Roof carrier
Fig.
64 Attachment points for roof carrier
Note the folLowing points if
you
intend to carry
loads on the roof:
- Only use roof carrier cross bars designed for
your vehicle. The cross bars form the basic ele
ments of
a
complete roof carrier system. Addi
tional elements/carrier systems are needed in
order to transport luggage and sports equip
ment. We recommend using roof carriers and
additional elements from the range of Audi
Genuine Accessories.
- The feet of the roof carrier cross bars must be
attached at the points provided on the roof
*>Fig.
64.
- You should ensure that you do not exceed the
maximum permitted axle loads, gross weight
and roof load
for
your vehicle

roof load limit applies to the combined weight
of the roof carrier, the additional elements and
the Load itself. Please do not exceed the maxi
mum carrying load of the carrier system you are
using.
A WARNIN
- Note the fitting instructions provided by the
manufacturer of the roof carrier system. If
you do not secure the roof carrier system
and roof load correctly, they can become
separated from the vehicle and cause an ac
cident.
- The use of
a
roof carrier system affects the
vehicle's handling by shifting the centre of
gravity and increasing susceptibility to cross
winds - risk of accident! Take extra care
when driving and adjust your speed accord
ingly.
CAUTION
- Any damage to the vehicle caused by the
use of other types of roof rack or incorrect
installation will not be covered by the facto
ry warranty. The roof carrier system must
therefore be installed exactly according to
the instructions provided.
- Please take care that the boot lid and panor
ama sun roof* do not come into contact
with the roof load when opened.
(•)
For
the sake of the environment
The increased air resistance means that the
vehicle uses more
fuel.
For this reason you
should always take off the roof carrier when it
is not in use.

In air recirculation mode, the air from the interi

Audi pre sense
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with Audi pre sense
The pre sense functions can take action to pro
tect the vehicle occupants and other road users in
certain hazardous conditions within the system
limits.
- Because the different on-board systems are
networked,
pre sense basic can detect critical
situations and take preventive action to protect
the occupants.
- The pre sense front uses the data of the radar
sensor to calculate the probability of an
acci
dent
opage
112. It can detect an impending
collision with vehicles or
pedestrians1^
(subject
to general system limitations). In this case, the
system warns the driver visually, acoustically
and,
if necessary, with a short, sharp brake ap
plication.
If necessary, it can initiate a partial or
fuLl
brake application in order to reduce the im
pact speed or, in certain circumstances, to
avoid a collision. In conjunction with pre sense
basic, the reversible tensioners on the front
seat belts are also applied if necessary. Pre
sense front is active even when the adaptive
cruise control* is switched off.
Please observe the general safety warnings
•=>
A in General notes on page 112.
© Note
- Certain pre sense functions are deactivated
when reversing.
- The functions of the pre sense system may
also be unavailable if
a
fault develops in the
ESC
system or airbag control unit.
- Please note that, if the front passenger's
airbag has been deactivated, the reversible
belt tensioner on the passenger's side will
be deactivated as
well.
- Switch off pre sense on private roads and
while the vehicle is being loaded onto a car
transporter, train or ferry, etc. This prevents
the pre sense system from taking action in
an inappropriate situation.
Audi pre sense basic
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi pre sense basic
The pre sense basic functions are activated at
speeds above approximately 30 km/h.
The system can activate the following functions
in certain situations:
- Seat belt tensioning (e.g. during hard braking):
The seat belts on the front seats have reversi
ble tensioners. Provided an accident does not
occur, the belts are loosened again slightly and
kept ready for activation.
- Initiation of the closure process for the
win
dows and panorama sun roof* (e.g. if the
vehi
cLe understeers or oversteers).
Audi drive select*: the activation threshold
dif
fers according to the mode selected.
