To increase or reduce the distance by one level,
briefly press the rocker switch up or down

again.
The distance between the two vehicles
will be shown on the instrument cluster dis­
play.
When you draw closer to a vehicle in front, the
adaptive cruise control matches your speed to
that vehicle by applying the brakes, and then
maintains a constant distance (which you can ad­
just in the settings). If the vehicle in front accel­
erates, the adaptive cruise control will also accel­
erate up to the target speed you have specified.
The higher the speed, the higher the distance

•=> A-
We recommend using the distance 3 set­

ting.
You will then be following the general rec­
ommendations of automobile clubs, traffic au­
thorities, etc.
The actual distance maintained by the adaptive
cruise control may be longer or shorter, depend­
ing on the traffic situation and the driving style
of the driver in front.
If you change the gap, the new setting will be
shown briefly on the instrument cluster display,

e.g.
fcjfor distance 3. This only happens when
the adaptive cruise control display is not visible in
the instrument cluster

- There are no Lane markings.
- The system cannot detect the relevant lane
markings (e.g. temporary markings for road
works or markings obscured by snow, dirt, rain
or adverse light).
- The vehicle's speed is below 65 km/h, the
speed at which the lane assist system is activa­
ted (the threshold may vary in different export
markets).
- The traffic lane is too narrow or too wide.
- The bend is too tight.
- You have taken your hands off the steering

wheel.

Location of the sensors
The side assist is active above a speed of
about 15 km/h.

Vehicles approaching from behind
In certain cases, a vehicle
is
judged to be critical
in the event of
a
lane change even if it is still
some distance away. The faster a vehicle ap­
proaches, the earlier the warning will appear on
the exterior mirror.
(2) Vehicles moving at a similar speed
The warning lamp in the relevant exterior mirror
will warn you of vehicles that are moving with the
flow of traffic at about the same speed as you if
they are judged to be critical in the event of
a

lane change. In all cases, the side assist will give
a warning for the vehicles it has detected at the
latest when they enter the "blind spot".

(§)
Other vehicles being overtaken
When you are overtaking another vehicle slowly,
with a speed differential of Less than about
15 km/h, the warning lamp in the exterior mirror
will light up as soon as the other vehicle enters
your blind spot.
If
you
are overtaking another vehicle quickly,
with a speed differential of more than about
15 km/h, the warning lamp will not light up.
System limitations
The radar sensors are designed for normal lane
widths and monitor the lanes immediately to the
left and right of your vehicle. In certain situations
the warning lamp on one of the exterior mirrors
may light up even if no vehicle is travelling in an
area that could be critical in the event of
a
lane
change. For example:
- When you are travelling in a narrow Lane or
when you are not travelling in the centre of the

lane.
In this case the system may monitor an­
other lane and register a vehicle that is nor in
fact travelling in an adjacent lane.
- When you are driving into a bend. The side as­
sist may react to a vehicle two lanes away.
- If the system detects other objects (such as
crash barriers, etc).
- In poor weather conditions. The functionality of
the side assist is then restricted.
The radar sensors
^>Fig.
120 must not be ob­
structed by stickers, bicycle racks, deposits or any
other substances which could impair the function
of the system. The side assist must not be used
when towing a trailer. For notes on cleaning,
please refer to
^>page
312.
WARNING
- Always watch the road and the area sur­
rounding the vehicle. The side assist feature
is not
a
substitute for the full concentration
of the driver. The driver is always responsi­
ble for the safety of Lane changes and other
manoeuvres.

- In certain situations, the system may not
function properly, or the functionality of the
system may be restricted. For example:
- If other vehicles are approaching very
quickly, or if
you
are overtaking other
vehicles quickly. The warning lamp may
not light up
intime.

- In poor weather conditions, such as heavy

rain,
snow or road spray.
- If
you
are travelling in very wide lanes, in
tight bends or over crests. The system
may not detect vehicles in the adjacent
lane because they are outside the area
covered by the sensors.
© CAUTION
Impacts or damage to the bumper, wheel
arches or underbody can cause misalignment
of the sensors. This can impair the functional­
ity of the system. Have the systems checked
by
a
qualified workshop.
The warning lamps on the exterior mirrors
may not be properly visible if tinted foil is af­
fixed to the side windows on the driver's or
passenger's side.
Switching on/off
Applies to: vehicles with Audi side assist

The
system can be switched on and off
on
the in­
fotainment system.

The brightness of the warning lamp in both the
information and warning modes is regulated au­
tomatically according to the ambient Light Level.
If
you
are in very dark
or
very Light surroundings
when you adjust the brightness of the warning

lamp,
the automatic brightness control may al­
ready have reached the lowest or the brightest

setting.
In such a case it is possible
that
you
won't notice a difference while you are adjusting
the brightness or that you will only notice it once
the light surroundings have changed.
Please adjust the brightness of the warning lamp
for the information mode so that it does not dis­
tract you while you are looking at the road in
front. When you change the brightness, the
warning lamp on the exterior mirror will light up
briefly with the intensity set for the information

mode.
The intensity of the lamp in the warning
mode is Linked to the intensity in the information
mode and is adjusted automatically.

- The side assist is not active while the set­
tings are being adjusted.

Parking aids
Parking aids
General notes
Applies to: vehicles with rear parking aid/parking system
plus/reversing camera/park assist
Various systems are available to help you when
parking or manoeuvring in tight spaces, depend­
ing on the equipment fitted on your vehicLe.
The rear parking aid gives an acoustic warning if
there are any obstacles behind the car

cépage
135.
When you are parking, the parking system plus
warns you acoustically and optically about obsta­
cles detected in front of and behind the vehicLe

^page
135.
The reversing camera uses the infotainment sys­
tem display to show a picture of the area behind
the vehicle captured by the camera. This picture
helps you to park the vehicle parallel or perpen­
dicular to the roadside. In addition, you are assis­
ted by the functions of the parking system plus

^>page
137.
The park assist helps you to find suitable parking
spaces, to manoeuvre the vehicLe into spaces par­
allel or perpendicular to the roadside and to drive
out of spaces parallel to the kerb
^>page
139. It
also includes the functions of the parking system
plus
^page
135 and additionally monitors the
area at the side of the vehicle
(f) ^page
135,
Fig. 124.

A
WARNING
- Always watch the road and the area sur­
rounding the vehicLe. The electronic systems
cannot replace the full concentration of the
driver. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and all other manoeu­

vres.

- Please note that certain surfaces, such as
clothing fabrics, cannot be detected or dis­
played by the system - risk of accident!
- The sensors and cameras have bLind spots in
which neither people nor objects are regis­

tered.
It is particularly important to ensure
that there are no small children or animals
near the vehicLe - risk of accident!
- Always keep a close watch on the area
around the vehicLe and make full use of the
rear-view mirrors.
- Impacts or damage to the radiator grille,
bumper, wheel arches or underbody can
cause misalignment of the sensors. This can
impair the effectiveness of the parking aids.
Have the systems checked by a qualified
workshop.

(T)
CAUTION
- The system may not always be able to de­
tect objects such as the following:
- Chains, trailer draw bars, posts or fences
- Objects above the sensors, such as wall
protrusions, etc.
- Objects with certain surfaces or struc­

tures,
such as wire fences or powder snow
- As your car moves closer to low obstacles,
they may disappear from the sensors' field
of vision. Please note
that
you will no longer
be warned about these obstacles.
- Remember to maintain sufficient clearance
from the kerb to avoid damaging the wheel

rims.

(T)
Note
- In certain situations, a warning may be giv­
en by the system even if there is no obstacle
within range of the sensors. This can be
caused by the following, for instance:
- Certain road surfaces or long grass
- External ultrasound sources, e.g. from
street cleaning vehicles
- Heavy rain or snow or dense exhaust
fumes
-To familiarise yourself with the system, we
recommend
that
you practise parking in a
quiet location or a car park. The weather
and light conditions should be good.
- You can change the display and adjust the
volume and pitch of the beeps
