A WARNING
Improper care, servicing and repair proce
dures can increase the risk of personal injury
and death by preventing an airbag from de
ploying when needed or deploying an airbag
unexpectedly:
- 1
-Never cover, obstruct, or change the steer
ing wheel horn pad or airbag cover or the in
strument panel or modify them in any way.
- Never
attach any objects such as cup holders
or telephone mountings to the surfaces cov
ering
the airbag units.
- For cleaning
the horn pad or instrument
panel, use only a soft, dry cloth or one mois
tened with plain water. Solvents or cleaners
could damage the airbag cover or change
the stiffness or strength of the material so
that the airbag cannot deploy and protect
properly.
- Never repair,
adjust, or change any parts of
the airbag system.
-All work on the steering wheel, instrument
panel, front seats or electrical system (in
cluding
the installation of audio equipment,
cellular telephones and CB radios, etc.)
must be performed by a qualified technician
who has the training and special equipment
necessary.
- For any work on
the airbag system, we
strongly recommend that you see your au
thorized Audi dealer or qualified workshop.
- Never modify
the front bumper or parts of
the vehicle body.
- Always
make sure that the side airbag can
inflate without interference:
- Never install
seat covers or replacement
upholstery over the front seatbacks that
have not been specifically approved by
Audi.
- Never
use additional seat cushions that
cover the areas where the side airbags in
flate.
Airbag system
-Damage to the original seat covers or to
the seam in the area of the side airbag
module must always be repaired immedi
ately by an authorized Audi dealer.
-The airbag system can deploy only once. Af
ter an airbag has been deployed, it must be
replaced with new replacement parts de
signed and approved especially for your
Audi
model version. Replacement of com
plete airbag systems or airbag components
must be performed by qualified workshops
only. Make sure that any airbag service ac
tion is
entered in your Audi Warranty &
Maintenance booklet under AIRBAG RE
PLACEMENT RECORD.
-For safety reasons in severe accidents, the
alternator and starter are separated from
the vehicle battery with a pyrotechnic circuit
interrupter.
-Work on the pyrotechnic circuit interrupt
er must only be performed by a qualified
technicians who have
the experience, in
formation and special tools necessary to
perform the work safely.
-
If the vehicle or the circuit interrupter is
scrapped, all applicable safety precautions
must be followed.

Engine compartment
Working in the engine compartment
Special care is required if you are working in the
engine compartment
For work in the engine compartment such as
checking and filling fluids, there is a risk of in
jury, scald ing , accidents, and burns. For this
reason, follow all the following listed warnings
and general safety precautions. The engine
compartment is a dangerous area. ~ & .
I'
A WARNING
-Turn the engine off.
-switch the ignition off.
-
Set the parking brake.
-
Place the selector lever in the P position.
- Let
the engine cool down.
- Never
open the hood when you see that
steam or coolant drips from the engine
compartment-there is a danger of burns!
Wait unti l no steam or coolant flows out.
- Keep children away from the engine com
partment.
- Never spill fluids on a hot engine. These flu
ids (such
as the freeze protection contained
in the coolant) can catch fire.
- Avoid
short circuits in the electrical system,
especially the battery.
-When working in the engine compartment,
remember that the radiator fan can switch
on even
if the ignition is switched off, which
increases
the risk of personal injury.
236
- Never open the cap on the coolant expan
sion
tank when the engine is warm. The
cooling
system is under pressure.
-To protect your face, hands, and arms from
hot steam or coolant, cover the cap with a
large cloth when opening.
-Do not remove the engine cover under any
circumstances. This increases the risk of
burns.
-
If tests need to be performed with the en
gine running, there is additional danger due
to moving components (such as the ribbed
belt, alternator and radiator fan) and from
the high voltage ignition system.
-Do not under any circumstances give gas in
advertently (for example, by hand from the
engine compartment) if the vehicle is sta
tionary but the engine is running and a gear
is engaged. Otherwise the veh icle will start
to move immediately and could result in a
crash.
-
Pay attention to the following warnings list
ed when work on the fuel system or on the
electrical equipment is required.
- Always
disconnect the vehicle battery
from the vehicle electrical system.
-Do not smoke.
-Never work near open flames.
-Always have a working fire extinguisher
nearby
- To reduce
the risk of electric shock and in
jury, never
touch the follow ing components
when t he engine is running or is being start
ed:
- Ignition cable
-
Other components in the electronic high
voltage ignition system
-If you must check or perform work on the
engine while it is running:
-
Set the parking brake and place the selec
tor lever in the P (park) position first.
- Always
proceed with extreme caution so
that clothing, jewelry or long hair do not
become caught in the radiator fan, fan
belt or other moving components or do
not come into contact with hot compo-
nents. Tie back long hair before beginning .,..

quired
and the ne cessary expertise, we rec
ommend that you have the brake fluid
changed by your authorized Audi dealer.
Battery
General information
The battery in your Audi does not need any main
tenance under normal operating conditions. Audi
recommends having the electrolyte level check
by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility
when there are high outside tem
peratures or when driving all day. The electrolyte
level should also be checked each time the bat
tery is charged ~page 247.
Have the battery checked when you bring your ve
hicle
in for an inspection . It is a good idea to re
place
the battery if it is more than S years old.
Sometimes when the airbags deploy, the battery
will be disconnected from the vehicle electrical
system for safety reasons ~.&in Repair, care
and disposal
of the airbags on page 203.
Disconnecting the battery
The battery should not be disconnected. Several
vehicle functions (power windows, for
example)
will be lost when the battery is disconnected. The
functions must be reprogrammed after connect
ing the battery. To avo id this, the battery should
only be disconnected from the vehicle electrica l
system when it is absolutely necessary.
Not running the vehicle for long periods of
time
If you do not drive your vehicle for several days or
weeks, electrical consumers are gradually scaled
back
or switched off. This reduces energy use and
ensures the vehicle will be able to start after long
periods of time~ page 92. Some convenience
functions, su ch
as interior lighting or power seat
adjustment, may not be available under certain
circumstances. These convenience functions will
be available again once you switch
the ignition on
and start the engine.
Checking and Filling
Winter operation
A lot of stress is placed on the battery during
cold weather, which results in reduced starting
ability. Have the battery checked and recharged if
necessary
before the cold weather begins.
A WARNING
- Work on the battery requires expert know l
edge. Contact an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility for informa
tion regarding the vehicle battery. There is a
risk for chemical
burns or explosions.
- Never
open the vehicle battery. Do not try to
change the battery electrolyte level. Other
wise explosive
gas will escape from the bat
tery and increase the risk of an exp losion. ___ ....J
Working on the battery
Be especially careful when working on or near
the battery.
The battery is located in the luggage compart
ment under the floor . Before you check anything
in the luggage compartment, read and heed all
WARNINGS~_&.
Always heed the safety warnings , when working
on
the vehicle battery or the vehicle electrical
system to prevent injury.
The following WARNINGS are very important
when working on the battery:
Always heed the following WARNING SYM-
BOLS and safety precautions when working on
