Fig. 109 Luggage compartment lid: location of the rear-
view camera
The rearview camera is located above the rear li-
cense plate bracket. Make sure that the lens for
the parking system > fig. 709 is not covered by
deposits or any other obstructions because this
can impair the function of the parking system.
For information on cleaning, see > page 236.
The rearview camera coverage area includes (1)
=> fig. 108. Only this area is shown in the Info-
tainment display. Objects that are in area (2),
which is not covered, are not displayed.

ZA\ WARNING
— Always read and follow the applicable warn-
ings > A\ in Introduction on page 98.
— If the position and the installation angle of
the rearview camera was changed, for exam-
ple after a collision, do not continue to use
the system for safety reasons. Have it
checked by an authorized Audi dealer or au-
thorized Audi Service Facility.
— Only use the rearview camera to assist you if
it shows a good, clear picture. For example,



the image may be affected by the sun shin-
ing into the lens, dirt on the lens, or if there
is a malfunction.
— Use the rearview camera only if the luggage
compartment lid is completely closed. Make
sure any objects you may have mounted on
the luggage compartment lid do not block
the rearview camera.
— The camera lens enlarges and distorts the
field of vision. The object appears both al-
tered and inaccurate on the screen.
—Incertain situations, people or objects in the
display appear closer or farther away:
— For objects that do not touch the ground,
such as the bumper of a parked vehicle, a
trailer hitch or the rear of a truck. Do not
use
the orientation lines in this case.
— If driven from a level surface onto an in-
cline, or a downward slope.
— If driven toward protruding objects.
— If the vehicle is carrying too much load in
the rear.
CG) Note
— Always read and follow the applicable warn-
ings >@ in Introduction on page 98.
— The orange-colored orientation lines in the
Infotainment display show the vehicle path
based on the steering wheel angle. The
front
of the vehicle swings out more than
the rear of the vehicle. Maintain plenty of
distance so that an exterior mirror or a cor-
ner of the vehicle does not collide with any
obstacles.

Intelligent Technology
Electronic Stabilization
Control (ESC)
Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC) supports
driver safety. It reduces the risk of slipping and
improves driving stability. ESC detects critical sit-
uations such as the vehicle oversteering and un-
dersteering or the wheels are spinning. The
brakes are applied or the motor torque is reduced
in order to stabilize the vehicle. When the ESC
engages, the B indicator light flashes in the in-
strument cluster.
The following systems are integrated in the ESC:
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
ABS prevents the wheels from locking when brak-
ing. The vehicle can still be steered even during
hard braking. Apply steady pressure to the brake
pedal. Do not pump the pedal. A pulsing in the
brake pedal indicates that the system is acting to
stabilize the vehicle.
Brake assist
The brake assist system can decrease braking dis-
tance. It increases braking power when the driver
presses the brake pedal quickly in emergency sit-
uations. You must press and hold the brake pedal
until the dangerous situation is over.
Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR)
ASR reduces drive power when the wheels begin
spinning and adapts the power to the road condi-
tions. This will increase the driving stability.
Electronic Differential Lock (EDL)
The EDL applies the brakes to wheels that are
slipping and transfers the drive power to the oth-
er wheels. This function is not available at higher
speeds.
In extreme cases, EDL automatically switches off
to keep the brake on the braked wheel from over-
heating. The vehicle is still functioning correctly.
EDL will switch on again automatically when con-
ditions have returned to normal.
104
Power steering
The ESC can also support vehicle stability
through steering.
Selective wheel torque control
Selective wheel torque control is used when driv-
ing on curves. Braking is targeted toward the
wheels on the inside of the curve as needed. This
allows more precise driving in curves.
Automatic post-collision braking system
The automatic post-collision braking system can
help to reduce the risk of sliding and of addition-
al collisions after an accident. If the airbag con-
trol module detects a collision above a certain ve-
hicle speed, the vehicle is braked by the ESC.
The vehicle does not brake automatically if one of
the following occurs:
— The driver presses the accelerator pedal
—The braking force generated by the pressed
brake pedal is greater than the braking force
that would be initiated by the system
— The ESC, the brake system, or the vehicle elec-
trical system is not functioning

Z\ WARNING
— The ESC and its integrated systems cannot
overcome the limits imposed by natural
physical laws. This is especially important on
slippery or wet roads. If the systems begin
acting to stabilize your vehicle, you should
immediately alter your speed to match the
road and traffic conditions. Do not let the in-
creased safety provided tempt you into tak-
ing risks. This could increase your risk of a
collision.
— Please note the risk of a collision increases
when driving fast, especially through curves
and on slippery or wet roads, and when driv-
ing too close to objects ahead. There is still
a risk of accidents because the ESC and its
integrated systems cannot always prevent
collisions.
— Accelerate carefully when driving on
smooth, slippery surfaces such as ice and
snow. The drive wheels can spin even when
these control systems are installed and this

Intelligent Technology

— Utilize the engine braking effect when driv-
ing downhill by selecting the “S” driving
program > page 82. This reduces the load
on the brakes. If you need to brake addition-
ally, brake in intervals and not continuously.
G) Tips
— If you retrofit your vehicle with a front spoil-
er, wheel covers or similar items, make sure
that the air flow to the brakes is not ob-
structed. Otherwise the brake system can
overheat.
— Also refer to the information about brake
fluid > page 209.

All wheel drive (quattro)
Applies to: vehicles with all wheel drive

The all-wheel drive system distributes the driving
power variably to the front and rear axle to im-
prove the driving characteristics. It works togeth-
er with selective wheel torque control, which can
activate when driving through curves
=> page 104.
The all-wheel drive system is designed for high
motor power. Your vehicle is exceptionally power-
ful and has excellent driving characteristics both
under normal driving conditions and on snow and
ice. Always read and follow safety precautions
>A.

Z\ WARNING
— Even in vehicles with all wheel drive, you
should adapt your driving style to the cur-
rent road and traffic conditions to reduce
the risk of an accident.
— The braking ability of your vehicle is limited
to the traction of the wheels. In this way, it
is not different from a two wheel drive vehi-
cle. Do not drive too fast because this in-
creases the risk of an accident.

108

— Note that on wet streets, the front wheels
can “hydroplane’” if driving at speeds that
are too high. Unlike front wheel drive
vehicles, the motor RPM does not increase
suddenly when the vehicle begins hydro-
planing. Adapt your speed to the road condi-

tions to reduce the risk of an accident.

The rear spoiler increases driving stability. The
rear spoiler extends automatically at speeds
above approximately 75 mph (120 km/h). It will
retract automatically when the speed drops be-
low approximately 50 mph (80 km/h).
You can also extend and retract the rear spoiler
manually.
> Extending: press > briefly.
