the outside mirror can be adjusted via the
MMI.

control button > Audi side assist. Or
.. Select :
I CAR! function button > Car systems*

The brightness of the signal light for both the
informational and alert stages is automatical -
ly adjusted to ambient light conditions. In ad-
dition, you can adjust the
basic brightness
separately, via the brightness function.
While making the adjustment, the new
brightness setting is displayed briefly . The
brightness displayed is that of the informa-
tional stage signal. The alert stage signal
brightness is linked to the informational stage
signal brightness.
The informational stage signal brightness
should be adjusted so that you notice the sig-
nal illumination when you look in the outside
mirror, but not when you look forward
through the windshield.
In very dark or light surroundings, the auto-
matic brightness setting adjusts signal light
brightness to maximum or minimum intensi-
ty, as needed. In circumstances such as these,
you may not notice any change in the bright-
ness on the outside mirror when adjusting the
basic brightness.
You may not notice the change until lighting
conditions are normal again.
(D Tips
- Side assist is not active when the basic
brightness is adjusted. The signal light
comes on briefly to help you make the
adjustment.
- Your settings are automatically stored
and assigned to the remote control key
being used.
