16 Instruments and warning/indicator lights
;;./~ Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
This warning/indicator light monitors the
Electronic Stability Control .
If the D] indicator lamp blinks while driving,
the ESC or ASR (Anti-Slip Regulation) is active­
ly regulating.
If the G] indicator lamp illuminates, the sys­
tem has switched the ESC off. In this case, you
can switch the ignition off and then on to
switch the ESC on again . The system is func­
tioning completely when the indicator lamp
switches off.
If the
I indicator lamp illuminates, the ESC
was switched off with the
I ~ OF F! button.
Stability program and ABS fault! See own­
er's manual
If the J;.j indicator lamp and the llJ ABS indi­
cator lamp illuminate and the driver message
appears, the ABS or electronic differential lock
is malfunctioning. This also interrupts the
ESC. The brakes still function with their nor­
mal power, but ABS is not active .
Drive to your authorized Audi dealer immedi­
ately to have the malfunction corrected.

ii !.!r Safety systems
The I (USA models)/ . (Canada mode ls) in­
dicator light monitors the safety systems e.g.
a ir bags, pretensioners and illuminates for a
few seconds each time you switch the ignition
on .
If the
I (USA models)/ . (Canada models)
indicator light does not go out, or if it illumi­
nates while you are driv ing, or if it starts to
b link , then there is a malfunction somewhere
in the system. If the light does not illuminate
when you switch the ignition on, this also
means there is a malfunction.
A WARNING
If you have a ma lfunction in the safety sys­
tems, contact your authorized Audi dealer
imme diately. Otherwise the safety sys­
tems may not work properly in an acc i­
dent.
¢ Q Turn signals
The indicator light blinks when you use either
turn signal .
Whenever you use the left B or the right B
turn signal, the indicator light blinks. When
you use the emergency flashers, both indica­
tor lights flash.
If one of the turn signal light bulbs burn out,
the turn signal will blink twice as fast as nor­
mal.
This does not apply, however, in towing mode.
The indicator light does not flash if a turn sig­
nal is out on the trailer or the towing vehicle .
Additional information on the turn s ignals

The indicator light also blinks if the turn sig ­
nal is operated when towing a trailer.
The indicator light . blinks when the turn
signal is used, if a trai ler has been proper ly
connected to the vehicle.
If one of the turn signal bulbs on the trailer is
burned out or defective, the indicator light
will not blink when you use the turn signals .
(D Tips
For vehicles with a factory installed towing
hitch or a trailer hitch that was installed
later according to factory spec ifications,
the trailer turn signal assembly is actuat­
ed.

- If the brake warning/indicator light does
not go out after a few seconds and the
par king brake re leased, or lights up while
yo u are driving, the fluid level in the
brake fluid reservo ir is too low . If you be ­
lieve that it is safe to do so, proceed im­
mediately at low speed to the nearest
authorized Audi dealer or qualified repair
facility and have the brake system in­
spected.
- Always keep in m ind that after several
brake applicat ions, you will need greater
pressure on the brake peda l to stop your
vehicle . Do not rely on stra ined brakes to
respond w ith maximum stopp ing power
in critical situations. You must a llow for
increased bra king distances . The extra
distance used up by fading brakes could
lead to an accident .

110 On the road
The parking brake warning light. (USA)/ .
(CON) illuminates when the parking brake is
set and you switch on the ignition.
_& WARNING
-
Always release the parking brake com­
pletely. A partially engaged brake will
overheat the rear brakes, reduce their ef­
fectiveness and cause excessive wear. This could lead to brake failure and an accident .
(D Note
Only after the vehicle has come to com­ plete stop, should you firmly set the park­
ing brake and move the selector lever into
"P".
Parking
To prevent a parked vehicle from rolling
away, there are a few things you should do .
When you park your vehicle, do the
following
• Stop the vehicle using the brake pedal.
• Apply the parking brake firmly .
• Move the selector lever into the
P position
~ &.
• Switch off the engine and remove the igni-
tion key from the ignition lock.
When you park your vehicle on hills, do
the following
• Stop the vehicle using the brake pedal.
• Apply the parking brake firmly.
• If you are parking headed downhill, turn
the front wheels
toward the curb.
• If you are parking headed uphill, turn the
front wheels
away from the curb.
• Move the selector lever into the
P position.
• Switch off the engine and remove the igni­
tion key from the ignition lock.
_& WARNING
This is how you can reduce the risk of in­
jury when leaving your vehicle. -
Never park the vehicle where it can come
in contact with dry grass, spilled fuel or
any other flammable materials.
- When parking on hills, always turn the
wheels so that the front wheels will first
roll into the curb, if the vehicle should
start to roll.
- Never allow anyone - especially small
children - to remain in the vehicle when
it is locked. locked doors make it more
difficult for rescuers to access the pas­
senger compartment in the event of an
emergency. Danger to life!
- Never leave children unsupervised in the
vehicle. Children could release the park­
ing brake or move the gearshift lever out
of gear. The vehicle could start to roll
away and cause an accident.
- No matter what the season is, the tem­
perature in a parked vehicle can reach
dangerous levels.
@ Note
-Please exercise care when you park your
vehicle in parking areas with parking bar­
riers or curbs. Parking barriers and curbs
vary in height and could damage your
bumper and related components as the
front of your vehicle moves over a barrier or curb that is too high, as you park or as
you back out of a parking spot. In order to be sure that no such damage can oc­
cur, you may wish to stop short of having
the front tires of your car touch the park­
ing barrier or curb.
- Please also exercise exceptional care
when you drive up or down steep ramps
or drive over curbs or other obstacles, for
which the vehicle is not designed, be­
cause components of the vehicle close to
the ground, such as bumper covers, spoilers and suspension and exhaust sys­
tem components, may become dam­ aged.

- Turn off the cruise control temporari ly
when entering turn lanes, highway exit
lanes or in construction zones.
- Please note that inadvertent ly "resting"
yo ur foot on the accelerator peda l causes
the cruise control not to brake. Th is is
because the cruise control is overridden
by the driver's accelerat ion .
- Never use the cru ise control when dr iv ing

The cruise control cannot mainta in a con­
stant speed when driving dow nhill. The ve­
hicle will acce le rate under its own we ight.
Downshift to a lower gea r or use the
brakes to slow down.
Changing speed

You can a lso press the accelerato r peda l down
to increase your speed, e.g. if yo u want to
pass someone. The speed you saved earlier
will resume as soon as you release the acceler­
ator pedal.
If, however, you exceed your saved speed by 5 mph (10 km/h) for longer than 5 minutes,
the cruise contro l will turn off temporarily .

brake and take evasive action to avoid
collisions and other accident situations.
- Never allow the closing speed between
you and other vehicles to be so high that
the adaptive cruise control may not be
able to slow your vehicle safely. If clos­
ing speed is too high, you must apply the
brakes yourself to reduce the risk of a
rear-end crash.
- Never rest your foot on the accelerator peda l, especia lly when the adaptive
cruise control is be ing used. Pressu re on
the accelerator w ill override the ACC
braking function and prevent the brakes
from being applied when ACC detects a
situation when the brakes must be ap­
plied.
- Never use adaptive cruise contro l when
you cannot drive safe ly at a steady
speed, including on city streets, on wind­
ing roads or when road conditions are
poor (for example, on ice, gravel, in fog,
heavy rain or on wet roads that increase
the risk of hydroplaning) .
- The radar sensor's
vision can be reduced
by rain, snow and heavy road spray.
T hese and sim ilar condit ions can prevent
vehicles up a head from being accurately
detected and in some cases they may not
be detected at al l. Do not use ACC when
the radar sensors cannot accurately de­
tect vehicles moving ahead of yo u in traf­
fic.
- Always turn off adaptive cruise contro l
when entering turn lanes, exit lanes and
construction zones or in similar situa­
t ions because the vehicle will automati­
cally accelerate to the stored speed when
the road ahead is clear.
- To prevent unintended operation, always
switch ACC off when it is not be ing used.
(D Tips
- For safety reasons, the stored speed is
deleted when the ignition is turned off .
- The E lectronic Stab ility Contro l (ESC) and
the Anti-Slip Regulat ion (ASR) cannot be
deact ivated when the adaptive cruise control is switched on
. If the ESC and the
Anti-Slip Reg ulation (ASR) has been de­
act ivated and you then switch on the
adaptive cru ise contro l, the ESC function
w ill also be act ivated automatically.
- Damage caused by accidents and some m inor collisions can affect the radar sen­
sor settings and cause the system to
ma lf u nction or switch off completely.
- The radar sensor cover is heated. In win­
ter conditions, you should st ill check be­
fore dr iv ing to make su re it is free of ice
and snow. If necessary, clean the a rea
nea r the radar sensor ca refully

- To ensure that the radar sensor is not
bloc ked, foreig n objects (e.g. s tickers,
larger license plate mount s, add -on
par ts) mus t not cover the area near the

How does adaptive cruise control work?
Applies to vehicles : wit h adaptive c ruise contro l
Vehicles traveling ahead are detected with
the aid of a radar sensor .
Fig. 1 27 Bas ic pri ncip le d iag ram : Radar sensor meas ­
urement range
Adaptive cruise control uses a rada r senso r in
t h e front of the vehicle ¢
fig. 12 7. The system
has limitat ions ¢
page 125. Things that are
not moving in your lane and in your direction
of travel will not be detected. The sensor
measures the distance to reflect ive surfaces ..,.

that must have a certain size. The system re­
sponds only after the distance measurement has been made. If a measurement is not pos­
sible, the system cannot respond and w ill not
react to a vehicle or someth ing else up ahead.
Open road
When the road is clear, the adaptive cruise
contro l works like cr uise control. It maintains
a constant target speed specified by the driv­
er.
Driving in traff ic
If a slowe r vehicle driving ahead is detec ted,
the adaptive cruise contro l decelerates (within
the limits of the system)

to its speed and after adjust ing,
tr ies to maintain the set distance from the ve­
h icle ahead. The vehicle may temporarily drive
slower than the set speed while adjust ing
¢ & in Description on page 113 .
If the vehicle in front accelerates, adaptive
cruise control also accelerates up to the speed
that you have set.
If the vehicle ahead slows to a stop, ACC will
slow your vehicle down and to a complete
stop if this is possible w ith in the system's lim ­
its and capabilities . ACC will not make an
emergency stop. The text message
ACC off :
manual c ontrol!
appears in the instr ument
cluster display . Once the veh icle stops, you
must depress the brake pedal to prevent the
vehicle from moving forward or "creeping". Depressing the brake pedal turns
off ACC.
When the veh icle ahead accelerates you can
reactivate ACC
¢ page 118, as soon as your
ve hicle has reached a speed of 1 mph (2 km/
h) .
Situ ation s re quiring dri ver int ervention
In some s ituations you w ill have to use the
footbrake to s low the vehicle down in order to
keep a safe distance from vehicle in front of
you or to avo id a rear-end coll is ion. In this sit­
uation, a symbol appears and a warning tone
sounds
¢ page 124.
Ada pti ve crui se control 115
Passing another vehicle
If you move in to the passing lane and no ve hi­
cle is detected ahead, the adaptive cr uise con­
trol acce le rates to the speed you have set and
maintains it.
Overr iding ACC
You can in cr ease yo ur speed at a ny time by
stepping on the accelera tor ped al. A fter you
release the accelerator peda l, the system ad­
justs back down to the speed you prev ious ly
set .
Reducing stopp ing distance
If the radar sensor detects that the d istance
to the vehicle a head is less than de fined m ini­
mum distance, the brakes are automatically
prepared fo r emergency braking by the driver .
The brake pads are moved very close to the brake d iscs without actually braking the vehi­
cle. This brake assistant feature reacts more
quick ly to the dr ive r's brak ing, and also works
when adapt ive cruise control is off . The stop­
ping distance is reduced as a result of th is ad­
vance brake p reparation . Th is fun ction does
not perform any emergency b rak ing mane u­
vers by itse lf; the dr iver mus t always apply the
brakes.
A WARNING
If ACC initiates a braking maneuver, the brake pedal w ill be retracted. Inter ference
with the brake peda l can prevent ACC from
slowing the veh icle down and cause a
crash and serious personal injury.
- Never put anything in the driver's foot­
well or let anyth ing fall into it. An object
in the driver's footwe ll can interfe re with
the peda ls and prevent the acce le rator
from being used to override ACC or pre­
vent ACC from being switched off when
the brake pedal is depressed and also
prevent the vehicle from being slowed
down or stopped .
- On ly use floor mats that keep the area
around the peda ls free and that can be
securely fastened to the footwell .

page 113.
A WARNING
- Never rely on the distance control fea­
ture of ACC alone to prevent rear-end col­
lisions . Always be prepared to brake and
take evasive action to avoid collisions and other acc ident situations.
- Never allow the clos ing speed between
yo u and other vehicles to be so h igh that
the adaptive c ruise control may not be
able to slow your vehi cle safe ly. If clos ­
ing speed is too high, you m ust app ly the
brakes yourself to reduce the risk of a
rear-end crash.
