– Insert the plug of the electrical appliance into the ciga- rette lighter socket.
The cigarette lighter employs a standard 12 Volt socket which can
also be used as a power source for electrical appliances. The appli-
ances connected to the socket must not exceed a power rating of
100 W.
The cigarette lighter only works when the ignition is on.
WARNING
•
Take care when using the ciga rette lighter. Carelessness or
negligence when using the cigarette lighter can cause burns.
•
The electrical sockets and any appliances connected to them
will operate only when the igniti on is switched on. Improper use
of the electrical sockets or the appliances connected to them can
cause injuries or fire. To avoid the risk of injury, never leave chil-
dren unsupervised in th e vehicle with the key.Caution
•
Always use the correct type of plugs to avoid damaging the
sockets.
•
The cigarette lighter socket should only be used for a short
period of time as a power source for electrical equipment. Please
use the electrical sockets* ⇒page 88 in the vehicle when
connecting equipment for longer periods.Note
Using electrical appliances with the engine switched off will drain
the battery.

– Fold up the lid to access the socket.
– Plug the Euro connector into the socket. This will auto- matically release the child safety device.LED in electrical socket
Appliances suitable for connection
Electrical equipment with a Euro plug connector can be connected
to the 230 Volt Euro socket. The appliances connected to the
230 Volt Euro socket must not exceed a power rating of 150 W
(300 W peak power). If you connect more than one applia
nce, the total power rating of all
appliances must not exceed 150 W. If necessary, check the type
plates on the connected appliances for details of the power ratings.
Connected appliances must be in perfect condition and free of
defects.
WARNING
•
Heavy appliances or plugs (such as power supply units) can
damage the mounting of the 230 Volt Euro socket if they are
suspended directly from the socket – Risk of injury!
•
Make sure that all connected appliances are securely stowed
when driving to prevent them from being catapulted through the
car under braking or in an accident – Danger to life!
•
Never spill liquid over the socket – Danger to life! If the socket
does get wet, ensure that it is absolutely dry before using it again.
•
Improper use of the electrical socket or appliances connected
to it can cause injuries or fire – Risk of injury!
•
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle while the engine
is running – Risk of injury!
•
Connected appliances behave differ ently than when they are
connected to the public electricity grid. As a result, the connected
appliances may become hot during operation – Risk of injury!
•
When using adapters or extens ion cables, please remember
that the child safety device on the 230 Volt Euro socket is deacti-
vated and the socket is live – Risk of injury!
•
Do not insert c onductive materials, su ch as knitting needles,
into the contacts of the 230 Volt Euro socket – Danger to life!
•
Switch off the connected electrical appliances if the inverter
trips out due to overheat ing – Risk of injury!Caution
•
Please observe the operating instructions for the connected
appliances.

If the power drawn by the connected appliances is above 150 W,
the inverter in the socket will get warm. The inverter will trip out if
the temperature exceeds a certain limit. The inverter can trip out on
hot days even when an appliance with a suitable power rating is
used. The inverter will switch on again automatically after it has
cooled down. Appliances whic h are already connected and
switched on will be activated again automatically ⇒ .
•
Do not connect lamps which contain a neon tube. For technical
reasons, this may damage the lamp.
•
Do not connect 115 Volt appliances to the 230 Volt Euro socket.
This may cause irreparable damage to the appliance. Check the type
plate on the appliance if you are unsure of the voltage rating.
•
With some power supplies (e.g. on laptop computers), the inte-
grated surge suppressor prevents the equipment from being
switched on because the starting current is too high. If this
happens, please disconnect the power supply unit from the load
and wait for about 10 seconds before re-connecting.Note
•
Unshielded equipment can cause interference on the radio, TV
and vehicle's electrical system.
•
The Euro socket has an integrated child safety device. There is no
power at the socket until the Euro connector is fully inserted.
•
Some appliances may not function normally due to the lower
power rating (wattage).
•
The socket can be operated with 115 Volt power supplies, as is
the case in certain countries. In this case, a different type of inverter
must be installed in the vehicle. Retrofit kits are available from your
Audi dealer. Do not connect 115 Volt appliances to the 230 Volt Euro
socket.
•
Interference can occur on the radio's AM waveband if electrical
appliances are used near the rear window aerial.
