c::> page 236, Working in the engine com­
partment before opening the hood and
checking the brake

-
If the brake system indicator light does not
turn off or it turns on while driving, the
brake fluid level in the reservoir is too low,
and
this increases the risk of an accident.

swerve, which increases the risk that the ve­
hicle
will slide. Drive carefully to the nearest
authorized Audi dealer
or authorized Audi

Automatic dynamic headlight range control
system*
Your vehicle is equipped with a headlight range
control system
so that the headlights do not
blind oncoming traffic if the vehicle load
changes. The headlight range also
adjusts auto­
matically when braking and accelerating .
Light functions
The following light functions are available de­
pending on vehicle equipment and only function
when the
light switch is in the AUTO position.
You can deactivate these functions in the Info­
tainment system under Audi adaptive light
Qpage 37.
Static cornering light* (vehicles with LED head­
lights) -the cornering light switches on automat­
ically when the steeri ng wheel is turned at acer­
tain angle at speeds up to approximately 44 mph
(70 km/h) and when the turn signal is activated
at speeds up to approxim ately 25 mph (40 km/
h). The area
to the side of the vehicle is illuminat­
ed better when turning.
Highway light function* (vehicles with LED head­
lights) -this function adapts the lighting for
highwa y driving based on vehicle speed.
Speed dependent light distribution* (vehicles
with LED headlights) -the speed dependent light
distribution adapts the light in towns and on
highways
or expressways. Intersections can also
be illuminated on vehicles
with a navigation sys­
tem*.
A WARNING
- Automatic headlights * are only intended to
assist the driver. They do not reliev e the
driver
of responsibility to check the head­
lights and to turn them on manually accord­
ing to the current ligh t and visibility condi­
tions. For example, fog cannot be detected
by
the light sensors . So always switch on the
low beam under these weather conditions
and when
driving in the dark ~D.
-If the battery is dra ining significantly, the
parking lights will switch off automatically
to reduce the risk of the engine not starting . ..,..

Your vehicle is equipped with an electromechani­
cal parking brake. T
he parking brake is designed
to prevent the vehicle from rolling unintentional­
ly and replaces the hand brake.
In addition to the normal functions of a tradi­
tional hand brake, the electromechanical parking
brake provides various convenience
and safety
functions .
Driving
When starting from rest
-The integral hill start assist helps you when
driving by automatically releasing the parking
brake¢ page 62, Starting from a stop.
-When starting on inclines, the hill start assist
prevents the veh icle from un intentionally roll­
ing back . The braking force
of the parking brake
is
not re leased unti l sufficient driving force has
been built up at the wheels.
Emergen cy brake function
An emergency braking fu nction ensures that the
vehicle can be slowed down even if the normal
brakes fail¢ page 62, Emergency braking
functi on.
Indicator lights

tently if the vehicle is stationary but the en­
gine is ru nning and a gear is selected. Oth­
erwise the vehicle will start to move imme­
diately and co uld result in a crash.

If the power supply fails, the released park­
ing brake
can no longer engage. In this
case, park t he vehicle on level ground and
secure it by plac ing the selector l eve r in the
P position. See an authorized Audi deale r o r
authorized A udi Service Facil ity for assis­
tance.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Driving
-If driver's door is opened while the ignition
is
switched on, the parking brake sets auto­
matically. This prevents unintended rolling
of the vehicle.
- Occasional noises
when the parking brake is
applied
and released are normal and are not
a cause for concern.
-
When the vehicle is parked, the parking
brake goes through a self-test cycle at regu­
lar intervals. Any noises associated with this
are normal.
-If the. (USA models) I. (Cana-
da models) indicator lights or llJ indicator
lig ht
turn on, there could be a malfunction
in the park ing brake ~page 11.
-If there is a power failure, the parking brake
will not set if it is released, and it will not
release if it is set~.&.. See an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Fa­
cility for
assistance.
Parking
.... Press the brake pedal to stop the vehicle.
.... Pull the switch~ to set the parking brake .
.... Place the selector lever in the P position.
.... Turn the engine off~,&.
.... Turn the steering wheel when parking on in­
clines
so that the wheels will roll into the curb
if the vehicle starts moving .
A WARNING
-Always take the vehicle key with you when
leaving the vehicle, even for a short period
of time. This applies particularly when chi l­
dren remai n in the vehicle. Otherwise the
children could start the engine, release the
parking brake or operate electrical equip­
ment (e.g. power windows). There is the risk
of an accident.
-
When the vehicle is locked, no one -particu­
larly
not children should remain in the vehi­
cle. Locked
doors make it more difficult for
emergency workers to get into the vehicle,
which
puts lives at risk.
62
Starting from a stop
The start assist function ensures that the park­
ing brake
is released automatically upon start­
mg.
