the distance warning functions may be unavailable

A message that indicates the cause and possible solution may appear with some displays. The weather conditions may be too poor or a sensor may be covered. Clean the area in front of the sensors and try to turn the system on again later.
If the malfunction remains, drive to an authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility immediately to have the malfunction corrected.
WARNING
Observe the safety precautions and note the limits of the assist systems, sensors, and cameras.
Tips
- The driver is always responsible for adhering to the regulations applicable in the country where the vehicle is being operated.
- You may fall below the warning threshold briefly when passing or when quickly approaching a vehicle driving ahead. There is no warning in this scenario. A warning is given only if you fall below the warning threshold for an extended period of time.
