Parking System
Parking system
Applies to vehicles: with parking system
Different park assist systems may be used for
parking or maneuvering, depending on the vehi­
cle's features.
Parking system (rear)*:
For the parking system (rear), the acoustic park
assist system is installed in the rear of the vehicle
¢page 105.
The rear parking assist system uses ultrasonic
sensors to determine the distance of the vehicle
from a detected obstacle. There are a total of
four sensors located on the rear bumper (two in
the middle and two on the sides) .
Parking system (rear, with rear view
camera)*:
For the parking system (rear, with rear view cam­
era),
the rear acoustic park assist system is inte­
grated in the rear of the vehicle and the rear view
camera is integrated in the rear lid ¢page 108.
The parking system (rear, with rear view camera)
uses ultrasonic sensors to determine the distance
of the vehicle from a detected obstacle. There are
a total of four sensors located on the rear bump­
er (two in the middle and two on the sides).
A WARNING
-
Make sure the sensors are not covered by
stickers, deposits or any other obstructions as
it may impa ir the sensor function. For infor­
mation on cleaning, refer to
¢page 184.
Rear parking system
Rear acoustic park assist
Applies to vehicles: with parking system (rear)
The rear acoustic park assist warns you of obsta­
cles or objects behind your car.
Description
The rear acoustic parking assist system deter­
mines the distance o f the vehicle from an obsta-
Parking System
cle using ultrasonic sensors. There are 4 sensors
in the rear bumper.
T he range at wh ich the sensors start to measure
is
about:
To the side 2 ft (0.60 m)
Center rear 5.2
ft (1.60 m)
Activation
Acoustic parking assist is act ivated automatically
when
reverse gear is engaged. A brief tone con­
firms that the system is activated.
Warning tones
Distance warn ing is given by warning tones which
are generated by the rear signal generator. The
vo lume and the p itch of the warning tones can be
adjusted in the MMI*
¢page 106.
Reversing
Distance warning when reversing starts when an
obstacle is detected in the range of the parking
ass ist system . As the distance decreases, the
time interval between the audible tones becomes
shorter.
When the distance is less than 1ft (0.30 m), the
tone becomes cont inuous . At this point you
should stop backing up .
Please note that low objects already signalled by
a warning can d isappear from the system's detec­
tion range and will not continue to be signalled.
If the distance to an obstacle remains the same,
the volume of the distance warning is gradually
reduced after about 4 seconds (this does not ap­
ply in the continous tone range). Approaching an­
other obstacle will result in the distance warning
sounding at the normal volume again.
Malfunctions in the system
If a warning tone is audible for about five sec­
onds when you turn on the ignition, there is a
malfunction in the system. Have the problem cor­
rected by your author ized Audi dealer.
Keep the sensors in the rear bumper clean and
free from ice so that the acoustic park assist sys-
tem can function properly. .,,.

A WARNING
- The parking aid cannot replace the driver's
attention. The dr iver alone is responsib le for
parking and s imilar driving maneuvers.
- Always keep your eyes on the veh icle's sur­
roundings, us ing the rear view m irror as
well.
- Do not a llow yourself to be distracted from
traff ic by the rear view camera pictures.
- If the posit ion and the installation ang le of
the camera has changed, for example, after
a rear end collision, do not continue to use
the system for safety reasons. Have it
checked by a qualified dealership.
(D Note
- Low obstacles already signaled by a warning
can d isappear from the system's detection
range as they are approached and will not
continue to be signa led. Objects such as
barrier chains, tra iler draw bars, thin paint­
ed vertical po les or fences may not be de­
tected by the sys tem, posing risk of dam­
age.
- Never use warm or hot water to remove
snow or ice from the rear view camera lens -
danger of crack formation on the lens!
- When cleaning the lens, never use products
that are abrasive .
Switching on/off
A ppl ies to ve hicles: w ith pa rking system (rea r, w ith rea r view
c am era)
The rear view camera switches on automatically
together with the acoustic park assist when you
put the vehicle in reverse.
S w itch ing on
"' Put the vehicle in reverse gear, the acoustic
parking system w ith rear view camera is act ivat­
ed automat ically. Act ivat ion of the acoustic
108
parking system is confirmed by a brief acknow l­
edgement sound.
Switching off
"' Dr ive faste r than 9 mph ( 15 km/h), or
"' take the vehicle out of reverse gear. The acous­
tic parking system is immed iate ly deactivated,
and the rear view camera picture is deactivated
automatically after a period of about 15 sec­
onds, or
"' sw itch
off the ignition.
The delay in deactivating the camera provides an uninterrupted view behind the vehicle especia lly
when maneuvering in t ight parking spaces and
prevents the picture from turn ing
off the every
time you shift out of reverse .
If the warning message appears in the display
but not the rear v iew camera p icture, read and
confirm the warning message. The acoustic dis­
tance signal is always active.
If you press a function button on the MMI contro l
console, the rear view camera p icture disappears.
The rear v iew camera picture reappears the next
time you park.
Further information on the warning message and
the MMI contro l conso le can be found in the MMI
instruct ion booklet.
A WARNING
- On ly use the rearv iew camera to assist you if
it shows a good, clea r picture. For example,
the image may be affected by the sun shin­
ing into the lens, dirt on the lens o r if there
is a de fec t.
- Use the rea rv iew camera only with the rear
lid completely closed. Make sure any objects
you may have moun ted o n the rear lid do
no t block the rearv iew camera .
@ Tips
-The rear view came ra p icture is available as
soon as the MMI Disp lay o r th e MMI is
switched on, or the start-up phase is com­
pleted.
- The sensors m ust be kept clean and free of
snow and ice for the park ass ist to operate.

control unit of the Advanced Airbag System .
When a child restraint is being used on the front passenger seat with a typical 1 year -o ld chi ld, the
Advanced Airbag System compares the weight measured by the weight sensing mat with the in­
formation stored in the electron ic contro l unit .
T he electronic control unit a lso registers the ten­
sion on the front passenger safety belt. The ten­
sion on the safety belt for the front passenger
seat will be different for an adult who is properly
usi ng the safety belt as compared to the tens ion
on the belt w hen it is used to attach a chi ld re­
straint to the sea t. The senso r below the latch fo r
the safe ty belt for the fron t seat passenger
measures the tension on the be lt. The inp ut from
this sensor is then used with the weight to "de ­
cide", whether the re is a child restraint wit h a
typical 1 year-old chi ld on the front passenger
seat and whether or not the airbag must be
turned
off .
Child restraints and Advanced Airbags
Regardless of the chi ld restraint that you use,
make sure that it has been ce rtified to meet Un it­
ed States Fede ral Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
and has been certified by i ts manufac turer for
use w ith an airbag . A lways be sure tha t the child
restra int is properly installed at one o f the rear
seating positions . If in exceptiona l circumstances
you must use it on the front passenger seat, care­ fu lly read all of the information on child safety
and Advanced Airbags and heed all of the appli­
cable WARNINGS . Make certain that the ch ild re ­
straint is correctly recognized by the weight-sens­
i ng mat i nside the front passenge r seat, that the
fr ont passenger airbag is tu rned
off and that the
air bag status is always corre ct ly signaled by the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF li ght .
Many types and models of ch ild rest ra ints have
b een ava ilable over the yea rs, new models are i n­
t roduced regul arly incorpo rat ing new and im­
p roved des igns and o lder models a re taken o ut o f
p ro du ction. Child rest raints a re not standardized.
Child restra ints of the same type typically have
d ifferent weights and s iz es and different 'foot­
prin ts,' the si ze and shape of the bottom of the
child restraint that sits on the seat , when they
Child sa fety
are insta lled on a vehicle seat. These differences
make it virtua lly impossib le to certify compliance
with t he requirements for advanced airbags with
each and every chi ld restraint that has ever been
sold in the past or will be sold over the course of
the usefu l life of your vehicle.
For t his reason, the United States National High ­
way Traffic Safety Adm inistrat ion has published a
