Never use a fast charger as a booster to start
the engine . This will serious ly damage sensi
tive electronic components, such as control units, relays, radio, etc., as well as the battery
charger.
Battery replacement
The new battery must have the same specifica
tions and dimensions as the original equipment
battery .
Intelligent energy management in your vehicle is
responsible for distributing the electrical energy
throughout your vehicle
¢ page 192 . The intelli
gent energy management system w ill keep the
engine battery charged better than vehicles with
out this system . To make sure the addit ional
e lectrica l energy is available once again after you
have changed the battery, we recommend that
you install batteries of the same type and manu
facture only (the same as those installed at the
time your veh icle was delivered). Specifications
are listed on the battery housing. Your author
ized dealer must code the battery in the energy
management system to enable you to use the en
ergy management functions correctly after re
p lacing the battery .
The new battery must have the same capacity,
voltage (12-volts), amperage, construction and
plug sealing .
When installing the battery, make sure the igni
tion and all electrical consumers are sw itched
off.
(D Note
Make sure the ventilation hose on the side of
the battery is connected, otherw ise fumes or
battery acid can leak out.
- Vehicles with the Start-Stop-System* are
equipped with a special cycle-proof AGM
battery . Install ing a different type of bat
tery can cause prob lems in the vehicle elec
trical system. When replacing the vehicle
battery, always install one with the same
specifications as the original battery.

Because of the problem of proper disposal of
a battery, we recommend your authorized
Audi dealer change the battery for you. Bat

always be disposed of properly in compliance
with all environmental regulations. Disposing
of veh icle batteries improperly is very danger
