[ i) Tips
• 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 256.
• Tire pressure must only be adjusted when the temperature of the
tires is about the same as ambient air tempera ture.
• The yellow symbol disappears, when the tire pressure is
correc ted and the new pressure is stored in the system=>
page 256.
• After changing a wheel or replacing a wheel with the spare tire
you have to adjust the tire pressures on all wheels. In addition , you
must then initialize the new tire pressures in the tire pressure moni ­
toring system*=>
page 257. •
Ap plies to vehicles: w ith tir e pressure monitor in g system
Storing tire pressures
Correct storage of specified pressure is the basic require ­
ment for reliable tire pressure monitoring.
Fig. 154 SET-button :
Tire pressure moni­
toring system
In order for the tire pressure monitoring system* to operate
appropriately, you have to re-save the specified pressures
whenever you adjust tire pressures, for example when the
load condition of your vehicle changes . Proceed as follows:
Correcting tire pressure
Check the pressure in the tires.
Adjust air pressure as needed to comply with the infor­ mation on the label located on the driver's side B -pillar
(vis ible when the door is open).
Saving tire pressures
Turn on the ignition.
Press the button=> fig. 154 for app roximately 5 seconds.
You will hear a beep and the symbol in the instrument
cluster flashes three times.
All pressure warning indicators in the display will 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 J Tips
• The tire pressure is shown on the tire pressure label. The tire
pressure label is located on the driver's side B-pillar (visible when
the door is open). The tire pressure label lists the recommended cold tire inflation pressures for the vehicle 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
=> page 238. .,_

system malfunction error message wil l not disappear until the
vehicle is underway . With pressing the button~
page 256, fig. 154,
the re -programming of the new sensors and storing of ac tua l pres ­
sures starts. This learning phase can take up to 10 minutes driving
time .
During the learning process the tire pressure monitoring system* is
not avai lable. •
Applies to veh ic les: with tir e pressure monitoring system
Malfunctions •
A malfunction can have various causes.
F ig . 155 Display:
S yst e m m alfun ctio n
If the .J., warning light in the instrument cluster flashes for approxi­
mately one minute and then remains continuously illuminated and
additional ly the T ~~ fig. 155 symbol appears in the display, the
tire pressure mon itoring system* is not available. This can have
various causes.
• If the message appears at the end of the lear ning process, the
system cannot recognize the wheels installed on the vehicle. This
can be because one or more wheels without a wheel sensor were
insta lled.
• A wheel sensor or other component may have failed .
• During initialization 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*.
• A whee l change was made but the button
~ page 256 , fig. 154
was not pressed.
• Audi replacement parts were not used.
• I f snow chains are being used, system function can be compro ­
mised due to the shielding properties of the chains .

Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have your autho­
rized Audi dealer replace burned out bulbs for you.
It is becoming increasingly more and more difficult to replace
vehicle light bulbs since in many cases , other parts of the car must
first be removed before you are able to get to the bulb. This applies
especially to the light bulbs in the front of your car which you can
only reach through the engine compartment.
Sheet metal and bulb holders can have sharp edges that can cause
serious cuts, and parts must be correctly taken apart and then prop­
erly put back together to help prevent breakage of parts and long
term damage from water that can enter housings that have not been properly resealed.
For your safety , we recommend that you have your authorized Audi
dealer replace any bulbs for you, since your dealer has the proper
tools, the correct bulbs and the expertise.
Gas discharge lamps (Xenon lights)*:
•
Due to the high electrical voltage, have the bulbs replaced by a qual­
ified technician. Headlights with Xenon light can be identified by the
high voltage sticker .
& WARNING
Contact with high-voltage components of the electrical system
and improper replacement of gas discharge (Xenon) headlight
bulbs can cause serious personal injury and death .
• Xenon bulbs are pressurized and can explode when being
changed.
• Changing Xenon lamps requires the special training, instruc ­
tions and equipment .
• Only an authorized Audi dealer or other qualified workshop
should change the bulbs in gas discharge lamps.
& WARNING
There are parts with sharp edges on the openings and on the bulb holders that can cause serious cuts .
• If you are uncertain about what to do, have the work performed
by an authorized Audi dealer or other qualified workshop. Serious
personal injury may result from improperly performed work.
[ i] Tips
• If you must replace the light bulbs yourself, always remember
that the engine compartment of any vehicle is a hazardous area to
work in. Always read and heed all WARNINGS=>
page 209, "Engine
compartment"=>
/A .
• It is best to ask your authorized Audi dealer whenever you need
to change a bulb .•

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.
Controls and equip­ ment Safety first Vehicle operation
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 weight.
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 8 -pillar or inside the fuel filler flap.
Roof weight
The maximum permissible roof weight is 165 lb (75 kg). The roof
weight is made up of the weight of the roof rack system and the
weight of the object being transported
~ page 80, "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 vehicle weight. Always remember that the vehicle's .,_

& WARNING (continued)
• The engine compartment of any motor vehicle is a potentially
hazardous area. Never reach into the area around or touch the
radiator fan. It is temperature controlled and can switch on
suddenly -even when the engine is off and the ignition key has
been removed. The radiator fan switches on automatically when
the coolant reaches a certain temperature and will continue to run
until the coolant temperature drops .
• Always remove the ignition key before anyone gets under the
vehicle.
• Always support your vehicle with safety stands if it is neces­
sary to work underneath the vehicle. The jack supplied with the
vehicle is not adequate for this purpose and could collapse
causing serious personal injury.
• If you must work underneath the vehicle with the wheels on
the ground, always make sure the vehicle is on level ground, that
the wheels are always securely blocked and that the engine
cannot be started .
• Always make sure the transmission selector lever (automatic
transmission) is in "P" (Park position) (automatic transmission) or
Neutral (manual transmission) and the hand brake is firmly
applied.
<£> For the sake of the environment
• Changing the engine settings will adversely affect emission
levels. This is detrimental to the environment and increases fuel
consumption .
• Always observe environmental regulations when disposing of
old engine oil, used brake fluid, dirty engine coolant, spent batteries
or worn out tires.
• Undeployed airbag modules and pretensioners might be classi ­
fied as Perchlorate Material -special handling may apply, see
www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate . When the vehicle or
parts of the restraint system including airbag modules safety belts
Controls and equip­ ment Safety first Vehicle operation with pretensioners are scrapped, all applicable laws and regula­
tions must be observed. Your authorized Audi dealer is familiar with
these requirements and we recommend that you have your dealer
perform this service for you. •
