Parking and maneuvering

© Two-car garages”
@ Tips
— 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.
— You can also drive into a perpendicular park-
ing space yourself and then activate the sys-
tem. If this is the case, the front of the vehi-
cle should already be in the space () so that
the sensors can measure the space.

limits of the assist systems, sensors, and

cameras > page 150.

Messages
Applies to: vehicles with park assist plus
If the & or w indicator light turns on, the
park assist is not available or was interrupted.
A message that indicates the cause and possible
solution may appear with some displays. The
weather conditions may be too poor or a sensor
may be covered. Clean the area in front of the
sensors > page 152 and try to turn the system on
again later.

Remote controlled
parking!)2)
ere eeuel ela)
Applies to: vehicles with remote park assist plus
Remote controlled parking is part of park assist
plus/park assist plus with garage function. The
process for parking or exiting a parking space can
be controlled with a mobile device from outside
the vehicle. To do so, the driver must have both
the vehicle key and the mobile device with him or
her. While the driver controls the vehicle remote-
ly and monitors the vehicle's surroundings, the
system controls the steering, gear selection, ac-
celeration, braking, and locking the vehicle.

ZX WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 150.

ket.

— Remote controlled parking is only an assist
system. The driver is always responsible for
maneuvering, driving, and stopping the ve-
hicle and performing other driving maneu-
vers.
— Do not use this function if the vehicle cannot
move freely, for example when on a vehicle
jack.
— Failing to pay careful attention to the vehi-
cle's surroundings increases the risk of an
accident. Sensors and cameras have spots in
which the surrounding area cannot be de-
tected. Objects, animals, and people may
only be detected with limitations may not
be detected at all. Always monitor the traf-
fic as well as the vehicle's surroundings with
direct eye contact. Stay near the vehicle
while controlling it. Make sure you have a
clear view of the vehicle and the area sur-
rounding it. Do not become distracted.
— Applies to: vehicles with anti-theft alarm
system: There is a risk of fatal injury for peo-
ple locked in the vehicle, especially children.
The vehicle is locked during remote control-
led parking. Make sure there are no persons
inside the vehicle both before and after us-
ing
remote controlled parking.
— There is a risk of asphyxiation. Never allow
the engine to run in confined spaces. After
remote controlled parking, make sure the
engine is off.
— Malfunctions when using the myAudi app in-
crease the risk of an accident. Do not exit
the app during the parking process, and
make sure that it does not go into the device
background, for example by accepting an in-
coming call. Observe the operating instruc-
tions from the manufacturer of your mobile
device.
— There is a risk of accident if the connection is
interrupted. In certain situations, the con-
nection between the mobile device and the
vehicle can be interrupted, for example from
other radio devices or when the distance to

cannot be guaranteed for all types of mobile de-
vices. The availability depends on the following
factors, among others:
— Brand and build version of the mobile device
— Version of the mobile device operating system
— Software version of the app used
— Individual settings on the mobile device

ZA\ WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 150.
— There is a risk of an accident if an incompati-
ble mobile device is used. If there is a dis-

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.

Parking and maneuvering

Preparing the vehicle
> To enable the selected parking space (2) for re-
mote controlled parking, press E @ on the up-
per display.
> If you have already approached a parking space
in the vehicle, remote controlled parking can be
activated to continue with the rest of the park-
ing process. To enable remote controlled park-
ing, press [J in the upper display.
> Exit the vehicle while the engine is running and
take the vehicle key with you. Always keep both
the vehicle key and the mobile device with you
during the entire remote controlled parking
process.
> Make sure that all doors and the luggage com-
partment lid are closed.
Starting the parking process
> Start the myAudi app soon, or the function will
be canceled.
> Pay attention to the path of the vehicle. If the
traffic situation permits, park your vehicle in
the parking space using the mobile device
> JX. The vehicle key and the mobile device
cannot be more than approximately 20 feet
(6 m) away from the vehicle.
> Pay attention to the path of the vehicle. In un-
clear situations, pause the parking process us-
ing
the mobile device. For example, this may be
necessary if an obstacle appears or the vehicle
comes very close to an obstacle.
> To resume the parking process, start it again on
the mobile device. The rest of the parking proc-
ess will be recalculated based on the vehicle po-
sition.
End of the parking process
If an obstacle appears, stop the parking process
=> page 206.
The parking process will end automatically once
the vehicle has reached the end point in the park-
ing space. Once parking is successfully complet-
ed, the parking lock will be engaged, the parking
brake will be set, and the engine will switch off.
The vehicle will also be locked.

ZA WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 150.
— Failing to pay careful attention to the vehi-
cle's surroundings increases the risk of an
accident. Park your vehicle with the mobile
device only if you are sure that no obstacle is
in the vehicle's path or under the vehicle,
and that no obstacles will move into the ve-
hicle's path.
@ Tips
— If the parking space is located in a garage, it
must be detected correctly by the vehicle.
When the parking space is detected com-
pletely, the edges of the space will be high-
lighted @).
— The parking process can only be started if
the vehicle key is located outside the vehicle
after the vehicle is prepared. Always keep
both the vehicle key and the mobile device
with you during the entire remote control-
led parking process.
— Remote controlled parking may be restrict-
ed or unavailable in situations such as the
following:
—If the ESC is restricted or switched off, or
if there is a malfunction.
—If there is another vehicle key inside the
vehicle or nearby.
— The system can incorrectly interpret parking
space barriers (such as parking curbs). Take
over the parking process > page 206 if the
vehicle is not completely inside the parking
space or if the vehicle tries to drive over the
parking space barrier.
