surfaces , especially bridges and overpasses , could be ice covered
and slippery even at an outside temperature above 41 °F (+5 °C ).
• Always remembe r, even if the "snowflake " symbol (ice
warning) does not appear in the display , black ice could be on the
road .
• Alway s reduce your speed and drive with special care in cold
weather conditions when the chance of encountering icy road
surfaces increases . •

0 Note
If you disconnect the battery terminals, no calculations can be
made for the service interva l display during this time and no service
reminder will appear. Remember that observing the proper service
interva ls is vitally important to extending the life of your vehicle,
particularly the engine, and maintaining its value. Even if the
mileage driven is low, the maximum period of one year from one
service to the next must not be exceeded.•

Tire pressure monitoring system
General notes l )
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked
monthly when co ld and inflated to the inflation pressure recom­
mended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire
inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size
than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pres­
sure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure
for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a
tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly
under-inf lated . Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illu­
minates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible,
and inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly
under -inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread
life, and may affect the vehicle's handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire mainte ­
nance, and it is the driver's responsibility to maintain correct tire .,_

[ i ] Tip s
• In the case of an intentional loss of air pressure, for example,
when re -adjusting tire pressure, this has to be stored again after ­
wards:::::,
page 45 .
• Tire pressure must only be adjusted when the temperature of the
tires is about the same as ambient air temperature.
• The ye llow symbol disappears, when the tire pressure is
corrected and the new pressure is stored in the system=:>
page 45.
• After changing a wheel you have to adjust the tire pressures on
all whee ls . In addition, you must then initialize the new tire pres­
sures in the tire pressure monitoring system=:>
page 46. •
Storing tire pressures
Correct storage of specified pressure is the basic require­
ment for reliable tire pressure monitoring.
Fig. 27 Car: Tire pres ­
s u re moni to rin g
sys tem
In o rder for the tire pressure mo nitoring system to operate
appropriately, you have to re -save the specified pressures in
the MMI wheneve r you adjust tire press ures, for example
when the load condition o f your vehic le changes. Proceed
as follows:
Controls and equip ­
ment
Dr ive r informat ion di spl ay
C orr ec ting tir e pr essur e
Check the pressure in the tires.
- Adjust air pressure according to the tire pressure label or the pressures listed in this manual~

Saving tir e pr essures
Turn o n the ignition .
Press the
I CAR] function button.
- Select
Systems in the CAR menu.
- Select
Tire pre ssure monitoring .
-Select Store curr . tir e press ures~ fig . 27.
All pressure warning indicators in the display wi ll be canceled.
Following each intentional change in specified pressures, tire pres­
sures must be resaved.
After the pressures are saved, the tire pressure monitoring system measures the current tire pressures and saves them as the new
specified pressures.
[ i ] Tip s
• The tire pressure is shown on the tire pressure label. On USA
vehicles, the tire pressure label is located on the driver 's side B ­
pillar. On Canada vehicles, the tire pressure label is located either on
the driver's side B -pillar or inside the fuel filler f lap . T he tire pressure
label l ists the recommended cold tire inflation pressures for the
vehic le at its maximum capacity weight and the tires that were on
your vehicle at the time it was manufactured. For recommended tire pressures for normal load conditions, please see chapter
=:>

display will be canceled .
If a wheel change has been made, it is necessary to complete the
I niti alize w hee ls function. Afte r you have selected the function, the
new wheels are programmed and the actual pressures are stored .
This learning phase can take up to 20 minutes driving time.
During the learning process the tire pressure monitoring system is
not avai lable. •
Malfunctions =-r,,11~
A malfunction can have various causes.
Fig. 28 Displ ay :
Syste m malfu nc tion
If the warning light in the instrument cluster flashes for approxi­
mately one minute and then remains continuously illuminated and
additionally the
JIS => fig . 28 symbol 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
insta lled .
• A wheel sensor or other component may have failed .
• During initialization the system has detected more than 4 whee ls
on the vehicle, for examp le while driving next to another car with a
tire pressure monitoring system .
• A wheel change was made but the
Initi alize wheel s function
=> page 46was not activated.
• Audi replacement parts were not used .
• If snow chains are being used , system function can be compro ­
m ised due to the shielding properties of the cha ins .
• T he tire pressure monitoring system may not be available
because of a radio ma lfunction. _,.,

• For security reasons, replacement keys are only available from
Audi dea lers. •
