cal consumers are connected to a circuit
'
the charging power may be limited to 50%
when charging with a household socket in
order to relieve the load on the electrical in

mum charging power, the value must be set
to 100% .
- A selected value remains set until the power

Audi active lane assist
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi active lane assist
Active lane assist (lane departure warning) de

it appears likely that you w ill leave the lane, the
system will warn you with corrective steering.
You can overr ide this steer ing at any time. If you
pass over a line, the stee ring wheel will vib rate

-If the lanes are narrow or i f you are driving on
the edge of your lane. If this is the case, the
system may have detected a vehicle in another
lane that is
not adjacent to your current lane.
- If you are driving t hrough a curve. Side assist
may react to a vehicle that is one lane over
from the adjacent lane .
- If side assist reacts to other objects (such as
high or displaced guard rails).
- In poor weather conditions . The side assist
functions are limited.

A WARNING
-Always pay atte ntion to traffic and to the
area aro und your vehicle. Side assist cannot

- In poor weather conditions s uch as heavy
rain, snow or heavy mist.
- On very wide lanes, in tight curves, or i f
there is a rise in the road su rface. Vehicles
in the adjacent lane may not be detected
because they are outs ide of the sensor
