The hill hold assist function makes it easier to drive away on a slope.
Important: The driver's door must be closed, the seat belt buckled and the engine running.
The system is activated when you press and hold the brake pedal for a few seconds.
When you release the brake pedal the braking force will be maintained for a moment in order to hold the Audi Q3 and make it easier for you to drive away.
WARNING!
- The intelligent technology in the hill hold assist function cannot defy the laws of physics. Do not let the extra convenience afforded by the hill hold assist function tempt you into taking any risks when driving – this can cause accidents.
- The hill hold assist function cannot keep the Audi Q3 stationary in all conditions on a gradient (e.g. if the road is slippery or icy).
- If you do not drive away immediately after releasing the brake pedal the Audi Q3 could start to roll back. You should therefore immediately press the brake pedal or apply the parking brake.
- If the engine should stall you must immediately press the brake pedal or apply the parking brake.
- If you are driving away on a slope in stop-and-go traffic press and hold the brake pedal for a few seconds before driving off. This will prevent the Audi Q3 from rolling back unintentionally.
