Audi parking system144
• Off (no display).
The reversing camera can be switched on and off in the MMI
⇒ page 149. The acoustic proximity warning will, however, remain
activated.
WARNING
• The reversing camera has blind spots in which obstacles are
not registered. It is particularly important to ensure that there are
no small children or animals near the vehicle, as the reversing
camera may not always be able to detect them (accident risk).
• The parking aid cannot replace the full concentration of the
driver. The driver is always responsible for safety during parking
and other manoeuvres. Always keep a close watch on the area
around the vehicle.
• Please note that low obstacles detected by the system may no
longer be registered by the sensors as the car moves closer, so the
system will not give any further warning. Certain kinds of obsta-
cles (such as wire fences, chains, thin painted posts or trailer draw
bars, etc.) may not always be detected by the system (accident
risk).
Note
• There is a slight delay in the picture display.
• To ensure that the reversing camera works properly, the lens of
the camera ⇒ page 140, fig. 154 must be kept clean and free of
snow and ice. Please observe the additional notes on ⇒ page 152.
• If the boot lid is open the angle covered by the camera will
change. For this reason, the image of the reversing camera will then
be shown without orientation lines and blue area markings.
• Please refer to the notes on towing ⇒ page 147.
Applies to vehicles: with parking system advanced
