Adaptive cruis e control and bra kin g guard
vehicles such as motorcycles and bicy­
cles.
- The adaptive cruise control system can­
not detect people, animals and cannot
detect objects or traffic that crosses your
lane of travel.
- Never drive at speeds that are too fast for traffic, road and weather conditions.
- Never use adaptive cruise control when
you cannot drive safely at a steady speed, including on wind ing roads or
when road conditions are poor (for exam ­
ple, in construction sites, on ice , gravel,
in fog, heavy ra in or on wet roads that in­
crease the risk of hydroplan ing).
- Never follow a veh icle so closely that you
cannot stop your vehicle safely. The
adaptive cruise cont ro l cannot slow or
brake the veh icle safely when you follow
another veh icle too closely. Always re ­
member that the automatic braking
function cannot bring the vehicle to a
sudden or emergency stop under these
condit ions.
- Never rest your foot on the acce lerator
pedal, especially when the adaptive
cruise control is being used. Pressure on
the accelerator w ill override the adaptive
cruise control braking function and pre­
vent the brakes from being applied whe n
adaptive cruise cont ro l detects a situa­
t io n when the brakes must be applied.
- Never use adaptive cruise control whe n
the radar sensors cannot accurately de­
t ect vehicles moving in t raff ic. The rad ar
sensor's vision can be reduced by heavy
rain, ice, snow, heavy road spray and re­
flect ions from guard rails, t unnel ent ran­
ces, etc. These and simi lar conditions can
prevent vehicles from being accurately
detected and in some cases they may not
be detected at all .
- Always turn off adaptive cru ise contro l
when entering turn lanes, exit lanes and
constr uction zones or in similar sit ua­
t ions because the vehicle will automati­
ca lly accelerate to the sto red speed when
the roa d ahead is clear. -
To prevent unintended operation, a lways
sw itch ACC off when it is not being used .
(D Note
The sensors can be moved by impac ts or
damage to the bumper, wheel housing and underbody . Damage in these areas could
change the way the adaptive cru ise control
system and Aud i brak ing guard work to­
gether . Have your authorized Audi deale r
check to make s ure that the adaptive
cruise control system is wor king p roperly if
your vehicle had a m ino r frontal impact or
was damaged in the area of the sensors.

What c an adaptive cruise control do?
The adaptive cruise control system uses video,
radar and ultrasound. Mov ing vehicle ahead
can be recognized up to about 650 feet (200 m) away .
On open roads w ith no traffic, adaptive cruise
control wo rks like a regu la r cruise control sys­
tem. The stored speed is maintained. When
ap proaching a moving vehicle de tected up
a head, t he adapt ive cr uise control system au­
tomatically s lows dow n to ma tch that vehi­
cle's spee d and then ma in tain s th e d istance
that the driver previo usly s to red. As soon as
the system does not de tect a vehicle up
ahead, adaptive c ruise control acce lerates
bac k up to the stored speed.

Setting the distance and driving
program
Applies to vehicles: with adaptive cruise co ntrol
Fig. 93 Operating leve r: sett ing the distance
The distance at which the adaptive cruise con­
trol follows a vehicle in front is determined by
time interva ls. A time interval to a vehicle in
front is estab lished and maintained. This pro ­
duces a speed-dependent inte rval. The higher
the speed, the greater the safety interval in
yards (meters)¢ ,&.
Setting the distance
~ Tap the switch to d isplay the current set dis­
tance
¢fig. 93.
~ To increase or reduce the distance by incre­
ments, tap the switch again to the left or
right. The distance between the two vehicles
will change in the instrument cluster dis­
play.
Setting the driving program
~ Select in the MMI: !CAR ! function button >
Car Systems control button > Driver assist >
adaptive cruise control > Driving program .
Setting the distance
When approaching a movi ng veh icle up ahead,
the adaptive cruise contro l system automati­
cally brakes to match that object's speed and
then maintains the stored distance. When this happens, the actual distance may briefly be
less than the stored distance. If the veh icle
ahead accelerates, adaptive cruise control will
also accelerate up to the stored speed.
The higher the speed, the greater the distance
in yards (meters) ¢&. . The
Distance 3 setting
is recommended. The distances
provided are specified va lues.
Depending on the driving situation and the
how the vehicle ahead is driving, the actual
distance may be more or less than these tar­
get distances.

Setting the driving program
You can select Dynamic, Standard or Comfort
driving programs. Depending on the selected
driving program and distance, driving behav­
ior when accelerating will vary from dynamic
to comfortable.
.&_ WARNING
Following other vehicles too closely in­
creases the risk of coll is ions and ser ious
personal injury.
- Sett ing short d istances to the traffic
ahead reduces the time and distance
availab le to bring your vehicle to a safe
stop and makes it even more necessary
to pay close attention to traffic.

Audi braking guard
Description
Applies to vehicles: wit h adapt ive c ru ise control
Fig. 94 Instrument cluster: approach warn ing
Audi brak ing guard uses radar sensors and a
video camera . It is active at speeds above
about 6.2 mph (10 km/h) and also works
within system limits when adaptive cruise control is switched off.
On vehicles with aAdaptive cruise control and
Audi side assist (Audi pre sense plus), system
functions also engage when a co llision is im­
minent
¢page 188.
What can Audi braking guard do?
When detected in time, the system can assess
situations when a vehicle ahead brakes sud­
denly or if your own veh icle is traveling at a
h igh speed and approaching a vehicle up
ahead that is moving more slowly. Audi brak­
ing guard does not react if it cannot detect
the situation.
The system advises you of various kinds situa­ tions :
- The
distance warning is given if you are too
close to the vehicle ahead for a long time. If
the vehicle ahead brakes sharply, you will not be able to avoid a coll is ion. The ind icator
light
I i n the d isplay comes on. Take imme ­
diate action to avoid the coll is ion and in­
crease the distance to the vehicle up ahead. -
The
approach warning is given when a de­
tected vehicle up ahead in your lane is mov­
ing much more slowly that you are or if it
brakes sharp ly. When this warning is given,
it may only be possible to avoid a collision
by swerving or braking sharp ly . The indicator
light
I and the symbol in the disp lay will
warn you about the danger
c:> fig. 94 . You
w ill also hear an acoustic signal.
If you do not react fast enough or do not react
at all to the situation, Aud i braking guard w ill
intervene by braking and the message
braking
guard intervention
w ill appear.
- If a coll is ion is imminent, the system will
first provide an
acute warning by brak ing
sharply .
- If you do not react to the acute warning, Au­
di braking guard will brake w ith increased
force in severa l stages to reduce the speed
in a possible collisio n. On ve hicles w ith
adaptive cruise contro l and Audi side assist
(Audi pre sense plus), the system can brake
with increasing force up to maximum decel­
eration shortly before a sensed collision
¢ page 188.
- If
the Audi braking g uard senses that you
are not braking hard enough when a colli­
sion is imminent, it can increase the braking
force.
Audi braking guard takes the driver's reaction
time into consideration in order to provide
timely warnings. The system reaction time de­ creases automatically in some situations, for
example when it detects accelerator pedal use
or steering input . The Audi braking guard in­
tervent ion stops in certa in situations, for ex­
amp le if you press the accelerato r pedal to
pass the vehicle moving ahead of you in your
lane.
Which functions can be controlled?
You can switch Audi braking guard and the
distance/approach warning on or off in the
M M I c:> page 93, Settings in the MMI.

Adaptive cru ise co ntrol and b rakin g guar d 93
A WARNING ,~
The Audi braking guard is an assist system
and cannot prevent a collis ion by itself.
The driver must always intervene. The driv­ er is always responsible for braking at the
co rrect time.
- Always pay close attention to traffic,
even when the Aud i brak ing guard is
switched on. Be ready to intervene and
be ready to take complete control whe n­
ever necessary. Always keep the safe and
legal distance between your vehicle and
vehicles up ahead.
-Audi braking guard works within limits and wi ll not respond outside the system
limits, for examp le when approaching a
stopped vehicle or stationary obstacle
(end of a traff ic jam or vehicle that has
broken down in traffic).
- Always remember that the radar sensor
for the Audi braking guard works only
within defined detect ion and range limits
that may prevent the proper detection of
other vehicles.
- The radar sensor's function and range
can be reduced by rain, snow and heavy
spray. moving vehicles up ahead may not
be promptly detected or may not be de ­
tected at al l.
- Reflective surfaces includ ing c rash ba rr i­
ers or tunnel en trances may impair the
function of the radar sensor .
(D Tips
Innattention can cause collisions, other ac­
cide nts and serious persona l injuries.
- You can stop the Audi b raking guard in­
te rvention w ith increas ing braking force
by applying the brakes yourse lf or by a c­
ce le rat ing rapidly.
