faster than 85 mph (140 km/h). Drive immedi-
ately to an authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility to have the malfunction re-
paired. The color of the indicator light depends
on the vehicle speed.

ZA WARNING
Driving at higher speeds without the rear
spoiler deployed can impair handling charac-
teristics, making the vehicle harder to control.
— Always make sure that the spoiler is de-
ployed when driving at speeds over 85 mph
(140 km/h). If the rear spoiler warning/indi-
cator light in the instrument cluster comes
on, the rear spoiler may not have deployed.
— Never drive at speeds higher than 85 mph
(140 km/h) if the spoiler is not deployed.
Have the spoiler inspected as soon as possi-
ble by an authorized Audi dealer or qualified
workshop.
— Always obey speed limits and other traffic
laws.
— Hot air from the engine compartment can
escape through the rear spoiler when it is
open and it could burn you.

ZA\ WARNING
Improper operation of the rear spoiler can
cause crushing injuries.
— Always make sure that nobody, especially
children, is in the way when the rear spoiler
is deployed or retracted.

©) Note
— Never push on the vehicle on the rear spoil-
er. This could cause damage.
— To prevent damage to the rear spoiler do
not lean or place anything on it.
—To reduce the risk of damage, only operate
the rear spoiler manually when the engine
compartment lid is closed and the moving
parts for the rear spoiler are not blocked.
G@) Tips
Clean the rear spoiler compartment every 2 to
3 months. To function correctly, the rear
spoiler must be free of ice, snow and leaves.
Energy management
Your vehicle is equipped with an intelligent ener-
gy management system for distributing electrici-
ty. This significantly improves the starting ability
and increases the vehicle battery life.
(i) Tips
— If you drive short distances frequently, the
vehicle battery may not charge enough
while driving. As a result, convenience func-
tions for electrical equipment may be tem-
porarily unavailable.
— The vehicle battery will gradually drain if
the vehicle is not driven for long periods of
time, or if electrical equipment is used
when the engine is not running. To ensure
that the vehicle can still be started, the
electrical equipment will be limited or
switched off.
Notice about data
recorded by the Event
Data Recorder and
vehicle control modules
Event Data Recorder
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Re-
corder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near crash-like situa-
tions, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist in understand-
ing how a vehicle's systems performed. The EDR
is designed to record data related to vehicle dy-
namics and safety systems for a short period of
time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this
vehicle is designed to record such data as:
— How various systems in your vehicle were oper-
ating;
— Whether or not the driver and passenger safety
belts were buckled/fastened;
— How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the
accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
— How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understand-
ing of the circumstances in which crashes and
91

injuries occur. NOTE: EDR data are recorded by
your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation
occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under
normal driving conditions and no personal data
(e.g., name, gender, age, and crash location) are
recorded. However, other parties, such as law en-
forcement, could combine the EDR data with the
type of personally identifying data routinely ac-
quired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equip-
ment is required, and access to the vehicle or the
EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manu-
facturer, other parties, such as law enforcement,
that have the special equipment, can read the in-
formation if they have access to the vehicle or the
EDR.
Some state laws restrict the retrieval or down-
loading of data stored by EDRs installed in a vehi-
cle for the express purpose of retrieving data af-
ter an accident or crash event without the own-
er's consent.
Audi will not access the EDR and/or similar data
or give it to others -
— unless the vehicle owner (or lessee if the vehi-
cle has been leased) agrees; or
— upon the official request by the police; or
— upon the order of a court of law or a govern-
ment agency; or
— for the defense of a lawsuit through the judicial
discovery process.
— Audi may also use the data for research about
vehicle operation and safety performance or
provide the data to a third party for research
purposes without identifying the specific vehi-
cle or information about the identity of its own-
er or lessee and only after the recorded vehicle
data has been accessed.
Vehicle control modules
Your vehicle is also equipped with a number of
electronic control modules for various vehicle
systems, such as engine management, emission
control, airbags, and safety belts.
These electronic control modules record data
during normal vehicle operation that may be
needed by trained technicians for diagnostic and
92
repair purposes. The recording capability of these
modules is limited to data (no sound is recorded).
Only a small amount of data is actually recorded
over a very limited period of time, or stored when
a system fault is detected by a control module.
Some of the data stored may relate to vehicle
speed, direction, or braking, as well as restraint
system use and performance in the event of a
crash. Stored data can also only be read and
downloaded with special equipment that is di-
rectly connected to the vehicle.
@ Tips
Your vehicle may be equipped with Audi con-
nect. Your use of certain Audi connect fea-
tures requires wireless services that are pro-
vided by a third party wireless telecommuni-
cations provider. For details regarding how in-
formation obtained through Audi connect is
collected, processed, transmitted, used, and
shared, please see your contract with the
wireless telecommunications provider.

Introduction
To make phone calls in your vehicle using the
MMI, connect your cell phone to the MMI via
Bluetooth.
Handsfree
After you have connected your mobile device to
the MMI via Bluetooth, you can use the handsfree
system and operate telephone functions through
your MMI. You can make calls using the antenna
on your mobile device.

ZA\ WARNING
— Medical experts warn that mobile devices
can interfere with the function of pacemak-
ers. Always maintain a minimum distance of
about 7.9 inches (20 cm) between the mo-
bile device antennas and the pacemaker.
— Do not carry the mobile device in a pocket
directly over the pacemaker when the
phone is switched on.
— Switch the mobile device off immediately
if you suspect it may be interfering with
the pacemaker.
— Do not use the voice recognition system
=> page 104 in emergencies because your
voice may change in stressful situations. The
system may take longer to dial the number
or may not be able to dial it at all. Dial the
emergency number manually.
— Switch your mobile device off in areas where
there is a risk of an explosion. These loca-
tions are not always clearly marked. This
may include gas stations, fuel and chemical
storage facilities or transport vehicles, or lo-
cations where fuel vapors (such as propane
or gasoline vapor in vehicles or buildings),
chemicals or large quantities of dust parti-
cles (such as flour, sawdust or metal) may
be present in the air. This also applies to all
other locations where you would normally
turn your vehicle engine off.
— The demands of traffic require your full at-
tention. Always read the chapter > page 93,
Traffic safety information.
