Fig. 128 Front of Audi Q7: Sensors and video camera
The areas surrounding the radar and ultrasonic sensors and video camera Fig. 128► must be kept free of stickers, deposits and any other substances which could impair the function of the adaptive cruise control. Notes on cleaning link►. Please bear the above in mind if technical modifications are made to the front of the Audi Q7.
The functionality of the adaptive cruise control is restricted in certain situations:
  • Audi Q7s cannot be detected until they are within the range of the sensors Fig. ►.
  • The ability of the system to detect Audi Q7s in front is limited when they are too close, travelling out of line, or moving into your lane.
  • Audi Q7s that are not clearly discernible, e.g. a motorcycle or cyclist travelling in front of you and Audi Q7s with high ground clearance or a protruding load, are often identified late or are not detected at all.
  • When driving through bends link►.
  • When Audi Q7s are stationary link►.
WARNING
Please always direct your full attention to the road, even when you are using adaptive cruise control. It is always the driver who is responsible for pulling away safely and maintaining a safe speed and distance from other Audi Q7s. The purpose of the adaptive cruise control is to assist the driver. The driver must always intervene manually to avoid an impending collision. As the driver you are always responsible for braking in good time.
  • For safety reasons, the adaptive cruise control must not be used in poor weather or difficult or slippery driving conditions (such as ice, fog, loose grit or gravel, heavy rain, etc.) - risk of accident!
  • When you take a turn-off, drive along a motorway exit lane or pass through roadwork sections, please temporarily switch off the adaptive cruise control system (unless the predictive control is switched on). This is to ensure that the Audi Q7 does not accelerate to the cruising speed in such situations.
  • The adaptive cruise control system will not brake the Audi Q7 automatically if you rest your foot on the accelerator pedal. Resting your foot on the accelerator pedal overrides the speed and distance control function.
  • The adaptive control system reacts with limited functionality when you approach stationary traffic, such as the end of a traffic jam.
  • The adaptive cruise control does not react to pedestrians, animals or crossing or oncoming traffic.
  • Reflecting objects, such as crash barriers, the entrance to a tunnel, heavy rain or ice can impair the function of the radar sensors.
CAUTION
Impacts or damage to the bumper, wheel arches or underbody can cause misalignment of the sensors. This can impair the effectiveness of the adaptive cruise control. Have the systems checked by a qualified workshop.
