tomatically switched on when the ignition is
switched on and the light switch is set to the O
or the AUTO position (only in daylight). The
Daytime running lights can be switched on and
off in the MMI > page 37 > A.

Buttons
When you turn the light switch to the AUTO or
low beam headlight position 20, you can activate
the following functions:
36
So - All-weather lights*. The headlights automat-
ically adjust so that there will be less glare, for
example when the road surface is wet.
Q# - Rear fog lights*
Automatic dynamic headlight range control
system*
Your vehicle is equipped with a headlight range
control system so that there is less glare for on-
coming traffic if the vehicle load changes. The
headlight range also adjusts automatically when
braking and accelerating.
Light functions
The following light functions are available de-
pending on vehicle equipment and only function
when the light switch is in the AUTO position.
Static cornering light* (vehicles with LED head-
lights) - the cornering light switches on automat-
ically when the steering wheel is turned at a cer-
tain angle at speeds up to approximately 44 mph
(70 km/h) and when the turn signal is activated
at speeds up to approximately 25 mph
(40 km/h). The area to the side of the vehicle is
illuminated better when turning.
Highway light function* (vehicles with LED head-
lights) - This function adapts the lighting for
highway driving based on vehicle speed.
Speed dependent light distribution* (vehicles
with LED headlights) - The speed dependent light
distribution adapts the light in towns and on
highways or expressways. Intersections can also
be illuminated on vehicles with a navigation sys-
tem*.
ZA WARNING
— Automatic headlights* are only intended to
assist the driver. The driver is still responsi-
ble for controlling the headlights and may
need to switch them on and off manually
depending on light and visibility conditions.
For example, fog cannot be detected by the
light sensors. So always switch on the low
beams under these weather conditions and
when driving in the dark ZO. >

Parking aid

Parking aid
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with rear parking system/parking system
plus
Depending on the vehicle equipment, various
parking aids will help you when parking and ma-
neuvering.
The rear parking system is an audible parking aid
that warns you of obstacles behind the vehicle
=> page 98.
The parking aid plus assists you while parking by
audibly and visually warning you of objects de-
tected in front of and behind the vehicle
=> page 99.
The rearview camera shows the area behind the
vehicle in the Infotainment system display. The
lines in the rearview camera image help you to
park or maneuver > page 700.

ZA WARNING
— Always look for traffic and check the area
around your vehicle by looking at it directly
as well. The systems cannot replace the
driver's attention. The driver is always re-
sponsible when entering or exiting a parking
space and during similar maneuvers.
— Please note that some surfaces, such as
clothing, are not detected by the system.
— Sensors and cameras have blind spots in
which people and objects cannot be detect-
ed. Be especially cautious of small children
and animals.
— The sensors can be displaced by impacts or
damage to the radiator grille, bumper,
wheel housing and the underbody. The park-
ing aid may be impaired as a result. Have an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility check their function.
— Make sure the sensors are not obstructed by
stickers, deposits or other materials. If they
are, the sensor function could be impaired.
For additional information on cleaning, see
> page 236.

@) Note
— Some objects are not detected or displayed
by the system under certain circumstances:
— objects such as barrier chains, trailer draw
bars, vertical poles or fences
— objects above the sensors such as wall ex-
tensions
— objects with certain surfaces or structures
such as chain link fences or powder snow
— If you continue driving closer to a low ob-
ject, it may disappear from the sensor
range. Note that you will no Longer be
warned about this obstacle.
— Maintain enough distance from the curb to
reduce the risk of damage to the rims.
@) Tips
— The system may provide a warning even
though there are no obstacles in the cover-
age area in some situations, such as:
— certain road surfaces or when there is tall
grass
— external ultrasonic sources such as from
cleaning vehicles
—in heavy rain, snow, or thick vehicle ex-
haust
— Audi recommends practicing parking ina
traffic-free location or parking lot to be-
come familiar with the systems. Practice
parking in good light and weather condi-
tions.
— You can change the volume of the signals.
— What appears in the display is slightly de-
layed.
— The sensors must be kept clean and free of
snow and ice for the parking aid to operate.
Rear parking system
Applies to: vehicles with rear parking system
The rear parking system is an audible aid.
Description
There is a sensor in the rear bumper cover. If
these detect an obstacle, audible signals warn
you.

8S1012721BE
Parking aid

Make sure the sensors are not covered by stick-
ers, deposits or any other obstructions as it may
impair the sensor function. For information on
cleaning, see > page 236.
The range at which the sensors begin to measure
is approximately:


Side 3 feet
(0.90 m)
Rear
Center 5.2 feet
(1.60 m)

The closer you get to the obstacle, the shorter
the interval between the audible signals. A con-
tinuous tone sounds when the obstacle is less
than approximately 1 foot (0.30 meters) away.
Do not continue backing up > A in Introduction
on page 98, > © in Introduction on page 98!
If the distance to an obstacle remains constant,
the volume of the distance warning gradually
drops after about four seconds (this does not ap-
ply in the continuous tone range).
Activating
The rear parking assist activates automatically
when the reverse gear is engaged. A brief tone
will sound.
Parking system plus
Description
Applies to: vehicles with parking aid plus

Parking system plus provides audio and visual
signals when parking.

BFV-0262

Fig. 104 Principle of operation
Sensors are located in the front and rear bump-
ers. If these detect an obstacle, audible and visu-
al signals warn you.
Make sure the sensors are not covered by stick-
ers, deposits or any other obstructions as it may
impair the sensor function. For information on
cleaning, see > page 236.
The display field begins approximately at:



@ 4 feet (1.20 m)
@ 3 feet (0.90 m)
® 5.2 feet (1.60 m)
@ 3 feet (0.90 m)

The closer you get to the obstacle, the shorter
the interval between the audible signals. A con-
tinuous tone sounds when the obstacle is less
than approximately 1 foot (0.30 meters) away.
Do not continue driving forward or in reverse
=> A in Introduction on page 98, >@ in Introduc-
tion on page 98!
If the distance to an obstacle remains constant,
the volume of the distance warning gradually
drops after about four seconds (this does not ap-
ply in the continuous tone range).
