed if you make sure that your mobile device
allows all notifications, tones, and vibra-
tions for the myAudi app.
@) Note
— Do not use remote controlled parking when
transporting cargo that projects outside of
the vehicle or when snow chains are mount-
ed.
— Remote controlled parking may guide 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 ve-
hicle in time or stop the parking process if
needed to prevent damage.
— In parking spaces without curbs, maintain a
distance of at least 19 inches (50 cm) from
walls and buildings in order to reduce the
risk of vehicle damage.
@) Tips
— Follow the legal regulations in the country
where you are operating the vehicle when
using remote controlled parking. Remote
controlled parking may be prohibited in
some countries. The system may be unavail-
able in countries where it has been deacti-
vated in order to comply with legal regula-
tions. Data will not be transmitted to Audi.
The driver is always responsible for adhering
to the regulations applicable in the country
where the vehicle is being operated.
— Any individual that uses the mobile device
for remote controlled parking is considered

parking that are applicable in the country
where the vehicle is being operated.
— Do not endanger any other road users when
using remote controlled parking. Testing re-
mote controlled parking in a parking lot
with minimal traffic is recommended.
— Your mobile device should have a sufficient
battery charge level. If necessary, charge
the mobile device before starting to drive.
— Do not use the remote controlled parking
function with devices that are faulty or dam-
aged or whose function is impaired. Only
use the operating systems approved by the
mobile device manufacturer.
— When using remote controlled parking, al-
ways pay attention to the areas where your
vehicle can be accessed. Check that no one
can enter your vehicle and if the vehicle has
been locked after parking is completed.
Take the vehicle key with you when leaving
the vehicle.

G) Tips
— When parking in garages, you can be
straight in front of the garage or at a slight
angle in front of the garage. You will have
the best results when you align and stop
your vehicle as straight as possible in front
of the garage.
— If there is enough space in a two-car garage,
the system automatically selects the park-
ing position in front of the vehicle that the
driver has selected.

Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with telephone
You can operate various telephone functions easi-
ly through the MMI in your vehicle.
Depending on the country and the vehicle equip-
ment, the following options may be available:
— Connecting a cell phone with Bluetooth
— Using two telephones
— Using the Audi phone box
ZA WARNING
— Medical experts warn that mobile devices
can interfere with the function of pacemak-
ers. Always maintain a minimum distance of
about 7.9 inches (20 cm) between the mo-
bile device antennas and the pacemaker.
— Do not carry the mobile device in a pocket
directly over the pacemaker when the
phone is switched on.
— Switch the mobile device off immediately
if you suspect it may be interfering with
the pacemaker.
— Do not use the voice recognition system*
=> page 29 in emergencies because your
voice may change in stressful situations. The
system may take longer to dial the number
or may not be able to dial it at all. Dial the
emergency number manually.
— Switch your mobile device off in areas where
there is a risk of an explosion. These loca-
tions are not always clearly marked. This
may include gas stations, fuel and chemical
storage facilities or transport vehicles, or lo-
cations where fuel vapors (such as propane
or gasoline vapor in vehicles or buildings),
chemicals or large quantities of dust parti-
cles (such as flour, sawdust or metal) may
be present in the air. This also applies to all
other locations where you would normally
turn your vehicle engine off.
— The demands of traffic require your full at-
tention. Always read the chapter > page 21,
Traffic safety information.
CG) Note
Read the information about Audi connect, and
be sure to note the connectivity costs section
=> page 208.
G@) Tips
— The Bluetooth connection range is limited
to inside the vehicle.
—Aselection of supported Bluetooth devices
