Towing a trailer
Requirements for correct functioning of the
trailer stabilisation system
If these conditions are not met in
full,
the trailer
stabilisation system will only intervene to a
limi
ted extent or not at all
>=>
A-
- The electrical connection between the towing
vehicle and the trailer must be functioning cor
rectly.
- The load on the trailer must be properly se
cured.
- The tyre pressures on both the vehicLe and the
trailer must be adapted to the load that is be
ing carried.
- Where possible, operate the trailer with the
maximum permitted draw bar weight.
- The trailer overrun brake must be set correctly.
This is important to ensure that the trailer can
be braked correctly, to avoid the vehicle and
trailer "jack-knifing" and to prevent excess
braking of the trailer.
- At low outside temperatures, both the towing
vehicle and the trailer should be fitted with
winter tyres.
A WARNING
It is essential that you adjust your speed to
suit the weather, road and traffic conditions.
Do not let the trailer stabilisation system
tempt you into taking any risks when driving -
this can cause accidents.
- The ESC and trailer stabilisation system
can
not defy the Laws of physics. This should be
kept in mind, particularly on slippery and
wet roads and when towing a trailer with a
light Load.
- The trailer stabilisation system is function
al,
regardless of whether the trailer has a
mechanical overrun brake or not.
- The trailer stabilisation system is not always
able to detect swaying of trailers with a
light load and will therefore not intervene.
- A trailer can still "jack-knife" on slippery
roads with little grip, even if the towing ve
hicle is equipped with the trailer stabilisa
tion system.
-Trailers with a high centre of gravity may
even tip over before they start to sway
side
ways.
-If
you
are not towing a trailer,
but
the
trail
er socket is being used (e.g. for an illumina
ted bicycle rack), the trailer stabilisation
system may be activated in extreme driving
conditions.
- Please note the additional information and
warnings

98, Driving tips.
Driving tips
Driving with a trailer always requires extra care.
Weight distribution
Try to avoid towing a loaded trailer with an unla
den vehicle. If this cannot be avoided, drive extra
slowly to allow for the unbalanced weight distri
bution.
Speed
Normally, you must not exceed 80 km/h when
towing a trailer or caravan. However, if the
trail
er/caravan is equipped with a trailer stabilisation
system,
you can drive at max. 100 km/h. Please
observe any other regulations applicable in the
country in which you are travelling.
The stability of the car and trailer is reduced with
increasing speed. For this reason it is advisable
not to drive at the maximum permissible top
speed in unfavourable
road,
weather or wind
con
ditions. This applies especially on a downhill gra
dient.
You should always reduce speed immediately if
the trailer shows the slightest sign of swaying.
Never try to stop the swaying by accelerating fur
ther.
Always brake in good time. If the trailer has an
overrun brake, apply the brakes gently at first
and then firmly. This will prevent the jerking that
can be caused by the trailer wheels locking.
Change down in good time before going down a
steep hill so
that
you can use the engine braking
effect to slow down the vehicLe.
Swaying and pitching can be reduced by attach
ing an extra stabiliser to the trailer. It should •

A WARNING
- Always direct your full attention to the
road,
even when you are using the speed limiter.
It is always the driver who is responsible for
determining the speed and for keeping a
safe distance to the other vehicles on the
road.
- For safety reasons, the speed limiter must
not be used in adverse weather or difficult
driving conditions (such as ice, fog, loose
grit or gravel, heavy
rain,
etc.) - risk of
acci
dent!
- Only accelerate quickly or use the kick-down
feature when the visibility and weather
con
ditions are suitable, and when the road and
traffic conditions allow you do do so safely.
Before driving down a
long,
steep gradient, it
is advisable to reduce speed and select a low
er gear. In this way you will make use of the
engine braking effect and relieve the Load on
the brakes.

General notes
The traffic sign recognition system can detect
standardised speed Limit signs within the cam
era's range of
vision.
It makes use of the naviga
tion data to evaluate the detected speed limits
and show them on the display. Under certain
con
ditions, the system will also display the legal
speed limits on roads without speed Limit signs.
The traffic sign for the currently detected speed
limit will flash on the display if
a
speed warning
threshold,
which has been set on the infotain
ment system, is exceeded

Traffic sign recognition is not available in all
countries. For
a
current list, see the Internet (e.g.
www.audi.com). The system is also subject to
certain inherent restrictions and may be partially
or completely unavailable in the following situa
tions:
- If visibility is impaired by snow,
rain,
fog or
heavy road spray.
- In dazzling light, e.g. from the sun or oncom
ing traffic.
-At high speeds.
- If the camera's range of vision
^>Fig.

- If the traffic signs are partially or completely
obscured,
e.g. by trees, snow, mud or other
vehicles.
- If traffic signs deviate from the standard ap
pearance (round with red border).
- If traffic signs are damaged or bent.
- If matrix traffic signs are mounted on overhead
gantries.
- If traffic signs or routes have changed (naviga
tion data out of date).
- If the system detects a speed sticker on a slow-
moving vehicle (such as a heavy goods vehicle).
WARNING
Always direct your full attention to the road
and surroundings, even when you are using
traffic sign recognition. The actual traffic
signs on your route always take precedence
over
the information on the display. It is al
ways the driver's responsibility to assess the
traffic situation and take appropriate care.
- Under adverse conditions, the traffic sign
recognition system may misinterpret or fail
to detect traffic signs. It is therefore possi
ble that the speed limit display may occa
sionally be unavailable or even incorrect.

Rest recommendation
General notes
Applies to: vehicles with rest recommendation
Under certain conditions, the system can detect
that the driver needs to take a break.
At the beginning of a trip, the system monitors
the driver's general steering style. Using this as a
reference, the system continuously compares the
current steering input at speeds of between 60
km/h and 200 km/h. If the evaluation of the
steering input implies a lapse in the driver's
con
centration,
the system will then recommend a
break
^>page
111,
Instrument cluster display.
The rest recommendation function is designed
for journeys on motorways and major roads.
System limitations
The rest recommendation function may misinter
pret the steering input in certain driving situa
tions,
such as the following:
- On twisty roads.
- On rough roads.
- In poor weather.
- During performance driving.
- When the driver's attention is distracted.
Resetting the system
The system is automatically reset if
you...
- switch off the ignition.
- release the driver's seat belt and open the driv
er's door.
- drive slower than 60 km/h for a while. If you
subsequently increase your speed again, the
system will reevaluate the driving style.

WARNING
- Never drive when you are
tired.
As a driver
you are always responsible for ensuring that
you
are
fit to drive.
- On
Long
journeys, make sure to take
quate breaks at regular intervals.

- The ability of the system to detect vehicles in
front is Limited when they are too close, travel
ling out of line, or moving into your lane.
- Vehicles that are not clearly discernible, e.g. a
motorcycle or cyclist travelling in front of you
and vehicles with high ground clearance or a
protruding
load,
are often identified late or are
not detected at all.
-When driving through bends

A WARNING
Please always direct your full attention to the
road,
even when you are using adaptive cruise
control.
It is always the driver who is respon
sible for pulling away safely and maintaining
a safe speed and distance from other vehicles.
The purpose of the adaptive cruise control is
to assist the driver. The driver must always in
tervene manually to avoid an impending
colli
sion.
As the driver you are always responsible
for braking in good time.
- For safety reasons, the adaptive cruise
con
trol must not be used on roads with a lot of
bends or in poor weather or difficult or slip
pery driving conditions (such as ice, fog,
loose grit or gravel, heavy
rain,
etc.) - risk of
accident!
- When you take a turn-off, drive along a mo
torway exit lane or pass through roadwork
sections, please temporarily switch off the
adaptive cruise control system. This is to en
sure that the vehicle does not accelerate to
the cruising speed in such situations.
- The adaptive cruise control system will not
brake the vehicle automatically if
you
rest
your foot on the accelerator pedal. Resting
your foot on the accelerator pedal overrides
the speed and distance control function.
- The adaptive cruise control does not react to
pedestrians, animals or crossing or oncom
ing traffic.
- Reflecting objects, such as crash barriers,
the entrance to a tunnel, heavy rain or ice
can impair the function of the radar sensor.
© CAUTION
Impacts or damage to the bumper, wheel
arches or underbody can cause misalignment
of the sensor. This can impair the effective
ness of the adaptive cruise control. Have the
systems checked by a qualified workshop.

pre sense front
can,
subject to general
system limitations, apply the brakes with in
creasing brake force, in order to slow the vehicle
down and take the impact out of
a
potential
colli
sion.
Automatic braking
Pre sense front can initiate an automatic brake
application at certain speeds just before a
colli
sion:
- At up to 85 km/h if vehicles are stopped.
- At any speed if moving or stopping vehicles are
detected ahead.
- At up to approx. 65 km/h if pedestrians are
crossing15.
Automatic brake pressure increase
If pre sense front detects
that
you are not brak
ing hard enough in the event of an impending
collision,
it will increase the brake pressure, de
pending on the situation and speed:
- At up to 85 km/h if vehicles are stopped.
- At any speed if moving or stopping vehicles are
detected ahead.
WARNING
The protection provided by pre sense front is
still subject to the prevailing physical limits.

brates slightly if
you
cross a lane marking. The vi
bration warning must be activated beforehand on
the infotainment system. The active lane assist is
functional when it detects a demarcation line on
at least one side of the lane in which you are driv
ing.
As the system is designed for driving on motor
ways and other major roads, it is only active

above a speed of about 65 km/h (may vary in dif-

A WARNING
- The system initiates a corrective steering in
put to warn the driver that the vehicle is
about to leave the lane. As the driver you
are always responsible for staying in your
own lane.
- The system can assist you to keep the

driving on its own. Never take your hands
off the steering wheel.
- In certain situations, e.g. during heavy brak
ing,
the system may not correct the steer
ing.
- In certain circumstances, not all of the lane
markings may be detected by the camera. A
corrective steering input can only be
initi

the side in question.
- Variations in the road surface or objects on
the road may be misinterpreted as lane
markings. In this case, the steering may be
corrected unexpectedly or not at all.
- The camera's view might be obstructed, for
example by vehicles travelling in front,
rain,
snow, a lot of water on the
road,
adverse
light
or
dirt on the windscreen. If this hap
