driver . The driver is sti ll respons ible for
manually switch ing the wipers on according
to the visibility cond it io ns.
- The windsh ield may not be t reated w ith wa­
ter-repelling w indshield coating agents . Un­
favorable condit ions, such as wet ness, dark­
ness o r low sun, can result in inc reased
g la re, which increases the risk of an acci­
dent. Wipe r blade chatter is also possible .
- Properly func tioning windshield wipe r
b lades are requi red for a clea r view and safe
dr iving

(D Note
-If there is frost, make sure the wi ndshield
w iper blades are not froze n to the wi nd­
shield. Swi tching on the w indshie ld w ipers
when the b la d es are frozen to the win d­
shield can damage the w iper blades .
- P rior to using a c ar wash, the w indshield
w iper system mus t be sw itched off (lever i n
position 0). This prevents unintentiona l
switching on and damage to the windsh ield
w iper system .

Braking
What affects braking efficiency?
New brake pads
During the first 250 miles (400 km), new brake
pads do not possess the ir full braking effect, they
have to be "broken in" first¢.&. . You can com­
pensate for this slightly reduced braking power
by push ing harder on the brake pedal. Avoid
h eavy braking loads during the break-in period .
Operating conditions and driving habits
The brakes on today's automobiles are still sub­
ject to wear , depend ing largely on operating con­
d itions and dr iving habits ¢.&. . On veh icles that
are e ither dr iven most ly in stop-and-go city traf­
fic or are driven hard, the brake pads should be
checked by your authorized Audi deale r more of­
ten than specified in the
Warranty & Mainte­
nance booklet.
F ailure to have your brake pads inspected can result
in reduced brake perform­
ance.
On steep slopes, you should use the braking ef­
fect of the engine. This way, you prevent un nec­
essa ry wea r on the brake system. If you must use
you r brakes, do not hold the brakes down contin­
u ous ly. Pump the brakes at intervals.
Operating noise
Noises may occur when braking depending on the
speed, bra king fo rce and outside conditions such
as temperature and humidity.
Effect of water and road salt
In certain situations, for example after driving
through water, in heavy rain, after overn ight con­
densation or afte r wash ing your car, the brak ing
effect can be reduced by moisture or ic e on the
brake rotors and brake pads. The brakes must be
dried f irst with a few careful brake applications .
At h igher speeds and w ith the windshield wipers
turned on, the brake pads press against the brak e
rotors for a short amount of time. This occurs at
regular intervals without the driver noticing and
provides for better brake response t ime under
wet conditions.
T he effectiveness of the brakes can be reduced
when the vehicle is driven on a sa lt-covered road
and the brakes are not used . Likewise, yo u clean
off accum ulated salt coating from brake discs
and pads with a few cautious applications of the
brake¢ .&..
Corrosion
There may be a tendency fo r dirt to build up on
the brake pads and corrosion to form on the discs .,..
