The illustration on previous page shows the
arrangement of the instrument cluster in a
U.S. vehicle.
1 - Engine oil temperature
gauge �
Of (C)
Engine oil temperature ranges from 150 OF
(60 °C) to 350 °F (180 °C). With the needle
around 150 °F (60 °C), do not accelerate un­
der full load.
If the needle moves into the upper zone in
excepti onal cases, reduce your speed. The
needle should then return to the normal
zone.
If the needle stays in upper zone, stop the
vehicle, switch off the engine and check the
oil leve l. If the oil level is correct and the oil
pressure warning light does not flash when
the engine is started, you can drive to the
next authorized Audi Dealer but do·not run
engine at high speeds. 2
- Ta chometer with clock
Ta chometer
The red area at the end of the scale indi­
cates maximum permissible engine rpm
(rev olutions per minute) for all gears after
the break-in period. Before reaching this
area, the next higher gear or selector lever
position "D" should be selected or the foot
eased off the accelerator pedal.
r.Gb Upshifting early saves fuel and
1!/!:i reduces engine noise.
Shift to the next lower gear when engine
rpm drops below 1,500 rpm. CONT

Odometer
The odometer indicates the distance driven.
USA models:
Miles

thorized Audi Dealer.
7 - Vo ltmeter
The voltmeter indicates the voltage for the
vehicle's total electrical system, which
should normally be between 12 and
14 volts. If the display drops below 12 volts
when the engine is running, have the power
supply (battery and alternator) checked by
an authorized Audi Dealer. See also
pages 127 and 143.

VEHICLE CA
RE----------------------------------------------------
When disconnecting and
connecting the battery ...
When you disconnect the vehicle battery
please note the following:
- some data stored in the driver informa-
tion system are erased,
- the clock goes out,
- the factory installed radio locks up,
- the Engine management system,
- the one-touch-u p and one-touch-down
functions of the power windows no lon­
ger work,
- all stored seat positions in the memory*
are erased.
Af teryou reconnect the battery, you must
reset the clock. � page 118.
You also have to reset the Engine manage­
ment system -see "Starter Switch "
�pa ge 113.
You also have to reset the one-touch-up and
one-touch�down feature on power win­
dows -see "Power windows "
�p age 71.
248 You
have also reset the seat memory* -see
"Seats"
� page 81.
The radio must be re-coded with the correct
radio code - see your radio Operating In­
structions.
Replacement battery
A replacement battery must have the same
specifications and dimensions as the origi­
nal equipment battery. Specifications are
listed on the battery housing.
When installing the battery, make sure the
ignition and all electrical consumers are
switched off.
r.Gb. Because of the problem of �proper di
sposal of a battery, we
recommend that you have your au­
thorized Audi Dealer change the
battery for you. Batteries contain
sulfuric acid and lead and must al­
ways be disp osed of properly ob­
serving all environmental regula­
tions. Air
cleaner
A dir ty air cleaner element not only reduces
the engine output and increases fuel con­
sumption considerably but can also cause
premature engine wear.
Normally, it is not necessary to service the
air cleaner more often than recommended
in the Maintenance booklet. If the vehicle is
driven on very dusty roads, the air cleaner
must be serviced more frequently, even dai­
ly.
If your air cleaner element must be
changed mora frequently, we rec­
ommend that you have the air clean­
er serviced by your authorized Audi
Dealer or a qualified workshop.
The air cleaner element must never
be cleaned or soaked with gasoline,
cleaning solvents or oil.

Step
7
Inflating the deflated full size
spare tire
• Remove the dust cap from the valve (1 l
by unscrewing it.
• Take the pressure compressor hose out
of the case, and screw the coupling nut se­
curely onto the valve.
• Insert the compressor· connector in to
the socket located on the side of the lug­
gage compartment or inset it ino the ciga­
rette lighter socket -see page 181.
272 •
Turn on the compressor. The required tire
pressure wil be reached within a few min­
utes. Use a pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure. Never operate the compressor
for longer than 5 minutes.
Note
Yo u'll find adhesive labels on the deflated
full size spare tire containing i nstn .1ctions for
using the tire as well as information on the
specified tire pressure.
Step S
• Un screw the pressure hose from the val­
ve and screw the dust cap back on.
• To lower the vehicle, turn the handle
counter-clockwise until the jack is fully re­
leased. Remove jack.
• Then go crosswise from one bolt to
another tightening them firmly.
• If necessary, press the hubcap back onto
the hub of the spare wheel. Step
9
• Slip the plastic cover over the wheel con­
taining the flat tire. Then stow this wheel in
the luggage comopartment and secure it so
that it does not shift.
• Carefully observe the points on
page 288 when using the deflated
full size spare tire.
Notes
• The hex socket in the screwdriver can be
used to make it easier to handle the wheel
bolts. To do this, pull out the revers ible bla-
de. ·
Never use this plastic tool to loosen
or tighten the wheel bolts.
After you change a tire:
• Deactivating the jack moda -see
page 268.
• Use a torque wrench to check the
wheel bolt tightening torque as
soon as possible. With alloy wheels
and a deflated full size spare tire, the
torque should be 88.5 ft-lb (120
Nm).
