Depending on the vehicle equipment, various parking aids will help you when parking and maneuvering.
The parking aid plus assists you while parking using audio and visual signals to warn you about objects detected in front of, behind, and next to the vehicle.
The rearview camera shows the area behind the vehicle in the center display. The lines in the rearview camera image help you to park and maneuver.
The peripheral cameras supplement the rearview camera and help you to see various areas around the vehicle while parking and maneuvering.
Rear cross-traffic assist can warn you of approaching cross traffic when driving in reverse or exiting a parking space.
Park assist helps you locate suitable parking spaces and assists with parking and exiting them. The system controls the steering movements.
The driver remains responsible for accelerating, braking, and shifting gears and must always monitor the area around the vehicle.
You can adjust parking aid functions according to your preferences. The available settings depend on the vehicle equipment.
Observe the safety precautions and note the limits of the assist systems, sensors, and cameras.
Audi recommends practicing parking in a traffic-free location to become familiar with the systems. Practice in good lighting and weather conditions.
