Driver assistance


switched on. The driver is always responsible
for assessing the traffic situation.
@ Tips
— The traffic signs on the road always take pri-
ority over the display. The driver is always
responsible for adhering to the regulations
applicable in the country where the vehicle
is being operated.
— 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.

Audi adaptive cruise
control
General information
Applies to: vehicles with Audi adaptive cruise control
Depending on vehicle equipment, Audi adaptive
cruise control may consist of the following func-
tions:
Within the limits of the system, the adaptive
speed and distance control assists the driver in
controlling the speed and the set distance to the
vehicle driving ahead. If the system detects a ve-
hicle driving ahead, the adaptive cruise control
can brake and accelerate your vehicle within the
limits of the system. On open roads with no traf-
fic, it functions like a cruise control system. The
stored speed is maintained. When approaching a
vehicle driving ahead, the adaptive cruise control
system automatically brakes to match that vehi-
cle's speed and then maintains the set distance
as much as possible. As soon as the system does
not detect a vehicle driving ahead, adaptive
cruise control accelerates up to the stored speed.
In stop-and-go traffic, the vehicle may brake to a
full stop and then may also start driving again
automatically under certain conditions.
Applies to: vehicles with traffic jam assist: In
traffic jams or in stop-and-go traffic, the traffic
130
jam assist can assist the driver to stay within the
lane detected by the system > page 138.
Applies to: vehicles with efficiency assist: Predic-
tive control can adjust the set speed based on
traffic and road conditions > page 133.

Z\ WARNING
Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 117.
@) Tips
The system complies with United States FCC
regulations and ISED regulations > page 284.

Applies to: vehicles with Audi adaptive cruise control



Fig. 106 Example: driving into a curve
In some situations, the adaptive cruise control
function is limited and you must assume control
of the vehicle when necessary, for example by ap-
plying the brakes.
— When driving into a curve > fig. 106 and out of
a curve, the system may react to a vehicle in the
neighboring lane and apply the brakes. You can
override the system by pressing the accelerator
pedal briefly.
— The system works with the various sensors and
cameras in the vehicle. Vehicles can only be de-
tected once they are within the area and range
covered by the sensors > page 118, fig. 99.
— When driving around tight curves, a vehicle
driving ahead that was previously detected may
no longer be detected, and the system may ac-
celerate unexpectedly.

Driver assistance

Requirement: adaptive cruise control must be
switched on.
Overriding control
You can completely override the control, for ex-
ample when passing or if you would like to accel-
erate more quickly.
> To accelerate manually, pull the lever toward
you in the direction of the arrow and hold it
there, or press the accelerator pedal.
> To resume the usual cruise control, release the
lever or remove your foot from the accelerator
pedal.
When you are in the Driver assistance display,
the message Overridden will appear.
Decreasing the distance
The function decreases the set distance and pro-
vides assistance, for example when merging
when a lane is ending.
> To further reduce the distance to the vehicle
ahead temporarily, pull the lever toward your-
self in the direction of the arrow and hold it in
that position.
> To resume the system control, release the lever.
The adaptive cruise control reduces the distance
and, if necessary, accelerates the vehicle above
the set speed. When you are in the Driver assis-
tance display, the message Overridden will ap-
pear.

ZX WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 117.
— Resting your foot on the accelerator pedal
could override the cruise control. Braking in-
terventions and corrective actions by the
system may not occur.
