2011 AUDI A5 COUPE length

Current fuel mileage
The instantaneous fuel consumption in miles per gallon (l/100 km) is
show n in this display . You can use this disp lay to adjust your driv ing
technique to achieve a desired mileage.
Fuel consumption is recalculated at intervals of 33 yards (30 meters).
Th is 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
The length of time that you have been driving since you last reset the
memory appears in this display.
Distance
The distance that has been covered 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 metric units on Canadian models.
• All stored values will be lost if the vehicle battery is

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 26, fig . 17 .
You can tell which memory level is currently active by the number or
the sign in the display => fig. 16. The data from the single-trip
memory (memory leve l 1) is being displayed if a
1 appears in the
display . If a
2 is shown, then the data from the total -trip memory is
being displayed (memory level 2). The fuel pump nozzle
ii indicates
the efficiency program*=>
page 27.
Single-trip memory (Trip computer 1)
The sing le-trip memory stores the trip information from the time the
ignition is turned on until it is turned off. If the trip is continued
within 2 hours from the time the ignition was turned off, the new
data will be included in the calculation of the current trip informa­
tion.
If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours the memory is
reset automatically.
Total-tr ip memory (Trip computer 2)
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not reset
automatically. This permits you to evaluate your driving data for the
entire pe riod between manual resets. _..

or careless seat adjustment can p inch fingers or hands causing
injuries .
• While the vehicle is moving , the seat backs of the front seats
must not be inclined too far to the rear be cause the effectiveness
of the safety belts and the ai rbag system is severely compromised

Driving and environment
------------------------------------------------'
depending upon vehicle load and speed, road and weather conditions,
trip length, etc. •
Drive smoothly and keep a lookout ahead
Vehicles use the most fuel when they are accelerating .
-Avoid unnecessary accelerating and braking.
Vehicles use the most fuel when they are accelerating. If you antici­
pate what is going to happen next, you will need to brake less and,
thus, accelerate less. Let the vehicle coast whenever possible - for
example when you see that the next traffic light is red.
Avoid full throttle
Driving at moderate speeds saves fuel and improves your
mileage.
- Try and keep well below your car's maximum speed.
Accelerating gently reduces fuel consumption, engine wear, and does
not disturb the environment .
Fuel consumption, exhaust emissions and eng ine noise increase
disproportionately at high speeds . If you drive at approximately three
quarters of top speed, fuel consumption will be reduced by one half.
Never drive faster than the posted speed limit and weather condi­
tions permit. •
Reducin~ unnecessary idling
Even when your car is just idling it burns up fuel.
-Shut the engine off when you are not driving the vehic le .
- Do not warm up the vehicle by letting the engine run at
idle.
Controls and equip­ ment Safety first Vehicle operation It makes sense to shut off the engine in traffic jams, when waiting for
trains to pass at railroad crossings, or at traffic lights that have long
waits on red. Turning the engine off for just 30 -40 seconds saves
more fuel than is burned starting the engine again .
It takes a long t ime for the engine to warm up fully when it is running
at idle. However, wear and noxious emissions are especia lly high
when the eng ine is warming up. So you should dr ive away as soon as
you start the engine and avoid running at high rpms while the engine
is still warming up.
0 Note
Do not leave engine idling unattended after starting . If warning
lights should come on to indicate improper operation, they would go
unheeded. Extended idling also produces heat, which could result in
overheat ing or other damage to the vehicle or other property. •
Regular maintenance
A badly tuned engine unnecessarily wastes a lot of fuel .
- Have your vehic le serviced at regular intervals .
By having your vehicle regularly serviced by an authorized Audi dealer
helps to ensure that it runs properly and economically . The condit ion
of your vehicle not on ly affects its safety and ability to hold its val ue,
it also affects fuel consumption.
Check your oil each time you fill your tank.
Th e amount of oil used is related to engine load and speed.
It is normal for the oil consumption of a new engine to reach its
lowest value after a certain mileage has been driven.
You must dr ive your veh icle about 3,000 miles (5,000 kilometers)
before you can properly assess oi l consumption .
Thi s also applies to fuel consumption and eng ine output.

& WA RNING (conti nu ed )
• Winter t ires have ma ximum speed rating that may be lower
than your vehicle' s maximum speed .
• Never drive faster than the speed for which the winter or other
tires installed on your vehicle are rated .
& WARNING
Always adjust your driving to the road and t raffic conditions.
Never let the good ac celeration of the winter tire s and all-wheel
drive tempt you into taking extra risks . Always remember:
• Wh en braking, an alt-wheel drive vehicle handle s in the same
way as a front drive vehicle.
• Drive carefully and reduce your speed on icy and slippery roads,
even w inter tires cannot help under black ice conditions.
~ For the sake of the environment
Use summe r tires when weather condit ions permit. They are quieter,
do not wea r as quickly and redu ce fuel consumpt io n.•
Snow chains
Snow c hains may be fitted only to the front wheels, and only to
certain tire sizes. Ask your authorized Audi dealer on which tire sizes
snow chains c an be u sed.
T he snow cha ins must have low-profile links and m ust not be thicker
t han 0 .53 in ch ( 13 .5 mm), incl uding the lock .
Remove wheel center covers and t rim discs befor e put ting snow
chains on your vehicle=:,
0. For safety reasons cover caps must then
be fi tted ove r th e wheel bo lts. These a re available from auth orized
Audi dealers.
& WARNING
Using the wrong snow chains for your veh icle or installing them
in correctly can incre ase the risk of loss of control le ading to
serious personal injury.
• Snow chains are available in different size s. Always make sure
to follow the instructions provided by the snow chain manufac ­
turer .
• When driving with snow chains never dri ve faster than the
s peed permitted for your specific snow chain s.
• Always observe local regulations.
0 Note
• Remove snow chains before d riving on roads not covered with
s now to avoid d am ag ing t ires and wear ing t he snow chains dow n
unnecessarily.
• Snow chains, which come into direct contact with the wheel rim,
can scratch o r damage it. Therefo re, make sure that the snow chains
are sui tably cove red. C heck t he pos it ion of the snow cha in s a ft e r
dr iving a few yards and correct if necessary . Fo llow the instruct ions
from t he snow ch ain man ufactur er when doing so.
[ i ] Tips
Whe re snow chains are mandatory on certain roads, t his normally
also app lies to ve hicles with all wheel drive. •
Wheel bolts
Wheel bolts must al ways be tightened to the c orrect
torque .
The desig n of wheel bo lts is matched to the factory installed rims. If
differen t rims a re fitted, the co rrect wheel bolts wi th the r ig ht length
and correctly shaped bolt heads must be used. This e nsures that ..,_
