Audi adaptive cruise
control
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi adaptive cruise control

»

Fig.
100 Sensor range
The adaptive cruise control is a combined speed
and distance control system. It assists the driver
by controlling the road speed and the distance to
the vehicle in front within certain limits imposed
by the system. The adaptive cruise control sys­
tem can accelerate and brake when it detects a
vehicle in front. This provides maximum comfort
both on long motorway journeys and in conges­
ted traffic (automatic gearbox*).
What can the adaptive cruise control do?
The adaptive cruise control uses a radar. The ra­
dar is subject to certain system limitations

opage
112.
When there is no traffic in front, the adaptive
cruise control works just like a normal cruise
con­

trol system by maintaining a constant speed.
When you draw closer to a vehicLe in front which
is detected by the system, the adaptive cruise
control matches your speed to that vehicle by au­
tomatically applying the brakes, and then main­
tains a constant distance (which you can adjust in
the settings). As soon as it detects no more
vehicles in front, the adaptive cruise control ac­
celerates back up to the cruising speed.
Applies to: vehicles with automatic gearbox
In congested traffic, the adaptive cruise control
can brake down to a standstill and accelerate
again (subject to general system limitations) un­
der certain conditions
*$page
115, Driving in
congested traffic. The traffic jam assist (active
lane assist)* can assist the driver in traffic jams
and heavy congestion
<=>page

Which functions can the driver control?
When you switch on the adaptive cruise control,
you can set your current speed as the "cruising

speed"

113, Switching
on/off.

While you are driving, you can interrupt the
cruise control

The traffic jam assist
can help to keep the vehicle in Lane. The system
steers the vehicle automatically when the adap­
tive cruise control is switched on (subject to cer­
tain inherent system limitations). As the name
implies, the purpose of the traffic jam assist
function is to assist the driver; the driver must
keep his/her hands on the steering wheel at all
times and must always be ready to take over the

steering.
The driver can override the automatic
steering at any time by steering manually.
The system is designed for driving on motorways
and major roads.
Requirements for using the traffic jam assist
• The vehicle's speed must be below
65
km/h.
• The active lane assist must be switched on and
it must have detected a demarcation line on •

Electronic stabilisation
control (ESC)
Description
The electronic stabilisation control (ESC) increa­
ses the car's stability. It reduces the tendency to
skid and improves the stability and roadholding
of the vehicle. The ESC detects critical handling
situations, such as understeer, oversteer and

wheelspin
on the driven wheels. It stabilises the
vehicle by braking individual wheels or by reduc­
ing the engine torque. The indicator
lamp^
in
the instrument cluster starts flashing as soon as
the ESC intervenes.
The following systems are integrated in the ESC:
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
ABS prevents the wheels from locking up under
braking until the vehicle has reached a virtual

standstill.
You can continue to steer the vehicle
even when the brakes are on
full.
Keep your foot
on the brake pedal and do not pump the brakes.
You will feel the brake pedal puLsate while the
anti-lock brake system is working.
Brake assist system
The brake assist system can shorten the braking
distance. The braking force is automatically boos­
ted if
you
press the brake pedal quickly in an
emergency. You must keep pressing the brake
pedal until the danger has passed. On
vehides

with adaptive cruise control*, the response of the
brake assist system will be more sensitive if you
are too close to the vehicLe in front.
Traction control system (ASR)
In the event of
wheelspin,
the traction control
system reduces the engine torque to match the
amount of grip available. This helps the car to
start moving, accelerate or climb a gradient.
Electronic differential lock (EDL)
When the EDL detects wheelspin, it brakes the
spinning wheel and directs the power to the
oth­

er driven wheel (or wheels on quattro* versions).
This function is not available at high speeds.
To prevent the disc brake of the braked wheel
from overheating, the EDL cuts out automatically
if subjected to excessive loads. The vehicLe can
still be driven. The EDL will switch on again auto­
matically when the brake has cooled down.
Steering recommendation
The ESC helps to stabilise the vehicle by changing
the steering wheel torque.
Trailer stabilisation system
Applies to: vehicles with trailer stabilisation system
Trailers have a tendency to sway. If the
ESC
de­
tects that the trailer is swaying and this is affect­
ing the towing vehicLe, it will automatically brake
the vehicle in order to stabilise the trailer

^>page
97.
Selective wheel torque control
Selective wheel torque control intervenes when
cornering by braking the wheel(s) on the inside of
the bend individually as required. This enables
precision cornering.
Multicollision brake assist system
The "multicollision brake assist system" can help
to reduce the risk of skidding and further
colli­

sions during an accident. If the airbag control
unit detects that
a
collision has taken place up­
wards of
a
certain speed, the vehicle is braked by
the
ESC.

The vehicle will not be braked automatically if:
- the driver presses the accelerator,
- or the
ESC,
the brake system or the vehicle's
electrical system are not fully functional.
WARNING
- The grip provided by the ESC and the inte­
grated systems is still subject to the physi­
cal limits of adhesion. Always bear this in

mind,
especially on wet or sLippery roads. If
you notice the systems cutting in, you
should reduce your speed immediately to
suit the road and traffic conditions. Do not

let
the extra safety provided tempt you into
taking any risks when driving - this can
cause accidents.

Intelligent technology
the standard tyres. Nevertheless, we still recom­
mend that winter tyres or all-season tyres should
be fitted on all four wheels when winter road
conditions are expected, mainly because this will
give a better braking response.
Snow chains
On roads where snow chains are mandatory, this
also applies to cars with four-wheel drive

Opcrge
309, Snow chains.
Replacing tyres
On vehicles with four-wheel drive, all four tyres
must have the same rolling circumference. Also
avoid using tyres with varying tread depths

tapage
305,
New wheels or tyres.
Off-roader?
Some models do not have enough ground clear­
ance to be used on rough tracks and uneven ter­

rain,
so it is best to avoid off-road driving.
A WARNING
- Even with four-wheel drive, you should al­
ways adjust your speed to suit the condi­

tions.
Do not let the extra safety provided
tempt you into taking any risks when driving
- this can cause accidents.
- The braking ability of your car is limited by
the grip of the tyres. In this respect, your
car is no different from a car without four-
wheel drive. So do not be tempted to drive
too fast on icy or slippery roads just because
the car still has good acceleration in these
conditions - risk of accident!
- On wet roads bear in mind that the front
wheels may start to "aquaplane" and lose
contact with the road if the car is driven too
fast. If this should happen, there will be no
sudden increase in engine speed to warn the
driver, as with a front-wheel drive car. So do
not drive too fast in the wet: adjust your
speed to suit the conditions (accident risk).

Power management
This system helps to ensure reliable
starting

The
power management controls the distribu­
tion of electrical energy and thus helps to ensure
that there is always enough power available to
start the engine.
If
a
vehicle with a conventional electrical system
is left parked for
a
long time, the vehicle battery
will gradually lose its charge because certain
electrical equipment (such as the immobiliser)
continues to draw current even when the ignition
is off. In some cases there may not be enough
power available to start the engine.
Your vehicLe is equipped with an intelligent pow­
er management system to control the distribu­
tion of electrical energy. This significantly im­
proves reliability when starting the engine, and
also prolongs the life of the vehicle battery.
The main functions incorporated in the power
management system are battery diagnosis, re­
sidual current management and dynamic power
management.
Battery diagnosis
The battery diagnosis function constantly regis­
ters the condition of the vehicle battery. Sensors
detect the battery voltage, battery current and
battery temperature. This enables the system to
calculate the current power level and charge
con­

dition of the vehicle battery.
Residual current management
The residual current management reduces power
consumption while the vehicle is parked. It
con­

trols the supply of power to the various electrical
components while the ignition is switched off.
The system takes the battery diagnosis data into
consideration.
Depending on the power Level of the vehicle bat­
tery, the individual electrical components are
switched off one after the other to prevent the
vehicle battery from losing too much charge and
to ensure that the engine can be started reliably. •

tains only audio/video* files. If
you
want to re­
duce the time it takes to load the audio/video*

files,
you can create subfolders (e.g. for an artist
or album). The loading time will be extended ad­
ditionally if
you
are importing data.
Metadata: Metadata stored on audio files (e.g.
artists, tracks, album covers) will be displayed
automatically when the files are played. If this
information is not stored on the relevant medi­

um,
the MMI system will use the database of
metadata from Gracenote. Nevertheless, meta­
data may not be displayed in some cases.

experience re­
stricted performance, reset the Media settings

CD/DVD mode
CD/DVD and format limitations: In view of the
variety of CDs/DVDs and the difference in memo­
ry capacities, the functionality may be restricted
in the case of some storage devices. Under cer­
tain circumstances, audio CDs/video DVDs that
are copy-protected or CDs/DVDs that do not com­
ply with the standard audio format, and multi-
session CDs cannot be played at all, or the func­
tionality may be limited. We recommend always
finalising the burning process when creating

multisession
CDs. Multisession is not supported
for DVDs.
Handling CDs/DVDs, the CD drive or the DVD

drive:
To ensure perfect, high-quality playback
and avoid scanning errors or damage to the me­
dia drive, always store CDs/DVDs in a suitable
case and do not expose them to direct sunlight.
Do not use:
- Damaged, dirty or scratched CDs/DVDs
- Single CDs/DVDs (diameter 8 cm)
- Non-circular CDs/DVDs (shape CDs)
- CDs/DVDs with stickers
- Protective rings
- Cleaning discs
Thermal cut-out: In the case of unusually hot or
cold outside temperatures, it is possible that CD/
DVD playback will temporarily not be possible. A •
