Driving information

— If traffic signs do not conform to the standard
format
— If traffic signs are damaged or bent
— If traffic signs are displayed on sign holders
with electronic signs
— If the traffic signs or the roadways have
changed, and the navigation data is no longer
up-to-date

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and respect
the limits of the assist systems, sensors,
and cameras > page 114.
— Under some circumstances, traffic sign rec-
ognition may not detect traffic signs correct-
ly or detect them at all. As a result, the sys-
tem may not display the correct speed limit
or any speed limit.

@ Tips
— Traffic sign recognition does not adapt your
vehicle's speed to match the speed Limit.
— The display in the instrument cluster is
based on the units of measurement used for
speed in the country where the vehicle is be-
ing operated. As a result, a display of 50 in
the instrument cluster can mean either mph
or km/h, depending on the country.
Applies to: vehicles with camera-based traffic sign recognition

Driving information

Traffic light information
Applies to: vehicles with traffic light information

Fig. 109 Instrument cluster: traffic light information dis-
play
The traffic light information gives you a speed
recommendation in order to reach the next traffic
light when it is green @, or it informs you of the
wait time at the next red light 2). Once traffic
light data is received, the traffic light information
will be displayed in the instrument cluster and in
the head-up display*. If the vehicle is in an area
with traffic light information but cannot receive a
traffic light signal, then a gray traffic light sym-
bol will be displayed @).
General information
The traffic light information is subject to system
limitations and may be unavailable or only parti-
ally available in the following situations:
—If the permitted speed limit is exceeded
— If driving below a certain speed limit
—If the next traffic light is less than approxi-
mately 100 feet (30 m) away
— Ifthe estimated wait time at a red light is less
than four seconds
—If there is no traffic light data available
— If emergency response vehicles or public transit
systems are active
— If traffic lights are in construction zones or be-
ing serviced
— If there are warnings from the camera-based
traffic sign recognition*
— If the camera-based traffic sign recognition” is
malfunctioning or not available
— If the data connection has been interrupted
120
— If data transmission is deactivated in the priva-
cy settings
— If the subscription has expired
If this is the case, the menu item will be grayed-
out or it will not be possible to select it.

ZA\ WARNING
— When traffic light information is shown, al-
so always pay attention to the traffic situa-
tion, the distance to other vehicles, and the
area around the vehicle. The driver is always
responsible for assessing the traffic situa-
tion.
— Always adapt your speed to the current
weather, road and traffic conditions. The dis-
played information must never cause you to
ignore legal traffic regulations and pose a
safety risk.
— Regardless of the traffic light information,
you should always monitor your speed using
the speedometer and make sure you are ad-
hering to the legal speed limit.
— The traffic light information does not adjust
your vehicle's speed to the speed recom-
mendation shown in the display.
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 114.

(i) Tips
— Traffic light information was only available
in select cities at the time this manual was
printed.
— Traffic light information is not available na-
tionwide.
— The functions depend on the navigation da-
ta* being up-to-date and correct identifica-
tion by the traffic sign recognition*.
— Incorrect values from the camera-based
traffic sign recognition* or outdated naviga-
tion system* map data can result in missing
or incorrect display images.
— Certain traffic lights can automatically ad-
just to the current traffic situation. If this
occurs, the display of traffic light informa-
tion can change suddenly.

Driver assistance

— When a route is planned using the naviga-
tion system*, then system displays messag-
es based on an assumed route. Without
route guidance, the system displays mes-
sages based on an assumed route.
— The wording of the message may vary de-
pending on the selected Audi drive select*
mode and the selected gear. No messages
are displayed when in the "S" driving pro-
gram.
Predictive control
Applies to: vehicles with Audi adaptive cruise control and effi-
ciency assist
With predictive control, efficiency assist adapts
the set speed in adaptive cruise control @
=> page 128 based on detected speed limits and
the upcoming route. Once the system no longer
detects any incidents ahead, adaptive cruise con-
trol will accelerate back up to the last speed that
the driver set. After switching on the ignition, the
availability of predictive control is indicated by a
message when the adaptive cruise control is first
activated.
The displays depend on the vehicle equipment.
Requirements
— Adaptive cruise control is actively regulating
=> page 129.
— The system can only react to speed limits that
are 15 mph (20 km/h)2) or higher.
Overriding control
The driver can override the predictive control to
the route ahead at any time by pressing the ac-
celerator or brake pedal. If the system changes
the vehicle speed to adapt to speed limits, you
can change the speed using the lever
=> page 129, fig. 116.
Setting predictive control
You can switch off predictive control functions or
adjust them individually. The settings depend on
the vehicle equipment.

D_ This is not available in some countries.
2) Analog instrument cluster: 20 mph (30 km/h)
126
Applies to: MMI: Select on the home screen: VE-
HICLE > Driver assistance > Audi adaptive cruise
control > Predictive control.
Possible settings:
Set speed limit - Adjusts to speed limits. You can
also set With tolerance if desired. In this scenar-
io, you may fall below or exceed the set speed in
favor of increased efficiency.
Adjustment to curves along route - Regulates
based on the route ahead, for example by con-
trolling the speed at which the vehicle drives
through curves.
Messages
Ife and a message with Predictive control is
displayed when there is a malfunction, the effi-
ciency assist functions are unavailable or limited.
A message that indicates the cause and possible
solution may appear with some displays. The
weather conditions may be too poor or a sensor
may be covered. Clean the area in front of the
sensors > page 116 and try to turn on the sys-
tems again later.
If the malfunction remains, drive to an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty immediately to have the malfunction correct-
ed.

ZX WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 114.
— Pay attention to traffic and the area around
your vehicle when predictive control is
switched on. The driver is always responsible
for assessing the traffic situation.
— The system does not consider “right of way”
rules and does not respond to traffic lights,
so lack of driver attention in these situations
can increase the risk of an accident.
— The speed when driving through curves may
be different from what you as a driver would
do or may not be suitable for the weather

Driver assistance

— If you switch the ignition or the adaptive
cruise control system off, the set speed is
erased for safety reasons.
— When adaptive cruise control is switched
on, the ESC and ASR automatically switch
on.
— The system cannot be switched off or it may
be interrupted if the road exceeds the maxi-
mum possible grade for safe operation.
Setting the distance
Applies to: vehicles with Audi adaptive cruise control

B4M-0234


Fig. 117 Operating lever: setting the distance
If you adjust the speed, you must also change the
time gap to the vehicle driving ahead. The higher
the speed, the greater the distance that is need-
ed.
> Tap the rocker switch to display the distance
that is currently set.
> To increase or decrease the distance in incre-
ments, tap the switch again toward @) or G).
The newly-set distance will be shown briefly, for
example with the indicator light. In the Driv-
er assistance display, a graphic display is shown
instead of the indicator lights > page 128,
fig. 114. The display matches the functions of
the indicator lights.
When approaching a vehicle driving ahead, the
adaptive cruise control system brakes to match
that vehicle's speed and then adjusts to the set
distance. If the vehicle driving ahead accelerates,
then the adaptive cruise control will accelerate
up to the speed that you have set.
The following distances can be set:

Meaning

The time between is approximately 1
eee second. This setting corresponds toa
= distance of approximately 92 feet (28
m) when traveling at 62 mph (100
km/h).
The time between is approximately 1.3
seconds. This setting corresponds toa
distance of approximately 118 feet (36
m) when traveling at 62 mph (100
km/h).
The time between is approximately 1.8
seconds. This setting meets the general
recommendation of “half the speed
shown on the speedometer”. This cor-
responds to a distance of approximate-
ly 164 feet (SO m) when traveling at
62 mph (100 km/h).
The time between is approximately 2.4
seconds. This setting corresponds to a
distance of approximately 219 feet
(67 m) when traveling at 62 mph (100
km/h).
The time between is approximately 3.6
seconds. This setting corresponds toa
distance of approximately 328 feet
(100 m) when traveling at 62 mph (100

Driver assistance

Steering intervention request
If no steering activity is detected or the steering
power from the system is not sufficient, the driv-
er steering intervention request will alert the
driver using audio and visual signals. Take over
the steering and keep your hands on the steering
wheel so that you will be ready to steer at any
time. The system may no longer be ready to pro-
vide warnings after a short time, and it will only
become active again later.
If the driver takes over steering, active lane assist
will be switched off.
Behavior when a turn signal is active
Applies to: vehicles with side assist: The system
will not warn you if you activate a turn signal be-
fore crossing the lane marker line. In this case, it
assumes that you are changing lanes intentional-
ly.
Applies to: vehicles with side assist: If the side
assist system classifies a lane change as critical
due to other vehicles traveling with your vehicle
or approaching your vehicle when your turn sig-
nal is activated, there will be a noticeable steer-
ing correction shortly before your vehicle leaves
the lane. This will attempt to keep your vehicle in
the lane.

ZX WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 114.
— The system warns the driver that the vehicle
is leaving the lane using corrective steering.
The driver is always responsible for keeping
the vehicle within the lane.
— Corrective steering may not occur at all in
certain situations, such as during heavy
braking. Always be ready to intervene.

G) Tips
— Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel so you can be ready to steer at any
time. The driver is always responsible for

when the detected object is in the “blind
spot”, at the latest.
@ You are slowly passing another vehicle. If the
difference in speed between the two vehicles
is less than 9 mph (15 km/h), the display in
the exterior mirror will turn on.
Information stage
If you do not activate a turn signal, the system
will inform you about objects classified as critical
by turning on the display in the respective exteri-
or mirror. The display remains dim in the infor-
mation stage so that you are not distracted while
looking forward.
Warning stage
Once you activate a turn signal, the system will
inform you about objects classified as critical by
turning on the display in the respective exterior
mirror.
Depending on vehicle equipment, the display
may also provide a warning when the turn signal
is not activated: if driver assist systems detect
that your vehicle is about to leave a lane, the dis-
play will blink to warn you about objects classi-
fied as critical. You can also be warned with cor-
rective steering > page 137, Audi active lane as-
sist.
System limitations
The system uses the data from the radar sensors
at the rear corners of the vehicle > page 116,
fig. 107. They are designed to detect the left and
right adjacent lanes when the road lanes are the
normal width. In some situations, the system
may react to vehicles in your own lane or lanes
that are not directly adjacent to yours, or to ob-
jects on the side of the road. In this case, the dis-
play will turn on even though there is no vehicle
in the critical area. These situations may include:
— Driving on the edge of your own lane
— Narrow lanes
— Curves
— High barriers on the side of the road

AN WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 114.
— The display may not appear on time when
vehicles are approaching or being passed
very quickly.
G) 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.


— For an explanation on conformity with the
FCC regulations in the United States and the

Brightness - Change the brightness only when
side assist is switched on, so that the selected
setting can be checked in the exterior mirror dis-
plays. Adjust the brightness to a level where the
display will not interfere with your view ahead.
Because the display brightness automatically
adapts to the ambient light, it may have already
been adjusted to the highest or lowest setting
during the automatic adaptation.
G) Tips
— If you switch side assist on or off, the exit
warning will also switch on or off.
