Vehicle stands for an extended period
If you do not drive your vehicle over a period of several days or
weeks, electrical components are gradually cut back or switched off.
This reduces energy consumption and maintains starting capability
over a longer period.
Take into consideration that when you unlock your vehicle, some
convenience functions, such as the remote key or power seat
adjustment, may not be available. The convenience functions will be
available again when you turn on the ignition and start the engine.
With the engine turned off
If you listen to the radio, for example, with the engine turned off or
use other MMI functions, the battery is being discharged.
If starting capability is jeopardized due to energy consumption, the
following warning appears in the MMI display:
Please start engine, otherwise system will switch off in
3 minutes.
The warning indicates that the system will be turned off automati­
cally after 3 minutes. If you wish to continue using the functions,
you have to start the engine.
With the engine running
Although electrical energy is generated when the vehicle is being
driven, the battery can become discharged. This happens mostly
when little energy is being generated and a great deal consumed and the battery's state of charge is not optimal.
To bring the energy balance back into equilibrium, consumers
which require especially large amounts of energy are temporarily
cut back or switched off. Heating systems in particular require a
great deal of energy. If you notice, for example, that the heated
seats* or the heated rear window are not heating, they have been
temporarily cut back or switched off. These systems will be available
again as soon as the energy balance has been restored.
You will also notice that engine idle speed has been increased
slightly. This is normal and not a cause for concern. By increasing engine idle speed the additional energy required is generated and
the battery is charged. •
Driver notification in the instrument cluster
display
If battery power drops into the range where it can limit the ability of
the engine to start, this is shown in the instrument cluster display
with the following driver message:
C Low battery charge: battery will be charged while driving
This notification reminds you that the starting capability of the
engine may be limited. As soon as you start driving again, the
battery will be recharged and the notification will go out.
Driver notification appears and goes out again
If this driver notification appears after the ignition is turned on or
while driving and it goes out again after a while, the battery has
been adequately recharged.
Driver notification appears and does not go out again
If this driver notification appears after the ignition is turned on or
while driving and does not go out again, the battery's state of
charge is not in the optimal range. Starting ability is restricted. Have
the battery checked as soon as possible by an authorized Audi dealer or qualified workshop. •

Care of interior
MMI display
- C lean the M MI display with a soft c lean cloth and an LCD
cleaner.
The MM I display can be cleaned with a professional ly available "LCD
cleaner". The clot h should be s lightly dampened with the c leaning
fluid to clean the display.
0 Note
T o avoid scratching the MMI display, you should never c lean it dry. •
MMI terminal
- First clean the MMI terminal with a brush to remove dust
from the housing . T
hen w ipe the MM I terminal wit h a clean, so ft, s light ly
dam p cloth.
The M MI termina l shou ld be c leaned w ith a brush first so that no
dirt is trapped between the buttons and the housing. We recom­
mend giving the MMI terminal a fina l w ipe with a c loth moistened
with water and dish washing detergent.
0 Note
To prevent damage, make sure that no fluid ever gets into the MMI
terminal. •
Aluminum trim
Use only neutral -pH produc ts to remove spots and deposits from
aluminum surfaces. Chrome care products and alkaline cleaners
wi ll attack aluminum surfaces and can damage them over time.
& WARNING
Al way s read and h eed all WARNINGS and oth er information
=> page 31 2. •
Fabrics and fabric coverings
Fabrics and fabric coverings (e.g . seats, door trim panels, etc.)
shou ld be c leaned at regular inte rvals with a vacuum cleaner . This
removes surface dirt particles which could become embedded in
the fabric th rough use. Steam cleaners shou ld not be used, because
the steam tends to push the dirt deeper into the fabric and lock it
there .
