Rotate the contro l knob to adjust the displayed bright­
ness of the signal light on the outside mirrors~ fig. 154.
The brightness of the signal light for both the informational and
a lert stages is automatica lly adjusted to ambient light cond itions . In
addition, you can adjust the
basic brightness separately, via the
brightness function :::::, fig. 154 . Whi
le making the adjustment, the new brightness setting is
displayed briefly. The brightness disp layed is that of the informa ­
tiona l stage signal. The alert stage signa l brightness is linked to the
informational stage signal brightness .
The informat iona l stage signal brightness shou ld be adjusted so
that you notice the signal illumination when you look in the outside
m irror, but not when you look forward through the windsh ield .
I n very dark or light surroundings, the automatic brightness setting
adjusts signal light brightness to maximum or minimum intensity,
as needed . In circumstances such as these, you may not notice any
change in the brightness on the outside mirror when adjusting the
basic brightness.
You may not notice the change until lighting conditions are normal
aga in.
[ i ] Tips
• Side assist is not active when the basic brightness is adjusted.
T he signal light comes on briefly to he lp you make the adjustment.
• Your settings are automatically stored and assigned to the
remote contro l key being used .•

General information
Side assist has lim its and cannot detect vehicles under a ll road and
weather conditions. Please remember system limitations and never
rely on the system, especia lly when:
• driving through curves:::::,
page 153,
• lanes are of different widths:::::, page 153. •

Audi sid e as sis t -

Applies to vehicle s: with side assist
When driving through curves
Side assist canno t detect veh ic les in curves with a turning radius of
less than 328 feet (100 m) .
When driving through a curve, it is possible that side assist may register a vehicle two lanes over, and the signal on the outside
mirror will light up .•

Side assist's detection area is designed to cover lanes of standard
width to the left a nd r ight of your trave l lane, depending on whether
you drive in the center of your lane or c loser to the edge.
I f you drive in narrow lanes, side assist's detection area may also
inc lude other lanes - especially if you tend to drive on the edge of
your lane=> fig. 156. Under these conditions, vehicles can a lso be
detected tha t are two lanes away, a nd s ide assist then could switch
between the informationa l and warning stage signa ls.
When driving in very wide lanes, vehicles in the adjacent lane may
not be detected because they are not inside the detection area .•

cluster disp lay:
Audi side a ssist not avail able : s en sors po ssibly blocked
The side assist sensors are built into the rear bumper on the left and
right (not visible on the outside) =>
page 146, fig. 146. To ensu re that
you do not adversely affect the way side assist functions, foreign
objects (such as stickers o r bicyc le racks) should not be attached to
the area on the rear bumper where the sensors are located . If side
assist functi ons are adversely affec ted, you w ill see this message in
the instrument cluster display. Remove anything that may be
b locking the sensors.
I f no vehic le is detected for a longer pe riod of time while driving ,
side assist will also switch off automatically .

Safety tips
The side assis t detec tio n m ay be li mit ed whe n driv ing a round
narrow street corners, on hilly streets, and under poor weather
con ditio ns.
It is possible t hat t he radar sensors may also detect other ob jec ts,
such as high or staggered guardrails .
S id e ass ist does no t measure ac tual lane w idth. The sys te m
assumes a fixed lane width. Detection in the left and r ight lanes is
based on thi s ass umed lane wid th . When d riving on narro w roads or
when driving to the left or right of the center of a travel lan e, it is
possible that vehicles wi ll be detected that are not in the lane next
to th e la ne you are us ing.
& WARNING
• Improper rel iance on the side assist system can cause colli ­
sions and serious personal injury:
-Never rely only on side assist when changing lanes .
- Always check rear view mirrors to make sure that it is safe to
change lane s.
• Side assist cannot detect all vehicles under all conditions ­
danger of accident!
• Side assist cannot detect vehicles in time to alert you when
they approach from behind at very high speed , or fall drop ba ck
very quickly.
• The radar sensor 's
vision can be reduced or entirely bloc ked by
rain , snow , and heavy spray . This can result in side assist not
adequately dete cting vehi cles or , in some cases , not dete cting
& WARNING (continued)
them at all . Always keep an eye on the direction you are traveling
and the relevant area around the vehicle .
• Please note that side assist ind icates there are approaching
vehicle s, or vehicles in you r blind spot, only after your vehicle has
reached a driving speed of at least 19 mph 130 km /h).
• Side as sist signal does not work around tight corners (turning
radius less than 328 feet , or 100 m) .
• Side assist is no replacement for the driver's full attention. The
driver alone is responsible for lane changes and similar driving
maneuvers . Always keep an eye on the direction you are traveling
and the relevant area around the vehicle .
0 Note
To ensure that side assist is not adve rsely affected, you shou ld not
b loc k the area o n th e r ea r bu mpe r w her e th e radar senso rs a re

[ i ] Tips
If the posit ions of the radar sensors have been changed as a result
o f a rear e nd-c ollision, for insta nce, have si de ass is t che cked by an
authorized Audi dea ler for safety reasons .•

Please note that low objects already signalled by a warning can
disappear fro m the system 's detectio n range and wil l n ot con tinu e
to be signa lled .
If the distance to an obstacle remains the same, the vo lume of the
d istance wa rni ng i s gradually reduced after a bout 4 seconds .
Approaching another obstacle wi ll result in the distance warning
sound ing at the nor mal vo lume agai n.
Malfunctions in the system
If a warnin g tone is audible for about five seconds when you turn on
the ignition, there is a ma lfunction in the system. Have the prob lem
corrected by y our aut horiz ed Aud i dealer .
Keep the sensors in the rear bumper c lean and free from ice so that
t he acoustic park ass is t sy ste m can f unction pro per ly .
& WARNING
• Sensors have dead spaces in which objects cannot be
detected . Be e specially alert for small children and animals , since
they are not always detected by the sensors.
• The Acoustic Parking System is not a substitute for the dr iver's
own caution and alertne ss. Ultimate respon sibility always
remains with the driver during parking and similar maneuvers .
Always watch where you are driving .
• You should always adjust the volume and frequen cy of the
chimes so that you can easily hear the acoustic distance warning
even if the radio is playing , the air-condit ioner blower is on High or
there i s a high level of out side noise .
- Check the settings whenever anyone else has driven the
vehicle before you.
0 Note
• Reme mber that l ow obstacles for wh ic h a warn ing has already
been issued may "dive" below the system's sensing zone if the
v e h icl e is be ing backed u p closer. In this cas e, th e wa rning so und shutting off does
not indicate that you have c
leared the obstacle .
In stea d, impact is im min ent.
• Objects such as trai ler hitches, chains, narrow posts or fences
cov ered by a t hin lay er of p ain t may no t always be dete cte d by t he

-Audi Parking System -------=-=---------------
-
Switch the ignition off, the entire acoustic parking
system is automatically deactivated.
The rear-view camera will deactivate automatically when you shift
into a forward gear and drive faster than about 9 mph (15 km/h) .
The delay in deactivating the camera provides an uninterrupted
view behind the vehicle especially when maneuvering in tight parking spaces and prevents the picture from turning off the every
time you shift out of reverse.
The vehicle -obstacle distance at which the sensors start to measure
is
about:
To the side 2 ft (0.60 m)
Center rear 5.2 ft (1.60 ml
Backing up
Distance notification when backing up starts when an obstacle is
detected that is within range of the Audi Parking System. As the
distance decreases, the time between the chimes gets shorter .
When the distance is less than
1 ft (0.30 m), the chime becomes a
continuous tone. Here, at the latest, you should stop backing up.
Please note that low objects already signaled by Audi Parking
System can become so close that they can no longer be detected
and will not continue to be signaled .
If the distance to an obstacle stays the same, the volume of the
distance signal chime is gradually reduced after about
4 seconds
(does not affect the continuous signal tone). Approaching another
obstacle will cause the distance signal to sound again at the normal
volume.
Distance signal tones
Distance is signaled by chimes from the rear signal generator. The
volume and the pitch of the chimes can be adjusted in the MMI
=>
page 180.
Rear-view camera (rear view)
The rear -view camera picture ~ page 175, fig. 179 appears in the
MMI Display as a mirror image . The rear-view camera picture has
orientation lines and marked surfaces projected into it, as an aid to
the parking process=>
page 173. The red line in the picture
=>
page 173, fig. 175 or=> page 173, fig. 176 indicates the collision
area . Here , at the latest, you should stop backing up~&.
If the warning message appears in the display but not the rear-view
camera picture, read and confirm the warning message. The
acoustic distance signal is always active.
If you press a function button on the MMI terminal, the rear -view
camera picture disappears. The rear-view camera picture reappears
the next time you park.
When the rear -view camera picture is displayed, you can adjust the
volume and frequency of the acoustic parking via the control button
with the
Settings function ~ page 181.
Further information on the warning message and the MMI terminal
can be found in the MMI instruction booklet.
& WARNING
• Sensors have blind spots in which objects cannot be detected.
Be especially careful to check for small children and animals
before backing up. Small children and animals will not always be
detected by the sensors.
• The Audi Parking System is not a substitute for being careful
and alert when backing up. Be especially careful during parking
and similar maneuvers. Always watch where you are driving and
make sure that nothing is in the way.
• Remember that low obstacles which have already been
signaled may pass below the system's sensing zone when the
vehicle is backing up. The fact that the signal stops does not mean
that you have cleared the obstacle. When the signal stops, impact is imminent . Objects such as trailer hitches, chains, narrow posts
or fences covered by a thin layer of paint may not always be

When the turn signal is switched on, only the necessary surfaces
and curves are shown. To change the side that is shown, simply
change the turn signal.
The displayed light blue® or dark blue © curved line identifies the
turn-around point when maneuvering to park. If the curved line
touches the curb, the steering wheel turn -around point has been
reached =>
page 177, fig. 182.
The distance from the rear bumper © to the red line@ is approxi­
mately
1.3 ft (40 cm). Here, at the latest, you should stop backing up
=>
page 179.
& WARNING
Please note that objects not touching the ground can appear to be
further away than they really are (for example, the bumper of a parked vehicle, a trailer hitch, or the rear of a truck).
In this case,
you should not use the guide help lines to measure distance -
danger of accident!
0 Note
In the MMI Display, the direction of travel of the vehicle rear is repre­
sented depending on the steering wheel angle. The vehicle front
swings out more than the vehicle rear .
[ i] Tips
• In order for the rear-view camera to function properly, the
camera lens=>
page 171, fig. 174 must be kept clean, and free of
snow and ice. Please follow the additional notes on=>
page 182.
• The positions of the orientation lines/ surfaces are displaced up
or down if the parking process is carried out with the rear-view
camera in Adaptive Air Suspension*=>
page 20 dynamic, off -road,
or lift mode. Therefore, the accuracy is reduced. •
Special parking situations
Applies to vehicles : with Audi Parkin g System (rea r) and rear-view camera
Parking next to obstacles
When parking next to an obstacle, enough distance must
left on the side.
=
Fig. 183 Top view:
Parking next
to a brick
wall
With "parking mode 2", you can park very closely to a sidewalk curb
with your vehicle=>
page 173, fig. 176.
However, when parking next to an obstacle, such as a brick wall, a
larger side distance must be selected in order to prevent collision
damage to the vehicle. Position the long side of the marked blue
surface so that there is enough distance from the curb; the surface
must not touch the curb=> fig.
183 .
Also, the turning process has to occur considerably sooner. This
means that the corresponding blue curved line=>
page 177, fig. 182
must not touch the curb, but should rather be at a distance far
enough from the curb=>&.
& WARNING
• Keep plenty of distance from an obstacle, so that your outside
mirror or a corner of your vehicle does not collide with any obsta-
cles -danger of accident! ..

-Child Safety -----<------------------------------
restraints and for the different models of the same kind of child
restraint offered by child restraint manufacturers.
The weight ranges for the individual types, makes and models of
child restraints that the NHTSA has specified in the Safety Standard
together with the weight ranges of typical infants and typical 1 year­ old child have been stored in the control unit of the Advanced
Airbag System. When a child restraint is being used on the front passenger seat with a typical 1 year-old child, the Advanced Airbag
System compares the weight measured by the weight sensing mat
with the information stored in the electronic control unit.
The electronic control unit also registers the tension on the front
passenger safety belt. The tension on the safety belt for the front
passenger seat will be different for an adult who is properly using
the safety belt as compared to the tension on the belt when it is
used to attach a child restraint to the seat. The sensor below the
latch for the safety belt for the front seat passenger measures the
tension on the belt . Th e input from this sensor is then used with the
weight to "decide" , whether there is a chi ld restraint with a typica l 1
year-old child on the front passenger seat and whether or not the
airbag must be turned off.•
Child restraints and Advanced Airbags
Regard less of the child restraint that you use, make sure that it has
been certified to meet United States Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards and has been certified by its manufacturer for use with
an airbag. Always be sure that the child restraint is properly
installed at one of the rear seating positions. If in exceptional
circumstances you must use it on the front passenger seat, carefully read all of the information on child safety and Advanced Airbags
and heed all of the applicable WARNINGS. Make certain that the
child restraint is correctly recognized by the weight -sensing mat
inside the front passenger seat, that the front passenger airbag is
turned off and that the airbag status is always correctly signaled by
the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light . Many
types and models of child restraints have been available over
the years, new mode ls are introduced regularly incorporating new
and improved designs and older models are taken out of produc­
tion. Child restraints are not standardized. Child restraints of the
same type typically have different weights and sizes and different
'footprints,' the size and shape of the bottom of the child restraint
that sits on the seat, when they are installed on a vehicle seat. These
differences make it virtually impossible to certify compliance with
the requirements for advanced airbags with each and every child
restraint that has ever been sold in the past or will be sold over the
course of the usefu l life of your vehicle.
For this reason, the United States National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration has pub lished a list of specific type, makes and
models of child restraints that must be used to certify compliance
of the Advanced Airbag System in your vehicle with the suppression
requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208. These
child restraints are:
A. Car beds, manufactured on or after September 1,
2004:
• Cosco Dream Ride 02-719
B. Rear facing child restraint systems, manufactured
on or after September 1, 2004:
(When the restraint system comes equipped with a removable base,
compliance has to be certified with or without the basel.
• Britax Handle with Care 191
• Century Assura 4553
• Century Smart Fit 4543
• Cosco Arriva 02727
• Evenflo Discovery Adjust Right 212
• Evenflo First Choice 204
• Graco Infant 8457

The direction in which the driver wishes to travel is determined with
t he aid of the steering angle and vehicle speed and is continua lly
compared with the actual behavior of the vehicle. If the two do not
match, for example, when the vehic le starts hydrop laning on a wet
road, ESP will automatically brake the appropriate whee l to correct
the prob lem.
The vehicle is then stab ilized by the forces acting on the whee l
during braking. If the vehicle is
oversteering (rear tends to skid out
of the turn), the brakes are mainly app lied on the wheel that is on
the outside of the curve. In the case of a vehicle that is
understeering
(tendency to sl ide out of the curve), the brakes are applied at the
rear wheel that is on the inside of the curve . An acoustic signal indi­
cates when ESP brake application cuts in
~ & .
The system operates across the entire speed range in combination
with the ABS system
~ page 266 . If the Anti -Lock Brake System
(ABS) malfunctions, the ESP wi ll be out of action as well.
Ac tivat ing
When you turn on the eng ine, ESP will automatically be activated
and will perform a se lf -test . As soon as the test is comp leted, the
system is in norma l operating mode.
You can activate a deactivated ESP or deactivated ESP/ASR if required by pressing the~
page 262, fig. 232 button . When they are
activated, the message
E S P/AS R on appears briefly in the display.
D eactiv ating
The ESP should normally be activated al l the time . If necessary, you
can deactivate An ti- Slip Regulation (ASR) or the E lectronic Stabiliza ­
