ing the vehicle in front of a trailer.
— Applies to: vehicles with peripheral cameras:
Switch to the Rear view > page 179, fig. 140.
— Select -| > Trailer view in the center display
when the parking system is active.


Now you can position your vehicle in front of the
trailer. The orange orientation line ©) > fig. 139
indicates the expected path toward the trailer
hitch. Use the blue markings ©) to help you esti-
mate the distance to the trailer hitch. Each mark-
ing represents approximately 1 foot (0.30 me-
ters). The width of the blue surface represents
the maximum steering wheel angle.
Symbols
Applies to: vehicles with peripheral cameras
If $2/&®/< 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 one of the symbols continues to be displayed,
drive immediately to an authorized Audi dealer or
178
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 141.

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

accuracy of the orientation lines and blue
surfaces on the camera display decreases
when the vehicle is raised or lowered with
the air suspension.
— There is no distance warning for the rear
and the sides* when trailer towing mode is
detected. The front sensors remain activat-
ed. The visual display switches to trailer
mode. There is no guarantee the functions
will be deactivated when using a retrofitted
trailer hitch.

reverse gear is selected.
— The speed when driving in reverse must not be
higher than approximately 9 mph (15 km/h).
Displays, warnings, and braking
— Display: the display @ appears only when the
parking aid is active. For vehicles with peripher-
al cameras, this only happens in the Rear and
Rear corner camera views. Arrows show the di-
rection from which the cross traffic is approach-
ing.
— Audible warnings: a continuous tone may
sound as an additional warning when driving in
reverse.
— Automatic brake activation: if you do not react
to a warning, a brief braking by the system can
