- The tyre pressure must be adjusted accord­
ing to the Load the vehicle is carrying
¢page 256.
-Air circulation in the vehicle helps reduce
fogging of the windows. Used air escapes
through ventilation slots in the rear of the
vehicle. Make sure that these ventilation
slots are not obstructed.

Fig. 186 Luggage compartment: Location of fastening
rings
� Use the fastening rings to secure items safely
in the Luggage compartment ¢.&. in Luggage
compartment on page 22 7.
During a collision or an accident, even small and
Light objects can possess so much energy that
they can cause very severe injuries. The amount
of this "kinetic energy" depends on the speed of
the vehicle and the weight of the object. The
most significant factor, however, is the speed of
the vehicle.
For example: an object weighing 4.5 kg is Lying
unsecured in the vehicle. During a frontal colli­
sion at a speed of 50 km/h, this object generates
a force corresponding to 20 times its weight.
That means that the effective weight of the ob­
ject increases to about 90 kg. You can imagine
the severity of the injuries which might be sus-
228 tained
if this "projectile" strikes an occupant as it
flies through the passenger compartment.
A WARNING
If items of Luggage or other objects are se­
cured to the fastening rings with inappropri­
ate or damaged tensioning straps, injuries
could result in the event of sudden braking or
a collision.
- To prevent pieces of Luggage or other ob­
jects from flying forward, always use appro­
priate tensioning straps which are properly
secured to the fastening rings.
- Never secure a child seat on the fastening
rings.
Pedestrian protection
system
Description
Applies to: vehicles with pedestrian protection system
The pedestrian protection system is automatical­
ly activated in the event that the front of the ve­
hicle collides with a pedestrian. The bonnet is
raised slightly to create an additional crush zone
above the engine.
The sensors of the pedestrian protection system
are Located in the front bumper. In rare cases,
the system can be triggered because the possibil­
ity that a pedestrian has been hit cannot be ruled
out by the sensors, for example:
- in a collision with a signpost,
- in a collision with an animal, or
- if you drive into a pile of snow, or
- in the event of ground contact, e.g. when driv-
ing on extremely poor road surfaces.
If the system has been activated, press the bon­
net back into its original position ¢.&. in Servic­
ing the pedestrian protection system on
page 229 and have the system serviced by a
qualified workshop.
A WARNING
- Do not use an additional or replacement
number plate holder other than the original
one fitted at the front of the vehicle.

Never change or replace the bumper or bon­
net as a part of tuning measures. This can
impair the effectiveness of the pedestrian
protection system and invalidate the oper­
ating permit for your vehicle.
- False activation of the pedestrian protection
system is possible.
Servicing the pedestrian protection system
Applies to: vehicles with pedestrian protection system
Fig. 187 Pressing back/checking the bonnet

yourself or others -risk of injury!
- The system can only be activated once. If
the pedestrian protection system has been
triggered, have it replaced without delay by
a qualified workshop.
CD CAUTION
- All repairs to the bumper and the pedes­
trian protection system must only be carried
out by a qualified workshop working to the
specifications of the Audi factory. Improper
repairs can impair the effectiveness of the
system and invalidate the operating permit
for your vehicle.

CX) Airbag
system
Description of airbag
system
General notes on airbag system
The airbag is an integral part of the car's passive
safety system.
In conjunction with the seat belts, the airbag sys­
tem gives the front occupants additional protec­
tion for the head and chest in the event of a se­
vere frontal collision.
In a severe side collision the side airbags reduce
the risk of injury to the occupants ¢,&..
In addition to their normal function of protecting
the occupants in a collision, the seat belts also
hold them in a position where the airbags can in­
flate properly and provide maximum protection.
The airbag system will only work with the igni­
tion on. The airbag system is monitored electron­
ically; the indicator lamp m indicates whether
the system is functioning properly.
The main parts of the airbag system are:
- The electronic monitoring system (control unit
and sensors)
- The two front airbags
- The two side airbags
- The indicator lamp El in the instrument cluster
There is a fault in the airbag system if the
warning lamp
- does not come on when the ignition is switched
on.
- does not go out about 4 seconds after the igni­
tion is switched on.
- goes out and then comes on again after the ig­
nition is switched on.
- comes on or flickers while the car is moving.
A WARNING
- The airbags are not a substitute for the seat
belts; they are an integral part of the car's
overall passive safety system. The airbags
can only offer effective protection if the oc­
cupants are wearing their seat belts. For Airbag
system
this reason it is very important to wear the
seat belts at all times ¢ page 230, Why is it
so important to use seat belts?.
- The seat belts and airbags can only provide
maximum protection if the occupants are
seated correctly ¢ page 54, Front seats.
- If you do not wear a seat belt, if you lean
forward, or are not seated correctly while
the vehicle is in motion, you are at greater
risk of injury should the airbag system be
triggered in an accident.
- Components of the airbag system are loca­
ted in various parts of the vehicle. If repairs
to other vehicle components make it neces­
sary to perform work on the airbag system
or to remove or install parts of the airbag
system, this may cause damage to the air­
bag system. As a result, the airbags may not
inflate correctly or may not be triggered at
all in an accident situation. For this reason,
you should always have the work carried out
by a qualified workshop.
- If a fault should occur in the airbag system,
have the system checked immediately by a
qualified workshop. Otherwise the system
may fail to trigger in an accident.
- Do not attempt to modify components of
the airbag system in any way.
- Never make any alterations to the front
bumper or the body.
- Do not remove the seats.
- The airbag system can only be activated
once; if the airbag has been triggered, the
system must be replaced. Should the airbag
system or airbag modules have to be re­
placed, the qualified workshop carrying out
the replacement will document all details.
- If any repair work is required or the airbag
and restraint systems have to be replaced,
have the work carried out by your authorised
Audi dealer or a qualified workshop which
adheres to the Audi factory standards. This
will minimise the risk of injury.
- If you sell the vehicle, remember to pass on
the complete Service Wallet to the new
owner. If any of the airbags have been deac­
tivated, it is important that the new owner
is also given the relevant documents.

Engine oil
Choosing the correct engine oil grade
The service interval display in the instrument
cluster of your vehicle will inform you when it is
time for an oil change. We recommend having
the oil changed by a qualified workshop.
If you have to top up the oil between oil changes,
use the grades of oil specified in the table in ac­
cordance with VW standards.
- the vehicle is being serviced based on the flexi­
ble or fixed oil change service (see last service
record).
- the vehicle has a petrol or diesel engine (see
sticker on inside of fuel tank flap).

to¢ page 288 .
Clean water should be used when topping up. If
possible, use soft water to prevent scaling on the
washer jets. Always add washer fluid to the wa­
ter. In cold weather you should add anti-freeze to
the water to prevent it from freezing.
CD CAUTION
- The anti-freeze concentration must be
matched to the climate of the country in
which you are driving. If the concentration
is too high, damage to the car may result.
- Never put in radiator anti-freeze or other
additives.
- Never use washer fluid which contains paint
thinners or solvents as it can damage the
paintwork.
Service interval display
The service interval display detects when the
next service is due for your vehicle .
There are two service interval display levels:
- Inspection or oil change reminder: After a cer­
tain mileage, a service reminder will appear on
the infotainment display each time the ignition
is switched on/off. The distance or time re­
maining will be shown briefly.
- Inspection or oil change due: When your vehi­
cle is due for an inspection, oil change or both,
the corresponding reminder Inspection due!,
Oil change due! or Oil change and inspection
due! will appear briefly after you switch the ig­
nition on/off.
Checking the service intervals
You can look up the distance and time remaining
until the next oil change and next service inspec­
tion. Select the following on the infotainment
system: IM EN u I button > Car > left control but­
ton > Servicing & checks > Service intervals.

CX) You
cannot check the service interval on a new
vehicle until it has been driven for about 500 km.
Qualified workshops reset the service interval af­
ter the oil is changed. The distance to the next oil
change is initially displayed based on the driving
profile prior to the oil change. Your own personal
driving profile is used subsequently to calculate
the remaining distance. Frequent cold starts or
short trips place extra demands on the engine oil
with the result that the oil has to be changed
more often.
Resetting the display
Your qualified workshop resets the service inter­
val display after each service.
It is very important that you reset the oil change
display if you change the oil yourself. The next oil
change will be due after a fixed service interval.
To reset the display, select the following on the
infotainment system: !MENU! button> Car > left
control button > Servicing & checks > Service in­
tervals > Reset oil change interval.
CD CAUTION
- Do not reset the oil change interval display
unless you have changed the oil.
- Keeping to the correct service intervals is
most important for the service life and re­
sidual value of the vehicle (and especially
for the life of the engine). Services must al­
ways be carried out promptly, even if the
mileage is low. Checking

For the sake of the environment
Under-inflated tyres will increase the fuel
consumption. -------------
We recommend always using either the tyre
pressure setting (D for partial loads or the
setting @for full loads.
Wheel bolts and rims
Wheel bolts
The wheel bolts should be clean and turn easily.
A special adapter is required to turn the anti­
theft wheel bolts* cc> page 2 73.
Rims Rims with a bolted rim flange* or bolted trim
parts* consist of several components. A special
technique is applied to bolt these components
together. Never attempt to repair or dismantle
them c:::>A.
A WARNING
If the wheel bolts have not been tightened or
serviced correctly, they can come loose, and
you could lose control of the vehicle -risk of
accident! For the correct tightening torque,
refer to cc> page 2 75, A�er changing a wheel.
- Make sure that the wheel bolts and threads
in the wheel hubs are always clean and free
from grease.
- Only use wheel bolts that are designed to
match the rims on your car.
- Always have damaged rims repaired by a
qualified workshop. Never attempt to repair
or dismantle rims yourself -risk of accident!
Winter tyres
In winter road conditions winter tyres will consid­
erably improve the car's handling. Due to their
type of construction (width, rubber compound,
tread pattern), summer tyres give less grip on ice
and snow.
� Winter tyres must be fitted on all four wheels . Wheels
� Only use winter tyres of the correct type ap­
proved for your vehicle.
� Please note that the maximum permissible
speed for winter tyres may be lower than for
summer tyres cc>.&_ . Your specialist retailer can
advise you of the maximum speed for your
tyres.
� After fitting the wheels you must always check
the tyre pressures cc> page 256.
Winter tyres lose their effectiveness when the
tread is worn down to a depth of 4 mm. The per­
formance of winter tyres is also severely impaired
by ageing, even if the tread is still much deeper
than 4 mm.
A WARNING
- Never exceed the maximum approved speed
for your tyres. This causes the tyres to over­
heat and can even result in a blow-out -risk
of accident!
- Always adapt your driving style to the pre­
vailing road and traffic conditions. Drive
carefully and reduce your speed on icy or
slippery roads. Even winter tyres lose their
grip on black ice.
@ For the sake of the environment
Summer tyres should be fitted again as
soon
as possible; they give better handling on
roads which are free of snow and ice. They are
quieter, do not wear so quickly and reduce
fuel consumption.
(© Note
All-weather tyres can also be used instead of
winter tyres. Please note that winter tyres
with the£ symbol are required by law during
the winter season in some countries.
Snow chains
Snow chains will improve braking ability as well
as traction in winter conditions.
� Snow chains can be used on the front wheels
only. This also applies to vehicles with four-
wheel drive*.
