Checking brake fluid level
Fig . 133 Engine compa rtment: cove r on the brake fluid
reservo ir
Before you check anything in the engine com­
partment,
a lw ays read and h eed all WA RN­
ING S ¢&. in Working in the engine compart ­
ment on page 164.
,.. Read the brake fluid level from the brake
fluid reservoir¢
page 166, fig . 128. T he
brake flu id leve l must be between the "MIN"
and "MAX" markings.
The brake flu id rese rvo ir is located behind the
rear part ition of the eng ine compartment o n
the left side ¢
page 166.
The fluid level may drop slightly after some
time due to the automatic adjustment of the b rake pads . This is not cause for alarm.
If the brake fluid level falls
considerably be­
low the "MIN" mark, the brake warning/indi­
cator light (U.S. models: . , Canadian mod­
e ls: . ) w ill come on
¢page 14. Do not con­
tinue to operate the vehicle. The comp lete
brake system shou ld be thoroughly checked
by an authorized A udi dealer or other quali­
fied facility and the cause corrected.
If the
brake fluid level is too low, the brake warn ing/
indicator light w ill illuminate. Contact an au­
thor ized Audi dealer
imm ediatel y.
Changing brake fluid
Have the brake fluid changed by an experi­
enced technician .
Brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air. If
the water content in the brake fluid is too high, corrosion in the brake system may result
after a period of time . The boiling point of the
brake flu id will also decrease conside rably and
decrease braking pe rformance.
Therefore, the brake fluid must be changed
eve ry two y ears. Always use new brake flu id
which conforms to Federal Motor Veh icle
Standard "F MVSS 116 DOT 4".
The brake fluid reservoir can be diff icult to
reach, therefore, we recommend that you
have the brake fluid changed by your author­
ized
Audi dealer . Your dealer has the correct
tools, the right brake fl uid and the know -how
to do this for you.
A WARNING
- Brake fluid is poisonous . It must be stor­
ed only in the closed original container
out of the reach of children!
- Brake failure can resu lt from o ld or inap­
propriate brake flu id. Observe these pre­
cautions:
- Use only brake f luid that meets SA E
specifica tion
J 1 7 03 and conforms to
Federa l Moto r Ve hicl e Standard 1 16.
Always check with yo ur authorized Aud i
dealer to make sure yo u are using the
correct brake fluid. The correct type of brake f lu id is also ind icated on the
brake flu id reservoir.
- The brake fluid must be new. Heavy use
of the brakes can cause a vapor lock if
the brake fluid is left in the system too
l ong. This can seriously affect the effi­
c iency of the brakes as well as your
safety. This cou ld resu lt in an accident.
(D Note
Brake fluid will damage the paint of your
vehicle .

@ For the sake of the environment
Because of the problem of proper disposa l
of brake flu id as we ll as the special tools
requ ired and the necessary expert ise, we
recommend that you have the brake fluid
changed by your author ized Audi dealer .
Battery
General information
Your vehicle is equipped with a special bat­
tery, an
ACM battery. This battery is located
in the luggage compartment and must be re­
p laced w ith an original equipment battery .
Under normal operati ng conditions, the bat­
tery is
maint enan ce -fre e.
Have the battery checked when you take your
ve hicle in for service. You are well adv ised to
replace a battery that is older than
5 years.
Di sconn ect ing the battery terminal s
Some vehicle functions (power window regu­
lators, for example) are lost if the battery ter­
minals are d isconnected. These functions have
to be re learned after the battery terminals are
connected again . To prevent this, the battery
should only be d isconnected from the vehicle
e lectr ica l system when absolutely necessary
for repairs .
Vehicles not driven for l ong period s
If you do not drive your vehicle over a period
of several days or weeks, electrical compo ­
nents are gradually cut back o r switched off .
This reduces energy consumption and main­
tains sta rting capab ility over a longer per iod
c::> page 146. Some of the convenience func­
tions may not operate, s uch as the interior
lights or power seat adjustment. The conven ­
ience functions will be avai lab le again when
you switch on the ignition and start the en­ g ine.
Winter operation
D uring the winter months, ba tte ry capaci ty
tends to decrease as temperatures d rop. This
is because more powe r is also consumed while
Checkin g and fillin g 175
starting, and the headlights, rear window de ­
fogger, etc ., are used more often .
Avoid unnecess ary powe r consumpt io n, p ar­
t icu lar ly in city traffic o r when traveling only
sho rt distances. Let your authorized A udi
dealer check the capacity of the vehicle bat­
tery before winter sets in
c::> page 178. A well
charged battery will not on ly prevent starting
problems when the weather is cold, but will
also last longer .
Replacing battery
The new battery must ha ve the same capaci ­
ty, voltage (12 volts), amperage, construction
and plug sea ling, as the original battery. Spec­
ifications are listed o n the battery housing.
Batter ies spec ia lly developed by Audi fulfill
the maintenance, outp ut, and safety require­
ments.
When installing the battery, make sure the ig­ nition and a ll electrical consumers are switch ­
ed off
c::> (D .
We recommend that you use maintenance­
free or
cycle -res istant /leak-proof batter ies
accord ing to the standards TL 825 06 (from
Apr il 2008) and VW 7 50 73 (from Ap ril
2010).
Rep lacing the battery should be carried by a
qualified workshop. Please fo llow the instruc ­
tions on the battery cover.
([) Note
-All work on the battery requ ires techn i­
cal know ledge. P lease contact an Audi
deale rship o r anot her au tho rized fac ility
for questions abo ut the batte ry -dang er
of a cid b urns and exp losion ha zard!
- T he battery must not be opened! Do not
try to cha nge the battery 's liquid level,
ot herwise de tona ting gas will esc ape
from the ba ttery -explosion ha zard!
- T he AGM battery in the l uggage com­
p artment cannot leak, because the elec­
tro lyte for this battery is abso rbed into a
special glass mat. This lea k-p roof battery

@ Tips
The discharged battery must be properly connected to the vehicle's electrical sys­
tem.
Use of jumper cables
Make sure to connect the jumper coble
clomps in exactly the order described below!
Fig. 163 Eng ine compartme nt: Co nnecto rs for jumper
cables and charger
F ig . 164 Jump start ing with the battery of another ve­
h icle: @discharged ve hicle batte ry, @ booste r battery
The procedure described below for connecting
jumper cables is intended to provide a jump
start for your veh icle.
Preparatory me asures
1. Do not jump start a frozen battery! Re­
place such a battery!
2 . Otherwise apply the hand brake and put
the selector leve r into P pos ition.
3. For both vehicles swi tch off all cons umers
and the ignit ion.
Conn ecting /disconnecting the jumper
cable .
4. Con nect one end of the red jumper cable
on the
jump st a rt bo lt @ ¢ fig. 164
Emergenc y situ ation s 21 7
(Bolts under red cover = "positive") o f the
vehicle to be started @.
5 . Connect the other end of the red jumper
cable to the positive terminal @ofthe
booster battery @.
6 . Connect one end of the black jumper ca­
ble to the negat ive terminal ® of the
booster battery @.
7. Co nnect the othe r end of the black jumper
c able to the negat ive termina l (bolt head)
@ in the external starting po int @ of
your vehicle.
8 . Route the jumper cables so that they can­
not catch in any rotat ing parts in the en ­
gine compartment.
Sta rting th e engine
9. Sta rt the eng ine of the vehicle providing
assistance and allow it to run at idle.
10. Now start the engine of the vehicle with
the discharged battery, wait for two to
three minutes until the engine "runs"
smooth ly.
11. If the eng ine does not start: Stop try ing
after 10 seconds and then try aga in after
about 30 seconds.
12 . In the vehicle that has received sta rt as­
s istance, tur n on the heate r blower and
the rear window hea ting to elim inate a ny
vo ltage peaks when disconnecting . Driv­
ing lights must be switched off!
13 . Disconnect the cable while the engine is
runn ing exactly in
reverse order to that
described in<=>
page 217, Connecting/dis­
connecting the jumper coble ..
When do­
ing so, make sure that the cable cannot
contact rotating eng ine parts.
14 . Close the cove r on the posit ive termina l.
T he battery is vented to the outside to p revent
gases from enter ing the veh icle inter ior. Make
s ur e that the jumper clamps a re well connec t­
ed with their
me tal parts in full contact with
the battery terminals.
