Fuses
Replacing a fuse
A problem in the electrical system may be caused by a
blown fuse.
Fig. 293 Instrument
panel left: Face cover
Fig . 294 Instrument
panel left: Content
Face cover
-Locate the fuse which belongs to the component which
failed.
Switch off the ignition and the electrical component
affected. -
Carefully pry the face cover off the instrument panel
using the ignition key or a screwdriver~ fig. 293.
- Remove the plastic clip@ from its retainer in the face
cover~ fig. 294, place it over the questionable fuse and
remove the fuse.
- Replace a blown fuse (recognizable by the melted metal
strip inside) with a fuse of the
same amperage.
The individual circuits are protected by fuses. The fuse panels with
the fuses are located on the left and right front faces of the instru­
ment panel behind a cover and in the left and right storage areas in
the luggage compartment.
There is a plastic clip@ in the cover on the left side of the instru ­
ment panel, which can be used to remove the fuses. The crank © is
used for emergency operation of the power roof*. You will also find
a label on both covers in the instrument panel with the fuse layout
© for the corresponding fuse panel.
& WARNING
Never replace a fuse with one that has a higher amperage rating.
• A fuse with a too high amperage could damage the electrical
part and cause a fire.
(D Note
• On no account should fuses be repaired (e.g. patched up with tin
foil or wire) as this may cause serious damage elsewhere in the elec­
trical circuit or cause fire.
• If a fuse blows repeatedly, do not keep replacing it. Instead, have
the cause of the repeated short circuit or overload located and fixed . .,_

[ i J Tip s
You are wel l advised to keep a supply of spare fuses in your vehic le.
Fuses with the proper ampere ratings are available at your Audi
dealer. •

& WARNING
• To reduce the risk of serious injury and vehicle damage .
- Always lift the vehicle only at the special workshop hoist and
floor jack lift points illustrated
=> page 371 , fig . 306 and
=> fig. 307.
- Failure to lift the vehicle at these points could cause the
vehicle to tilt or fall from a lift if there is a change in vehicle
weight distribution and balance. This might happen , for
example, when heavy components such as the engine block or
transmission are removed .
• When removing heavy components like these, anchor vehicle
to hoist or add corresponding weights to maintain the center of gravity. Otherwise , the vehicle might tilt or slip off the hoist,
causing serious personal injury .
0 Note
• Be awar e of the following points be fore liftin g the vehicle :
- The vehicle should never be lifted or jacked up from under­
neath the engine oil pan , the transmission housing , the front or
rear axle or the body side members . This could lead to serious
damage .
- To avoid damage to the underbody or chassis frame, a rubber
pad must be inserted between the floor jack and the lift points .
- Before driving over a workshop hoist, check that the vehicle
weight does not exceed the permissible lifting capacity of the hoist . _..

Weights
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR), and the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) for front and rear are listed on a sticker on the left
door jamb.
The Gross Vehicle Weight Rating includes the weight of the basic
vehicle plus full fuel tank, oil and coolant, plus maximum load,
which includes passenger weight (150 lbs/68 kg per designated
seating position) and luggage w eight .
Gross Axle Weight Rating
The Gross Axle Weight Rating is the maximum load that can be
applied at each axle of the vehicle~& .
Vehicle capacity weight
The vehicle capacity weight (max. load) is listed either on the
driver's side B -pillar or inside the fuel fill er flap .
Roof weight
The maximum permissible roof weight is 220 lb (100 kg). The roof
weight is made up of the weight of the roof rack system and the
weight of the object being transported~ page 104, "Loading the
roof rack".
& WARNING
• The actual Gross Axle Weight Rating at the front and rear axles
should not exceed the permissible weights, and their combination
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.
• Exceeding permissible weight ratings can result in vehicle
damage, accidents and personal injury.

0 Note
• The vehicle capacity weight figures apply when the load is
distributed evenly in the vehicle (passengers and luggage). When
transporting a heavy load in the luggage compartment, carry the
load as near to the rear axle as possible so that the vehicle's
handling is not impaired.
• Do not exceed the maximum permissible axle loads or the
maximum gross vehic le weight. Always remember that the vehic le's
handling will be affected by the extra load. Therefore, adjust your
speed accordingly .
• Always observe local regulations. •
Dimensions
The specifications refer to the basic model. Differences may occur
depending on the mode l type and options ordered, for example, tire
sizes.
0 Note
When driving up steep ramps, on rough roads, over curbs, etc. it is
important to remember that some parts of your vehicle, such as
spoilers or exhaust system components, may be close to the
ground. Be careful not to damage them. •
