Applies to vehicles: with park assist
The park assist helps the driver to manoeuvre the vehicle into and out of parking spaces.
The park assist helps you to find suitable parking spaces, to manoeuvre the vehicle into spaces parallel or perpendicular to the roadside and to drive out of spaces parallel to the kerb. The parking space can be located between two vehicles or behind one vehicle. The park assist takes over the steering while the driver is parking the vehicle in the usual way.
The parking system plus is an integral component of the park assist
►Link and helps you during the parking manoeuvre.
The park assist sensors are located on the sides of the front and rear bumpers. Please ensure that the sensors are kept free of stickers, deposits and any other substances which could impair the function of the system. Notes on cleaning
►Link.
In short parking spaces, the parking aid warning tone will sound continuously when the vehicle is less than approx. 0.20 m away from the obstacle. Stop moving immediately!
- Please observe the safety warnings WARNING!.
- Please note that the park assist only handles the steering. As the driver you are always responsible for braking and accelerating.
- It is the driver's responsibility to decide whether a parking space shown in the display is suitable for the vehicle.
- The front of the vehicle swings out during the parking manoeuvre. Please take all necessary measures to ensure that other road users are not endangered.
- The steering wheel turns rapidly on its own when parking the vehicle and leaving the space. Injury may result if a person reaches between the spokes on the steering wheel when it is turning.
- Please observe the safety warnings Caution!.
- In certain situations, the park assist will guide the vehicle onto or across the kerb, for instance if other vehicles are parked on the kerb. You should always be ready to take over the steering wheel in order to prevent damage to the tyres and/or wheel rims.
- Certain road conditions, such as loose gravel, snow or ice can cause unexpected results when parking.
- The sensors may not always be able to detect objects such as trailer draw bars, thin rails, fences, posts, waste bins and trees, etc. This could result in damage to your car.
- Please note that the system may not always be able to detect the surface of certain objects or substances, such as wire fences or powder snow, etc. You should therefore check that the parking space is really large enough before parking the vehicle.
- Please note that low obstacles detected by the system may no longer be registered by the sensors as the car moves closer, so the system will not give any further warning. Failure to respond to a parking system warning can result in damage to your vehicle and other property. Please bear this in mind, for example, when using the park assist to park behind a truck. Always keep a close watch on the area in front of and behind the vehicle while parking, and intervene promptly if necessary.
- To prevent damage to the sensors when washing the vehicle with a high-pressure cleaner or a steam cleaner, do not hold the cleaner less than 10 cm away from the sensors and do not keep the cleaner pointed directly at the sensors.
Note
- The electronic stabilisation control (ESC) must not be switched off during the parking manoeuvre ►Link.
- The park assist cannot be used to park the vehicle on tight bends.
- If you achieve different results with the park assist after a tyre change, have the system adjusted by an Audi dealer or qualified workshop.
- The park assist cannot be used to park the vehicle if a trailer is attached and the electrical connector for the trailer socket is plugged in.
