General information: Function:

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 12 other vehicles, including the 2005 Audi allroad, 2004 Audi allroad, 2004 Audi A6, 2003 Audi allroad, and 2003 Audi S6. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

After switching ignition on, a self-test is performed that is completed in less than a second. The control module is now permanently in operation, but gap recognition is only activated once reverse gear is engaged or can be activated/deactivated with the switch for parking assistance.

When parking assistance is ready, a short signal is sounded (delay of one second for automatic vehicles due to P-D shift) and the function lamp in the switch lights up. If a malfunction is detected in the system, a constant signal sounds for 5 seconds and the function lamp in the switch for parking assistance blinks.

The pauses between chime impulses get shorter as the gap between vehicles gets smaller. For gaps under 25 cm, the chime becomes constant. (Adaptation of volume and pitch (frequency). See ADAPTATION TABLE )

Special case: Driving along a wall
