To reduce the risk of lime scale deposits on the
spray nozzles, use clean water with low amounts
of calcium. Always add window cleaner to the wa-
ter. When the outside temperatures are cold, an
anti-freezing agent should be added to the water
so that it does not freeze.
Message
3 Please add washer fluid
Fill the washer fluid for the windshield washer
system and the headlight washer system* when
the ignition is switched off.
() Note
—The concentration of anti-freezing agent
must be adjusted to the vehicle operating
conditions and the climate. A concentration
that is too high can lead to vehicle damage.
— Never add radiator anti-freeze or other addi-
tives to the washer fluid.
— Do not use a glass cleaner that contains
paint solvents, because this could damage
the paint.
Service interval display
The service interval display detects when your ve-
hicle is due for service.
The service interval display works in two stages:
— Inspection reminder: after driving a certain
distance, a message appears in the instrument
cluster display each time the ignition is switch-
ed on or off. The remaining distance or time is
displayed briefly.
— Inspection due: if your vehicle has reached an
inspection interval, the message Inspection
due! appears briefly after the ignition is switch-
ed on and off.
Checking service intervals
You can check the remaining distance or time un-
til the next service.

Emergency assistance

@) Note
The compressor must be switched off after six
minutes at the most to reduce the risk of
overheating. Let the compressor cool down
for several minutes before using it again.
G) Tips
The ESC must not be limited or switched off
when driving with the collapsible spare tire
=>page 105.
Jump starting
The vehicle cannot be operated when the 12 Volt
vehicle battery is drained. Your vehicle must not
be jump started in this case. Contact an author-
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili-
ty.
@) Note
The vehicle battery must not be bridged using
conventional jump start methods.
— You may neither give nor receive a jump
start. Otherwise, the electronic systems in
the vehicle may be severely damaged.
— The jump start pins in the motor compart-
ment are designed specifically for qualified
technicians.
Towing
General information
You should only perform the steps that follow if
you have the necessary tools and technical ex-
pertise.
Towing requires a certain amount of practice.
Audi recommends contacting a towing company
to have the vehicle transported.
You should only have your vehicle towed by an-
other vehicle when disabled in exceptional cir-
cumstances. Inexperienced drivers should not
tow.
Notes on towing
— The maximum permitted towing speed is 30
mph (50 km/h).
— The maximum permitted towing distance is 30
miles (50 km).
Additional information on towing with a tow
truck
The vehicle may only be towed with the front axle
raised. Do not wrap any chains or cables around
the brake lines.
Tow bar and towing cable
The vehicle can be towed with a tow bar or tow-
ing cable. Both drivers should be familiar with
the special considerations when towing, especial-
ly when using a towing cable.
Always make sure the traction force does not ex-
ceed the permitted level and there are no shock
loading conditions. There is always the risk of the
coupling becoming overloaded when driving off-
road.
For the most safety and security, drive with a tow
bar. You should use a towing cable only if a tow
bar is not available. Use a towing cable made of
synthetic elastic cable similar elastic material.

Z\ WARNING
— Towing highly increases the risk of an acci-
dent, for example from colliding with the
towing vehicle.
—To reduce the risk of an accident, do not al-
low anyone to remain inside the vehicle
when it is being transported by a tow truck
or a special transporter.

® Note
—Ifthe /E| indicator light turns on, there is a
fault in the cooling circuit. The vehicle must
not be towed. The drive system can be se-
verely damaged.
— If normal towing is not possible, for exam-
ple if the transmission is faulty or if the
towing distance is greater than 30 miles
(50 km), then transport the vehicle on a
special carrier.
— If the vehicle is towed by a tow truck at the
axle that is not permitted, this can cause se-
vere damage to the transmission.
