...
Connect one end of the black lead to the nega
tive terminal @of the boosting battery@.
... Connect the other end of the black jump lead to
the negative terminal© of the jump-start con
nection @ in your vehicle.
... Position
the jump leads in such a way that they
cannot come into contact with any moving
parts in the engine compartment.
Starting the engine
... Start
the engine of the vehicle with the boost
ing battery and let it run at idling speed.
... Now start the engine of the vehicle with the
discharged battery.
... If the engine fails to start: do not operate the
starter for longer than 10 seconds. Wait for
about 30 seconds and try again .
... Switch on the blower and the rear window heat
ing on the vehicle which has been jump-started
in order to offset excessive voltage which may
occur when disconnecting the leads. The head
lights must be switched off!
... When
the engines are running, disconnect the
leads in exactly the opposite sequence to that
described on ¢page 277, Connecting and dis
connecting the jump Leads. Make sure that the
leads cannot come into contact with any mov
ing parts in the engine compartment.
... Close the cap on the positive terminal.
... Switch off the blower and the rear window
heating again.
A WARNING
- The non-insulated parts of the battery
clamps must not be allowed to touch. The
jump lead attached to the positive battery
terminal must not touch metal parts of the
vehicle: this can cause short circuits.
- Do not lean over batteries -risk of chemical
burns!
- The screw plugs on the battery cells must be
screwed in firmly.
- Keep sparks, flame and lit cigarettes away
from vehicle batteries: the gases given off
can cause an explosion.
- If jump-starting another vehicle, position
the jump leads in such a way that they can
not come into contact with any moving
278 parts
in the engine compartment of the oth
er vehicle .
CD CAUTION
Please note that the above method of con
necting the leads is intended for jump-start
ing your vehicle. If jump-starting another ve
hicle, you should not connect the negative
Lead(-) to the negative terminal of the dis
charged vehicle battery, but directly to the
engine block or a solid metal part bolted to
the engine block. If the battery of the other
vehicle does not have a gas vent, there is a
risk that a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen
gas can accumulate and cause an explosion.
@ Note
- The vehicle battery is vented to the outside
to prevent gases entering the vehicle's inte
rior.
- Connect the battery clamps so they have
good metal-to-metal contact with the bat
tery terminals.
Tow-starting / towing
away
General notes
Some experience is required to tow or tow-start a
vehicle, especially when using a tow-rope. Both
drivers should be familiar with the technique re
quired for towing. Inexperienced drivers should
not attempt to tow-start or tow away another ve
hicle.
Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle and
take care to avoid jerking the tow-rope. When
towing off-road, there is always a risk that the
anchorage points may be overloaded.
Tow-bar I tow-rope
It is easier and safer to tow the vehicle with a
tow-bar. You should only use a tow-rope if you do
not have a tow-bar. It is advisable to use a tow
rope made of elastic synthetic fibre or similarly
elastic material.

Accessories and modifi

Accessories,
replacement parts and
repairs
It is best to consult an authorised Audi dealer
before purchasing accessories and replacement
parts or having any repairs carried out.
Your car is designed to offer a high standard of
active and passive safety. For this reason, we rec
ommend that you ask your Audi dealer for advice
before fitting accessories or replacement parts.
This is also very important if body repairs are re
quired. Audi dealers have full information on the
manufacturer-approved repair methods and can
recommend suitable accessories and spare parts.
They can also give advice regarding official re
quirements for the vehicle.
We recommend you to use only Audi accessories
and Audi Genuine Parts. Audi has tested these
products for suitability, reliability and safety.
Audi dealers have the necessary experience and
facilities to ensure that the parts are installed
properly.
Although the market is constantly scrutinised,
Audi cannot judge or assume responsibility for
the reliability, safety and suitability of non-genu
ine products -even though in some instances,
these parts may have been approved by an offi
cially recognised technical testing authority or
accompanied by an official approval certificate.
Any retro-fitted equipment which has a direct ef
fect on the vehicle and/or the way it is driven
(e.g. cruise control system or electronically-con
trolled suspension) must be approved for use in
your vehicle and bear thee mark (the European
Union's approval symbol).
If any additional electrical components are fit
ted which do not serve to control the vehicle it
self (for instance a refrigerator box, Laptop or
ventilator fan, etc.), these must bear the CE: mark
(manufacturer conformity declaration in the Eu
ropean Union). A
WARNING
Never attach accessories (such as cup holders
or telephone brackets) to the surfaces cover
ing the airbag units or the areas around the
airbags: this could cause injury if the airbag is
triggered.
(@ Note
- Since your vehicle has an all-aluminium
body, all servicing, repairs or other work on
the car body must be carried out by an Audi
workshop or a qualified workshop working
to the specifications of the Audi factory.
This ensures that the necessary repairs or
servicing are performed properly and that
only Audi Genuine Parts are installed on
your vehicle. Use of non-genuine replace
ment parts, equipment or accessories on
your vehicle, or repair of the vehicle by un
qualified persons may result in serious dam
age to your car (possibly including corro
sion).
- The manufacturer cannot be held Liable for
damage which occurs as a result of failure
to comply with these stipulations, and such
damage is not covered under warranty.
Modifications
Modifications must always be carried out accord
ing to our specifications.
Unauthorised modifications to the electronic
components or software in the vehicle may cause
malfunctioning. Due to the way the electronic
components are linked together in networks,
other systems may be affected by the faults. This
can seriously impair safety, Lead to excessive
wear of components, and also invalidate the type
approval for your vehicle.
You will appreciate that your Audi dealer cannot
be held liable for any damage caused by modifi
cations and/or work performed incorrectly.
We recommend that all work should be per
formed by an Audi workshop using Audi Genuine
Parts. ..,_
