Offroad driving
General information
The electronic stab il izat io n control (ESC) func­
tions were enhanced for driving offroad . Offroad
mode can be activated when driv ing in situa tions
whe re s lippage o r a d iffe ren tial lock f unct ion is
ne cessary

also availab le, w hic h automatically brakes the ve ­
hicle and maintains a constant speed as a res ult

t inuous all wheel dr ive.
However, yo ur Audi is not a purely offroad vehi ­
cle . Yo ur vehicle was not designed to drive under
extreme operating conditions s uch as driv ing in
an expedit ion style.
Onl y drive in terrain that is su itable fo r the vehi­
cle and you r dri ving ability. Never take any un­
ne cessa ry risks!
Befor e driving offroad
-Check the engine o il leve l, the tire p ressure, the
coo lant level and t he fluid leve l in t he washer

::r ' in the city and on curves or with a sporty driving
style.
Operating noise
Noises may occur when braking depending on the
speed , braking force and outside conditions such
as temperature and humidity.
Wet conditions or road salt
In certain situations, for example after driving
through water, in heavy ra in or after washing
your car, the braking effect may be reduced due
to moisture or ice on the brake rotors and brake
pads . The brakes must be "dried" first with a few
careful brake applications.
At higher speeds and with the windsh ie ld wipers
turned on, the brake pads press against the brake
rotors for a short amount of time. This action,
which is not felt by the driver, happens at regular
intervals and ensures a better reaction time for
the brakes in wet weather.
The braking effect can also be reduced if you are
driving on salted roads and you do not apply the
brakes for long periods of time . The layer of sa lt
on the brake rotors and pads must be worn off
first when the brakes are applied.
Corrosion
Leaving the vehicle parked for long periods of
time, low mi leage and avoiding heavy braking
can contribute to corrosion on the brake rotors
and to dirty brake pads.
If you usually avoid heavy braking or if there is
corrosion present, occasional heavy braking at
high speeds is recommended to clean the brake
rotors and pads¢
A.
Brake system malfunction
If you notice that the brake pedal travel has sud­
denly increased, then a brake circuit in the dual­
circuit brake system may have malfunctioned.
Drive to an authorized Audi dea ler or authorized
Audi Service Facility immediately to have the
problem corrected. On the way there, drive with
reduced speed and keep in mind that you will
need a longer distance to stop and you w ill need
to press the brake pedal harder .
Intelligent Technology
Low brake fluid level
When the brake fluid level is low, malfunctions in
the brake system may occur. The brake fluid level
is e lectronica lly monitored.
Brake booster
T he brake booster amplifies the pressure you ap­
ply to the brake pedal.
Ceramic brakes
Applies to: vehicles with ceramic brakes
Ceramic brakes provide excellent deceleration
rates .
The break-in period for new ceramic brakes may
be significantly longer than for standard brake
rotors. Due to the properties of the material,
they may cause noises at lower speeds. Ceramic
brakes also absorb more moisture in wet condi­
tions. Therefore, there will temporarily be less
braking force than when the brakes are dry. You
can compensate for this by pressing the brake
peda l harder.
& WARNING ~ -
- On ly app ly the brakes for the purpose of
cleaning the brake system when road and
traffic cond itions permit. You must not en­
danger other road users. This increases the
risk of an accident .
- Never let the vehicle roll while the engine is
stopped because this increases the risk of an
accident.
- Never place objects in the dr iver's footwell.
An object could end up in the area around
the pedals and prevent you from using
them. You would not be able to use the ped­
als if sudden driv in g or braking maneuvers
were needed, which increases the ris k of an
accident.
- Only use floor mats that do not obstruct the
area around the pedals and that can be se­
curely fastened in the footwells.
- To reduce the risk of injury, do not place
your foot under the brake pedal.

Checking and Filling
& WARNING
- A highly explosive mixture of gases can form
when charging batter ies . Only charge the
vehicle battery in well-vent ilated areas .
- A drained vehicle battery can freeze at tem­
peratures a round 32 QF (0 QC) . A frozen or
thawed veh icle battery must not be charged
and must not be used anymore. If ice fo rms,
the battery housing ca n crack and ba tte ry
electrolyte can lea k out, which increases the
risk of an explosion and chemi cal bu rns.
Contact an authorized Au di dea le r o r au­
tho rized Audi Serv ice Facility fo r more info r­
mation.
- Do not connect o r disconnect the ch arging
cable while charg ing because this increases
t h e risk of an exp losion.

- Only charge the vehicle battery through the
con nections in the engine compartment .
- Read a ll of t he manufacture r's ins tructions
for the charger befo re charg ing the vehicle
battery.

anti-freezing agent shou ld be added to the water
so that it does not freeze.
(D Note
- The concentration o f anti -freezing agent
must be adjusted to the ve hicle operating
conditions in the respective cl imate. A con­
centration that is too high can lead to vehi­
cle damage.
- Never add radiator anti-freeze or other addi­ tives to the washer fluid.
- Do not use a glass cleaner t hat contains
paint so lvents, because t his could damage
the paint.
