[I] appear together, immed iate ly
contact your authori zed Audi dealer or qualified
workshop to have all brake pads inspected
,:::;, page 16.
When the light comes on, an audib le wa rning sig­
na l is also given.
A WARNING
- Always observe the warnings in
,:::;, page 177, before opening the hood and
check ing the b rake fl uid .
- Driving with low brake fl uid is a sa fety haz­
ar d. Stop the car and get professional ass is­
tance.
- If the 1111 (USA models) ;III (Canada mod­
els) brake system i ndicator lig ht t urns on to­

l igh ts, the ABS/ ESC regulating functi on may
have failed. Func tions tha t st abilize the ve­
hicle are no longe r available. This cou ld
ca use the vehicle to swerve and increase the
risk of sliding . Stop the car and get profes­
sional assistance .
- If the bra ke warn ing/indicator light does
not go o ut after a few seconds and the park­
ing brake is released, or lights up while you
are driving, t he flu id leve l in the brake fluid
rese rvoir is too low. If you believe that it is
safe to do so, proceed immediately a t low
speed to the nearest au thori zed Audi dealer

sys tem inspe cte d.
- Always keep in min d that afte r sev era l brake
applica tions, you w ill need greate r pressure
on the brake pedal to stop yo ur vehicle. Do
not rely on straine d brakes to respond w ith
ma ximum stopping power in critical situa ­
t ions . You must allow for increased braking
distances. The extra distance used up by
fading b rakes could lead to an acc ident.

Driving
When start ing from a stop
- T he in tegr al hi ll sta rt as sis t helps y ou when
driving by automatically releasing the park ing
brake¢
page 72, Starting from a stop.
- When starting on incl ines, the hill start assist
prevents the vehicle from unintentionally roll ­
ing back . The braking force
of the parking brake
is only released if sufficient drive power has
been built up at the wheels.
Em erg enc y bra ke f unction
An emergency braking functions ens ures that the
vehicle can be s lowed down even if the
normal
brakes fail¢ page 73, Emergency braking

- Do not press the accelerator pedal inadver­
tently when the veh icle is stationary and the
engine is running and a gear is selected.
Otherwise t he vehicle w ill start to move im­
med iate ly and could result in a c rash.
- If the power supply fa ils, the released park­
ing bra ke can no longe r engage. In th is
case, pa rk the veh icle on leve l ground and
sec ure it by placing the selector lever in the
P position. See an author ized Audi dealer or
authorized Aud i Service Faci lity for assis ­
tance .
(D Tips
-If the parking b rake is set while the ignition
i s sw itched off, the. indicator light in the
b utton and -(USA models) /. (Cana­
da models) will turn off after a certain
amount of time.
- Occasiona l noises when the parking brake is

cause for concern.
- When the vehicle is parked, the parking
brake goes thro ugh a self-test cycle at reg u­
l ar intervals. Any no ises assoc iated with this
are normal.
- If there is a power fa ilure, the parking brake
will not set if it is re leased, and it will not
release if it is set¢,&. See an authorized

Parking
.. Press the brake pedal to stop the veh icle.
.. To set the park ing brake, pull on the© switch.
.. Select the P position .
.. Turn the engine off¢,& .
.. Turn the steering wheel when par king on in­
cl ines so that the wheels w ill roll into the cu rb
if the vehicle starts moving.
,&. WARNING
- Always take the veh icle key with yo u when
leaving the vehicle, even for a short period
of time. This applies part icularly when chil­
dren remain in the vehicle. Otherwise chil­
dren could start the engine, release the
parking brake or operate electrical equip­
ment such as power w indows, which in­
creases the risk of an accident.
-
- No one should remain in the veh icle w hen it
is locked, especially ch ild ren. Locked doors
make it more difficult for emergency work­
ers to get into the veh icle, wh ich puts lives
at risk.

.. When you press the acce lerator pedal, the
parking brake is automat ica lly re leased and
your vehicle beg ins to move .
When stopping at a traffic signa l or stopping in
c ity traff ic, the parking brake can be applied . The
vehicle does not have to be held with the brake pedal. The park ing brake elim inates the tendency
to c reep when a se lector lever position is engag-
ed. As soon as yo u press t he accelerator pedal,

the parking brake releases automatically and the
vehicle starts to move.
Starting on hills
When start ing on inclines, the hill start ass ist
prevents the vehicle from unintentionally roll ing
back. The braking force of the parking brake is
only released if sufficient drive power has been
bui lt up at the whee ls.
(D Tips
For safety reasons, the parking brake is re­
leased automatically only when the driver's
safety belt is fastened and the driver's door is
locked.
Starting to drive with a trailer
To prevent rolling back unintentionally on an in­
cline, do the following:
.. Keep pulling the<®> switch and press the acce l­
erator pedal. The parking brake stays applied
and prevents the vehicle from ro lling backward.
.. You can re lease the<®> switch once you are sure
that you are transferring enough dr iving force
to the whee ls by pressing the accelerator pedal.
Depending on the weight of the rig (vehicle and
trailer) and the severity of the incline, you may
roll backwards as you start.
Hill hold
A ppl ies to vehicles: with H ill Hol d
Hill hold makes it easier to start on hills .
Requirement: The driver's door must be closed,
the seat belt must be buckled and the engine
must be running.
The system is activated when the brake pedal is
p ressed
for a few seconds.
To prevent the vehicle from roll ing back when
starting, the brake power is held for a brief mo­
ment after releasing the brake pedal. During this
~ time, you can easi ly begin to move you r vehicle .
ci ::, co ,...., N Driving
A WARNING
- The intelligent technology of Hill Hold can­
not overcome the limitat ions imposed by
natural physical laws. The increased comfort
offered by Hill Hold should not cause you to
take safety risks.
- Hill Hold cannot hold the vehicle in all hill
start situations (for example, if the g round
is slippery or icy).
- If you do not beg in moving immediately af­
ter releasing the brake peda l, the vehicle
could begin to roll backward under certain
circumstances . Press the brake pedal or set
the parking brake immediately.
-If the engine "stalls", press the brake pedal
or set the parking bra ke immediate ly.
- To prevent the vehicle from roll ing back un­
intentionally when starting in s top-and-go
traffic, keep the brake pedal pressed for a
few seconds before driving off .

Introduction
The automat ic transmission is controlled e lec­
tron ically . The transmission upshifts or down­
shifts automatically depending on wh ich dr ive
p rogram is selected.
When a
m oderate dri ving style is used, the
transmission se lects the most e conomical d riving
mode. The t ransm iss ion upshifts a t a lower RPM
and downshifts at a higher RPM to imp rove fuel
efficiency.
The transm ission switches to a spo rty mode afte r
a kick-down or when the drive r uses a
sport y
d riving sty le
charac ter ized by quick accelerator
pedal movements, heavy acce leration, frequent
changes in speed and traveling at the maximum
speed.
If desired, the dr iver can a lso select the gears
manually (tiptronic mod e) ¢ page 85.
In the tiptronic t ransmiss ion, power is trans fer­
red by a torque converte r.

A WARNING
- The vehicle can also ro ll when the eng ine is
stopped.
- Unintended vehicle movement can cause se­
rious injury.
- Never leave your veh icle with the engine
running while in gear. If you must leave
your veh icle w hen the engine is r unning, ac­
tivate t he pa rking brake a nd move the selec­
tor lever to P .
- Power is still transmitted to the wheels
when the engine is running at idle . To p re­
vent the vehicle from "creeping", yo u m ust
keep your foo t on t he b rake when the en­
g in e is ru nning and the selector lever is in D/
Sor R or "tiptronic" mode is se lected .
- Do not press the a cce le ra to r peda l when
changing the se lec to r l ever posi tion while
the vehicle is s ta tionary and the engine is
r u nning .
- Never sh ift into R or P whi le driving.
- Before d riving down a s teep sl ope, redu ce
your spee d and sh ift into a lower gea r w ith
"t i ptronic" .
- Do not ride the brakes or press the bra ke
pedal too of ten o r too long when dr iv ing
down a hi ll. Constant braking ca uses the
brakes to ove rheat and substantially re­
