The safety switch ®
c:> page 43, fig. 40 in the
armrest on the driver's door turns off the rear
power windows. Only when the safety switch
is depressed can the rear windows be opened
or closed. The symbol in the safety sw itch illu­
minates when the power windows in the rear
doors are switched off (button NOT de­
p ressed). This feature has been provided for
the safety of small children riding in the rear
of the vehicle.
(D Tips
The windows can still be opened and
closed for about ten minutes after the ig­
nition has been turned off. The power w in­
dows are not shut off unt il one of the front
doors is opened.
' Convenience close/open feature
You can close or open the windows from out­
side when you lock or unlock your car with the
key.

General description on page 37 .

Energy management
Starting ability is optimized
Energy management controls the distribution
of electrical energy and thus optimizes the
availability of electrical energy for starting the engine .
If a vehicle with a conventional energy system
is not driven for a long period of time , the bat­
tery is discharged by idling current consumers
(e.g. immobilizer). In ce rtain c ircumstances it
can result in there being insuff icient ene rgy
avai lab le to start the engine .
Intell igent energy management in your vehi­
cle hand les the d istribution of electrical ener­
gy. Starting ab il ity is markedly improved and
the life of the battery is extended.
Basically, energy management consists of
batt ery di agno sis, idlin g current man ag e­
m ent
and dyn ami c en ergy m anage ment .
Batter y diagnosis
Battery diagnosis continuously determines
the state of the battery . Sensors determ ine
battery vo ltage, battery current and battery
temperature. This dete rm ines the current
state of charge and the powe r of the battery.
Idling curr ent man agement
Idling current management reduces ene rgy
consumption while the vehicle is stand ing .
W ith the ignition switched off, it cont ro ls the
energy supply to the va rious electr ical compo ­
nents . Data from battery diagnosis is consid­
ered.
Depending on the battery's state of charge,
i nd ividua l consumers are gradual ly t urned off
to prevent excess ive d ischarge of the bat tery
and thus maintain starting capability .
Dynamic en ergy management
While the vehicle is being driven, dynamic en­
e rgy management dist ributes the energy gen­
e rated according to the needs of the individu­
a l components.
It reg ulates cons umption, so
that more electrical energy is not being used
Int ellig ent technolog y 167
than is being generated and ensures an opti ­
mal state of charge for the battery.
(0 Tips
- But even energy management canno t
negate the limits of physics . Consider
that the power and life of a battery are
limited .
- If starting ability is threatened, you are
informed by a warning
r:!) page 168,
Driver notification in the instrument
cluster display.
What you should know
The highest priority is given to maintaining
starting capability.
The battery is severe ly taxed in short -distance
driving, in city traffic and during the cold time
of year. Abundant electrical energy is re­ quired, but only a little is generated .
It is also
critical if the engine is not running and electri­
cal components are turned on . In this in­
stance energy is be ing consumed but none is
being generated.
It is in precisely these situations that you will
notice energy management actively regulat ­
ing the d istribution of energy .
Vehicle stands for an e xtended peri od
If you do not drive your vehicle over a period
of several days or weeks, e lectr ical compo­
nents are gradually cut back or switched off.
This reduces energy consumption and ma in ­
ta ins start ing capability over a longer period .
Take into considerat ion that when you unlock
your vehicle, some convenience functions, such as the remote key or power seat adjust­
ment, may not be available . The conven ience
funct ions w ill be available again when you
tu rn on the ignition and start the engine .
With the engine turned off
If you listen to the radio, for example, w ith
the engine turned off, the battery is being d is-
charged.

Because of the problem of proper disposal
of brake fluid as we ll as the special tools
req uired and the necessary expert ise, we
recommend that you have the brake fluid
changed by your author ized Audi dealer.
Battery
General information
All work on the battery requires technical
knowledge!
F ig . 1 64 Eng ine co mpa rtment: Batte ry w it h cover*
The battery is located in the engine compart­
ment
c::> fig. 164 and is near ly m ain te nance­
fre e.
The condition of the battery is checked in the
framework of the inspection.
Disconnecting the battery
The batte ry should not be disconnected. Some
ve hicl e functions such as power windows are
unavailable if the battery termina ls are dis­
connected. These funct ions have to be re­
l earned after the battery term inals are con­
nected aga in. To prevent this, the battery
should only be disconnected from the vehicle
electrical system if absolutely necessary .

Vehicl es not driven for long periods and
sho rt -d is tance op eration
If you do no t drive your vehicle for several
days or weeks, electrical consumers are grad ­
u ally scaled back or switched off . This reduces
energy use and ensures the vehicle will be
able to start after long periods of time
c::, page 167. Some convenience functions
such as opening w it h the remote control key
may not be available. These conve nience func­
tions wi ll be available again once you switch
the ignit io n on and sta rt the engine. Even
whe n consume rs a re switched off, the battery
will become deeply discharged by stand -by
power consumers if the vehicle is not driven
for several months . Deep discharging results
in a chemical reaction that destroys the inside
of the battery. The battery must be charged
every month to prevent th is
c::, page 209. Do
not disconnect the battery or the anti-t heft
alarm system* will not work .
Winter operation
Cold weather places higher demands on the
battery. This results in reduced starting abili­
ty. Have the battery checked and recharged if
necessary befo re the cold weather begins.
Avoid unnecessary power consumpt ion, par­
ticularly in city traffic or when traveling only
short distances . Let your authorized Audi
dealer check the capacity of the vehicle bat­
tery before winter sets in
c::, page 209 . A well
c harged bat tery will not o nly prevent s tarti ng
problems when the weather is cold, but will
also last longer .

26 2 Con sumer Inf ormation
Installing/replacing a sound system
If yo u w ish to insta ll a radio or replace the fac­
tory inst alled rad io, p lease note the following:
The factory installed radio connectors are de­
signed for genui ne Aud i radios . When insta l­
l ing a different rad io, d iff icu lties could arise
such as:
- the radio may not fit into the space provided
- the electrical connections may not be com- patible
- different connector terminals may be need­
ed .
Therefore, we recommend that you have yo ur
authorized Audi dealer install or replace the
radio.
They are the most fam il iar with the tech nica l
feat ures of your vehicle . T hey a lso offer Gen u­
ine Audi Radios with the necessary insta lla ­
tion components and instructions .
A WARNIN(i
Improperly installing a radio cou ld cause a
short circuit and an electr ical fire.
Technical Modifications
Our guidelines must be complied with when
technical modifications ore mode.
A lways consult an authorized Aud i dealer be­
fo re starting work on any modifications .
This will help ensu re that vehicle funct ion,
performance and safety are not impaired
¢ ,&. .
Attempting to work on elect ron ic components
and the software used with them ca n cause
malfunc tions. Because of the way electronic
components are interconnected with each
other, such malfunctions can also have an ad­
verse affect on other systems that are not di­ rectly invo lved. This means that yo u risk both
a substantial reduction in the operational
safety of your vehicle and an increased wear of
vehicle parts¢,&. . Authorized Audi dea
le rs will perform this
work in a professional and competent manner or, in specia l cases, refer you to a professiona l
company that speciali zes in such modifica­
t ions .
A WARNING
=
Improper repa irs and modifications can
change t he way vehicle systems work and
cause ser ious personal injury .
(D Note
If emergency repairs must be performed
elsewhere, have the vehicle exam ined by
an authorized Audi dealership as soon as possib le .
