Spare tire
General information
Applies to: vehicles with space-saving spare tire (compact
spare tire)
Fig. 193 Luggage compartment: spare tire
The spare tire is intended for short-term use only.
Have the damaged tire checked and replaced if
necessary by an authorized Audi dealer or author-
ized Audi Service Facility as soon as possible.
There are some restrictions on the use of the
compact spare tire. The compact spare tire has
been designed specifically for your type of vehi-
cle. Do not replace it with the spare tire from an-
other type of vehicle.

Removing the vehicle jack
> Lift up the cover on the right side of the lug-
gage compartment and remove the vehicle

Snow chains
For technical reasons, the use of snow chains on
the compact spare tire is not permitted.
If you have to drive with snow chains and a front
tire fails, mount the spare tire in place of a rear
tire. Install the snow chains on the rear tire that
you removed, and install that in place of the
front tire that failed.
Z\ WARNING
— After installing a spare tire, the tire pressure
must be checked as soon as possible.
— Do not drive faster than 50 mph (80 km/h)

with more than one compact spare tire.
— Normal summer or winter tires must not be
mounted on the compact spare wheel rim.
