The night vision assist can distinguish pedestrians and wild animals within a range of about 10 to 90 metres in front of the Audi A6, subject to certain system limitations. When the headlights are on after dark and the system successfully detects a pedestrian or wild animal (for system limitations refer to ►Link), it highlights the person or animal visually in a yellow box Fig. 1. The animal detection feature is not activated in built-up areas. Only large wild animals, such as deer, are detected by the system.
