Assistance systems
The following situations may affect the function
of t he night vision assist system:
- Poor visibility such as snow, rain , fog or heavy
spray
- Dirty lens on the night vision assist camera
Make sure the night vision ass ist camera
¢ fig. 113 is not covered by stickers, deposits or
any other obstructions because that can affect
the camera function. For information on clean
ing, see
¢ page 228.
The pedestrian and wild animal recognition de
pends on the temperature difference between
the person/wild animal and the background. Peo ple/wild animals may not be detected if the dif
ference is too small. The pedestrian/wild animal
marking and the marking light* deactivate at
temperatures above approximately 77 °F
(25 °()

your vehicle when night vision assist is switch
ed on. The driver is always responsible for as
sessing the traffic situation.
- Night vision assist can only warn about peo
ple and wild animals located within the visu
al range of the infrared camera. The visual
range corresponds to the image in the in

wild animals and mark them if
- they are not in an upright position, for ex
ample if they are sitting or lying down

complete or interrupted, for example be
cause the person is partially covered by a
vehicle or the animal is partially covered
by tall grass. This could increase the risk
of an accident.
- Never try to swerve around animals if doing
so will endanger you or other road users, be
cause this increases the risk of an accident.

Audi drive select (drive

Introduction
Drive select makes it possible to experience dif
ferent types of veh icle settings in one vehicle .
The dr iver can se lect
Comf ort , Auto a nd D ynamic
modes in the I nfota inme nt system to switch be
tween , fo r example , a sporty and a comfo rtable
driving mode .
I n the
Indi vidual mode, the sett ings can be ad
justed to your perso nal preferences . This makes
it poss ible to comb ine settings such as a sporty
engine setting with light steering.
Description
The fo llowing systems, among other things, are
infl uenc ed by drive select:
Engine and automatic transmission
D epending on the mode, the e ng in e and auto
mat ic transmission respond more q uickl y o r in a
more balanced manner to accelerator pedal
A ss istance systems
movements . In the sporty dynamic mode, the
transmission shifts at higher speed ranges .
Adaptive air suspension*
The adapt ive a ir suspens ion* is an e lectron ica lly
contro lled air suspens io n and dampi ng sys tem.
T he adjustment depends o n the dr iving mode se
l ected, steering movements, the driver's braking
and acce leration, and as the road surface, ve hicle
speed and load.
T he vehi cle ground clearance depends on t he
mode selected and the speed . When you are in
the
a uto mode, the highway setting is activated
when you dr ive above 75 mph (120 km/h) for
more than 30 seconds. The ground clearance is
increased automatically if the speed drops below
44 mph (70 km/h) for more than 120 seconds .
Suspension control*
With the Audi Dynamic Ride Contro l damping
contro l, dampening characteristics of the vehicle
can be individually adjusted us ing drive select.
This makes it possib le to satisfy the des ire for
sporty suspens ion (DYNAMIC) and comfortable
suspension (COMFOR T) without g iv ing up bal
anced tu ning (AUTO) .
Steering
The power steering adapts. Indirect steering that
moves easily as in comfort mode is espec ially
su ited to long drives on a highway . The dynamic
mode provides sporty, direct steeri ng .
Applies to: vehicles with dynamic steering
The steering ratio changes based on veh icle
speed in order to maintain optimum steering ef
fort for the driver at all times . Th is sets the steer
i ng to be less sensitive at h igher speeds i n orde r
