Battery
General information
Your vehicle is equipped with a specia l battery, an AGM battery. This
ba ttery is loca ted in the luggage compar tment and must be
replaced with an original equipment battery. Under normal oper­
ating conditions, the battery is
ma inten anc e-free .
Have the battery checked when you take your vehicle in for service .
You a re well advised to replace a battery that is o lder than 5 years .
Disconn ecting th e batt ery te rmin als
Some vehicle functions (power w indow regulators, for example) are
lost if the battery terminals are disconnected. These functions have
to be relearned after the battery terminals are connected again. To prevent this, the battery should only be disconnected from the
vehic le electrical sys tem when abso lutely necessary for repairs .
Vehi cles not dri ven for lo ng p eriods
If you are going to let your vehic le stand for a long time and n ot
drive it, you should remember there are e lectrica l components
whic h are still functioning and they will draw energy from the
battery and drain it, for example, the engine immobilizer. To prevent
t his, you can eithe r charge the batte ry occasionally to keep it in
good working condition or you can disconnect the negative cable
on the battery.
W int er op erati on
During the winter months, batte ry capacity tends to decrease as
temperatures drop . This is because more power is also consumed
whi le starting, and the headlights, rear window defogger, etc ., are
used more often.
Avoid unnecessary power consumption, particularly in city traffic or
when trave ling o nly short distances . Let your authorized Audi dealer
check the capacity of the vehicle battery before winter sets in
~ page 232. A we ll charged battery will not only preven t starting
problems when the weather is cold, but will also last longer.
Repla cing batter y
The new battery must hav e the same capacity, voltage ( 12 volts),
amperage, construction and p lug sea ling, as the orig inal battery .
Specifications are listed on the battery housing. Batteries specia lly
developed by Aud i fulfill the main tenance, output, and safe ty
requirements. ...,

When instal ling the battery, make sure the ignition and all electrica l
consumers are switched off~
0.
We recommend that you use maintenance -free or c yc le-re sis­
tant/leak -proof
batteries according to the standards TL 825 06 (from
December 1997) and VW 7 50 73 (from August 2001 ) .
Rep lacing the battery should be carried by a qualified workshop .
Please follow the instruct ions on the battery cover.
0 Note
• All work on the battery requ ires technical knowledge . Please
contact an Audi dealership or another authorized facility for ques ­
t ions about the battery -dange r of acid burns and explosion hazard!
• T he battery must not be opened! Do not try to change the
battery 's liquid level, otherwise detona ting gas will escape from the
battery -explosion hazard I
• The AGM battery in the luggage compartmen t cannot lea k,
because the electrolyte for this battery is absorbed into a special
glass mat. Th is leak -proof battery must not be replace with a
conventional battery .
• Make sure the ventilation hose on the side of the battery is
connected, otherwise fumes or battery acid can leak out.
• Battery holder and term inals a lways have to be secured correctly.
• Before all work on the battery follow the
warnings below ~ & in
"Wor king on the battery" on
page 229 .
ci' For the sake of the environment
Because of the proble m of proper d isposal of a battery, we recom ­
mend your authorized Audi dealer change the battery for you.
Batteries contain sul furic acid and lead and m ust always be
disposed of properly in compliance with all environmenta l regula ­
t ions. Disposing of vehic le batteries improperly is ve ry dangerous to
the environment . Make sure that the removed battery cannot over­
balance, otherwise su lfur ic ac id might escape!
[ i ] Tip s
If your vehic le is left standing for severa l weeks at extreme ly low
temperatures, the vehicle battery should be removed and stored
where it will not freeze. Th is will prevent it from being damaged and
having to be replaced .•

Run-flat tires
Ap plies to ve hic les : w it h R un -f la t tires
Introduction
Run-flat tires help keep you moving if a tire goes flat.
Re inforced sidewalls give the tires run -flat capability if t ire pressure
is lost .
We recommend that run -flat tires only be mounted on vehicles that
were origina lly equipped with these special tires at the factory and
have a Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
Run-flat tire s can be identified by the letter s "RSC" on the tire side ­
wa ll.
If you do change the tires on you r vehicle from normal to run -flat
tires , you must buy the special rims required for run -flat tires, and
the Tire Pressure Mon itoring System must be reprogrammed by an
authorized Audi dea ler or other qual ified workshop.
What do run -fl at tires do ?
These specia l tires have run-flat capabilities that help keep you
moving if a tire loses pressure and goes flat. Under favorab le condi -tions tires can be driven
a
t lea st 30 mile s (50 km ), but you must not
drive
fa ster than 50 mph (80 km/h )=> page 259, "Driving with run ­
flat tires".
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System constant ly checks the air pres ­
sure in the tires. If the run-flat system is active (shown in the center
display), you must inspect the affected t ire or t ires and then decide
whether to cont inue dr iving. Be sure to fol low these tips
=> page 259, "Driving with run -flat tir es" .
When it is n ot po ssible to c ontinue dri ving, ev en with
run-flat tir es?
• I f the Electronic Stabi lization Program (ESP) is not work ing o r
keeps coming on.
• I f the Tire Pressure Monitoring System does not work.
• I f the tire has been severely damaged, in a crash, for example .
T he t read can separate from a damaged tire as the wheel turns , and
hit parts of the vehicle, such as the fuel tank filler neck, fuel lines or
brake lines.
• Do not con tin ue d riving if severe vibra tion occurs or if the tire
starts to smoke because the tire is running hot.
• Do not conti nue drivi ng if da mage to the tire, such as cracks in
the sidewal l, appears .
& WARNING
Improper use of run -fl at tires can cause ve hic le da mage th at can
le ad to los s of vehicle control , a crash and seriou s personal injury .
• Run-flat t ires can only be used w ith spe cial rims .
• Run -fl at tires must always be monitored with a properly
programmed Tire Pre ssure Monitoring Sy stem.
• Alway s inspect a tire that ha s lo st air to make sure it i s safe to
drive with the tire in the run -flat mode .
• Never dr ive with run -fl at tire s th at have been dam aged in a
colli sion.
