Audi side assist
Audi side assist in the Audi Q7
Introduction
The purpose of the Audi side assist is to monitor the area behind and to the side the vehicle using radar
sensors and assist the driver when changing lanes. The area monitored also includes the so-called "blind
spot" on the driver side and the front passenger side. Each vehicle side is fitted with a radar sensor for this
purpose.
If the Audi side assist detects a critical situation that could cause an accident during a lane change,
the system alerts and warns the driver. The driver is alerted through activation of the warning lamps in the
relevant exterior mirror and warned through the warning lamps flashing rapidly.
