Parking aid 172garage ⇒fig. 187. Select “parking mode 2” if you wish to park
parallel to the roadside ⇒fig. 188.Applies to vehicles: with Audi parking system advancedDescriptionThe reversing camera covers approximately the area depicted in
⇒fig. 189 and ⇒fig. 190 . This is the area you will see in the
picture on the MMI display. Orientation lines and colour markings
are projected onto the picture to help you when parking or mano-
evring in tight spaces. Objects out of range of the camera in area
do not appear in the picture on the MMI display.
Applies to vehicles: with Audi parking system advancedGeneral notesWe recommend that you practise parking with the reversing camera
in a quiet location (car park or similar) in order to become familiar
with the system, including the orientation lines and all the other
features. Ideally, the weather and light conditions should be good.
Vehicles or other objects shown in the MMI display appear to be
further away or closer, if:•
you are reversing from a horizontal surface up a gradient or
down a hill,
•
you are reversing towards protruding objects,
•
the vehicle has been loaded with a greater load on the rear.
The accuracy of the orientation lines and the blue area markings
decreases if:
•
the reversing camera does not provide a reliable image, e.g. if
visibility is poor or the lens is dirty,
•
the sun is so dazzling that you cannot see the image on the
display screen.
How to clean the lens of the reversing camera
The reversing camera is located above the rear number plate. To
ensure that the parking aid works properly, the lens ⇒fig. 191 must
be kept clean.

⇒. indicates the rear bumper. You should stop
reversing, at the latest, when the red orientation line
is bordering on an object ⇒!
– Align your vehicle according to the blue area marking
⇒fig. 193. The blue marking is an extension of the
vehicle outline and reaches about five metres to the rear
of the vehicle. The shade of blue changes at a distance of
approx. 1m, 2m and 5m to the vehicle.
WARNING
•
The reversing camera does not show the complete area behind
the vehicle. It is particularly important to ensure that there are no
small children or animals near the vehicle, as the reversing camera
may not always be able to detect them (accident risk).
•
Please note that objects which are not touching the ground
may appear to be further away than they actually are (e.g. the
bumper of a parked vehicle, a towing bracket or the rear end of a
truck). In this case you should not use the orientation lines as a
guide when parking the car - accident risk!Caution
The MMI display shows the path of the rear end of the vehicle if you
were to reverse using the current steering angle. NB: The front end
of the vehicle swings out further than the rear. Please make sure you
keep a sufficient distance between the vehicle and any obstacles to
make sure that the exterior mirror or edge of the vehicle do not
collide with the obstacle (accident risk).
Applies to vehicles: with Audi parking system advancedParking parallel to the roadside
Parking mode 2 can be used when parking your vehicle at
the roadside.The following steps apply only when there are no obstacles
(such as a wall) next to the parking space. Otherwise, please
follow the “Instructions for parking next to obstacles”.
– Position your vehicle parallel to the roadside, about a
metre away from the next parked vehicle.
– Engage reverse gear. The parking aid will be switched on
and parking mode 1 will be displayed.

– Press the control button for Mode ⇒fig. 194 on the
MMI control console. Parking mode 2 is displayed.
– Reverse and align your vehicle in such a way that the blue
area marking borders onto the vehicle behind or onto
the parking space line marking. The blue marking is an
extension of the vehicle outline and reaches about five
metres to the rear of the vehicle. The long side of the blue
marking should border onto the kerb. The complete blue
area marking must fit into the parking space.
– When the vehicle is stationary turn the steering wheel to
the left as far as it will go.
– Reverse into the parking space.
– Stop the vehicle as soon as the blue curve touches the
kerb ⇒page 175, fig. 195.
– When the vehicle is stationary turn the steering wheel to
the right as far as it will go.
– Continue to reverse into the parking space until the
vehicle is standing parallel to the kerb. indicates the
rear bumper. You should stop reversing, at the latest,
when the red orientation line is bordering on an
object ⇒! Keep a close watch on the front of your
vehicle ⇒.Parking next to obstacles
If an obstacle (such as a wall) is located next to the parking space,
the clearance at the side of the vehicle must be larger. Position the
long side of the blue marking so that there is sufficient clearance
from the kerb. The marking must not touch the kerb. You must also
start turning the steering wheel much earlier. The blue curve
⇒page 175, fig. 195 must not touch the kerb - make sure there is
sufficient clearance from the kerb.
