-If you a re unable to determine whether or
not a particular fuel blend
meets the speci­
fications, ask your service station or its fuel
supplier.
-
Do not use fuel for which the contents can­
not be identified.
- Fuel system damage and performance prob­
lems resulting from
the use of fuels differ­
ent from those specified are not the respon­
sibility of
Audi and are not covered under
the New Vehicle or the Emission Control
System Warranties.
- If you experience a loss of fuel economy or
driveability and performance problems due
to
the use of one of these fuel blends, we
recommend
that you switch to unblended
fuel.
Gasoline additives
A major concern among many auto manufactur­
ers
is carbon deposit build-up caused by the type
of gasoline
you use .
Although gasoline grades differ from one manu­
facturer
to another, they have certain things in
common. All gasoline grades contain substances
that can cause deposits to collect on vital engine
parts, such as fuel injectors and intake valves.
Al­
though most gasoline brands include additives to
keep engine and fuel systems clean, they are not
equally effective .
Audi recommends using TOP TIER Detergent Gas­
oline.
For more information on TOP TIER Deter­
gent Gasoline, please go to the official website
(www.toptiergas .com).
After an extended period
of using inadequate
fuels, carbon deposit build-ups can rob your en­
gine of peak performance.
CD Note
Damage or malfunction due to poor fuel qual­
ity
is not covered by the Audi New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.

Refueling
Fuel filler neck
The fuel filler neck is located on the right rear
side panel behind
the fuel filler flap.
If the power locking system should fail, you can
still open
the flap manually -for detailed instruc­
tions see
~page 235.
You can find the fuel tank capacity of your vehicle
in ~page 299.
The label on the inside of the fuel filler flap tells
you
the correct fuel for your vehicle. For more in­
formation about fuel specifications, see
~page 231.
Your vehicle fuel tank has an on board refuelling
vapor recovery system. This feature helps to pre­
vent fuel vapors from escaping from
the tank and
polluting
the environment while you refuel your
vehicle .
In order to fill the tank properly while
protecting
the environment, please follow this
refueling procedure carefully.
.&. WARNING
Under normal operating conditions, never car­
ry additional fuel containers in your car. Gas
canisters and other containers used to trans­
port fuel can be dangerous. Such containers,
full or empty, may leak and could cause a fire
in a collision. If you must transport fuel to
use for your lawn mower, snow blower, etc.,
be very careful and always observe local and
state laws regarding the use, transportation
and storage of such fuel containers.
Make cer­
tain the container
meets industry standards
(ANSI/ASTM F8S2 -86).
{[) Note
Never drive your vehicle until the fuel tank is
completely empty. The irregular supply
of
fuel can cause misfiring. Gasoline could enter
the exhaust system and damage the catalytic
converter.

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
