System characteristics of the collision assistance function
• Collision avoidance assistance does not provide steering
assistance unless the driver is actively steering the
vehicle.
• It is available at speeds of between about 18.6 - 93.2 mph
(30 -150 km/h).
• Helps the driver to steer around an obstacle on the left
or right.
Deactivating collision avoidance
If Audipresense is switched o in the MMI, collision avoid-
ance assistance is not available. The system can be reacti-
vated in the MMI.
Depending on country version
1)
, a deactivated Audi pre sense
system is automatically re-activated when the ignition is
turned o and on again.
Driver prioritisation over system
If the driver takes clear evasive action, accelerates or brakes
during the individual phases of Audi pre sense front func-
tions, the momentary actions of Audi pre sense front (for
example,partial braking operation I) will be suppressed or
cancelled.
Collision avoidance assistance is an exception here. If the
driver takes clear evasive action after a warning jolt, the
system can guide the driver along the computed evasion
line by providing helpful steering inputs. In this case, the
assistance is not cancelled by a clear evasive action.
Eect of system settings on Audipresensefront functions
• If Audipresense is deactivated, the functions of
Audipresensefront are also deactivated.
