play. If only one tyre is affected, the display will
indicate its position.
Each time you change a tyre, change the wheels
round or change the tyre pressures on your vehi­
cle (e.g. when switching from partial load to full
load and vice-versa), you must store the new tyre
pressures on the infotainment system
¢ page 235. Monitoring of the tyre pressures is
based on the tyre pressures you have stored. The
inflation pressures recommended for your vehicle
are given on the tyre pressure sticker
¢ page 233, Fig. 220.
The rolling circumference and vibration can
change and cause a tyre pressure warning if:
- The inflation pressure in one or more tyres is
too low.
- The tyre has suffered structural damage.
- The wheels were changed or the tyre pressures
were changed and the new tyre pressures were
not stored ¢ page 235.
- You are driving with the temporary spare
wheel*.

stop and check the tyres and the tyre pres­
sures.
- It is the driver's responsibility to ensure that
the tyre pressures are correct. For this rea­
son you must check the tyre pressures regu­
larly.
- Under certain conditions (e.g. driving at
high speeds, on ice and snow or on poor
road surfaces) the tyre pressure loss indica­
tor may not appear immediately.
- Run-flat tyres* may only be used on vehicles
which were originally equipped with this
type of tyre.
- If a malfunction occurs in the ESC system,
the tyre pressure loss indicator may also be
out of action.
- When driving with snow chains, a system
malfunction can occur.
- The tyre pressure loss indicator on your Audi
is specially matched to tyres with the mark­
ing "AO" or "RO" ¢ page 231. We recom­
mend that you use these tyres.
Storing tyre pressure settings
Applies to vehicles: with tyre pressure loss indicator
When you change a tyre or the tyre pressure on
your vehicle, you must confirm the change on the
infotainment system.
� Before storing the new tyre pressures, check
that the current pressures on all four wheels
correspond to the specified values and adapt
the pressures to the current load ¢ page 232.
� Switch on the ignition.
� Select the
following on the infotainment sys­
tem: I MENU I button >Car> left control button

ing effect can be delayed by moisture (or in
winter by ice) on the discs and brake pads -
risk of accident! The brakes should be dried
by pressing the pedal to restore full braking
effect.
CD CAUTION
- Before washing the vehicle in an automatic
car wash, please make sure to retract the
exterior mirrors and, if necessary, retract
the automatic rear spoiler* to prevent dam­
age. Always use the electrical power control
to fold the mirrors in/out on vehicles with
electrically retractable exterior mirrors*.

- Keep sparks, flame and lighted cigarettes
away from batteries: the gases given off can
cause an explosion.
- If jump-starting another vehicle, position
the jump Leads in such a way that they can­
not come into contact with any moving
parts in the engine compartment of the oth­
er vehicle.
CD CAUTION
Please note that the above method of con­
necting the Leads is intended for jump-start­
ing your vehicle. If jump-starting another ve­
hicle, you should not connect the negative
lead (-) to the negative terminal of the dis­
charged battery, but directly to the engine
block or a solid metal part bolted to the en­
gin e block. If the battery of the other vehicle
does not have a gas vent, there is a risk that a
mixture of oxygen and hydrogen gas can accu­
mulate and cause an explosion.
@ Note
- The battery is vented to the outside to pre­
vent gases entering the vehicle's interior.
- Connect the battery clamps so they have
good metal-to-metal contact with the bat­
tery terminals.
Tow-starting / towing
away
General notes
Some experience is required to tow or tow-start a
vehicle, especially when using a tow-rope. Both
drivers should be familiar with the technique re­
quired for towing. Inexperienced drivers should
not attempt to tow-start or tow away another ve­
hicle.
Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle and
take care to avoid jerking the tow-rope. When
towing off-road, there is always a risk that the
anchorage points may be overloaded.
Tow-bar / tow-rope
It is easier and safer to tow the vehicle with a
tow-bar. You should only use a tow-rope if you do
250 not
have a tow-bar. It is advisable to use a tow­
rope made of elastic synthetic fibre or similarly
elastic material.
Notes on towing vehicles
The vehicle can be towed with a tow-bar or tow­
rope. When the engine is not running, the gear­
box will not be adequately Lubricated if the fol­
lowing speed/distance restrictions are not ob­
served:
- The vehicle must not be towed faster than
SO km/h.
- The vehicle must not be towed further than
50km.
Additi onal notes on towing by breakdown
truck
If one of the axles has to be raised in order to tow
the vehicle, please refer to the following table to
determine the appropriate axle for your gearbox/
drive combination:

Automatic gearbox Front
axle Front axle
Four-wheel drive: If the vehicle is to be towed
with one of the axles raised, the ignition must be
switched off; otherwise the drive train can be
damaged.
Notes on tow-starting
Automatic gearbox: For technical reasons, your
vehicle must not be tow-started.
Manual gearbox: As a general rule, tow-starting
is not recommended. If the engine will not start,
it is best to try starting it using the battery of an­
other vehicle ¢ page 248 before attempting to
tow start. If this is not possible, you can try to
push-star t or tow-start the vehicle ¢ page 251,
