A WARNING
- Only adjust the front seat when the vehicle
i s sta tionary. Otherwise, this increases the
risk of an accident
46
- The power front seats can also be adjusted
when the ignition is switched off. For this reason, children should never be left unat
tended in the vehicle because they could be injured.
- Exercise caution when adjust ing the seat
he ight. Unsupervised or ca reless seat ad
justment can pinch fingers or hands caus ing
in ju ries .
- The front seat backrests must not be re
clined too far back when d riving, because
this impa irs the effect iveness of the safety
be lts and a irbag sy stem, whi ch in creases
the risk of in jury.
- To m inimi ze the r isk of inj ury dur ing s udden
braking or a collision, the dr iver and the
front passenger must not drive or ride with
the backrest in the reclined position. The
safety belts and a irbag system can o nly pro
vide the greatest protection possible when
the backrests are in the upright posit ion and
the safety belts are worn correctly. The more a backrest is reclined, the greater the
risk of injury due to an incorrect seating po
si tion and safety belt posit ion .

Avoid full acceler ation
You sho uld rare ly t rave l a t t he maxim um vehicle
speed . High speeds cause a disproportionately
h igh increase in fuel consumption, emissions and
traffic noise . Slower driving saves fuel.
Reduce idling time
It pays off to stop the eng ine, for example when
at ra ilroad crossings or traffi c lights w ith longer
red lights . Stopping the engine for 30 -40 sec
onds already saves more fuel than the amount of
extra fuel needed to restart the engine.
I t takes a very long time in idle to wa rm the en
gine up to operating tempera ture . Wea r and
emissions are especially high in the warm -up
p hase . Therefore, you should begin driving im
mediately after starting the engine. Avoid high
RPMs while do ing th is.
Hav e ma intenanc e performed r egularly
By having maintenance performed regu lar ly on
your vehicle, you can he lp to reduce fuel con
sumption before yo u even start to drive. The
maintenance condition of your vehicle not only
affects traffic safety and long-term va lue but al
so impacts
fu el con sumpt ion .
A poorly maintained engine can lead to fuel con
sumpt ion that is 10% higher than norma l.
A lso check the
o il l evel when refueling . The oil
consumpt ion
depends large ly on the engine load
and speed. It is normal for the oil consumption
of a new eng ine to reach its lowest point only af
ter a certain amount of use. Therefore, the oil
consumption can only be properly judged after
approx imately 3,000 m i (S,000 km) have been
driven.
Avoid short trips
The engine and exhaust clean ing system must
reach their opt imal
op erating temp eratur e to ef
fective ly reduce consumpt ion and emiss ions.
A co ld engine uses a disproportionately h igh
amount of fuel. The eng ine reaches operating
temperature and consumpt ion normalizes only
afte r approx imately
2.5 miles (4 km) .
Driving
@ Note
Do not leave engine idling unattended after
start ing. If warning lights sho uld come on to
i ndicate improper operation, they would go
unheeded. Extended idling also produces
heat, which could resu lt in overheating or
other damage to the veh icle o r other proper
ty.
@ Note
- Have your ve hicle ma intained properly and
in accordance w ith the service recommenda
tions i n your Warranty
& Main tenance book
let. La ck of prope r mai nte nan ce as we ll as
imp rope r use of t he ve hicle will impa ir the
function of the em iss ion cont ro l system and
co uld lead to damage .
- Do not alte r or remove any compone nt o f
t he Emission Contro l System unless ap
proved by the man ufacturer .
- Do not alte r or remove any dev ice, s uch as
heat shields, switc hes, ignition wires,
valves, which are designed to protect your
vehicle's Emission Contro l System and other
impo rtant ve hicle components.
(D Tips
The cons umption estimates as published by
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
(EPA) and T ransport Canada may not co rre
spond to your actual consumption on the r oad, wh ich w ill vary depending upon veh icle
l oad and speed, road and weather cond itions,

Tire wear/damage

tor
Tire wear
Check the tires regular ly for wear.
-Inflation pressure that is too low
or high can increase tire wear
considerably.
-Driving quickly through curves, rapid acceleration and heavy
braking increase tire wear.
-Have an authorized Audi dea ler
or authorized Audi Service Facili
ty check the wheel alignment if
there is unusual wear.
-Have the wheels rebalanced if an imbalance is causing noticeable
vibration in the steering wheel.
If you do not, the tire s and other
vehicle components could wear more quickly.
~ l) Obey any applicable regulations in your 0
[;:; country. 00
Wheels
Treadwear indicator
Original equipment tires contain
treadwear indicators in the tread
pattern, which are bars that are 1/16 in (1.6 mm) high and are
spaced evenly around the tire per pendicular to the running direc
tion
c:> fig. 188. The letters "TWI"
or triangles on the tire sidewall indicate the location of the tread
wear indicators.
The tires have reached the mini
mum tread depth
l) when they
have worn down to the treadwear
indicators. Replace the tires with
new ones
c:> ..1,,. .
Tire rotation
Rotating the tires regularly is rec
ommended to ensure the tires
wear evenly. To rotate the tires, install the tires from the rear axle
on the front axle and vice versa.
This w ill allow the tires to have
approximately the same length of
service life.
