Assistance systems
Applies to: vehicles with Audi side assist
If you activate a turn signal when active lane as-
sist is ready and it classifies a lane change as crit-
ical because of vehicles trave ling alongside you or
approaching you, there will be noticeable correc-
tive steering shortly before you leave the lane.
This will attempt to keep your vehicle in the lane.
App lies to: vehicles without Audi side assist
The system will not warn you before crossing a
lane marker line if you have activated the turn
signal. In this case, it assumes that you are
changing lanes intentionally.
A WARNING
- The system warns the driver that the vehicle
is leaving the lane using corrective steering.
The driver is always responsible for keeping
the vehicle within the lane.
- The system can help you keep the vehicle in
the lane, but it does not drive by itself . Al-
ways keep your hands on the steering
wheel.
- Corrective steering may not occur in certain
situations, such as during heavy braking.
- There may be cases where the camera does
not recognize all lane marker lines . Correc-
tive steering can only take place on the side
of the vehicle where lane marker lines are
detected.
- Other road structures or objects could possi-
bly be identified unintentionally as lane
marker lines. As a result, corrective steering
may be unexpected or may not occur.
- The camera view can be restricted, for ex-
ample by vehicles driving ahead or by rain,
snow, heavy spray light shining into the
camera or by dirt on the window. This can
result in active lane assist not detecting the
lane marker lines or detecting them incor-
rectly.
- Under certain conditions such as ruts in the
road, an inclined roadway or crosswinds, t he
corrective steering alone may not be enough
to keep the vehicle in the middle of the lane.
- For safety reasons, active lane assist must
not be used when there are poor road and/
or weather conditions such as slippery

roads, fog, gravel, heavy rain, snow and the
potential for hydroplaning . Using active lane
assist under these conditions may increase
the risk of a crash.
