different vehicle, your vehicle may slip off
the jack -risk of injury!
- Apply the jack* only at the jacking points Lo­
cated behind the markings on the door sill

as a result of variations in Loading.
- Never start the engine when the vehicle is
on the jack -risk of accident!
- If work has to be done under the vehicle, en­
sure that it is safely supported on suitable
stands -risk of injury!

Snow chains
For technical reasons, snow chains must not be
used on the compact temporary spare wheel.
Sheu ld you have a puncture on one of the front
wheels when using snow chains, fit the compact
temporary spare wheel in place of one of the rear
wheels. You can then attach the snow chains to
the wheel taken from the rear and use this wheel
to replace the punctured front wheel.
A WARNING
- The tyre pressure must be checked as soon
as possible after fitting the spare wheel-an
incorrectly inflated tyre can increase the risk
of accident. You can find the tyre pressures
here ¢ page 233, Fig. 220.
- Do not drive faster than 80 km/h when the
compact temporary spare wheel is fitted -
higher speeds can cause an accident.
- Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking and
fast cornering when the compact temporary
spare wheel is fitted -risk of accident!
- Never use two or more compact spare tyres
at the same time -risk of accident!
- No other type of tyre (normal summer or
winter tyres) may be fitted on the compact
temporary spare wheel.
]ump-starting Before starting the engine
If necessary, the engine can be started by con­
necting it to the battery of another vehicle.
If the engine fails to start because of a dis­
charged battery, the battery can be connected to
the battery of another vehicle to start the engine.
Suitable jump Leads are required.
Both batteries must be rated at 12 Volts. The ca­
pacity (Ah) of the booster battery should not be
significantly lower than that of the discharged
battery.
Jump Leads
The jump Leads must be heavy enough to carry
the starter current. Refer to the details given by
the manufacturer.
248 Only
use jump leads with insulated battery
clamps.
Positive cable -usually red.
Negative cable -usually black.
A WARNING
- When it is discharged the battery can freeze
at temperatures around 0°
(. A frozen bat­
tery must first be thawed out before con­
necting the jump leads, as it could other­
wise explode.
- Note the safety warnings referring to work­
ing in the engine compartment ¢ page 220.
(© Note
- There must be no contact between the two
vehicles as otherwise current could flow as
soon as the positive terminals are connec­
ted and the boosting battery could be dis­
charged.
- The disch arged battery must be properly
connected to the vehicle's electrical system.
- Switch off the car telephone if necessary.
Details will be given in the manufacturer's
instructions for the car telephone.

replacement parts and
repairs
It is best to consult an authorised Audi dealer
before purchasing accessories and replacement
parts or having any repairs carried out.
Your car is designed to offer a high standard of
active and passive safety. For this reason, we rec­
om mend that you ask your Audi dealer for advice
before fitting accessories or replacement parts.
This is also very important if body repairs are re­
quired. Audi dealers have full information on the
manufacturer-approved repair methods and can
recommend suitable accessories and spare parts.
They can also give advice regarding official re­
quirements for the vehicle.
We recommend you to use only Audi accessories
and Audi Genuine Parts. Audi has tested these
products for suitability, reliability and safety.
Audi dealers have the necessary experience and
facilities to ensure that the parts are installed
properly.
Although the market is constantly scrutinised,
Audi cannot judge or assume responsibility for
the reliability, safety and suitability of non-genu­
ine products -even though in some instances,
these parts may have been approved by an offi­
cially recognised technical testing authority or
accompanied by an official approval certificate.
Any retro-fitted equipment which has a direct ef­
fect on the vehicle and/or the way it is driven
(e.g. cruise control system or electronically-con­
trolled suspension) must be approved for use in
your vehicle and bear thee mark (the European
Union's approval symbol).
If any additional electrical components are fit­
ted which do not serve to control the vehicle it­
self (for instance a refrigerator box, laptop or
ventilator fan, etc.), these must bear the CE mark
(manufacturer conformity declaration in the Eu­
ropean Union).
260 A
WARNING
Never attach accessories (such as cup holders
or telephone brackets) to the surfaces cover­
ing the airbag units or the areas around the
airbags: this could cause injury if the airbag is
triggered.
({D Note
- Since the Audi TT has an aluminium body,
all ser vicing, repairs or other work on the
car body must be carried out by an Audi
workshop or a qualified workshop working
to the specifications of the Audi factory.
This ensures that the necessary repairs or
servicing are performed properly and that
only Audi Genuine Parts are installed on
your vehicle. Use of non-genuine replace­
ment parts, equipment or accessories on
your Audi TI, or repair of the vehicle by un­
qualified persons, may result in serious
damage to your car (possibly including cor­
rosion).
- The manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage which occurs as a result of failure
to comply with these stipulations, and such
damage is not covered under warranty.
Modifi cations
Modifications must always be carried out accord­
ing to our specifications.
Unauthorised modifications to the electronic
components or software in the vehicle may cause
malfunctioning. Due to the way the electronic
components are linked together in networks, oth­
er systems may be affected by the faults. This can
seriously impair safety, lead to excessive wear of
components, and also invalidate the type appro­
val for your vehicle.
You will appreciate that your Audi dealer cannot
be held liable for any damage caused by modifi­
cations and/or work performed incorrectly.
We recommend that all work should be per­
formed by an Audi workshop using Audi Genuine
