surroundings directly and do not become dis-
tracted.

@) Note
— Obstacles may disappear from the measure-
ment range when approaching them, even if
they were already detected.
—Insome situations, the ability of the sen-
sors and cameras to detect and display cer-
tain objects may be limited.
— Objects located above the coverage area,
such as bumpers on parked cars, garage
doors that are partially open, or objects
that are hanging
— Low obstacles
— Narrow objects, such as barrier chains, fo-
liage, poles, or fences
— Projecting objects, such as trailer draw
bars
— Objects with certain surfaces and struc-
tures,
such as fabric
G) Tips
— The sensors and cameras and the areas
around them must not be obstructed be-
cause this can impair the function of the
systems that depend on them. Make sure
that the sensors and cameras are free of
snow, ice, and other deposits. Do not use
any accessories, stickers, or other objects
that extend into the range of the sensors
and cameras.
— On vehicles that have factory-installed li-
cense plate brackets on the front of the ve-
hicle, the brackets may only be replaced
with ones that are the same size and made
of the same material. Do not install any li-
cense plate brackets on the front of vehicles
that do not have factory-installed brackets.
Otherwise, the function of the system could
be impaired.
— The function of the sensors and cameras
may be limited when light and visibility con-
ditions are poor, for example when driving
into
a tunnel, when there is glare, or when
there are reflective objects.
— External ultrasonic sensors, such as those in
other vehicles, can interfere with the sen-
sors.
— The coverage areas of the sensors > fig. 108
are diagrams and do not represent a true-
to-scale image of the sensor ranges.
— For an explanation on conformity with the
FCC regulations in the United States and the
Industry Canada regulations, see

Parking and maneuvering

Displays, warnings, and braking
— Display: the display @ appears only when the
parking aid is active. For vehicles with peripher-
al cameras, this only happens in the Rear and
Corner view (rear) camera views. Arrows show
the direction from which the cross traffic is ap-
proaching.
— Audible warnings: a continuous tone may
sound as an additional warning when driving in
reverse.
— Automatic brake activation: if you do not react
to a warning, a brief braking by the system can
warn you of a potential collision with an ap-
proaching object.
The audible warning signal and the automatic
brake activation occur only when driving in re-
verse.
Switching on and off
— Applies to MMI: Select on the home screen: VE-
HICLE > Parking aid > Rear cross-traffic assist.
Or:
— When the parking aid active, select |.-| > Rear
cross-traffic assist in the center display.


Messages
if or » is displayed when there is a
malfunction, the rear cross traffic assist func-
tions may be unavailable or may be 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 sensor area in the ve-
hicle rear and try to turn the systems on 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.

ZA\ WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 121.
— The rear cross-traffic assist will not provide
alerts about people and cannot warn you

160

about every type of approaching objects,
such as cyclists. Always monitor the traffic
as well as the vehicle's surroundings with di-
rect eye contact.
— The system may not react if objects are ap-
proaching very quickly.
— The rear cross-traffic assist will not provide
alerts if your vehicle is parallel or diagonally
parked or if your vehicle is pulled too far in-
to the parking space so that it is hidden by
adjacent vehicles.
(i) Tips
— Once an automatic brake activation occurs,
the system cannot initiate another activa-
tion for several seconds.
— System functions may not be available if the
ESC is limited or switched off, or if there is a
malfunction.
— If there is an audio warning signal from the
rear cross-traffic assist, then the parking aid
may not be able to provide audio warnings
about detected obstacles under certain cir-
cumstances.
— For an explanation on conformity with the
FCC regulations in the United States and the
Industry Canada regulations, see
=> page 281.
— The coverage areas of the sensors > fig. 137
are diagrams and do not represent a true-
to-scale image of the sensor ranges.

Assisted parking
General information
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
If your vehicle is equipped with park assist, this
system helps you find suitable parking spaces.
Parking spaces are measured using ultrasonic
sensors on the sides of the vehicle.
If a parking space is found, the system helps you
to park while the driver monitors the vehicle's
surroundings with the parking aids, cameras*,
and direct eye contact. The vehicle moves the
steering wheel autonomously.
