steering behavior AUDI A6 2020 Owners Manual

Driver assistance

If the indicator light turns on, the lane depar-
ture warning is not ready to provide warnings.
This may be due to the following reasons:
— The necessary lane marker lines have not been
detected (for example, in a construction zone
or because the lines are obstructed by snow,
dirt, water, or lighting)
— The speed is below the activation speed
— The lane is too narrow or too wide
— The curve is too narrow
— The driver's hands are not on the steering
wheel
— Visibility is obstructed by a rise or dip.
Steering intervention request
If no steering activity is detected or the steering
power from the system is not sufficient, the driv-
er steering intervention request will alert the
driver using audio and visual signals. Take over
the steering and keep your hands on the steering
wheel so that you will be ready to steer at any
time. The system will become inactive after a
short time and will only be active again later.
If the driver does not take over steering, the lane
departure warning will no longer be ready to pro-
vide warnings. If the vehicle is equipped with
emergency assist and it is ready to function, it
will be activated > page 154.
Behavior when a turn signal is active
Applies to: vehicles with side assist: Even if the
system is ready to provide warnings, it will not
warn you if you activate a turn signal before
crossing the lane marker line. In this case, it as-
sumes that you are changing lanes intentionally.
Applies to: vehicles with side assist: If the turn
signal is activated, the lane departure warning is
ready, and a lane change has been classified as
critical by the lane departure warning due to
vehicles traveling beside you or due to approach-
ing vehicles, then a noticeable corrective steering
movement will occur shortly before exiting the
lane. This will attempt to keep your vehicle in the
lane.

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 118.
— The system warns the driver that the vehicle
is leaving the lane using corrective steering.
The
driver is always responsible for keeping
the vehicle within the lane.
— Corrective steering may not occur at all in
certain situations, such as during heavy
braking. Always be ready to intervene.

(i) Tips
— Always keep your hands on the steering
wheel so you can be ready to steer at any
time. The driver is always responsible for
adhering to the regulations applicable in
the country where the vehicle is being oper-
ated.
— The system does not provide any corrective
steering or steering wheel vibrations if it de-
tects that you are passing another vehicle.
