is obstructed during the closing or opening
process, the respective roof element opens or
closes again immediately.
Closing a roof element after triggering the
force limiter
1. Remove the obstruction.
2. Turn knob to position A again.Electric emergency closing function
Warning!
Risk of injury from the emergency closing
function for the Panorama roof system. The

similar substances:
1. Turn knob to position A.
2. Hold the knob in position A until all roof
elements are completely closed.
Save final position of the Panorama roof
systemAfter disconnecting/reconnecting the vehicle
battery or if the vehicle battery is discharged, or
after emergency starting with jumper cables, the
final positions of the Panorama roof system are
lost.
Warning!
Risk of injury when closing the Panorama
roof system. The force limiter is not available
and the roof elements will close with full
force.
fEnsure that no one can be injured when the Panorama roof system is closing.
1. Switch ignition off.
2. Turn knob to position A.
3. Switch ignition on.
4. Press knob up at its front edge in position A

Driving and Driving Safety
Starting and Stopping the EnginefPlease see the chapter “IMMOBILIZER” on
Page 248.
fPlease see the chapter “EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEM” on Page 263.
Danger!
Risk of poisoning. Exhaust gas contains
colorless and odorless carbon monoxide
(CO), which is toxic even in low concentra-
tion. Carbon monoxide can cause uncon-
sciousness and even death if inhaled.
fNever start or let the engine run in an en-
closed, unventilated area. It is not recommen-
ded to sit in your car for prolonged periods
with the engine on and the car not moving.
An unattended vehicle with a running engine
is potentially hazardous. If warning lights
should come on to indicate improper opera-
tion, they would go unnoticed.
fNever leave the engine idling unattended.
Danger of fire.
fDo not drive or park your car where combus-
tible materials, such as dry grass or leaves,
can come into contact with the hot exhaust
system.
fIf your car catches on fire for any reason, call
the fire department. Do not endanger your life by attempting to put out the fire.
Starting vehiclefOperate footbrake.
fFully depress and hold the clutch pedal. Put the
gearshift lever in neutral or on vehicles with
Tiptronic S:
move the Tiptronic selector lever to position P
or N.
fDo not press the accelerator pedal. The engine
control module will provide the correct starting
mixture.
fTurn ignition key to ignition lock position 2.
fDo not operate the starter longer than approx.
10 seconds. If necessary, repeat the starting
procedure after a pause of approx.
10 seconds. Turn the ignition key back to
ignition lock position 3 first.
Notes on operation
The first operation of the starter is ended auto-
matically when the engine starts.
If the engine does not start, subsequent starter
operations will not be ended automatically.
When the engine ist started, the warning lights
must go out.fDo not warm up the engine when stationary.
Drive off immediately.
Avoid high revolutions and full throttle until the
engine has reached operating temperature.
fIf battery output is insufficient, jump leads can
be used to start the engine.
Please see the chapter “EMERGENCY
STARTING WITH JUMPER CABLES” on
Page 323.
Note on operation
To ensure a good charge condition for the battery
and thus its ability to start the engine, all electrical
accessories which are not required should be
switched off when the ignition is switched on and
when engine revolutions are low (in stop and go
traffic).

Inflating tires on vehicles without air
suspension1. Please follow the operating instructions on the
compressor.
2. Screw filler hose of the compressor onto the
tire valve.
3. Remove cover A of the engine-compartment
cover.
Please see the chapter “CONNECTING
JUMPER CABLES” on Page 324.
+ = Positive terminal for emergency starting
with jumper cables
– = Grounding point for emergency starting
with jumper cables4. Connect clamps of the compressor to the
terminals for emergency starting with jumper
cables.
Always observe the following sequence:
– Open the cap of the positive terminal for emer-
gency starting with jumper cables (+).
– Connect positive lead (red) to the positive
terminal for emergency starting with jumper
cables (+).– Connect negative lead (black) to the negative
terminal for emergency starting with jumper
cables (
–).
Warning!
Danger of burning. The compressor filler
hose can become hot during the inflation
process.
fWear gloves.
5. Switch on compressor.
The required filling pressure will be reached
after a few minutes.
6. Switch off compressor.
7. Check filling pressure with pressure tester.
Then reduce tire pressure or add more air if
necessary. Recheck the filling pressure.
8. Unscrew filler hose of the compressor.Reducing filling pressure on vehicles
without air suspension1. Switch off compressor.
2. Open air bleed screw on the filling hose until
the correct filling pressure is achieved.

Minor Repairs
323
Emergency Starting with Jumper
CablesIf the battery is discharged, e.g. in winter or after
the car has been parked for a long time, the bat-
tery of another car can be used for starting with
the help of jumper cables.
Make sure the voltage of both batteries is the
same.
The capacity (Ampere hours, Ah) of the booster
battery must not be substantially less than that of
the discharged battery.The discharged battery
must be correctly connected to the vehicle's elec-
trical system.
fPlease see the chapter “BATTERY” on
Page 320.
Note
Do not try to start the car by pushing or towing.
Damage to the catalytic converters and other
components of the car may result.
Danger!
Risk of short circuit, damage and explosion,
resulting in serious personal injury or death.
fUse only jumper cables of adequate diameter
cross-section and fitted with completely
insulated alligator clips.
fFollow all warnings and instructions of the
jumper cable manufacturer.
fWhen connecting jumper cables, make sure
that they cannot get caught in any moving
parts in the engine compartment.
The jumper cables must be long enough so
that neither vehicles nor cables touch another.
fThe vehicles must not be in contact, otherwise
current might flow as soon as the positive
terminals are connected.
fThe cable clamps must not be allowed to con-
tact each other when one end of the jumper ca-
bles are connected to a battery.
fCarefully ensure that tools or conductive jewe-
lery (rings, chains, watch straps) do not come
into contact with the positive jumper cable or
the positive battery post.
fImproper hook-up of jumper cables can ruin
the alternator.
Danger of caustic burns.
fDo not lean over the battery.Danger of gas explosion.
fImproper use of booster battery to start a
vehicle may cause an explosion, resulting in
serious personal injury or death.
fKeep sources of ignition away from the
battery, e.g. open flame, burning cigarettes or
sparking due to cable contact or welding work.
fA discharged battery can freeze even at
14 °F (−10 °C). Before connecting jumper
cables, a frozen battery must be thawed out.

Minor Repairs
Connecting jumper cablesAlways observe the sequence below:
1. Remove cover A.
2. Open the cap of the positive terminal for jump
starting(+).
3. Attach the positive lead first to the positive
terminal for jump starting (+), then to the posi-
tive terminal of the donor battery.
4. Connect the negative lead first to the negative
terminal of the donor battery, then to the
grounding point for jump starting (–).
+ = Positive terminal for jump starting
– = Grounding point for jump starting5. Run the engine of the donor car at a higher
speed.
6. Start the engine.
An attempted start using jumper cables should
not last more than 15 seconds. Then allow a
waiting period of at least one minute.
7. Disconnect the negative jumper cable from the
ground point for jump starting (–) first, then
from the negative terminal of the donor
battery.8. Disconnect the positive jumper cable from the
positive terminal of the donor battery first,
then from the positive terminal for jump
starting (+).
9. Close the cap of the positive terminal for jump
starting (+).
