Assistance systems Electronic speed limiter
Applies to: vehicles with electronic speed lim iter
Your vehicle may be factory equipped with tires
that are rated for a maximum speed of 130 mph
(210 km/h). This is less than the maximum speed
of your vehicle. To reduce the risk of sudden tire
failure and loss of control if the vehicle is operatÂ
ed at excessive speeds, your vehicle also has an
electronic speed lim iter . The electronic speed
limiter prevents your vehicle from going faster
than the tir e speed rating. For more information
¢page 335.
If the engine control unit receives faulty vehicle
road speed s ignals, the Malfunction Indicator
L amp (MIL)
II! will illuminate . If this occurs,
contact the nearest authorized Audi dealer for
assistance .
& WARNING
Always observe the posted speed limits and
adjust your speed to suit prevailing road, trafÂ
fic and weather conditions. Never drive your
vehicle faster than the max imum speed rat ing
of the tires installed.
Speed warning system
Applies to: vehicles with speed warning system
The speed warning system helps you to stay beÂ
low a specified maximum speed that can be set,
changed or deleted in the Infotainment system .
The speed warning system warns you if you are
exceeding the maximum speed that you have set.
A warning tone will sound as soon as your speed
exceeds the stored value slightly . The
101 (USA
models) /
[01 (Canada mode ls) indicator light
and the corresponding message appear in the in Â
strument cluster display at the same time. The
[OJ (USA models)/ (•j (Canada models) indicato r
light and the message turn
off when the vehicle
speed drops below the stored maximum speed.
Setting a threshold is recommended if you would
like to be reminded when you reach a certain
maximum speed. Situations where you may want
to do so include driving in a country with a gener-
Assistance systems
al speed limit or if there is a specified maximum
speed for winter tires.

Audi adaptive cruise
control
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi adaptive cruise control
Fig. 128 Detect ion range
> (0 (0
The adaptive cru ise control system is a comb inaÂ
tion of speed and dis tance regu lation.
It ass ists
the d river by both regulating the speed and
maintaining a distance to the vehicle driving
ahead, within the limits of the system. If the sysÂ
tem detects a vehicle driving ahead, the adaptive
cruise contro l can brake and accelerate your vehiÂ
cle. Th is increases driving comfort during long
trips on highways and in stop-and-go traffic.
What can adaptive cruise control do?
The adaptive cruise control system uses radar.
The radar is sub ject to designated system lim its
q poge 127.
On open roads with no traffic, it functions like a
cruise contro l system. The stored speed is mainÂ
tained. When approaching a vehicle ahead and
the system detects it, the adapt ive cru ise control
system automatically brakes to match that obÂ
ject's speed and then maintains the stored disÂ
tance. As soon as the system does not detect a
vehicle driving ahead, adaptive cruise contro l acÂ
celerates up to the stored speed.
Within the limits of the system, adaptive cruise control can brake in stop-and-go traffic until the
vehicle is stat ionary and then begin driving agai n
under certain
conditions ~ page 130, Driving in
stop-and-go traffic.

Assistance systems
-Due to the interlinking of various vehicle sysÂ
tems, critica l driving situations can be detected
by
pre sense basic and measures for preventaÂ
tive occupant protection are can be initiated.
-The pre sense front uses the data from the raÂ
dar sensors and calcu lates the probability of an
accident
c> page 127. An impending collision
with vehicles can be detected within the limits
of the system . In this case, the system warns
the driver visually, acoustically and with a jerk
on the brakes if necessary. If needed, it can i niÂ
tiate a partia l or full dece le rat ion to reduce the
collision speed o r to avoid the coll ision unde r
