2011 AUDI A5 CABRIOLET fuel pump

Driver information display
Current fuel mileage
The instantaneous fuel consumption in miles per gallon (l/100 km) is
shown in this display. You can use th is display to adjust your driving
technique to achieve a desired mi leage.
Fuel consumption is reca lculated at intervals of 33 yards (30 meters).
This display switches to gallons/hour (liters/hour) when the vehicle is
not moving .
Average speed
The average speed in mph (km/h) since the last time the display was
reset appears in the display.
Elapsed time
Th e length of time that you have been driving since you last reset the
memory appears in this display.
Distance
The distance that has been cove red since the last time the memory
was cleared appears in the display.
[I) Tips
• Fuel consumptions (average and current), range and speed are
displayed in metr ic units on Canad ian models.
• All stored values will be lost if the vehicle battery is
disconnected . •
Memories
The trip computer is equipped with two fully automatic
memories as well as an efficiency program.

You can switch between the trip computer 1 and 2 and the efficiency
program* by pressing the [
RESET] button@=> page 23, fig. 16.
You can tell which memory level is currently active by the number or
the sign in the display=> fig . 15. The data from the single-trip
memory (memory level 1) is being disp layed if a
1 appears in the
display. If a
2 is shown, then the data from the total-trip memory is
being disp layed (memory level 2). The fuel pump nozzle
ii1 ind icates
the efficiency program*=>
page 24.
Single-trip memory (Trip computer 1)
The single-trip memory stores the trip information from the time the
ignition is turned on until it is turned off. If the tr ip is cont inued
within 2 hours from the time the ign ition was turned off, the new
data will be incl uded in the calculation of the current trip inf orma­
tion. If the trip is interrupted for
more than 2 hours the memory is
reset automa tically.
Total-trip memory (Trip computer 2)
Unlike the sing le-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not reset
automatically. This permits you to evaluate your driving data for the
entire period between manual resets.

Gasoline
Fuel supply
Using the right fuel helps keep the environment clean and
prevents engine damage.
Fuel recommendation
The f ue l recommended for yo ur vehicle is unleaded premium grade
gasoline. See also=>
page 342, "D at a". Aud i recommends using TO P
TIER Detergent Gasoline with a m inimum octane rating of 91 AKI (9S
R ON ). For more inform ation on TOP TIE R De tergent Gasoline, please
go to the official website (www .topt iergas .com) .
Th e recommended gasoline octane rating for your engine can a lso be
found on a labe l located o n the i nside of t he fue l fille r flap. This rating
may be specified as AKI o r RON .
Yo ur vehicle may a lso be opera ted u sing unle aded reg ula r gaso line
w ith a minim um octane rating of 87 AKI/91 RON. However, using 87
AKI/91 RON octane fue l will slig htly reduce engi ne pe rformance.
Use unleaded gasoline only . Unleaded gaso line is available
througho ut the USA, Canada, and in most E uropean countries. We
recommend tha t you do not take your ve hicl e to a reas or countries
where unleaded gasoline may not be availab le.
For mo re in format io n on refueling your vehi cle, see =>
page 275 .
Octane rating
Octane r atin g indica tes a gaso line's ability to resis t eng ine dam ag ing
"knock" caused by premature ignition and detonatio n. Therefore,
buying the co rr ec t gr ade o f gas oline is very im port an t to help prevent
poss ible engine damage and a loss of engi ne performance .
Gaso line most common ly used in the United States and Canada has
the following octa ne rat ings that can usually be fou nd on the filler
pump: •
Premium Grade : 9 1 -96 AKI
• Regu lar Grade: 87 - 90 AKI
E xp lanation o f the a bbrev iations:
AKI= Anti Knock Index= (R +M)/2 = (RON+MON)/2
RON= Resea rch Octane Number
M ON= M otor Octane Number.
(D Note
• Do not use any f uel w ith oc tane ra tings lower than 87 AKI or 91
RO N othe rw ise ex pensive engine damage will occu r.
• Do
not use leade d gasoline. The use of leaded gasoline w ill
severely damage you r vehicle's catalytic co nve rter and i ts ab ility to
control exhaust emissions.•
Blended gasoline
Use of gasoline containing alcohol or MTBE (methyl
tertiary butyl ether)
You may use unleade d gasoline blended w ith alcoho l or M TBE
( c ommon ly refe rred to as oxygenates) if the blen ded mixture meets
the fo llowing c riter ia:
Blend of g asoline methanol (wood alcohol or methyl alcohol)
• Anti -k nock inde x must be 87 AKI or higher.
• B lend must con tain no mo re t han 3% met hano l.
• Blend must contain more than 2% co-solvents.
Blend of gasoline and ethanol (grain alcohol or ethyl alcohol)
• Anti- knock index must be 87 AKI o r higher.
• B lend must no t conta in mo re than 10% e thanol.

Fuel supply and filling your fuel tank
In order to fill the tank properly while protecting the environment,
please follow this refueling procedure carefully.
& WARNING
Under normal operating conditions, never carry additional fuel
containers in your car. Gas canisters and other containers used to
transport fuel can be dangerous. Such containers, full or empty,
may leak and could cause a fire in a collision. If you must transport
fuel to use for your lawn mower, snow blower, etc., be very careful
and always observe local and state laws regarding the use, trans­
portation and storage of such fuel containers. Make certain the
container meets industry standards (ANSI/ASTM F852 -86).
0 Note
Never drive your vehicle until the fuel tank is completely empty . The
irregular supply of fuel can cause misfiring. Gasoline could enter the
exhaust system and damage the catalytic converter. •

& WARNING
Improper refueling or handling of fuel can cause fire, explosion
and severe burns.
• Fuel is highly flammable and can cause severe burns and other
injuries.
• Failure to shut the engine off while refueling and/or to insert
the pump nozzle fully into the fuel filler neck could cause fuel to
spray out of filler neck or to overflow. Fuel spray and overflowing
fuel can cause a fire.
• Never use a cellular telephone while refueling. The electromag­
netic radiation can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors and
cause a fire.
• Never get back into your vehicle while refueling. If in excep­
tional circumstances you must get back in your vehicle while refu­
eling, make certain that you close the door and touch metal to
discharge static electr icity before touching the filler nozzle again .
Static electricity can cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors
released during refueling.
• Never smoke o r have an open flame anywhere in or near your
vehicle when refueling or filling a portable fuel container.
• For your safety , we strongly recommend that you do not travel
with a portable fuel container in your vehicle. The container, full or empty may leak and could cause a fire, especially in a crash.
• If, under except ional circumstances, you must transport a
portable fuel container , please obser ve the following:
- Never fill a portable fuel container while it is anywhere in or
on the vehicle (for example, in the luggage compartment, or
on the trunk ). Static electricity can build up while filling and
can ignite fuel vapors causing a fire.
- Always place a portable fuel container on the ground before
filling.
Safety first
& WARNING (co ntinued )
-Alw ays keep the filler nozzle completely inside the portable
container before and during filling.
- If filling a portable container made of metal, the filler nozzle
must always be in contact with the container . Th is will help
prevent static electricity from discharging and cause a fire.
- Never spill fuel inside the veh icle or luggage compartment .
Fuel vapors are highly flammable.
- Always observe local and state/provincial laws regarding the
use, storage and transportation of fuel containers.
- Make certain the fuel containe r meets industry standards
(ANSI/ ASTM F8S2-86).
0 Note
If any f uel has spilled onto the ca r, it should be remove d immed iate ly
to prevent damage to the paint.
As soon as the co rrectly operated nozzle switches off a utomat ica lly
for t he firs t time, the tan k is full. Do no t try to ad d mo re fuel because
fue l may spill ou t. In addi tion, the ex pansion space in the fuel tank
will be fi lled - causing the fue l to overf low w hen it becomes warm and
poll ute the enviro nmen t.
(I] Tips
• Runn ing your engi ne while re fuelling may c ause vapors to es cape
or even cause f uel to spill out of t he tank. This would then shut off the
fue l no zzle before the tank is full.
• Do not ref ue l your veh icle with t he ignit io n turned on . T he fuel
gauge may o therwise no t ind ica te t he correct f ue l level af ter refuel-
ling . .,_
