@ Approaching vehicles
In certain cases, a vehicle will be classified as
critical for a lane change even if it is still some­
what far away. The faster a vehicle approaches,
the sooner the display in the exterior m irror will

@ Vehicles traveling with you

@Vehicles you are passing
If you slowly pass a veh icle that side assist has
detected (the d ifference in speed be twee n the
veh icle and your veh icle is less t han 9 mph (15
km/h)), the d isplay in the exterior mirror turns
on as soon as the vehicle enters your blind spot .
The display will not tu rn o n if you quick ly pass a

ence in speed is greate r than 9 mph ( 15 km/h)).
Functional limitations
The rada r senso rs a re designed to detect the left
and right adjacen t lanes when the road lanes a re
the normal wid th . In some s ituat ions, the d isplay
in the exter ior mirror may tur n on even tho ugh
there is no vehicle located in the area that is criti ­
cal for a lane change. For example:
- If the lanes a re nar row o r if yo ur are dr iving on
the edge of your lane. If this is the case, the system may have detected the vehicle in anoth­
er lane t hat is
not adjacent to your current lane.
- If you are dr iv ing t hrough a curve. Side assis t
may react to a vehicle that is one lane over
from the adjacent lane.
- If side assist reacts to other objects (such as high or displaced guard rails) .
- In poor weather condit ions . The side assis t
functions are limited.

A WARNING
-Always pay attention to traffic and to the
area aro und your vehicle. Side assist cannot
rep lace a dr iver's attention. The drive r alone
is a lways responsible for lane changes and
similar driving maneuvers.
- In some situat io ns, the system may not
function or its funct ion may be limited . For
example:
78
-
- If vehicles are app roaching or being left
behind very q uickly. The disp lay may not
turn on in time.
- In poor weathe r cond it ions such as heavy
r ain, snow or heavy mist.
- On very wide lanes, in tight curves, or if
the re is a r ise in the road surface. Veh icles
i n the adjacent lane may not be detected
because they are outside of the sensor
r ange.
- Aud i side assist can not detect all ve hicles
under all conditions, which can inc rease the
r is k of acciden ts.
- Please note that s ide ass ist only d isp lays ap­
proach ing vehicles or veh icles in your blind
spot if your veh icle is traveling a t least
19 mph (30 km/h).
- In ce rtain s ituations, t he sys tem may not
wo rk or its funct ion may be limited. For ex­
ample:
- The disp lay may not turn on at the r ight
time if vehicles are approaching or pass ing
very quickly.
- In poor weathe r con ditions, such as heavy
r ain, snow or fog.
- In very wide lanes, in tight c urves o r whe n
the re are slopes in the roadway, vehicles
i n the ne ighboring lanes may not be de­
tected because they a re outside of the
senso r range.
(D Note
The sensors can be d isplaced by impacts or
damage to the bumper, wheel housing and underbody. This can impair the system. Have
an authorized Audi dealer or author ized Audi
Service Fac ility check the ir f unct io n.
(D Tips
