and avoid any hard steering or braking
maneuvers. Stop as soon as possible and
check the tires and their pressures. In
flate the tire pressure to the proper pres
sure as indicated on the vehicle's t ire
pressure label~
page 284 . Driving on a
significantly under-inflated tire causes
the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also is likely to impair the vehicle's handling and stop
ping ability.
- T he driver is responsible for ma inta ining
the correct tire pressures . You must
check the tire pressures regular ly.
- Under certain conditions (such as a spor
ty driving style, winter conditions or unpaved roads), the pressure monitor ind i
cator may be de layed.

flat tires may be used on your veh icle.
Your vehicle registration becomes invalid if you use these tires when not permit
ted . Damage to your veh icle or acc idents
could also result .
(D Tips
-The tire pressure monitoring system
stops working when there is an ESC/ABS
malfunction .
- Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction.
- The tire pressure monitoring system on
your Audi was developed using t ires with
the "AO" or "RO" identification on the
tire sidewall
Q page 291 . We recom
mend using these t ires.
Reset tire pressure monitoring system
If the tire pressure is adjusted , wheels are ro
tated or changed, the TPMS must be reset via
MMI.
.. Before resetting the TPMS, the current pres
sures of all four tires must correspond to
the specified val ues. Adjust the tire pressure

Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized 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 befo re you are able to get to the
bulb. This applies especially to the light bulbs
in the front of your car which yo u can only
reach through the engine compartment.
Sheet metal and bu lb holders can have sharp
edges that can cause se rious cuts, and pa rts
must be correctly taken apart and then prop
erly put back together to help prevent break
age of parts and long term damage from wa
ter that can enter housings that have not been
properly re sea led.
