Ass is tance sy stem s
of curves) from the navigation system* . Informa­
tion from the camera-based traffic sign recogni­
tion * is also applied to recognize traffic signs
¢ page 97.
The messages displayed depend on the naviga ­
tion data* being up -to-date and the correct iden­
tification by the traffic sign recognition *.
When adaptive c ruise contro l* is sw itched off,
the predictive efficiency assist only p rovides noti­
fications without controlled interventions. See
¢ page 100, Predictive messages (efficiency as­
sist).
When adaptive cruise contro l* is switched on, the
system responds to upcoming situations auto­ mat ica lly. See

Description
The predictive cont rol 1 l uses the map info rma ­
tion from the navigation system in order to react proactive ly when driving. Information from the
cam era-based traffic sign recognition * is a lso ap ­
plied to recognize traffic
signs ¢ page 97. When
coming up to areas wi th speed limits or changes
in the course of the road (such as curves, inter­
sections or traffic c ircles), the system brakes au ­
tomatically and then accelerates back up to the
set speed .
Overriding control
The driver can override the predict ive control at
a ny time by press ing the accelerator or brake
pedal. If the system changes the vehicle speed to
adapt to speed limits, you ca n cha nge the speed

and on¢ & in De­
scription on page
97.
- Pay attent ion to traffic and the a rea around
your veh icle when pred ictive cont rol is
sw itched on. The driver is always responsi­
ble for assessing the traffic situation.
- There is an increase in the risk of an acci­
dent, because the system does not consider
"right of way" rules and also does not re ­
spond to traffic lights .
- The system only cons iders t raff ic signs that
g ive a speed lim it .
- The permitted speed can be exceeded if the
adaptation to a speed lim it is incorrect . The
d river is responsible for adher ing to the pe r­
mitte d speed .
- The s peed at w hich a curve is dr iven th rough
does not necessarily match your own driving
s tyle. Brake the vehicle yo urself whe n need­

- After switching on t he ignit ion, the system
initially adj usts to a speed of 80 mph
(130 km/h) when driving onto highways
without a speed limit. Then the system ad­
justs to the last speed stored by the driver.
- There is no adaptation to speed limits when
driving thro ugh h ighway interchanges and
when driving on or off the expressway.
- There is no pred ictive control at speed limits
under 20 mph (30 km/h).
- If a speed limit is only detected by the cam ­
era and the actua l speed is significantly
higher, then the speed limit will blink in the
display u ntil you have reached the requ ired
speed

- Incorrect values from the camera-based
traffic s ign recogn ition* or outdated naviga­
tion system map data can lead to incorrect

Audi adaptive cruise control
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi adaptive cruise control
Fig. 99 Detect ion ra nge
The adaptive cru ise cont rol system is a comb ina­
t ion of speed and distance regu lation .
It assists
t h e d river by bo th regu lating the speed and
maintain ing a d istance to the vehicle driv ing
ahead, within the limits of the system.
If the sys­
tem detects a vehicle d riving ahead, the adaptive
cruise contro l can brake and accelerate your vehi ­
cle. T his makes driving more comfortable both
o n long stretches of highway and in stop -and-go
traffic.
What can adapti ve cruise control do?
The adaptive cru ise control system uses video, ra­
dar, ultrasound and navigation data . Vehicles
driv ing ahead can be recognized up to 650 ft
(200 m) away .
Pred ictive functions offer the driver additional
comfort and contr ibute to the reduct ion in fuel
consumption and
CO2 em issions Q page 100. IJIJ,

u co ..... N r-­N .....
~ 0 co
On open roads with no traffic, it functions like a
cruise control syst em . Th e stored spe ed is main­
tained. When approach ing a veh icle driving
ahead, the adaptive c ruise control system auto­
mat ica lly brakes to mat ch that vehicle's speed
and then maintains the set distance . As soon as
the system does not detect a vehicle driving ahead, adaptive cruise contro l accelerates up to
the stored speed.
In stop -and -go traff ic, adaptive cru ise control can
brake unt il the vehicle is stat io nary and then can
also start driving again automatically under cer­
tain
condi tions ¢ page 106.
In traffic jams or stop -and -go traffic, traffic jam
assist can assist the
driver ¢ page 109 .
Which function s can be contr olled ?
When you switch adapt ive cruise control on, you
can set the current speed as the "control speed"
¢ page 104, Swi tching on/off.
When driving, you can stop c ruise contro l
¢ page 107 or change the speed ¢ page 106 at
any time.
You can a lso set the distance to the vehicle driv ­
ing ah ead and s et the driv ing mode of the adap­
tive cruise
control ¢ page 10 7.
General information
Applies to: ve hicles with Audi adaptive cruise co ntro l
Fig. 10 0 Fro nt of the v ehi cle : se nso rs a nd v ideo cam era
The areas w ith the rada r and u ltrasonic sensors
and the video

ing, see ¢ page 344 . The same applies fo r any
modifications made in the front area .
In some dr iving s it u ations, the adaptive c ruise
contro l func tion is restricte d:
- Veh icles can on ly be de tected when they are
w ith in the sensor detection zones
¢ page 102,
fig.

- The system has a limited ability to detect
ve hicles that are a short dis tance ahead, off to
t he side of your ve hicle or movi ng i nto yo ur
lane.
- Ob jects that are d ifficult to detect s uch as mo­
torcycles, veh icles with high gro und clea rance
or an overhanging load are detec ted late or not
detected at all.

A WARNING
Always pay at ten tion to the traffic around you
when adaptive cru ise con trol is switched on .
As the driver, you are still responsible for your
own speed and the d istance to other veh icles.
The adaptive cruise cont rol is used to assist
you. The driver must always take action to
avoid a collision . The driver is always responsi ­
bl e for braking at the correct t ime.
- For safety reasons, do not use adaptive
cr uise control when the road surface is in
poor condi tion and/or in bad weather condi­
tions (such as ice, fog, gravel, heavy rain and
hyd roplani ng) . Using the system under
these co ndi tions i ncrea ses the r is k of an a c­
cide nt.
- Sw itch adaptive cru ise con trol
off tempora­
r ily when dr iv ing in tu rning lanes, on e x­
p re ssway ex its (except if predictive con trol
is switched on) or in construct io n zones .
This prevents the vehicle from acce lerating
to the stored speed w hen in these situa­
tions.
- The adaptive cruise contro l system will not
brake by itself if you put yo ur foot on the ac­
celerator pedal. Doing so can over ride the
speed and d ista nce regulation .
~
103

Assistance systems
-When approaching stationary obstacles
such as stopped traffic, adaptive cruise con­
trol will respond with limited function.
- Adaptive cruise control does not respond to
people, animals, or cross ing or oncoming
objects.
- The function of the radar sensors can be af­
fected by reflective objects such as guard
rails, the entrance to a tunnel, heavy rain or
ice.
(D Note
The sensors can be displaced by impacts or
damage to the bumper, wheel housing and
underbody . Th is can impair the adaptive
cruise control. Have an authorized Audi dealer
or authorized Audi Service Facility check their
function.
