,&_ WARNING
-Never turn off the engine before the veh icle
has come to a complete stop . T he f ull func­
tion of the brake booster and the power
steering is not guaranteed. You must use more force to turn or brake if necessary . Be­
cause you cannot steer and b rake as you
us ually wou ld, this could lead to crashes
and ser ious injuries.
- To red uce the risk of injuries, make s ure that
the Start-Stop-System is turned off when
wor king in the eng ine compartment

appears in the tr ip computer .
.,. When you take your foot off the brake peda l,
the engine restarts. The ind icator light tu rns
off .
Additional information
The engine wi ll switch off in the P, D/S and N po­
sitions as we ll as in manual mode. I n the P pos i­
tion, the engine will also remain off if you take
your foot off the brake pedal. The engine starts

Hybrid
Start-Stop function
The combustion engine is operated on ly as need­
ed . Generally, the combustion engine turns off
when the vehicle is stationary and the high volt­
age battery powers the electrical vehicle sys ­
tems.
The purpose o f automatica lly shutting the com­
bustion engine off in hybrid drive mode is to save
fuel. All of the important vehicle systems, such
as steering, brakes and the A/C system, continue
to remain active. In some cases , systems may re­
qu ire the combustion eng ine to continue running
when the vehicle is stationary . When dr iv ing in
congested traff ic for long per iods of t ime, the
combustion eng ine will cycle on when the veh icle
is stationary to keep the high voltage battery
charged.
Gliding
If the gas pedal is not pressed and the D posit ion
is selected, the combustion engine remains
turned off up to speeds of approximately 99 mph
(160 km/h) . Driving conservative ly like th is can
reduce fuel con5umption .
Energy recovery (recuperation)
When braking, the electric motor will act as a
generator creating e lectr ic energy that is then
sto red in the high voltage battery. This also oc­
curs when the vehicle is coasting or driving down­
hi ll. The combustion engine is automat ica lly
turned off in this case .
Tips for Driving Efficiently with your Hybrid
Appl ies to: ve hicles w ith hyb rid drive
Driving situa- Conditions
tions
- Shift into the D position .
Starting from a -
Release the brake pedal. The vehicle is braked with
the electric motor by
applying early and even pressure to the brakes
and using short pedal movements
¢ page 101,
fig. 116 @. By doing this, a large amount of the
kinet ic energy is recovered and may be stored as
electric energy in the high voltage battery. Dur ­
i ng heavy brak ing , the conventional brakes are al­
so act ivated
¢ page 101, fig . 116 @.
The energy recovery is shown in the MMI display
¢page 107 .
Automatic start of the combustion engine
Various operating conditions cause the combus ­
tion eng ine to start automatically:
- Th e high voltage battery charge level is low.
- Th e temperature of the combustion engine is
low .
- Th e temperature of the catalytic converter is
low .
- T he power output needed for the A/C system is
high.
- The vehicle speed is high .
- The vehicle acceleration is high .
- The incline is steep .
- High charge level for the high voltage battery
when coasting. In this case, the high voltage battery cannot absorb any more energy and so
the electric motor cannot slow down the veh i­
cle. The combust ion engine turns o n (engine
brake) . In this situation the high voltage bat­
t ery w ill show a Max charge.

Intelligent Technology
Intelligent Technology
Electronic Stabilization
Control (ESC)
Description
The Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC) reinfor­
ces driver safety . It reduces the risk of slipping
and improves driving stability. ESC detects crit i­
cal s ituations such as the vehicle oversteering
and understeering or the wheels sp inning. The
veh icle is stab ilized by applying the brakes or re­
ducing engine torque . Once t he ESC is active, the
indicator light
Ji) blinks in t he instrument clus­
ter.
The fo llow ing systems are integrated in the ESC :
Ant i-loc k brake system (ABS)
ABS preve nts the wheels from locking up when
braking. The veh icle can still be steered even dur­
ing hard brak ing. Apply steady pressure to the
brake pedal. Do not pump t he pedal. A pulsing in
the brake pedal indicates that the system is help ­
i n g you to brake the vehicle .
Br ake assist system
The brake assist system can decrease brak ing dis­
tance . It increases braking power when the driver
presses the brake pedal quick ly in emergency sit­
uations . You must press and hold the b rake pedal
until the situa tion is over. In vehicles w it h adap­
tive c ruise contro l* , the brake assist system is
mo re sensit ive if the di stance de te cte d to the ve­
h icle ahead is too small.
Anti -slip regulation (ASR)
ASR reduces eng ine power when the drive wheels
begin to spin and adapts t he force to the road
conditions . This makes it easie r to sta rt, acceler­
ate and dr ive up h ills.
Electronic differential lock (EDL )
The EDL brakes w heels that a re spinning and
transfers the drive power to the other whee ls .
This f unction is not avai lab le at higher speeds.
In extreme cases, EDL automatically switches off
to help keep the brake on the braked wheel from
186
overheating . EDL will sw itch on again automati ­
ca lly when conditions have returned to normal.
Steering recommendation
The ESC he lps to s tabilize the vehicle by chang ing
t h e s teer ing torque.
On vehicles with dynam ic steeri ng*, ESC helps
stab ilize the steer ing in crit ica l sit uat io ns.
Selective wheel torque control
Se lective wheel torque cont rol is used when driv­
i ng on curves. The front whee l on the inside of
the curve or both wheels on the inside of the cu rve are braked se lectively as needed. This al­
l ows mo re precise dr iving in c urves . The applica­
ble system may not ac tiv ate when d riving in wet
o r snowy cond it ions.
_&. WARNING
- The ESC and i ts in teg ra ted systems can not
overcome the laws of physics . This is espe ­
cially important on slippery or wet roads. If
the systems begin act ing to stab ilize your
veh icle, you should immediately change
your speed to match the road and traffic conditions. Do not let the increased safety
provided by t hese systems tempt yo u to
take risks. Doing so will i ncrease the r isk of
a loss of vehicle con trol, collisi on and se ri­
ous person al injur ies.
- Always a dapt your speed to road, traffic and
weather condi tions. The risk of los ing c on­
t rol of the vehicle in creases w hen driving
too fast, es pecially through curves and on
slippe ry or wet roads, and when driving too
close to ve hicles up ahead. The ESC and its
integ rated systems cannot always prevent
col lisions - there is still a risk of accidents!
- Always accelerate w ith special care on even,
smooth su rfaces s uch as those that are wet
or covered wit h ice and snow. The drive
wheels can spin even w it h these assistance
sys tems t hat cannot a lways help to reduce
t he risk of loss of vehicle co ntro l.

-Before descending a steep grade , reduce
speed and shift transm iss ion into a lower
gear or lower driving range. Do not ride the
brakes or hold the pedal down too long or
too often . This could cause the brakes to get
hot and d iminish brak ing efficiency .
- Do not "r ide the brakes" by resting your foot
on the pedal when you do not intend to
bra ke. This may cause the bra kes to over­
heat , premat ure wea r and increased stop­
ping distance.
- Under certa in climat ic and operating condi­
tions su ch as p assing thro ugh w ater, dr iving
in heavy ra in or after washing the vehicle,
the ef fectiveness of the brakes can be re­
duced. In winter, ice can acc umulate on the
brake pads, linings, discs and drums . Care­
fully apply b rakes for a test. Brakes wi ll dry
and ice coatings wi ll be cleaned off after a
few careful brake applications .
- Driv ing for an extended period of time on
salt-covered roads without using your
bra kes can also affect bra king efficiency .
Clean off accumulated sa lt coating from
bra ke discs and pads with a few caref ul
bra ke appl ic a tion s.
- If you damage the front spoiler, or if yo u in­
sta ll a differen t spoi le r, be sure the air flow
to the front br akes is not o bstru cte d. O the r­
wise the br ake system could over heat reduc­
ing the e ffec tiveness of the entire brake sys ­
tem.
- Failure of one brake circuit will imp air the
brak ing capability resulting in an increased
stopping distance . Avoid driving the vehicle
and have it towed to the nearest a uthorized
Audi dealer or qualif ied workshop.
- Never let the vehicle roll to a stop with the
engine shut off .
- If the brake booster is not wor king, the
brake pedal m ust be pressed considerably
harder to make up for the lack of booster
assistance .
