Fig. 132 Upper display: rear cross-traffic assist display
General information
The rear cross-traffic assist monitors the area be-
hind and next to the vehicle using radar sensors
at the rear corners of the vehicle. The system can
detect moving objects that are approaching, such
as vehicles > fig. 131. A display in the MMI and
various warnings provide assistance when exiting
a parking space.
Requirements for using the rear cross-traffic
assist:
— Reverse gear must be engaged and the speed
while driving in reverse must not be higher than
6 mph (10 km/h).
Displays, warnings, and braking
— Display: the indicator @ in the upper display
only appears when the parking aid is activated.
In vehicles with peripheral cameras, the display
only appears in the Rear and Rear corner cam-
era views. Arrows show the direction from
which the cross traffic is approaching.
— Audible warnings: an audio signal may sound
as an additional warning when driving in re-
verse.
— Automatic brake activation: if you do not react
to a warning, a brief braking by the system can
warn you of a potential collision with an ap-
proaching object.
The audible warning signal and the automatic
brake activation occur only when driving in re-
verse.
Switching rear cross-traffic assist on and off
— Applies to: MMI: Select on the home screen:
VEHICLE > Parking aid > Rear cross-traffic as-
sist. Or
— Select |--| > Rear cross-traffic assist in the upper
display when the parking aid is active.


Messages
re or >% is displayed when there is a mal-
function, the rear cross traffic assist functions
may be unavailable or may be limited.
A message that indicates the cause and possible
solution may appear with some displays. The
weather conditions may be too poor or a sensor
may be covered. Clean the sensor area in the ve-
hicle rear and try to turn the system on again lat-
er.
If the malfunction remains, drive to an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty immediately to have the malfunction correct-
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 127.
— The rear cross-traffic assist will not provide
alerts about people and cannot warn you
about every type of approaching objects,
such as cyclists. Always monitor the traffic
as well as the vehicle's surroundings with di-
rect eye contact.
— The system may not react if objects are ap-
proaching very quickly.
— The rear cross-traffic assist will not provide
alerts if your vehicle is parallel parked or if

Parking and maneuvering


your vehicle is pulled too far into the park-
ing space so that it is hidden by adjacent
vehicles.

Gi) Tips
— Once an automatic brake activation occurs,
the system cannot initiate another activa-
tion for several seconds.
— System functions may not be available if the
ESC is limited or switched off, or if there is a
malfunction.
— If there is an acoustic warning signal from
the rear cross-traffic assist, then the park-
ing aid may not warn you of detected obsta-
cles under certain circumstances.
— The system is not available when the vehicle
detects that you are towing a trailer. There
is no guarantee the functions will be deacti-
vated when using a retrofitted trailer hitch.
Do not use these functions when towing a
trailer.
— For an explanation on conformity with the
FCC regulations in the United States and the
Industry Canada regulations, see
=> page 295.
— The coverage area of the sensors > fig. 131
is a diagram and does not represent a true-
to-scale image of the sensor ranges.
