Messages
If and a message with Predictive control is
displayed when there is a malfunction, the effi-
ciency assist functions are unavailable or limited.
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 143 and try to turn on the sys-
tems again later.
If the malfunction remains, drive to an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty immediately to have the malfunction correct-
ed.

ZA WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 141.
— Pay attention to traffic and the area around
your vehicle when predictive control is
switched on. The driver is always responsible
for assessing the traffic situation.
— The system does not consider “right of way”
rules and does not respond to traffic lights,
so lack of driver attention in these situations
can increase the risk of an accident.
— The speed when driving through curves may
be different from what you as a driver would
do or may not be suitable for the weather
and road conditions. If necessary, apply the
brakes and reduce the selected speed to be
maintained in the Adjustment to curves
along route setting to reduce the risk of an
accident.

@ Tips
— Predictive control can exceed or drop below
the maximum permitted speed. The driver
is responsible for adhering to the permitted
speed limit.
— The traffic signs on the road always take pri-
ority over the display. The driver is always
responsible for adhering to the regulations

D_ In certain countries
158
applicable in the country where the vehicle
is being operated.
— Ifa speed limit is detected, the marking @
= page 155 of the set speed limit will be ad-
justed even if Audi adaptive cruise control is
not actively regulating.
— Control by the system depends on which
adaptive cruise control driving program is
set or on the selected Audi drive select*
mode.
— After switching on the ignition and first
driving onto a freeway or similar road with-
out a speed limit, the system will regulate
the speed to 80 mph (130 km/h). Then
the system adjusts to the last speed set by
the driver.
— There is no adaptation to speed limits when
driving through highway interchanges and
when driving on or off the expressway.
— The system can fail to provide control or the
control may be faulty if the values from the
camera-based traffic sign recognition* are
incorrect or the navigation system map data
is outdated.
— When route guidance is switched on, the
system adapts to the route provided by the
navigation system. Driving without route
guidance or leaving a route can result in
faulty control.
Setting the distance

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 @) or ().
The newly-set distance will be shown briefly, for
example with the [eg indicator light. In the Driv-
er assistance display, a graphic display is shown
instead of the indicator lights > page 155,
fig. 119. The display matches the functions of
the indicator lights.
When approaching a vehicle driving ahead, the
adaptive cruise control system brakes to match
that vehicle's speed and then adjusts to the set
distance. If the vehicle driving ahead accelerates,
then the adaptive cruise control will accelerate
up to the speed that you have set.
The following distances can be set:

Meaning

The time between is approximately 1
second. This setting corresponds toa
distance of approximately 92 ft
(100 m) when traveling at 62 mph
(28 m/h).
The time between is approximately 1.3
seconds. This setting corresponds toa
distance of approximately 118 ft
(100 m) when traveling at 62 mph
(36 m/h).
nD
The time between is approximately 1.8
seconds. This setting meets the general
recommendation of “half the speed
shown on the speedometer”. This cor-
responds to a distance of approximate-
ly 164 feet (SO m) when traveling at
62 mph (100 km/h).
(i) Tips
— When setting the distance, the driver is re-
sponsible for adhering to any applicable le-
gal regulations.
— Depending on the selected driving program
and distance, driving behavior when acceler-
ating may vary from moderate to sporty
=> page 161, Adjusting adaptive cruise con-
trol.
— The distances provided are specified values.
Depending on the driving situation and how
the vehicle ahead is driving, the actual dis-
tance may be more or less than these target
distances.

Driver assistance

Requirement: adaptive cruise control must be
switched on.
Overriding control
You can completely override the control, for ex-
ample when passing or if you would like to accel-
erate more quickly.
> To accelerate manually, pull the lever toward
you in the direction of the arrow and hold it
there, or press the accelerator pedal.
> To resume the usual cruise control, release the
lever or remove your foot from the accelerator
pedal.
When you are in the Driver assistance display,
the message Overridden will appear.
Decreasing the distance
The function decreases the set distance and pro-
vides assistance, for example when merging
when a lane is ending.
> To further reduce the distance to the vehicle
ahead temporarily, pull the lever toward your-
self in the direction of the arrow and hold it in
that position.
> To resume the system control, release the lever.
The adaptive cruise control reduces the distance
and, if necessary, accelerates the vehicle above
the set speed.

ZA WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras © page 141.
— Resting your foot on the accelerator pedal
could override the cruise control. Braking in-
terventions and corrective actions by the
system may not occur.

Traffic jam assist supports the driver when driv-
ing in traffic jams or in heavy traffic.
In a speed range under 40 mph (65 km/h), the
system can help to keep the vehicle within a lane
calculated by the system. Within the limits of the
system, the system controls the steering auto-
matically when adaptive cruise control is switch-
ed on. Since traffic jam assist is only an assist
system, the driver must always keep his or her
hands on the steering wheel and be ready to
steer. The driver can override the control at any
time by actively steering.
The system is designed for driving on express-
ways and highways.
Requirements for using traffic jam assist:
> The traffic jam assist is preselected in the MMI
settings: Select on the home screen: VEHICLE >
Driver assistance > Traffic jam assist.
> Adaptive cruise control must be switched on
and active > page 156.
If you open the Driver assist display in the on-
board computer = page 17, the indicator
light and the message Traffic jam assist will turn
on when a traffic jam is detected.
Activating or deactivating traffic jam assist
> To activate or deactivate traffic jam assist,
press the > fig. 126 button.
Always switch off traffic jam assist in the
following situations:
— When increased attention is needed from the
driver
— In construction zones
— In city driving
— On stretches of road with curves
—In unclear traffic situations such as at intersec-
tions or toll stations
— The turn signal was activated.

PNU Ce ema ial
Applies to: vehicles with Audi pre sense city

Within the limits of the system, Audi pre sense
city can warn about an impending front end colli-

The system uses the camera behind the wind-
shield and is available at speeds above approxi-
mately 6 mph (10 km/h).

Prewarning
To warn about detected dangers, Audi pre
sense © / {@) will appear in the instrument clus-
ter and an audio signal will sound.
A brief application of the brakes
If a collision is imminent, there may be an acute
warning using a brief application of the brakes.
You
will also be warned about the danger by an
indicator in the instrument cluster display. You
may only be able to avoid a collision by swerving
or braking strongly.
Automatic braking force increase
If there is an impending collision and you are not
applying the brakes enough, the braking force
may be increased, depending on the situation.
Automatic braking
If you do not react to the acute warning, the sys-
tem may apply the brakes with strong braking
force within the limits of the system in order to
reduce the speed of impact in the event of a colli-
sion.
