Audi pre sense
Introduction
Applies to: ve hicles w ith Audi p re se nse
W ith in the limits of the system, the pre sense
functions can in it iate measures in particularly
dangerous s ituat ions to protect the ve hicle pas ­
sengers and ot her r oad users.
- Due to the interl ink ing of various vehicle sys­
tems , crit ica l dr iv ing s ituat ions can be detected
by
pr e s ense basic and measu res fo r preventa­
t ive occ upan t protect ion are can be initiated.
- T he
pre sen se front system uses the data from
t h e adapt ive cr uise control* radar sensors and
t h e camera to calc ulate the probab ility of a col ­
lision . Within the limits of the system, an im ­
pending collision with vehicles can be detected
in both urban and rural speed ranges. In this
case, the system warns the driver visually,
acoustically and with a jerk on the brakes if nec­
essary . If needed, it can initiate a partial or fu ll
deceleration to reduce the collision speed or to
avo id the co llision unde r ce rtain c ircumstances .
In conjunct ion with p re sense basi c/rear, the
front safety belts are also revers ibly tensioned
whe n needed. The pre sense front is also act ive
when adaptive cruise control* is switched o ff.
- Pr e se nse rear con tains pre sense basic func ­
tions. It uses the data from the side assist* ra­
dar sensors and calc ulates within the limits of
the system the probability of a rear end colli ­
sion with the vehicle behind you . Pre sense rear
is also active when s ide assist* is switched off .

-Within the limits of the system, pre sen se cit y
uses the camera data and can detect an im ­
pending collision with vehicles and pedestrians .
In this case, the system warns the driver visual­ ly, acoustical ly and w it h a jerk on the brakes if
necessary . If needed, it ca n initiate a full dece l­
erat ion to reduce t he coll is ion speed or to avoid
the collision under certa in circumstances . In
conjunction with p re sense basi c/rear, the front
safety belts are a lso reve rsibly te nsioned whe n
needed.

(D Tips
- C erta in p re sense funct io ns sw itch off when
driving in reve rse.
- Th e pre sense f unct io ns m ay no t be ava ila ­
ble i f th ere is a ma lfunct ion in the ESC sys ­
tem or t he airbag control module .
-Note that the reve rsib le belt tens ione r o n
the front passenger 's side deactivates when
the front passenger's airbag is deactivated.
- Switch the pre sense off when yo u are not
using public streets or when loading the ve ­
hicle onto a vehicle carrier, train, ship or
other type of transportat ion. This can pre­
vent an undesired intervention from the pre
sense system.
Audi pre sense basic
App lies to: vehicles wit h Audi pre sense basic
The pre se nse bas ic functions are activated at a
speed of approx imately 20 mp h (30 km/h) o r
highe r.
The following functions ca n be triggered u nder
certain co nd it io ns w it hi n the lim its of the sys­
tem:
- Tensioning of the safety belts (for examp le,
during heavy brak ing) : the front safety belts
have reversible belt te nsioners . If a collision
does not occur , the safety belts loosen slig htly
and are ready to tr igger aga in.
