A WARNING
r-=-
To help prevent poisonous exhaust gas from
being drawn into the vehicle, always keep the
rear lid closed while driving.
- Never
transport objects larger than those
fitting completely into the luggage area be­
cause the rear lid cannot be fully closed.
-
If you absolutely must drive with the rear lid
open, observe the following notes to reduce
the risk of poisoning:
-
Close all windows,
-
Open all air outlets in the instrument pan-
el,
-Switch off the air recirculation,
-
Set the fresh air fan to the highest speed.
A WARNING
Always make sure that the doors, all windows
and the rear lid are securely closed and locked
to reduce the risk of injury when the vehicle is
not being used.
- After closing
the rear lid, always make sure
that it is properly closed and locked.
- Never leave your vehicle
unattended espe­
cially with the rear lid left open. A child
could crawl into
the vehicle through the lug­
gage compartment and close the rear lid be­
coming trapped and unable to get out. Be­
ing trapped in a vehicle can lead to serious
personal injury.
- Nev er
let children play in or around the vehi­
cle.
- Never
let passengers ride in the luggage
compartment. Vehicle occupants must al­
ways be properly restrained in one of the ve­
hicle's seating positions.
(D Tips
-Air circulation helps to reduce window fog­
ging. Stale air escapes to the outside
through vents in the trim panel, on the left
side of the luggage compartment. Be sure
to keep these slots free and open.
Safe driving
-The tire pressure must correspond to the
load. The tire pressure is shown on the tire
pressure label. The tire pressure label is lo­
cated on the driver's side B-pillar. The tire
pressure label lists the recommended cold
tire inflation
pressures for the vehicle at its
maximum capacity
weight and the tires that
were on your vehicle at the time it was man­
ufactured. For recommended tire pressures
for normal load conditions, please see chap­
ter r:;. page 261.
Tie-down s
The luggage compartment is equipped with four
ti e-downs to secure luggage
and other items.
Fig. 144 Location of the tie-downs in the luggage com­
partment
Use the tie-downs to secure your cargo properly
r:;. page 176, Loading the luggage compartment.
In a collision, the laws of physics mean that even
smaller items that are loose in the vehicle will
become heavy missiles that can cause serious in­
jury . Items in the vehicle possess energy which
vary with vehicle
speed and the weight of the
item. Vehicle speed is the most significant factor.
For example, in a frontal collision at a speed of
30 mph (48 km/h), the forces acting on a 10 lbs
(4.5 kg) object
are about 20 times the normal
weight of the item. This means that the weight
of the item would suddenly be about
200 lbs (90 kg). You can imagine the injuries that
a 200 lbs (90 kg) item flying freely through the
passenger compartment could cause in a colli­
sion like this.

Child seats
Infant seats
Babies and infants up to about one year old and
20 lbs or 9 kg need special rearward-facing child
restraints
that support the back, neck and head
in a crash.
Fig. 166 Schemat ic overview : rearward -facing infant seat,
properly installed on the rear seat

"'Secure unused safety belts on the rear seat
9page 217.
Infants up to about one year (20 lbs or 9 kg) are
best protected in specia l infant carriers and child
safety seats designed for their age group. Many
experts believe that infants and small children
should ride only in special restraints in which the
child faces the back of the vehicle. These infant
seats support the baby 's back, neck and head in a
crash 9fig. 166.
The airbag on the passenger side makes the front
seat a potentially dangerous place for a child to
ride. The front seat is not the safest place for a
child
in a forward-facing child seat. It is a very
218
dangerous place for an infant or a larger child in
a rearward-facing seat.
A WARNING
Not using a child safety seat, using the wrong
child safety seat or improperly installing a
child
restraint increases the risk of serious
personal injury and death in a crash.
- Never install rear-facing child
safety seats
or infant carriers on the front passenger
seat -even with an Advanced Airbag System.
A child will be seriously injured and can be
killed when the inflating airbag hits the
child safety seat or infant carrier with great
force and smashes the child safety seat and
child
against the backrest, center armrest,
door or roof~ page 189, Child restraints on
the front seat -some important things to
know.
-Always install rear-facing chi ld safety seats
or infant carriers on the rear seat.
-Never install a rear-facing child restraint in
the forward-facing direction. Such restraints
are designed for the special needs of infants
and very small children and cannot protect
them properly if the seat is forward-facing.
-
If you must install a rearward facing child
safety seat on the front passenger seat be­
cause of exceptional circumstances and the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light does not
come on and stay on, immediately install
the rear-facing child safety seat in a rear
seating position and have th e a irbag system
inspected by your Audi dealer.
- Never pl
ace or use any electrical device
(such
as a laptop, CD player, electronic
games d evice, power inverter or seat heater
for child seats) on the front passenger seat
if the device is connected to the 12-volt
socket or the cigare tte lighter socket.
-
If a seat heater has been retrofitted or oth­
erwise added to the front passenger seat,
never install any child restraint system on
this seat.

Fueling procedure
Fig. 177 Right re ar vehicle side: opening the fuel filler
door
Fig. 178 Engaged fuel pump nozzle
The fuel filler door is unlocked or locked by the
central locking system.
.. Press on the fuel filler door to open -arrow-
Q fig. 177. Your vehicle comes with a new tank
system without a cap.
.. Insert the fuel pump nozzle all the way into the
tankfiller neck ~fig. 178. Make sure it is cor ­
rectly locked
in place.
.. Begin fueling. Once the pump nozzle switches
off, the fuel tank is "full" . Do not fill the tank
more. Otherwise the expansion space in the
tank will be filled .
.. Pull the pump nozzle out of the tank filler neck
five
seconds after i t has switched off, so that
the rest of the fuel can flow out of the pump
nozzle into the filler neck.
.. Close fuel filler door until it latches.
The correct fuel type for your vehicle can be
found on a label located on the inside of the fuel
filler door. For additional information on fuel re-'
fer to ¢page231.
The fuel tank capacity of your vehicle is listed in
the Technical Data section Qpage 299.
Checking and Filling
.&. WARNING
Not paying attention when fueling or han­
dling fuel incorrectly can lead to fires, explo­
sions or serious injuries.
- Fuel igni
tes easily and can cause serious
burns and other injuries .
-
-If you do not switch the engine off when fu­
eling and/or do not insert the fuel nozzle
completely into the tank opening, fuel can
leak
out or run over . Leaked fuel can ignite
and start a fire.
-
Do not use the telephone while fueling . The
electromagnetic rays can cause sparks,
which can ignite fuel vapors and start a fire.
-
Do not sit in your vehicle while fueling. If
you must make an exception and enter your
vehicl e again while fueling, close the door
and touch metal to discharge static electric­
ity
before touching the fuel nozzle . Static
electricity can create sparks, which can ig­
nite vapors when fueling.
-
Do not smoke or have an open f lame in the
area when fueling your vehicle or filling a
fuel container because this increases the
risk of an explosion .
- For
your safety, carrying fuel containers in
your vehicle is not recommended. Whether
full or empty, the container can leak and
cause a fire in the event of an accident .
-
If you must make an exception and trans­
port a fuel container, note the following :
- Never fill
the fuel container with fuel
while it is in or on the vehicle . Static elec­
tricity is discharged when filling which can
cause the fuel vapors to ignite and in­
creases the risk of an exp losion .
-Always place a fuel container on the
ground before filling .
- Always hold
the fuel nozzle completely in
the fuel container when filling .
-
If the fuel container is made of metal, the
fuel nozzle must always be in contact with
the container when filling it with fuel. This
prevents static electricity from discharg­
ing.
- Never
spill fuel in the vehicle or the lug­
gage compartment. Evaporated fuel is

Catalytic converter
It is very important that your emission control
system (catalytic converter) is functioning prop­
erly to ensure
that your vehicle is running in on
environmentally sound manner.
.,.. Always use lead-free gasoline Q page 231, Gas­
oline grade .
.. Never run the tank down all the way to empty.
.. Never put too m uch motor oil in your engine
Q page 240, Adding engine oil "t::r..
.. Never try to push-or tow-start your vehicle.
The
catal ytic converter is an efficient "clean-up"
device built into the exhaust system of the vehi­
cle. The catalytic
converter burns many of the
pollutants in the exhaust gas before they are re­
leased into
the atmosphere .
Checking and Filling
The exclusive use of unleaded fuel is critically im­
portant for the life of the catalytic converter and
proper functioning of the engine.
A WARNING
f= - I
The temperature of the exhaust system is
high, both when driving and after stopping
the engine.
- Never
touch the exhaust tail pipes once they
have become hot. This could result in burns.
-Do not park or operate the vehicle in a reas
where the hot exhaust system may come in
contact with dry grass, brush, fuel spill or
other material which can cause a fire .
-
Do not appl y additional undercoating or
r ustproofing on or near the exhaust mani­
fold, exhau
st pipes, catalytic converter or
heat shields. During driving, the substance
used for un dercoating could overheat and
cause a fire.
CD Note
-Be aware that just one tank filli ng with
leaded fuel w ill already seriously degrade
the performance of th e c atalytic converter .
-
Do not exceed the correct engine oil leve l
Qpoge240 .
-Do not drive until the fuel tank becomes
completely empty. The engi ne could mis­
fire. Unbu r
ned fuel coul d also get into the
exhaust system and this could cause the
ca ta lyt ic co nver ter to overheat.
-Do not swi tch off the ignition whil e the vehi ­
