Audi active Lane assist
(Lane departure warning
feature)
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi active lane assist
The active lane assist uses a camera in the wind­
screen to detect lane markings (subject to gener­
al system limitations). If you approach one of the
detected lane markings, the system corrects the
steering to warn you that the vehicle might be
about to cross one of the markings. You can over­
ride this steering input at any time. The steering
wheel vibrates slightly if you cross a lane mark­
ing. The vibration warning must be activated be­
forehand on the infotainment system. The active
lane assist is functional when it detects a demar­
cation line on at least one side of the lane in
which you are driving.
As the system is designed for driving on motor­
ways and other major roads, it is only active
above a speed of about 65 km/h (may vary in dif­
ferent export markets).
Applies to vehicles with side assist*: If you oper­
ate the turn signals while the active lane assist
and side assist are active, the steering will be cor­
rected just before you cross the lane demarcation
if the side assist detects vehicles approaching
quickly or travelling at about the same speed as
your own vehicle and judges the situation to be
critical. This intervention is intended to keep the
vehicle in the lane.
Applies to vehicles without side assist*: The sys­
tem does not warn you if you operate the turn
signal before crossing a lane demarcation. In this
case, it assumes that you intend to change lanes.
A WARNING
- The system initiates a corrective steering in­
put to warn the driver that the vehicle is
about to leave the lane. As the driver you
are always responsible for staying in your
own lane.
l l
The steering input function is not available on all export
versions.
92 -
The system can assist you to keep the vehi­
cle in the lane, however it is not capable of
driving on its own. Never take your hands
off the steering wheel.
- In certain situations, e.g. during heavy brak­
ing, the system may not correct the steer­
ing.
- In certain circumstances, not all of the lane
markings may be detected by the camera. A
corrective steering input can only be initi­
ated if the system detects a lane marking on
the side in question.
- Variations in the road surface or objects on
the road may be misinterpreted as lane
markings. In this case, the steering may be
corrected unexpectedly or not at all.
- The camera's view might be obstructed, for
example by vehicles travelling in front, rain,
snow, a lot of water on the road, adverse
light or dirt on the windscreen. If this hap­
pens, the active lane assist may not detect
the lane markings or may respond incorrect­
ly.
- In certain circumstances, for instance if visi­
bility is poor, the setting for the steering in­
put may be switched
internally
from "early"
to"late" l)_
- In certain driving conditions, such as ruts in
the road surface, adverse cambers or side
winds, the assistance provided by the steer­
ing correction may be insufficient to keep
the vehicle in the middle of the lane.
- For safety reasons, the active lane assist
must not be used in poor weather or in diffi­
cult or slippery road conditions (such as ice,
fog, loose grit or gravel, heavy rain, snow,
etc.) -risk of accident!

Audi drive select (vehicle
set-up functions)
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
Drive select allows you to use different set-ups
on your vehicle. The four modes efficiency*, com­
fort, auto and dynamic allow the driver, for ex­
ample, to change from a sporty mode to a more
comfortable one via the �.:i.l\:'I button in the centre
console or via the infotainment system. In addi­
tion, the individual mode allows you to adapt the
vehicle set-up to suit your personal driving style.
For example, you might choose to combine a
more dynamic engine set-up with a lighter steer­
ing response.
Description
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
The possible vehicle set-up in each mode de­
pends on which equipment is installed on your
vehicle.
Engine and automatic gearbox*
The response of the engine and automatic gear­
box* to accelerator pedal movements will be
more spontaneous or balanced, depending on
which mode you select. In efficiency* mode the
automatic gearbox* selects the next gear at low­
er engine speeds and the coasting mode is activa-
100 ted
¢ page 82. This helps to reduce fuel con­
sumption.
Suspension control (Audi magnetic ride)*
The suspension control uses sensors to collect in­
formation on steering movements, braking and
acceleration input by the driver, road surface
quality, road speed and vehicle loading. With
drive select you can choose between dynamic and
comfort-oriented suspension set-ups (dynamic
and comfort modes), or opt for a more balanced
set-up (auto mode).
Steering
The degree of power assistance can be varied.
The light, indirect steering response in comfort
mode is particularly suitable on long motorway
trips, for instance. The steering has a tighter,
more direct feel in dynamic mode.
Air conditioner*
The air conditioner runs in a particularly econom­
ical mode when the efficiency* setting is selec­
ted. When this function is selected, eco* is shown
in the display of the automatic air conditioner.
Cruise control system*
The acceleration response is particularly econom­
ical in efficiency* mode.
Engine sound*
The sound of the engine is matched to the selec­
ted mode and ranges from subdued to dynamic.
(QJ} Note
- On some models the vehicle's maximum
speed can only be obtained in the auto and
dynamic modes.
- On vehicles with manual gearbox, an E ap­
pears in the gear-change indicator when ef­
ficiency* mode is activated.
-Applies to vehicles with manual gearbox: If
you press the accelerator right down past
the point of resistance in efficiency* mode,
the engine power is automatically control­
led to give your vehicle maximum accelera-
tion. ..,.

CX) Parking
aids
General notes
Applies to: vehicles with rear parking aid/parking system
plus/park assist
Various systems are available to help you when
parking or manoeuvring in tight spaces, depend­
ing on the equipment fitted on your vehicle.
The rear parking aid gives an acoustic warning if
there are any obstacles behind the car
¢page 104.
When you are parking, the parking system plus
warns you acoustically and optically about obsta­
cles detected in front of and behind the vehicle
¢page 104. On vehicles with park assist, the
area detected at the side of the vehicle ®
¢page 104, Fig. 106 is also monitored.
The reversing camera uses the infotainment sys­
tem display to show a picture of the area behind
the vehicle captured by the camera. Orientation
lines in the image from the reversing camera as­
sist you when parking or manoeuvring
¢ page 106. In addition, you are assisted by the
functions of the parking system plus
¢page 104.
The park assist helps you to find suitable parking
spaces, to manoeuvre the vehicle into spaces par­
allel or perpendicular to the roadside and to drive
out of spaces parallel to the kerb ¢ page 108.
A WARNING
-Always watch the road and the area sur­
rounding the vehicle. The electronic systems
cannot replace the full concentration of the
driver. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and all other manoeu­
vres.
- Please note that certain surfaces, such as
clothing fabrics, cannot be detected or dis­
played by the system -risk of accident!
- The sensors and cameras have blind spots in
which neither people nor objects are regis­
tered. It is particularly important to ensure
that there are no small children or animals
near the vehicle -risk of accident! Parking
aids
- Impacts or damage to the radiator grille,
bumper, wheel arches or underbody can
cause misalignment of the sensors. This can
impair the effectiveness of the parking aids.
Have the systems checked by a qualified
workshop.
CD CAUTION
- The system may not always be able to de­
tect objects such as the following:
- Chains, trailer draw bars, posts or fences
- Objects above the sensors, such as wall
protrusions, etc.
- Objects with certain surfaces or struc­
tures, such as wire fences or powder snow
- As your car moves closer to low obstacles,
they may disappear from the sensors' field
of vision. Please note that you will no longer
be warned about these obstacles.
- Remember to maintain sufficient clearance
from the kerb to avoid damaging the wheel
rims.
(@ Note
- In certain situations, a warning may be giv­
en by the system even if there is no obstacle
within range of the sensors. This can be
caused by the following, for instance:
- Certain road surfaces or long grass
- External ultrasound sources, e.g. from
street cleaning vehicles
- Heavy rain or snow or dense exhaust
fumes
- To familiarise yourself with the system, we
recommend that you practise parking in a
quiet location or a car park. The weather
and light conditions should be good.
- You can adjust the volume of the beeps.
- There is a slight delay in the picture display.
- To ensure that the acoustic parking aid
works properly, the sensors must be kept
clean and free of snow and ice.

You can estimate the distance to an obstacle by
referring to the segments in front of and behind
the vehicle (vehicles with parking system plus*)
or the segments surrounding the vehicle
(vehicles with park assist*) ¢Fig. 108. The red
lines indicate the anticipated path of the vehicle,
depending on the steering wheel angle. A white
segment indicates an obstacle that has been de­
tected beyond the path of travel. Red segments
represent objects detected within the path of
travel. The closer the vehicle gets to the obstacle
the closer the segments move towards the vehi­
cle in the graphic. At the latest when the penulti­
mate segment is highlighted the vehicle has
reached the danger (collision) zone. Obstacles
within the danger (collision) zone are shown in
red, even if they are beyond the path of travel.
