Parking and maneuvering


AN WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— The Surroundings view is created from the
individual camera images. The vehicle image
is shown by the system. Objects and obsta-
cles above the camera are not displayed.

@® Note
— Only use the images provided by the camera
on the rear of the vehicle when the luggage
compartment lid is completely closed. Make
sure any objects you may have mounted on
the luggage compartment lid do not block
the rearview camera.
— The front of the vehicle swings out more
than the rear of the vehicle. Maintain plenty
of distance so that an exterior mirror ora
corner of the vehicle does not collide with
any obstacles.
6 Tips
— Depending on the selected gear, it will auto-
matically switch between the Front and
Rear views. If you switch the view manually,
the automatic front/rear camera change will
be temporarily deactivated.
— When first activated while a forward gear is
engaged, the Front corner is displayed.

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. 113. 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 display @ appears only when the
parking system is active. In vehicles with pe-
ripheral cameras, the display appears in the
Rear and Rear corner camera views. Arrows
show the direction from which the cross traffic
is approaching.
— Audible warnings: a continuous tone may
sound as an additional warning when driving in
reverse.
— 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: VE-
HICLE > Parking aid > Rear cross-traffic assist.
— Select |: > Rear cross-traffic assist in the cen-
ter display when the parking system is active.

Messages
if 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 systems on again
later.
If the malfunction remains, drive to an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty immediately to have the malfunction correct-
ed.

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— 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 or diagonally
parked or if your vehicle is pulled too far in-
to the parking space so that it is hidden by
adjacent vehicles.

@ Tips
— Once an automatic brake activation occurs,
the system cannot brake automatically
again 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 system may not warn you of detected
obstacles 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 259.

are diagrams and do not represent a true-
to-scale image of the sensor ranges.
Assisted parking
General information
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
If your vehicle is equipped with park assist, this
system helps you find suitable parking spaces.
Parking spaces are measured using ultrasonic
sensors on the sides of the vehicle.
If a parking space is found, the system helps you
to park while the driver monitors the vehicle's
surroundings with the parking aids, cameras”,
and direct eye contact. The vehicle moves the
steering wheel autonomously.

ZA\ WARNING
Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.

Parking and maneuvering

be displayed. The system automatically suggests
a parking option @.
If the parking space allows different parking op-
tions, they can be selected manually. Press one of
the suggested parking options (@ in the center
display.
Starting the parking process
As soon as the vehicle has reached the correct po-
sition, a P will appear in the center display above
the selected parking space @). The roof in the
parking system display @) may show the required
braking or driving direction.
> Keep the vehicle as parallel as possible to the
parked vehicles or to the side of the road.
> Make sure that the parking space is suitable for
your vehicle >@).
Start parking using the park assist > page 137.
Maneuvering area
The vehicle can go off course during the parking
process
> A\. If there are obstacles within the
maneuvering area that block or endanger the
parking process, for example on the opposite
side of the street, a message may appear. You
may need to drive farther forward and stay closer
to the row of parking spaces.

ZA WARNING
— Follow the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 105.
— The driver is always responsible when enter-
ing or exiting a parking space and during
similar maneuvers.
— Sensors and cameras have spots in which
the surrounding area cannot be detected.
Objects, animals, and people may only be
detected with limitations may not be detect-
ed at all. Always monitor the traffic and the
vehicle's surroundings directly and do not

become distracted.

@) Note
— Parking spaces classified as suitable by the
system may have been detected incorrectly.
136
The driver must decide if the parking space
displayed is suitable for the vehicle.
— Certain conditions near the parking space
may cause the parking process to fail, such
as if the parking space is near trees or posts,
or if the ground is covered, for example,
with gravel, snow, or ice.
(i) Tips
— If you did not drive past a suitable parking
space too quickly, the system can also be ac-
tivated afterwards by pressing P@ in the cen-
ter display.
— The Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC)
must not be switched off during the parking
process. If the ESC intervenes, the parking
process will be canceled.
— You can also drive into a perpendicular park-
ing space yourself and then activate the sys-
tem. If this is the case, the front of the vehi-
cle should already be in the space @)
=> page 135, fig. 115 so that the sensors
can measure the space.
— You cannot park with the parking assist sys-
tems when you are towing a trailer or have
the connector inserted in the trailer socket.
— The system is not available when certain as-
sist systems are switched on.
—If there are suitable parking spaces on both
sides of the street, for example on a one-
way street, you can change the side where
the system is searching for parking spaces
by activating the turn signal for the other
side or by pressing on that side in the center
display.
— The park systems do not provide support for
assisted parking on tight curves.
Park assist
General information
Applies to: vehicles with park assist
The park assist helps you when parking and exit-
ing parking spaces after the parking space
search. The park assist takes over the steering of
the vehicle while the driver accelerates, brakes,
and monitors the vehicle's surroundings. Park as-
sist can be interrupted at any time.
