Roof carrier
The roof carrier must be attached only in the
area of the Locating pins.
Fig. 63 Attachment points for carrier units
Note the following points if you intend to carry
loads on the roof:
- The rain channels are moulded into the roof as
part of the aerodynamic roof design. It is there­
fore not possible to mount conventional roof
luggage racks. We recommend using the carrier
units from the range of Audi Genuine accesso­
ries.
- These carrier units form the basic elements of a
complete roof carrier system. Special fixtures
must then be added in order to safely transport
luggage, bicycles, skis, surf boards or boats on
the roof. All the elements of this system are
available from Audi dealers.
- The maximum permissible roof load for your
vehicle is 75 kg. The load limit applies to the
combined weight of the carrier system and the
load itself.
- It will not be possible to carry the full maxi­
mum load if the roof carrier you are using is rat­
ed for a load which is less than this figure. Do
not exceed the maximum weight limit for the
roof carrier, which is listed in the fitting instruc­
tions.
Mounting
The feet of the carrier units must be fitted exact­
ly in the area of the locating pins between the
side frame and the roof frame trim qfig. 63. The
locating pins come into view when you push the
sealing lip back off the roof frame trim using the
tool provided for this purpose.

WARNING
- To prevent accidents, loads carried on the
roof must be securely attached.
- Do not exceed the maximum roof load for
the vehicle, the maximum axle loads or the
maximum gross vehicle weight, as this
could cause an accident.
- When transporting heavy or bulky loads on
the roof, bear in mind that the car's han­
dling is affected by the extra weight on the
roof and a possible susceptibility to cross
winds. Adjust your speed and driving style
accordingly to avoid accidents.
Any damage to the vehicle caused by the use
of other types of roof rack or incorrect instal­
lation will not be covered by the factory war­
ranty. The roof carrier system must therefore
be installed exactly according to the instruc­
tions provided.
it!) For the sake of the environment
Roof carriers are often left attached for con­
venience, even when they are not being used.
However, the increased air resistance means
that the vehicle uses more fuel. For this rea­
son you should always take off the roof carrier
when it is not in use.

Fuel Petrol grade
Applies to vehicles: with petrol engine
The correct grade of petrol is listed inside the
fuel tank flap.
The vehicle is equipped with a catalytic converter
and must only be run on unleaded petrol. The
petrol must comply with the EN 228 or DIN
51626-1 standard and must be sulphur-free. You
can fuel your vehicle with fuels containing a max­
imum of 10% ethanol (ElO). The petrol grades
have different octane ratings (RON).
The following headings relate to the sticker on
the inside of your vehicle's tank flap:
Unleaded fuel only RON/ROZ 95 Super,
Premium or min. RON/ROZ 91 Normal
The use of premium petrol (95 RON) is recom­
mended. If that type of fuel is not available, reg­
ular petrol (RON 91) can be used with a slight
loss of power.
Unleaded fuel only, min. RON/ROZ 95 Super,
Premium
Premium petrol (at least 95 RON) must be used.
If premium petrol is not available, the engine can
be run on regular petrol with 91 RON as an emer­
gency measure. In this case only use moderate
engine speeds and a light throttle. Fill up with
premium or Super Plus petrol as soon as possi­
ble.
Unleaded fuel only RON/ROZ 98 Super Plus
or min. RON/ROZ 95 Super, Premium
The use of Super Plus petrol (98 RON) is recom­
mended. If that type of fuel is not available, pre­
mium petrol (RON 95) can be used with a slight
loss of power.
If premium petrol is not available, the engine can

CD CAUTION
- Do NOT fuel your vehicle with high-ethanol
fuel blends (e.g. ESQ or E85). This will dam­
age the fuel system.
- Just one tank of leaded fuel or fuel with
metallic additives will permanently impair
the efficiency of the catalytic converter.
- You should use only petrol additives which
have been approved by Audi. Additives with
so-called octane boosters or antiknock addi­
tives can contain metallic additives that
cause significant damage to the engine and
the catalytic converter. Do not use such ad­
ditives.
- Metal-based fuels, which can be identified
from the marking on the fuel dispenser,
must not be used. LRP fuel (lead replace­
ment petrol) also contains high concentra­
tions of metallic additive. Risk of engine
damage!
- High engine speed and full throttle can
damage the engine when using petrol with
an octane rating lower than the correct
grade for the engine.
«'.D Note
- You can use higher octane fuel than your en­
gine requires.
- In countries where sulphur-free fuel is not
available, you may use low-sulphur fuel in­
stead.
Diesel fuel
Applies to vehicles: with diesel engine
Please note the information on the inside of the
fuel tank flap.
The use of sulphur-free diesel to EN 590 is rec­
ommended. If that type of fuel is unavailable,
diesel to EN 590 can be used. It must have ace­
tane number (CN) of at least 51. The cetane
number indicates the ignition quality of the die-
sel fuel.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Checking
and topping up fluids
Diesel can thicken at very low temperatures,
which can result in problems starting the engine
or prevent the engine from running smoothly. For
this reason, filling stations in some countries of­
fer winter-grade diesel fuel during the cold
months so that you can continue to operate your
vehicle reliably. Ask at your filling station wheth­
er the diesel fuel available there is suitable for
the current conditions and for the temperatures
which could potentially occur.
CD CAUTION
- Never use FAME fuels (biodiesel), petrol,
heating oil, thinners or any other fuels or
additives, as these could cause serious dam­
age to the fuel system and the engine.
- Never start the engine if you fill up with the
wrong type of fuel, as this could damage
the fuel system and the engine. Obtain pro­
fessional assistance.

Press the tank flap -arrow- ¢ Fig. 204 to open
it. Your vehicle has a new self-sealing fuel tank
without a tank cap.
� Insert the filler nozzle into the fuel filler neck
as far as the stop ¢ Fig. 205 and ensure it is
properly engaged.
� Start refuelling. When the automatic filler noz­
zle is operated correctly it will switch itself off
as soon as the tank is "full". Do not try to put in
more fuel after the nozzle cuts out, as this will
fill the expansion chamber in the fuel tank.
� When the fuel filler pump switches itself off,
wait for 5 seconds before pulling out the filler
nozzle so that any remaining fuel can flow into
the tank opening.
� Close the tank flap. Make sure you hear it click
into place.
The correct fuel grade for your vehicle is given on
a sticker on the inside of the tank flap. Further
notes on fuel ¢page 217.
The tank capacity of your vehicle is given in the
Technical data section ¢ page 258.
& WARNING
Fuel is highly inflammable and can cause seri­
ous burns and other injuries.
- For safety reasons we do not recommend
carrying a spare fuel canister in the vehicle.
The canister could become damaged in an
accident and leak.
- Observe all relevant statutory regulations
on using, storing and transporting spare
fuel canisters.
- When filling your tank or a spare fuel canis­
ter with fuel, do not smoke and keep away
from naked flames -risk of explosion!
- If,
in exceptional circumstances, you have to
carry a spare fuel canister, please observe
the following warnings:
- Never fill fuel into the spare fuel canister
with the canister placed in or on top of the
vehicle. An electrostatic charge could
build up during filling, causing the fuel va­
pour to ignite -risk of explosion! Always
place the canister on the ground to fill it.
- Insert the filler nozzle as far as possible
into the spare fuel canister.

.... -
If the spare fuel canister is made of metal,
the filler nozzle must be in contact with
the canister during filling. This helps pre­
vent an electrostatic charge building up.
- Make sure you never spill fuel in the vehi­
cle or in the Luggage compartment. Fuel
vapour is explosive -danger to Life!
CD CAUTION
- Remove any fuel spills from the paintwork
immediately.
- Never run the tank completely dry. If there
is an irregular fuel supply, misfiring can oc­
cur. As a result unburnt fuel can enter the
exhaust system and cause damage to the
cata Lytic converter(s).
- When filling the fuel tank after having run it
completely dry on a vehicle with a diesel en­
gine the ignition must be switched on for at
Least 30 seconds without starting the en­
gine. When you then start the engine it may
take Longer than normal (up to one minute)
for the engine to start firing. This is because
air needs to be bled from the fuel system
while starting.
(® For the sake of the environment
Do not overfill the fuel tank -this may cause
the fuel to overflow if it becomes warm.
(1j) Note
Should the fuel tank flap become frozen stuck
during inclement weather, press the middle
of the flap with the palm of the hand and try
again.
@ Note
To prevent the tank from being filled with the
incorrect type of fuel (petrol or diesel), only
suitable filler nozzles can be inserted in the
fuel filler on your vehicle.
- If the filler nozzle is old, damaged or too
small, it may not be able to open the pro­
tection mechanism on the fuel tank. In this
case, try turning the filler nozzle before in­
serting it in the fuel filler neck, use a differ- Checking

and tyres
Wheels General notes
... Inspect the tyres regularly for damage (cuts,
cracks or blisters, etc.). Remove any foreign
bodies embedded in the treads.
... If you have to drive over a kerb or similar obsta­
cle, drive very slowly and as near as possible at
a right angle to the kerb.
... Damaged rims or tyres must be replaced imme­
diately.
... Keep grease, oil and fuel off the tyres.
... Mark
the wheels before taking them off so that
they rotate in the same direction when refitted.
... When removed, the wheels should be stored
flat in a cool, dry and preferably dark place.
CD CAUTION
- Please note that summer and winter tyres
are optimised for the prevailing road condi­
tions at different times of year. We recom­
mend that you use winter tyres during the
winter months. At low temperatures, sum­
mer tyres lose their elasticity and grip, and
braking performance also suffers as a re­
sult. Cracks can form in the tread block on
summer tyres if they are used at very cold
temperatures, and this can cause perma­
nent damage to the tyres. An increase in
rolling noise and tyre imbalance may result
from this damage.
- Machined, polished or chrome-plated rims
must not be used in winter conditions. The
process used to manufacture these types of
wheel rim does not provide adequate sur­
face protection against corrosion, and the
rims can be permanently damaged by road
salt or similar.
New wheels or tyres
It is best to have all servicing of wheels and tyres
performed by a qualified workshop, since they
have the necessary special tools and replacement
parts and trained personnel. Wheels
and tyres
... New tyres do not yet give maximum grip. When
driving with new tyres, drive at moderate
speeds and be especially careful during the first
500 km.
... All four wheels must be fitted with tyres of the
same type, size (rolling circumference) and
preferably the same tread pattern.
... Tyres should be replaced in pairs and not indi­
vidually (i.e. both front tyres or both rear tyres
together).
... We recommend the use of Audi Genuine Tyres.
If you wish to use other tyres, please note that
the actual size can differ from the nominal size
marked on the tyre ¢.&_
.
... If you wish to purchase a different combination
of rims and tyres than the ones fitted on the ve­
hicle during production, it is advisable to con­
sult a qualified workshop beforehand ¢.&_
.
On vehicles with four-wheel drive, all four wheels
must always be fitted with tyres of the same
type, make and tread pattern, as otherwise the
driveline can be damaged by variations in the
wheel speeds. For the same reason, only use a
spare wheel* which has the same rolling circum­
ference as the normal road wheels.
If the spare wheel* is not the same type as the
tyres fitted on the car (for example if the car has
winter tyres or wide-section tyres) you should on­
ly use the spare wheel* if a puncture occurs, and
then only for a short period of time. In this case,
please drive with extra care. Refit a normal road
wheel as soon as possible.
Manufacturing date
The manufacturing date is indicated on the tyre
sidewall (possibly only on the inner side of the
wheel):

means, for example, that the tyre was produced
in the 22nd week of 2014.
Audi Genuine Tyres
Audi Genuine Tyres with the marking "AO" or
"RO" are specially matched to your Audi. When
used properly, these tyres meet the highest
standards in safety and handling. Your specialist

WARNING
Insufficient tread depth or different tread
depths on different wheels reduce safety. This
is particularly evident in vehicle handling,
when there is a risk of aquaplaning in deep
puddles of water and when driving through
corners. Braking is also adversely affected -
risk of accident!

¢.&,.
.
Checking / adjusting the tyre pressures
.. Check
the tyre pressures at least once a month
and, in addition, before starting a long journey. Wheels
and tyres
.. The tyre pressures should only be checked when
the tyres are cold. The slightly raised pressures
of warm tyres must not be reduced.
.. Refer to the sticker ¢ Fig. 220 for the correct
tyre pressures according to the load the vehicle
is carrying.
.. If necessary , adjust the tyre pressure.
.. Vehicles with tyre pressure loss indicator*:
Store the new tyre pressures on the infotain­
ment system ¢ page 235 .
.. Check the pressure of the spare wheel* /com­
pact temporary spare wheel*. Keep the spare
tyre inflated to the highest pressure approved
for the tyre.
A WARNING
Always adjust the tyre pressures to match
your driving style and the load the vehicle is
carrying.
- Excessive loads can cause you to lose control
of the vehicle -risk of accident!
- Under-inflated tyres flex more and can over­
heat at high speeds or when the vehicle is
carrying a heavy load. This could cause a
tyre blow-out and you could lose control of
the vehicle -risk of accident!
- Incorrect tyre pressures increase tyre wear
and adversely affect vehicle braking and
handling -risk of accident!
CD CAUTION
Replace any lost valve caps to prevent dam­
age to the tyre valves.
@ For the sake of the environment
Under-inflated tyres will increase the fuel con­
sumption.
@ Note
We recommend using the tyre pressure set­
ting (Dor@ for partial loads.
Winter tyres
In winter road conditions winter tyres will consid­
erably improve the car's handling. Due to their
type of construction (width, rubber compound,

tread pattern), summer tyres give less grip on ice
and snow.
... Winter tyres must be fitted on all four wheels.
... Only use winter tyres of the correct type ap-
proved for your vehicle.
... Please
note that the maximum permissible
speed for winter tyres may be lower than for
summer tyres¢.&_ . Your specialist retailer can
advise you of the maximum speed for your
tyres.
... After fitting the wheels you must always check
the tyre pressures ¢page 233.
Winter tyres lose their effectiveness when the
tread is worn down to a depth of 4 mm. The per­
formance of winter tyres is also severely impaired
by ageing, even if the tread is still much deeper
than 4 mm.
.&_ WARNING
- Never exceed the maximum approved speed
for your tyres. This causes the tyres to over­
heat and can even result in a blow-out -risk
of accident!
- Always adapt your driving style to the pre­
vailing road and traffic conditions. Drive
carefully and reduce your speed on icy or
slippery roads. Even winter tyres lose their
grip on black ice.
@) For the sake of the environment
Summer tyres should be fitted again as soon
as possible; they give better handling on
roads which are free of snow and ice. They are
quieter, do not wear so quickly and reduce
fuel consumption.
(Qj) Note
All-weather tyres can also be used instead of
winter tyres. Please note that winter tyres
with the & symbol are required by law during
the winter season in some countries.
Snow chains
Snow chains will improve braking ability as well
as traction in winter conditions.
234 ...
Snow chains can be used on the front wheels
only. This also applies to vehicles with four­
wheel drive* .
... Check that the snow chains are correctly seated
after driving for a few yards; follow the instruc­
tions given by the manufacturer .
... Keep your speed below 50 km/h. Please ob-
serve the applicable local regulations.
For technical reasons snow chains may only be
used on tyres with certain wheel rim/tyre combi­
nations.
Rim size

size
7Jx17 47mm 225/50
Only use snow chains with fine-pitch links. The
links must not protrude more than 13.5 mm
from the tyres (including tensioner).
You must remove the snow chains on roads which
are free of snow; otherwise the vehicle handling
may be impaired and the tyres may be damaged.
.&_ WARNING
Unsuitable or incorrectly mounted snow
chains can cause you to lose control of the ve­
hicle -risk of accident!
CD CAUTION
Snow chains can damage the rim/hubcap* if
they make direct contact with it. Remove the
hubcaps* beforehand. Use snow chains which
have a protective coating.

The tyre pressure Loss indicator in the instrument
cluster informs the driver if the tyre pressure is
too low or a system malfunction has occurred.
The tyre pressure loss indicator makes use of the
ABS sensors to compare the rolling circumfer­
