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

explos ive and increases the risk of serious
injury or death.
- Follow legal requirements when using,
storing and transporting fuel containers.
-Make sure the fuel container conforms to
industry standards (ANSI/ASTM F852-86).
CD Note
- Remove any overflowing fuel from the vehi
cle
paint immediately.
- Never drive
until the fuel tank is completely
empty. The irregular supply of fuel that re
sults from that can cause engine misfires.
Uncombusted
fuel will enter the exha ust
system and increase the risk of damage to
the catalytic converter.
@ For the sake of the environment
If the fuel nozzle is used correctly, it will indi
cate that the tank is full the first time it
switches off automatically. Do not try to add
more fuel, because it can spill over. Also, the
expansion space in the tank will fill, which can
result in fuel spilling out when it becomes
warm and polluting the environment.
Tips
If adverse weather conditions cause the fuel
filler door to freeze shut, press on the center
of the filler door with the heel of your hand
and then try opening it again.
(0 Tips
-If the engine is running while fueling, va
pors
can escape or the fuel can spill over.
Because
of this, the fuel nozzle switches off
before the tank is full.
-
Do not fuel the vehicle when the ignition is
switched on. Otherwise, the fuel gauge may
not show the correct level after fueling the
vehicle.
- Your vehicle
is equipped with a misfueling
guard.
It allows the vehicle to be fueled on
ly with the correct fuel pump nozzle.
- A worn
or damaged nozzle or a nozzle that
is too small may not be able to open the
diesel misfueling protector. If this is the
234
case, try turning the nozzle before inserting
it in the fuel filler neck, use a different fuel
pump or see an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility for assis
tance.
-The misfueling guard does not open when
adding fuel from a fuel container. When re
fueling with a reserve canister, you
must
use the funnel stored in the luggage com
partment qpoge 234, fig. 179.
