Audi active Lane assist
Description
Applies to : vehicles wi th A udi act ive la n e ass ist
Active lane ass ist (lane departure warning) de­
tects lane marker lines within the l imits of the
system using a camera in the windshield . If you
are approach ing a detected lane marker l ine and
it appears likely that you will leave the lane, the
system w ill warn you with corrective steering.
You can override this steering at any time. If you pass over a line, the steering whee l will vibrate
lightly . In order for this warn ing v ibration to oc­
cur, it must first be sw itched on in the Infotain­
ment system. Act ive lane assis t is ready for oper­
ation when the lane marker line is detected on at
least one side of the veh icle .
The system is designed for driving on express­ ways and h ighways and therefore only activates
at speeds above approx imately 40 mph (65 km/
h).
Applies to: vehicles with side assist: if you acti­
vate a turn s ignal when active lane assist is ready
and it classifies a lane change as critical because
of vehicles traveling alongside you or approach­ i n g you, the re w ill be noticeable corrective steer­
i n g shortly before you leave the lane. This will at­
tempt to keep your veh icle in the lane.
Applies to: vehicles without side assist: the ready
system does not wa rn you if you activate a turn
signal befo re cross ing the lane marker line. In
130
this case, it assumes that you are chang ing lanes
intentionally .
Applies to: vehicles with adaptive cruise control:
there is no corrective steer ing or warnings if the
system recognizes a dist inct passing maneuver .
If the conditions are met, traffic jam assist
switches on at speeds under approximately
40 mph (65
km/h) ¢ page 121.
A WARNING
,-
- The system warns the driver that the vehicle
is leaving the lane using correct ive steering .
The driver is always responsible for keeping
the vehicle within the lane.
- The system can help you keep the vehicle in the lane, but it does not drive by itse lf . Al­
ways keep your hands on the steering
wheel.
- Cor rective steering may not occur in certain
situations, such as du ring heavy braking.
- There may be cases where the camera does
not recognize all lane marker lines. Correc­
tive stee ring can only take place on the s ide
of the vehicle where lane marker lines are
detected.
- Othe r road structures or objects could poss i­
bly be identified un intent ionally as lane
marker lines . As a result, corrective steering
may be unexpected or may not occur.
- The camera view can be restricted, for ex­
ample by vehicles driving ahead or by rain,
snow, heavy spray or light shining into the
camera. This can result in active lane ass ist
not detecting the lane marker lines or de­
tect ing them incorrectly .
- In certain s ituations where visibility is low,
the vehicle may switch from an "early" to
"late" steering correction .
- Under certain cond it ions such as ruts in the
road, an inclined roadway or crosswinds, the
corrective steer ing alone may not be enough
to keep the vehicle in the m iddle of the lane .
- For safety reasons, act ive la ne assist must
not be used when there are poor road and/
or weather conditions such as slippery roads, fog, gravel, heavy rain, snow and the

potential for hydroplaning. Using active lane
assist under these conditions may increase
the risk of a crash.

(for example, markings in a construction zone
or because they are obstructed by snow, dirt,
water or light ing) .
- The vehicle speed is below the activation speed of approximately 40 mph (65 km/h).
- The lane is too narrow or too wide.
- The curve is too narrow.
- The driver's hands are not on the steering

I m
In certain cases, a veh icle w ill be classified as
critical for a lane change even if it is st ill some­
what far away. The faster a vehicle approaches,
the sooner the display in the ex terior m irror will
turn o n.
@ Vehicles traveling with you
Vehicles traveling with you are indicated in the
exter ior mir ror if they are class ified as cr it ical for
a la ne change . All vehicles detected by side ass ist
a re indicated by the time they enter your "blind
spot", at the latest.
© Vehicles you are p assing
If you slowly pass a vehicle that side assist has detected (the differe nce in speed between the
vehicle and your vehicle is less than approximate­
ly 9 mph ( 15 km/h)), the disp lay in the exter ior
mir ror turns on as soon as the vehicle ente rs you r
blind spot.
The display wi ll not turn on if you quickly pass a
vehicle that side ass ist has detected (the differ ­
ence in speed is grea ter than approximate ly 9
mph (15 km/h)) .
Functional limitations
The radar sensors are des igned to detect the left
and right adjacent lanes whe n the road lanes are
the norma l width. I n some situa tions, the display
i n the exte rior m irror may turn o n even though
there is no vehicle located in the area tha t is criti­
ca l for a lane c hange. For example:

<( a, .... N ,....
N .... 0 \0
3 a,
-If the lanes are narrow or if your are driving on
the edge of your lane. If this is the case , the
system may have detected a veh icle in another
lane that is
not adjacent to your current lane.
-If you are driving through a curve . Side assist
may react to a vehicle that is in the same lane
or one lane over from the adjacent lane.
-If side assist reacts to other objects (such as
roadside structures like guard rails).
-In poor weather conditions . The side assist
functions are limited.
Do not cover the radar
sensors ¢ fig. 134 with
stickers, deposits, bicycle whee ls or other ob­
jects, because this wi ll impa ir the function. Do
not use side assist when towing a trailer. For in­
formation on cleaning, see
¢page 362 .
A WARNING
-Always pay attention to traffic and to the
area around your vehicle. Side assist cannot replace a dr iver's attention. The dr iver alone
is a lways responsib le for lane changes and
similar d riving maneuvers.
-In some situat ions, the system may not
function or its funct ion may be limited. For
example:
-If vehicles are approach ing or being left
behind very quickly. The display may not
turn on in t ime.
-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 outs ide of the sensor
range.
(D Note
The sensors can be displaced by impacts or damage to the bumper, wheel housing and
underbody. Th is can impa ir the system . Have
an authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Serv ice Facility check their function.
