2014 AUDI TT ROADSTER ECO mode

204 Tires and wheels
Handling characteristics change when
dr iving with low air pressure or with flat
tires even with special run-flat tires
A low pressure or flat front tire affects vehicle
handling characteristics by pulling the vehicle
slightly to the side where the tire is mounted
and reduces braking performance.
A low pressure or flat
rear tire also affects
driving characteristics by pul ling to the side
where the tire is mounted and also reduces
brak ing performance. The effect on vehicle
handling is most not iceable when driving
around curves.
& WARNING
Changed vehicle handling characteristics
when driving in the run -flat mode can
cause loss of vehicle contro l, a c rash and
serious personal in jury.
- Driving on special run-flat tires in the
run-flat mode will change vehicle han­
dling characteristics during braking,
when cornering and under heavy acceler­
ation .
- Never drive faster than the maximum
rated speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) when
dr iv ing in the run-flat mode .
- Always adjust vehicle speed to traffic,
road and weather cond itions and drive
slower than the max imum rated speed if
necessary weather and road conditions
are taken into account.
- Always obey speed limits and other traf­
fic laws.
(D Note
We a lways recommend driving w ith even
more care when using these specia l tires in
the run-flat mode. Always avo id sudden
maneuvers.
Replacing run-flat tires and rims
Applies to veh icles: w it h Run -flat tires
Your vehicle was especially designed to use
special run-flat tires .
You may use and combine only approved run­
flat tires and special matching rims that have
been designed for run -flat tires . Mounting
special run-flat tires on standard whee ls will
not work and will not provide the advantages
fo the run-falt feature. Never use special run­
flat tires on standa rd whee l rims.
After dr iving w ith a t ire in the run-flat mode,
always have the veh icle and affected tire(s)
and rim(s) inspected by an author ized Audi
dealer. Tires that have been dr iven in the run­
flat mode must be rep laced .
& WARNING
=
Use of damaged run-flat tires and rims can
cause vehicle damage that can lead to loss
of vehicle control, a crash and serious per­
sonal injury.
- Always have the vehicle and affected
tire(s) and r im(s) inspected by an author­
ized Audi dealer after driving a tire in the
run-flat mode.
- Tir es that have been dr iven in the run­
flat mode must be replaced.

Operating your vehicle
outside the U.S.A. or
Canada
Government regu lations in the United States
and Canada require that automobiles meet
specific emission regulations and safety
standards. Therefore, veh icles built for the
U.S.A . and Canada differ from vehicles sold in
other countries .
If you p lan to take your vehicle outside the
continental limits of the United States or Can­
ada, there is the possibility that:
- unleaded fuels for vehicles with cata lytic
converter may not be available;
- fuel may have a considerably lowe r octane
rating. Improper fuel may cause engine
damage ;
- service may be inadequate due to lack of
proper service facilities, tools or testing
equipment ;
- replacement pa rts may not be readily availa­
ble.
- Navigation systems for vehicles built for the
U.S.A. and Canada will not necessar ily work
in Europe, and may not work in other coun­
tries outside of North America.
(D Note
Audi cannot be responsible for mechanical
damage that could result from inadequate
fuel, service or parts availability.

Maintenance
General
Your vehicle has been designed to help keep
maintenance requirements to a minimum.
However, a certain amount of regular mainte­
nance is still necessary to assure your vehicle's
s afety, economy and rel iability. For detailed
vehicle maintenance consult your Warranty &
Maintenance booklet.
Under difficult operating conditions, for ex­
ample at extremely low outside temperatures,
i n very dusty regions , etc., some service work
should be performed between the intervals
specified. This applies particularly to:
- oil changes, and
- cleaning or replacing the air filter.
@ For the sake of the environment
By regu larly maintaining your vehicle, you
help make sure that emission standards
are maintained, thus minimizing adverse
effects on the environment .
' Important considerations for you and
your vehicle

ed fuel injection and emission control sys­
tems, and the generally increasing technica l
complexity of today's automobiles, have
