The hill hold assist function makes it easier to drive away on a slope.
The system is activated when you press and hold the brake pedal for a few seconds. The Audi Q7 must be on a slope and facing uphill.
When you release the brake pedal the braking force will be maintained for a moment in order to hold the Audi Q7 and make it easier for you to drive away.
WARNING
- If you do not drive away immediately after releasing the brake pedal the Audi Q7 could start to roll back. You should therefore immediately press the brake pedal or apply the parking brake.
- If the engine stalls 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 Q7 from rolling back unintentionally.
- Always switch off the ignition before leaving the Audi Q7 - even for a moment. Apply the parking brake in addition to stop the Audi Q7 rolling away accidentally. This is especially important if children are left in the car (risk of accident).
