are indicated, at the latest, by the time they en
ter your "blind spot".
© Vehicles you are passing
If you slowly pass a vehicle that side assist has
detected (the difference in speed between the
veh icle and your vehicle is less than approximate
ly 9 mph (15 km/h)), the display in the exterior
mirror turns on as soon as the vehicle enters your
blind spot.
The display will not turn on if you quickly pass a
vehicle that side assist has detected (the differ
ence in speed is greater than approximately 9 mph (15 km/h)).
Functional limitations
The radar sensors are designed to detect the left
and right adjacent lanes when the road lanes are
the normal width. In some situations, the display
in the exterior mirror may turn on even though
there is no vehicle located in the area that is criti
cal for a lane change. For example:
- If the lanes are narrow or if your 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 through a curve. Side assist
may react to a vehicle that is in the same lane
or one lane over from the adjacent lane.
- If side assist reacts to other objects (such as
roadside structures like guard rails).
- In poor weather conditions . The side assist
functions are limited.
Do not cover the radar sensors ¢
fig. 112 with
stickers, deposits, bicycle racks or other objects,
because this will impair their function. Do not
use side assist when towing a trailer. For infor
mation on cleaning, refer to¢
page 33 7.
A WARNING
- Always pay attention to traffic and to the
area around your vehicle. Side assist cannot
replace a driver's attention. The driver alone
is a lways responsible for lane changes and
similar driving maneuvers.
Assist
-In some situations, the system may not
function or its function may be limited. For
example:
- If vehicles are approaching or being left
behind very quickly. The display may not
turn on in time.
- In poor weather conditions such as heavy
rain, snow or heavy m ist.
- On very wide lanes, in tight curves, or if
there is a rise in the road surface. Vehicles
in the adjacent lane may not be detected
because they are outside of the sensor
range.
(D Note
The sensors can be displaced by impacts or
damage to the bumper, wheel housing and
underbody. This can adversely affect the sys
tem. Have an authorized Audi dealer or au
thorized Audi Service Facility check their func
tion.
(D Tips
If the window glass in the driver's door or
front passenger's door has been tinted, the
display in the exterior mirror may be incor
rect.

Depending on your vehicle's equipment , various
parking aids will help you when parking and ma
neuvering.
The
rear parking system is an audible parking aid
that warns you of obstacles
behind the vehicle

functions are also available
¢page 125.
The peripheral cameras give various views to
help you when parking or maneuvering
¢ page 128 . fhe parking system plus functions
are also available
¢ page 125.
A WARNING
- Always look for traffic and check the area
around your vehicle by looking at it directly
as well. The parking system cannot replace
the driver 's attention. The driver is always
responsible when entering or leaving a park
ing space and during similar maneuvers.
- Please note that some surfaces, such as
clothing, are not detected by the system.
-
- Sensors and cameras have blind spots in
which people and objects cannot be detect ed . Be especially cautious of small children
and animals .
- Always keep your eyes on the vehicle's sur
roundings, using the rearview mirror as
well .
- The sensors can be displaced by impacts or
damage to the radiator grille, bumper,
wheel housing and the underbody . The park
ing system may be impaired as a result.
Have an authorized Audi dealer or author-
124
ized Audi Service Facility check their func
tion .
(D Note
-Some objects are not detected or displayed
by the system under certain circumstances:
- Objects such as barrier chains, trailer draw
bars, vertical poles or fences
- Objects above the sensors such as wall ex
tensions
- Objects with certain surfaces or structures
such as chain link fences or powder snow
- If you continue driving closer to a low ob
ject, it may disappear from the sensor range. Note that you will no longer be
warned about th is obstacle .
- Keep enough distance from the curb to
avoid damage to the rims.
(D Tips
-The system may provide a warning even
though there are no obstacles in the cover
age area in some situations, such as :
- certain road surfaces or when there is tall
grass.
- external ultrasonic sources such as from
cleaning vehicles .
- in heavy rain, snow, or thick vehicle ex
haust.
- We recommend that you practice parking in
a traffic-free location or parking lot to be
come familiar with the system . When doing
this, there should be good light and weath
er conditions.
- You can change the volume of the signals
and the display ¢
page 131.
-Please refer to the instructions for trailer
towing in

Rear parking system
Description
Applies to: vehicles with rear parking system
The rear parking system is an audible parking
aid .
Descr iption
There is a sensor in the rear bumper cover. If
these detect an obstacle, audible signals warn
you .
Make sure the sensors are not covered by stick
ers, deposits or any other obstructions as it may
impair the function of the system . For informa
tion on cleaning, refer to
c:> page 337.
The range at which the sensors begin to measure
is approximately:
side 3 ft (0 .90 m)
rear
center 5.2
ft (1.60 m)
The closer you get to the obstacle, the shorter
the interval between the audible signals . A con
tinuous tone sounds when the obstacle is less
than approximately 1 foot (0.30 meters) away.
Do not continue backing up
c:::> &. in General infor
mation on page 124,

If the distance to an obstacle remains constant,
the volume of the distance warning lowers down
to mute after a few seconds (this does not apply
in the continuous tone range). If the obstacle
comes closer before the system mutes, the tone
sounds again. If the obstacle moves farther away
before the system mutes, a tone will not sound.
Pay attention to the vehicle's surround ings when
you start to drive.
Activating
The rear parking assist activates automatically
when the reverse gear is engaged. You will hear a
