Audi hold assist
This warning lamp monitors the Audi hold assist function. Audi hold assist helps
the driver to keep the vehicle stationary while the engine is running, for instance
on steep gradients, at traffic lights or in stop-and-go traffic. When the Audi hold
assist function is on, you don't have to keep your foot on the brake to prevent
the vehicle from accidentally rolling away. Once it detects that the vehicle is
stopped, Audi hold assist keeps the vehicle stationary. The green symbol
in the instrument cluster indicates
that the function is activated. You can now take your foot off the brake pedal.
When the vehicle has been stationary for an extended period, Audi hold assist
will automatically apply the parking brake. In this case, the green symbol
will change to red
.
