Driver assistance

As soon as the vehicle comes to a full stop, the
vehicle prepares for the vehicle passengers to be
rescued. The parking brake is set, “P” gear is en-
gaged, the doors are unlocked, and the interior
lighting is activated. The emergency call» will be
started if necessary once the vehicle has been
stationary
for several seconds.
Display
If /S\ is displayed for example, the emergency
assist is active.
Overriding the emergency assist
You can override emergency assist as follows
>A:
— Move the steering wheel. Or
— Press the brake pedal. Or
— Press the accelerator pedal distinctly.
When stationary, you can end the emergency as-
sist by leaving the "P" position or releasing the
parking brake > page 108.
Switching the emergency assist on and off
The system can be switched on and off in the
MMI > page 126.
Messages
a | or & is displayed when there is a malfunc-
tion, the emergency assist functions may be un-
available 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 area in front of the
sensors > page 125 and try to turn the system 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.


AN WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 123.
— The emergency assist is an assist system
that should only be used in cases of emer-
gency to take over control of the vehicle and
bring it to a stop.


) This function is not available in every market and on all ve-
hicle equipment levels.
160
(i) Tips
— Depending on the severity of the detected
situation, not all safety measures will be ini-
tiated. Certain functions can be adjusted or
skipped if necessary.
— If the emergency assist was triggered, it will
only be available again after a brief period.

Parking and maneuvering


— Park assist plus is an assist system. The driv-
er is still responsible for monitoring the ve-
hicle's surroundings and preventing colli-
sions when using the system.
— When using park assist plus to drive into or
out of a parking space, the steering wheel
turns quickly on its own. Reaching into the
steering wheel spokes while this is happen-
ing can result in injury.
— 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.

@) Tips
— You can reduce the speed specified by the
system at any time by pressing the brake
pedal.
— The system can incorrectly interpret parking
space barriers (such as parking curbs). Take
over the parking process = page 175 if the
vehicle is not completely inside the parking
space or if the vehicle tries to drive over the
parking space barrier.
— The image in the display is an enlarged and
distorted image. Under certain circumstan-
ces, objects may appear different and un-
clear on the display. This is especially true if
there are objects that do not touch the
ground, such as the bumper of a parked ve-
hicle or the rear of a truck. Drive with spe-
cial care and do not use the image if neces-
sary.
— Applies to vehicles with air suspension: The
accuracy of the orientation lines and green
surfaces in the display decreases when the
vehicle is raised or lowered with the air sus-
pension.

ket.

Pause park assist plus > page 175.

Z\ WARNING
— Observe the safety precautions and note the
limits of the assist systems, sensors, and
cameras > page 123.
— Press and hold the [>>P] button only if you
are sure that there are no obstacles in the
vehicle's path or under the vehicle, and that
no obstacles will move into the vehicle's
path. >

Parking and maneuvering

@) Tips
— When parking in garages, you can be
straight in front of the garage or at a slight
angle in front of the garage. You will have
the best results when you align and stop
your vehicle as straight as possible in front
of the garage.
— If there is enough space in a two-car garage,
the system automatically selects the park-
ing position in front of the vehicle that the
driver has selected.

cannot be more than approximately 20 feet
(6 m) away from the vehicle.
> Pay attention to the path of the vehicle. In un-
clear situations, pause the parking process us-
ing the mobile device. For example, this may be
necessary if an obstacle appears or the vehicle
comes very close to an obstacle.
> To resume the parking process, start it again on
the mobile device. The rest of the parking proc-
ess will be recalculated based on the vehicle po-
sition.
End of the parking process
If an obstacle appears, stop the parking process
=> page 180.
The parking process will end automatically once
the vehicle has reached the end point in the park-
ing space. Once parking is successfully complet-
ed, the parking lock will be engaged, the parking
brake will be set, and the engine will switch off.
The vehicle will also be locked.

— Failing to pay careful attention to the vehi-
cle's surroundings increases the risk of an
accident. Park your vehicle with the mobile
device only if you are sure that no obstacle is
in the vehicle's path or under the vehicle,
and that no obstacles will move into the ve-
hicle's path.

G) Tips
— If the parking space is located in a garage, it
must be detected correctly by the vehicle.
When the parking space is detected com-
pletely, the edges of the space will be high-
lighted @).
— The parking process can only be started if
the vehicle key is located outside the vehicle
after the vehicle is prepared. Always keep
both the vehicle key and the mobile device
with you during the entire remote control-
led parking process.
— Remote controlled parking may be restrict-
ed or unavailable in situations such as the
following:
— If the ESC is restricted or switched off, or
if there is a malfunction.
— If there is another vehicle key inside the
vehicle or nearby.
— The system can incorrectly interpret parking
space barriers (such as parking curbs). Take

Fig. 138 Upper display: maneuver assist
General information
The maneuver assist supports the driver when
maneuvering and parking by monitoring the area
in front of, behind, and beside the vehicle using
sensors. If there is an impending collision with an
object, the system will intervene within its limits
and attempt to prevent the collision by applying
the brakes. The system will detect objects that
are approximately 8 inches (20 cm) high or high-
er.
Display overview
The displays @ - @ indicate the status and avail-
ability of the maneuver assist.
@ The white border indicates the availability in
this area.
The red border indicates an object nearby.
