System malfunction
If the t warning light in the instrument cluster flashes for approxi ­
mately one minute and then remains continuously illuminated and
additionally the
r fin'-=> fig. 30 symbo l appears in the display, the
tire pressure monitoring system is not available. This can have
various causes .
• If the message appears at the end of the learning process, the
system cannot recognize the wheels installed on the vehicle. This
can be because one or more wheels without a whee l sensor were
installed.
• A wheel sensor or other component may have failed .
• During initia lization the system has detected more than 4 wheels
on the vehicle, for example whi le driving next to another car with a
tire pressure monitoring system.
Controls and equip ­
ment
Driver inform ation system
• A wheel change was made but the button => page 44, fig. 29 was
not pressed .
• Audi replacement parts were not used.
• If snow chains are being used, system function can be compro­
mised due to the shielding properties of the chains.
• The tire pressure monitoring system may not be available
because of a radio malfunction.
• Transmitters with the same frequency, such as radio head ­
phones in the vehic le or radio equipment, can cause a temporary
disruption of the system through excessive e lectromagnetic fields.
• Eliminate the interference if possible/if you can and then
proceed as follows: Turn off the engine for 20 minutes . Then drive
another 10 min. If the warning light comes on again, you should
contact your authorized Audi dealer immediately to have the
problem corrected.
• Do not use commercially available tire sealants. Otherwise, the
e lectrica l components of the tire pressure monitoring system will
no longer work properly and the sensor for the tire pressure moni­
toring system will have to be replaced by a qualified workshop. •

Coming home situation
In
darkness, the activated system will turn on the headlights, side
marker lights , rear side marker lights , tail lights, and rear license
plate light as soon as the driver's door is opened from inside.
As long as one of the doors or the rear lid remains open, the set of
external lights will keep burning for about four minutes maximum.
To provide light for departure, the set of vehicle lights will keep
burning for about another 30 seconds after all doors and the rear lid
have been closed.
The factory-set time of 30 seconds until the lights are switched off can be adjusted if you prefer a longer or shorter duration. Have the
adjustment done by your authorized Audi dealer or a qualified work­
shop. The system can be adjusted to keep the lights burning for a
maximum of 60 seconds.
Leaving home situation
As soon as the vehicle is unlocked by pressing the
ti button on your
remot e control, the set of external l ights is switched on .
The external lights are switched off as soon as the driver's door is
opened from outside . Even if you had the system readjusted to keep
the lights burning for an extended time for coming home, the
external lights will be turned off if you do not open the driver's door
within 60 seconds after unlocking. See chapter "Opening and
Closing" in your Owner's Manual. If the lights are switched off
before you reach the driver's door, press the
a button once more to
turn them on again.
[ i] Tips
• Do not attach any stickers to the windshield in front of the two
light sensors, as this would interfere with both the automatic oper­
ation of the headlights and the automatic dimming of the inside
mirror(s). • If
the vehicle is remotely unlocked and locked three times in
succession, leaving home will not turn on the lights a fourth time to
safeguard the battery and lights.
• If you wish to use the coming home/leaving home function regu­
larly, you can leave it activated at all times without risking perma­
nent strain on the electrical system. As the system is controlled by
light sensors, it will only be energized in darkness .
• Frequent use of the coming home/leaving home function for
approaching and departing a vehicle parked in the dark will strain
the battery. This applies particularly if only short distances are
driven between stops . Occasionally drive longer distances to make
sure the battery is recharged sufficiently.
• If the fog lights have been switched on by the coming
home/leaving home function, they will always be switched off when
you switch on the ignition. •

Wiper and washer system
Windshield wiper ~
The windshield wiper lever controls both the windshield
wipers and the washer system.
Fig. 72 Wiper lever:
windshield wiper lever
positions
T he windshield wiper lever :::::> fig. 72 has the following posi­
tions:
One -touch wiping
Move the lever to position G), when you want to wipe the
windshield
briefly.
Intermittent wiping ~ l (activating rain sensor)*
Move the lever up to position 0-
- Move the interval set switch@, to change the inter vals .
Low wiper speed
-Move the lever up to position ©-
High wiper speed
- Move the lever up to position @.
Automatic wiper/washer
- Pull the lever to position© (toward the steering wheel)
and hold.
- Re lease the lever . The washer stops and the wipers keep
going for about four seconds .
Turning off the wipers
-Move the lever back to position @.
The windshield wipers and washer only work when the ignition is
turned on. If you switch off the ignition with th e windshield wiper
lever still in the interval wipe position and then come back a while
later and drive off, the rain sensor will reactivate itse lf after the
vehic le speed has exceeded 4 mph (6 km/h).
The rain sensor* is only activated with the wiper lever set to posi­
tion
G) . When it starts to rain, the rain sensor will automatically acti ­
vate the intermittent wiping mode.
To reduce the sensitivity of the sensor , move switch
@ down . To
increase the sensitivity , move the switch up. The higher you adjust
the sensi tivity, the faster the sensor will react when it senses mois­
ture on the windshield. The pauses between wiper turns depend not
only on the sensitivity setting , but on the vehicle speed as well.
During brief stops , e.g. at a r ed light, wiper mot ion wil l automati ­
cally be reduced to the next lower speed. Wipers a lready turning at
low speed . change to intermittent wip ing.
When the igni tion is turned on, the washer jets are heated.
& WARNING
• Wiper blades are crucial for safe driving! Only when they are in
good condition are they able to clear the windows properly to
provide uncompromising visibility. Worn or damaged wiper blades
are a safety hazard~

Seats and storage
General recommendations
Why is your seat adjustment so important?
The safety belts and the airbag system can only provide
maximum protection if the front seats are correctly
adjusted.
There are various ways of adjusting the front seats to provide safe
and comfortable support for the driver and the front passenger.
Adjust your seat properly so that:
• you can easily and quickly reach all the switches and controls in
the instrument panel
• your body is properly supported thus reducing physical stress
and fatigue
• the safety belts and airbag system can offer maximum protec­
tion
~ page 146.
In the following sections, you will see exactly how you can best
adjust your seats.
There are special regulations and instructions for installing a child safety seat on the front passenger's seat. Always heed the informa ­
tion regarding child safety provided in~
page 168, "Child Safety".
& WARNING
Incorrect seating position of the driver and all other passengers
can result in serious personal injury.
• Always keep your feet on the floor when the vehicle is in motion
- never put your feet on top of the instrument panel, out of the
window or on top of the seat cushion! This applies especially to
the passengers. If your seating position is incorrect you increase
the risk of injury in the case of sudden braking or an accident. If
Controls and equip ­
ment
Seats and storage
& WARNING (continued)
the airbag inflates and the seating position is incorrect this could
result in personal injury or even death.
• It is important for both the driver and front passenger to keep
a distance of at least 10 inches (25 cml between themselves and
the steering wheel and/or instrument panel. If you're sitting any closer than this, the airbag system cannot protect you properly. In
addition to this, the front seats and head restraints must be
adjusted to your body height so that they can give you maximum
protection.
• Always try to keep as much distance as possible between your­
self and the steering wheel or instrument panel.
• Do not adjust the driver's or front passenger's seat while the
vehicle is moving. Your seat may move unexpectedly, causing
sudden loss of vehicle control and personal injury. If you adjust
your seat while the vehicle is moving, you are out of position. •
Driver's seat
The correct seat position is important for safe and relaxed
driving.
We recommend that you adjust the driver's seat in the
following manner:
- Adjust the seat in fore and aft direction so that you can
easily push the pedals to the floor while keeping your
knee slightly bent:::>
& in "Why is your seat adjustment
so important?".
Adjust the seatback so that when you sit with your back against the seatback, you can still grasp the top of the
steering wheel. _..

one is in the way, or serious injury could result!
Controls and equip ­
ment
Seats and storage
& WARNING (continued)
• To reduce the risk of injury in the case of sudden braking or
accident, front passengers must never ride in a moving vehicle
with the seatback reclined . Safety belts and the airbag system
only offer maximum protection when the seatback is upright and
the safety belts are properly positioned on the body. The more the
seatback is reclined, the greater the risk of personal injury from an
incorrect seating position and improperly positioned safety
belts! •

Contro ls and eq uip­
ment
& WARNING
Improper use of steering wheel adjustment and improper seating
position can cause serious personal injury.
• Adjust the steering wheel column only when the vehicle is not
moving to prevent loss of vehicle control.
• Adjust the driver's seat or steering wheel so that there is a
minimum of 10 inches (25 cm) between your chest and the
steering wheel
=> page 130, fig. 118 . If you cannot maintain this
minimum distance , the airbag system cannot protect you prop­
erly .
• If physical limitations prevent you from sitting 10 inches (25
cm) or more from the steering wheel, check with your authorized
Audi dealer to see if adaptive equipment is available.
• If the steering wheel is aligned with your face, the supple­
mental driver's airbag cannot provide as much protection in an
accident. Always make sure that the steering wheel is aligned with
your chest .
• Always hold the steering wheel with your hands at the 9 o'clock
and 3 o'clock positions to reduce the risk of personal injury if the
driver's airbag deploys .
• Never hold the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock position or with
your hands inside the steering wheel rim or on the steering wheel
hub . Holding the steering wheel the wrong way can cause serious
injuries to the hands , arms and head if the driver's airbag
deploys .•
