driving by automatically releasing the parking
brake ¢
page 80 , Starting from a stop.
- When starting on inclines, the hill start assist
prevents the vehicle from unintentionally roll ­
ing back. The braking force of the parking brake
is not r eleased until sufficient driving forc e has
b ee n built up at the wh eels.
Emergency brake function
An emergency braking functions ensures that the

tion.
A WARNING
- Do not press the accelerator pedal inadver­
tently if the vehicle is stationary but the en­ gine is running and a gear is selected . Other­
wise the vehicle will start to move immedi ­
ately and could result in a crash.
-If the power supply fails, the released park­
ing brake can no longer engage. In this case,

Automatic transmi ssion
Automatic transmission
S tronic
Introduction
Applies to veh icles: w ith S tro nic transmiss ion
Your vehicle is equ ipped w ith an electronically­
contro lled DSG transmission ca lled S tronic. Two
independent clutches transfer the power be­
tween the eng ine and t ransmission. It a llows the
vehicle to accelerate without a noticeable inter ­
ruption in tract ion .
The transmission upshifts or downsh ifts auto­
matica lly. The driv ing style contin uously influen­
ces the se lection of the driving program .
When a
mod era te driving style is used, the
transmiss ion se lects the mos t econom ica l driving
mode. The transmission upsh ifts at a lower RPM
and downshifts at a higher RPM to improve fuel
efficiency .
The transmission swit ches to a sporty mode after
a kick-down or when the driver uses a
s po rty driv­
ing sty le
characterized by quick accelerator pedal
movements, heavy acceleration, frequent
changes in speed and t raveling at the maximum
speed.
If desired, the drive r can a lso se lect the gears
manually ( tiptronic mode) ¢ page 87, Shift ing

Audi adaptive cruise control
Description
Applies to veh icles: w ith Audi adaptive cruise control
F ig. 80 Det ect ion rang e
The adaptive cruise control system is a combina­
tion of speed and distance reg ulation . It assists
the driver by bot h reg ulating the speed and
maintaining a distance to the object ahead, w ith -
96
in the abilities o f the system. If the system de­
tects an object, adaptive cruise control can brake
and acce lerate your veh icle . This makes driving
more comfortab le both on long stretches of
highway and in stop-and-go traffic.
What can adaptive crui se con trol do?
The adaptive cruise contro l system uses radar
and a video camera. The radar is subject to desig ­
nated system limits
q page 97.
On open roads with no traffic, it funct ions like a
cruise control system . The stored speed is main­
tained. When approaching an object ahead and
the system detects it, the adapt ive cruise control
system automatically brakes to match that ob­
ject's speed and then maintains the stored dis­
tance. As soon as the system does not detect an object ahead, adapt ive cr uise control accelerates
up to the sto red speed .
Within the limits of the system, adaptive cruise
control can brake in stop -and -go traffic until the
vehicle is stat iona ry and then beg in driving again
under certain cond itions
q page 100, Driving in
stop-and-go traff ic.
Which functions can be controlled?
When you swi tch adapt ive cru ise control on, you
can set the current speed as the "control speed"
q page 98, Switching on/off .
When driving, yo u can stop cruise contro l
q page 100 or change the speed q page 100 at
any time .
You can also adjust the following sett ings:
- Distance

- Always fo llow applicable traffic laws, use
common sense and select a distance to
vehicles ahead that takes the current traffic, road and weathe r cond itions into account.

-Please note that the sensor does not always
detect all objects. This increases the risk of a
collision.
- Pre sense front does not react to people or
animals or objects that are crossing the ve­
hicle's path or are difficult to detect
¢ page 97.
-Reflective objects such as guard rails or the
entrance to a tunnel, heavy rain and ice can
affect the funct ion of the radar sensor and
the system's ability to detect a collision risk .
- Lack of attention can lead to collisions, oth­
er accidents and serious injuries. pre sense
front is an assistance system and cannot
prevent a collision by itself. The driver must
always intervene . The driver is always re­
sponsible for braking at the right time.
- Always pay attention to traffic, even when
pre sense front is switched on . Always be
ready to intervene and take over complete
control of the vehicle whenever it is neces­
sary. Always follow traffic laws regarding
maintaining a safe distance between your
vehicle and vehicles ahead.
- pre sense front works within certain limits
and cannot react to situations that are out­
side of the system limits, such as when ap­
proaching a stationary vehicle or a station­
ary obstacle (the end of a traffic jam or ave­
hicle that has broken down).
- Always keep in m ind that the radar sensor
for pre sense front only works w ith in de­
fined detection zones, which means other
vehicles may not always be detected correct­
ly.
- The function and range of the radar sensor
can be impaired by rain, snow and heavy
mist. Vehicles ahead may not be detected
right away, or not detected at a ll.
- Reflective surfaces such as guard rails or en­
trances to tunnels may impair the function
of the radar sensor.
(D Note
The sensor can be disp laced by impacts or
damage to the bumper, whee l hous ing and
underbody. The pre sense front sensor can be
damaged by this . Have an authorized Audi
Assist
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility
check their function.
(D Tips
- You can cancel the braking with increasing
force that is initiated by the system by brak ­
ing yourself, by acce lerating noticeably or by
swerving .
- For information on driver messages about
pre sense, refer to ¢
page 106.
- Keep in mind that pre sense front can brake
unexpectedly. Always secure any cargo or
objects that you are transporting to reduce
the risk of damage or injury .
- Certain pre sense front functions switch
off
when ESC is switched off (sport mode) or
when driving in reverse.
- The pre sense front functions are not availa­
ble if there is a malfunction in the adaptive
cruise control* system
¢page 102 or

-Keep in mind that pre sense front can brake
abruptly. Always secure cargo or objects
that you transport to reduce the risk of
damage or injury .
