-Improper reliance on the side assist system
can cause collisions and serious personal in­
jury:
- Never rely only on side assist when chang­
ing lanes.
- Always check rear view mirrors to make
sure that it is safe to change lanes.
- Side assist cannot detect all vehicles under
all conditions- danger of accident!
- Please note that side assist indicates there
are approaching vehicles, or vehicles in your
blind spot, only after your vehicle has
reached a driving speed of at least 19 mph
(30 km/h).
- In certain 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 mist.
- 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 affect the system. Have
your authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility check their function.
(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 misin­
terpreted.

Audi drive select Drive settings
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
Drive select provides the possibility to experience
d iff erent types of vehicle settings in one veh icle.
F or instance, using the three
Comfort, Auto and
Dynamic modes, the driver can switch from a
sporty to a comfortab le driving mode with the
press of a button.
Addit ionally, in vehicles with MM I*, the vehicle
setup for
Individual* mode can be customized by
you. This makes it possible to combine settings
such as a sporty engine tuning with comfortable
steering.
A WARNING
-
Improper use of the Audi drive select can
cause collisions, other accidents and serious
personal injury .
Description
Applie s to: vehicles with Audi drive select
The vehicle setup in each mode depends on the
veh icle's features . However, the engine, auto­
matic transmission and steering are always in­
volved.
Engine and automatic transmission
Depending on the mode, the engine and the au ­
tomatic transm ission respond quicker or in a
more balanced manner to accelerator pedal
movements . In the sporty dynam ic mode, the au­
tomatic transmission shifts at higher RPMs .
Steering
The steering adapts in terms of steering effort
and steering ratios. Indirect steer ing that moves
eas ily, like the steering in comfort mode, is best
suited to long drives on a highway. In contrast,
dynamic mode provides sporty, direct steering.
gi The follow ing applies to vehicles with dynam ic
;:::: steering*: the steering rat io changes based on
r--.
~ vehicle speed in order to ma inta in optim um 0
fi:' steering effort for the driver at all times. This 00
Audi drive select
sets the steering to be less sensitive at higher
speeds in order to provide improved vehicle con­
tro l. At reduced speeds, however, steering is
more direct in order to keep the steering effort as
minimal as possible when the driver is maneuver­
ing the vehicle. At low and average speeds, dy ­
nam ic steering additionally prov ides more re­
sponsive steering performance .
Adaptive dampers*
The adaptive dampers* use sensors to record in­
formation regarding steering movements, brak­
ing and acceleration operations by the driver,
road surface, driving speed, and load . This makes
it possible to adapt damping to the driving situa­
t ion virtua lly in real time. Drive select also makes
it possible to sat isfy the desire for sporty suspen­
sion (Dynamic) and comfortable suspension
(Comfort) without giving up balanced tuning (Au­
to).
Sport differential*
As a component of the all whee l dr ive system
(quattro)
c::> page 172, the sport different ial* dis­
tributes the driving power to the rear axle de­
pending on the situation. The distribution of
power varies depending on the mode selected.
The goal is a high level of ag ility and ability to ac­
celerate on curves. The vehicle is very responsive
to steering.
Audi adaptive cruise control*
The behavior when accelerating can be adjusted
from comfortable to sporty, depending on the
drive select mode. Adaptive cruise control also
responds to the driving behavior of the vehicle
ahead in a more conservative or sporty manner .
Engine sound*
The sound of the engine is adapted to the select­
ed mode and ranges from subtle to sporty.
(D Tips
- In some models, the maximum vehicle
speed can only be reached in the
Auto and
Dynamic modes.
- For vehicles with an automatic transmis-
sion, se lecting the
Dynamic mode resu lts in ...,

sporty shifting characteristics . The S gear
position engages automatically.
- In vehicles that have dynamic steering*, op­
erating noise is heard when starting or stop­
ping the engine. This does not ind icate a
problem.

era),
the rear acoustic park assist system is inte­
grated in the rear of the ve hicle and the rear v iew
camera is integrated in the rear lid
¢ page 107 .
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
st ic ke rs, depos its o r any othe r obstr uctions as
i t may impa ir the sensor function. For infor­
mation on clean ing, refe r to¢

Rear parking system
Rear acoustic park assist
Applies to: veh icles w ith parking system (rear)
The rear acoustic pork assist warns you of obsta­
cles or objects behind your car.
Description
The rear acous tic p arking assist system de ter ­
mines the d istance o f the veh icle from an obsta -
104 cle using ultrasonic sensors
. There are 4 sensors
in the rear bumper.
The range at whi ch the sensors s tart to measure
i s
abou t:
To the s ide 2 ft (0 .60 m)
Cente r rear 5.2 ft (1.60 m)
Activation
Acoustic parking assist is act ivated automatically
whe n
revers e gear is engaged. A brief tone con­
firms that the system is a ctivated.
Warning tones
D istance warning is give n by warni ng tones wh ich
are generated by the rear signal generator . The
vo lume and the p itch of the warn ing tones can be
adjus ted in the M MI*
¢ page 105.
Rever sing
D istance warning when reversing starts when an
obstacle is detected in t he range of the parking
ass ist system . As the distance dec reases, the
time interva l between the audib le tones becomes
sho rter.
When the distance is less than 1ft (0 .30 m), the
tone becomes cont inuo us. At th is point you
shou ld stop backing up .
Please note that low objects already s ignalled by
a war ning can d isappear from the system's detec ­
tion range and wi ll not cont inue to be s ignalled .
If the distance to an obstacle remains the same,
the volume of the d istance warning is gradually
reduced after about 4 seconds (th is does not ap ­
ply i n the continous to ne range) . Approaching an­
othe r obstacle will result in the distance warn ing
sounding at the normal volume aga in.
Malfunctions in the system
If a warning tone is audible for about five sec­
o nds when you turn on the ignition, there is a
malfunction in the system . Have the prob lem
cor rected by you r authorized Audi dea le r.
Keep the sensors in the rear bumper clean and
free from ice so that the acoustic park ass ist sys -
tem can function properly . .,.

,&_ WARNING
-Sensors have dead spaces in which objects
cannot be detected. Be especia lly alert for
small children and animals, since they are not always detected by the sensors.
- The acoustic parking system is not a substi­
tute for the dr iver's own caution and alert­
ness. Ultimate respons ibility always remains
with the driver during parking and sim ilar
maneuvers . Always watch where you are
dr iv ing .
- You should always adjust the volume and
frequency of the warning tones so that you
can eas ily hea r the acoustic distance wa rn­
ing even if the radio is p lay ing, the air-cond i­
tioner blower is on High or there is a high
level of ou ts ide no ise .
- Check the settings whenever anyone e lse
has driven the vehicle before you.
(D Note
- Remember that low obstacles for which a
warning has already been issued may "dive"
below the system's sensing zone if the vehi­
cle is being backed up closer. In this case,
the war ning sound shutting off does
not in­
dicate that you have cleared the obstacle.
Instead, impact is imm inent.
- Objects such as tra iler hitches, chains, nar­
row posts or fences cove red by a th in laye r
of pa int may not always be detected by the
system. They can still damage your vehicle
wi thout warn ing.
{O) Tips
Keep the senso rs in the rear bumper clean
and free of snow and ice so that t he acous tic
parking assist sys tem can f unction properly.
