Driver assistance

— When a route is planned using the naviga-
tion system*, then system displays messag-
es based on an assumed route. Without
route guidance, the system displays mes-
sages based on an assumed route.
— The wording of the message may vary de-
pending on the selected Audi drive select*
mode and the selected gear. No messages
are displayed when in the "S" driving pro-
gram.
— Certain settings are stored automatically in
the active personal profile.
Predictive control
Applies to: vehicles with adaptive cruise assist and efficiency
assist
TT

Fig. 90 -Applies to: vehicles with Audi virtual cockpit- In-
strument cluster: speedometer: predictive control display
During predictive control), the adaptive cruise
assist uses data from the efficiency assist. The
system adapts the speed set in the adaptive
cruise assist to the speed limits that are detected
and the layout of the road. After that, the system
accelerates up to the speed that was set.
After switching on the ignition, the availability of
predictive control is indicated by a message when
the adaptive cruise assist is first activated.
The displays depend on the vehicle equipment.
Requirements
— The adaptive cruise assist must be actively reg-
ulating > page 134.
—The system can only react to speed limits that
are 20 mph (30 km/h) or higher.

D_ This is not available in some countries.

Display in the speedometer
The display in the speedometer is not available in
all layouts*.
@ The marking shows the set speed (regulated
speed that was set by the driver or by predic-
tive control).
@ Audi virtual cockpit: The red band shows the
difference between the speed limit and the
set speed.
@®) Audi virtual cockpit: the gray band shows if
the vehicle speed is planned to drop below
the set speed due to the road layout.
Overriding control
The driver can override the predictive control at
any time by pressing the accelerator or brake
pedal. If the system changes the vehicle speed to
adapt to speed limits, you can change the speed
using the lever > page 134, fig. 96.
Setting predictive control
You can switch off predictive control functions or
adjust them individually. The settings depend on
the vehicle equipment.
Applies to: MMI: Select on the home screen: VE-
HICLE > Driver assistance > (<) > Adaptive
cruise assist > Predictive control.
Possible settings:
Set speed limit - Adjusts to speed limits. You can
also set With tolerance if desired. In this scenar-
io, you may fall below or exceed the set speed in
favor of increased efficiency.
Adjustment to curves along route - Can be
switched Off or be set individually from Slow to
Fast. The setting influences vehicle handling with
predictive control, for example the speed for
driving through curves.
Messages
If and a message with Adaptive cruise assist:
Predictive control is displayed when there is a
malfunction, the efficiency assist functions are
unavailable or limited.

Driver assistance

— The driver&#39;s hands are not on the steering
wheel
Steering intervention request
If no steering activity is detected or the steering
power is not sufficient, the driver steering inter-
vention request will alert the driver using audio
and visual signals. Take over the steering and
keep your hands on the steering wheel so that
you will be ready to steer at any time. The system
will become inactive after a short time and will
only be active again later.
If the driver does not take over steering, adaptive
cruise assist will be canceled. If the vehicle is
equipped with emergency assist and it is ready to
function, it will be activated > page 151.

ZA WARNING
Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 115.

G@) Tips
— Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel. The driver is always responsible for
adhering to the regulations applicable in
the country where the vehicle is being oper-
ated.
— It is recommended to only switch on lane
guidance on well-constructed roads.
— Certain settings are stored automatically in
the active personal profile.
—The & fig. 97 button switches lane guidance
availability and the lane departure warning
on or off simultaneously, if lane guidance is
preset in the adaptive cruise assist settings.

Setting the distance
Applies to: vehicles with adaptive cruise assist

B4M-0234


Fig. 98 Operating lever: setting the distance
If you adjust the speed, you must also change the
time gap to the vehicle driving ahead. The higher
the speed, the greater the distance that is need-
ed.
> Tap the rocker switch to display the distance
that is currently set.
> To increase or decrease the distance in incre-
ments, tap the switch again toward G) or ().
The newly-set distance will be shown briefly, for

er assistance display, a graphic display is shown
instead of the indicator lights > page 133,
fig. 94. The display matches the functions of the
indicator lights.

When approaching a vehicle driving ahead, the
adaptive cruise assist brakes to the set speed and
then maintains the set distance. If the vehicle
driving ahead accelerates, then the adaptive
cruise assist will also accelerate up to the speed
that you have set.
The following distances can be set:

Lane departure warning
General information
Applies to: vehicles with lane departure warning
The lane departure warning can detect lane
marker lines within the limits of the system. If
you are approaching a detected lane marker and
it appears likely that you will leave the lane, the
system can warn you with corrective steering and
a steering wheel vibration, if necessary.
The system functions in the speed range of ap-
proximately 40 mph - 155 mph (65 km/h -
250 km/h).
Applies to: vehicles with lane departure warning
and without side assist: Even if the system is
ready, it will not warn you if you activate a turn
signal before crossing the lane marker line. In
this case, it assumes that you are changing lanes
intentionally.
Applies to: vehicles with lane departure warning
in combination with side assist: If the turn signal
is activated, the lane departure warning is ready,
and a lane change has been classified as critical
by the lane departure warning due to vehicles
traveling beside you or due to approaching
vehicles, then a noticeable corrective steering
movement will occur briefly before exiting the
lane. This will attempt to keep your vehicle in the
lane.

ZA\ WARNING
Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 115.
