minute and then stays on, there is system mal-
function. Try to store the correct tire pressures
= page 260. In some cases, you must drive for
several minutes after storing the pressures until
the indicator light turns off. If the indicator light
does turn off or turns on again after a short peri-
od of time, drive to an authorized Audi dealer or
authorized Audi Service Facility immediately to
have the malfunction corrected.
ZA\ WARNING
— If the tire pressure indicator appears in the
display, reduce your speed immediately and
avoid any hard steering or braking maneu-
vers. Stop as soon as possible and check the
tires and their pressure.
— The driver is responsible for maintaining the
correct tire pressure. You must check the
tire pressure regularly.
— Under certain conditions (such as a sporty
driving style, winter conditions, or unpaved
roads), the tire pressure monitoring system
indicator may be delayed.
(i) Tips
— The tire pressure monitoring system can al-
so stop working when there is an ESC mal-
function.
— Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction.
— The tire pressure monitoring system in your
Audi was calibrated with “Audi Original
Tires” > page 248. Audi recommends using
these tires.
Storing tire pressures
Applies to: vehicles with Tire Pressure Monitoring System in-
dicator
If the tire pressure changes or a tire is replaced,
it must be confirmed in the MMI.
> Before storing the tire pressures, make sure the
tire pressures in all four tires meet the speci-
fied values and are adapted to the load
=>page 251.
> Switch the ignition on.
> Applies to MMI: Select on the home screen: VE-
HICLE > Settings & Service > Tire pressure
260
monitoring > Store tire pressure > Yes, store
now.
@) Tips
Do not store the tire pressures if snow chains
are installed.

Data privacy
ae la acta adie
Applies to: vehicles with Audi connect
> Applies to MMI: Select on the home screen:
SETTINGS > Privacy settings.
When using Audi connect services or during data
collection, data will be transmitted from the ve-
hicle.
> To display additional information about the pri-
vacy settings and the associated symbols in the
status bar, press @ in the MMI.
Requirement: the ignition must be switched on.
Setting the maximum privacy settings
When the Activate privacy mode function is
switched on, the data connection is deactivated
or sending of data is restricted, but all safety-re-
lated, legal, or contractually required Audi con-
nect services remain activated. The majority of
the Audi connect services are deactivated.
When the function is switched off, the data con-
nection will be available in order to use Audi con-
nect services.
Adjusting individual privacy settings
In the MMI, you can adjust individually which da-
ta should be transmitted from the vehicle. If you
switch on a data category, the data will be trans-
mitted.
You can also deactivate individual services for
your vehicle at my.audi.com if you are logged into
the vehicle as the key user > page 29. These de-
activated services will not be available in the ve-
hicle. For additional information, visit my.audi.

You are responsible for all precautions taken
for data protection, anti-virus protection, and
protection against loss of data on mobile de-
vices that are used to access the Internet
through the Wi-Fi hotspot.
D In certain countries.
@) Tips
— The following interfaces are not affected by
changes to the privacy settings: Bluetooth,
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), Wi-Fi, Audi
smartphone interface (ASI), Near Field
Communication (NFC), charging communi-
cation (high-voltage system), Electronic Toll
Collect (ETC), On-Board Diagnostic System

— If the maximum privacy settings are switch-
ed on, your vehicle may not receive security
updates and certificates for establishing an
encrypted connection, depending on vehicle
equipment. In order to receive security up-
dates and certificates, switch the maximum
privacy settings off for at least ten minutes
every six months. Make sure that your vehi-
cle is connected to the Internet. A symbol in
the MMI status bar indicates if the required
data connection is available > page 20.
— If the transmission of data is limited, it will
have the following effects on the exchange
of data for Audi connect services and emer-
gency calls, if equipped:
— The emergency call function will remain
available without restrictions and will con-
tinue
to transmit data.
— If an online roadside assistance call is ini-
tiated, no data will be transmitted, but a
call will be made.
— If the Geofencing Alert, Speed Alert,
and/or Valet Alert services have been acti-
vated by the key user, then they will re-
main available without restrictions and
continue to transmit data.
— Stored destinations (favorites, last desti-
nations) are only stored in the vehicle. If
you allow transmission of data again,
these destinations will be synchronized via
the myAudi account. To prevent synchroni-
zation of destinations, delete the destina-
tions before you allow data to be trans-
mitted again.

Accessories and technical changes
Technical Modifications
Interference with electronic components, their
software, the wiring, and data transfer may cause
malfunctions. Because of the way electronic com-
ponents are interconnected, such malfunctions
can also impair systems that are not directly in-
volved. This means that you risk both a substan-
tial reduction in the operational safety of your ve-
hicle and increased wear of vehicle components.
Some convenience functions, such as the conven-
ience turn signal function, individual door open-
ing function, and displays, can be reprogrammed
using special workshop equipment. If functions
are reprogrammed, the information and descrip-
tions about these functions in this Owner's Man-
ual may no longer apply to the changed func-
tions. Audi recommends that an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility perform
and verify any reprogramming procedures.
Z\ WARNING
Maintenance work, repairs, or technical modi-
fications to the vehicle (such as installing ad-
ditional equipment) that is not performed
correctly can cause serious injuries and in-
crease the risk of an accident.
ZA WARNING
The motor compartment in any motor vehicle
is a potentially dangerous area and can cause
serious personal injury.
— Always use extreme caution when doing any
work in the motor compartment. Always fol-
low commonly accepted safety practices and
use common sense. Never risk personal in-
jury.
— Never perform any work in the motor com-
partment unless you know exactly how to
carry out the job and have the correct tech-
nical information and the correct tools.
— If you are uncertain about what to do, have
the work performed by an authorized Audi
dealer, an authorized Audi Service Facility,
or another qualified workshop. Serious per-
sonal injury may result from improperly per-
formed work.
286
@) Note
— Maintenance work, repairs, or technical
modifications to the vehicle (such as instal-
ling additional equipment) that is not per-
formed correctly can cause vehicle damage.
— If emergency repairs must be performed,
take your vehicle to an authorized Audi deal-
er or authorized Audi Service Facility as soon
as possible.
— Audi is not liable for damage to the vehicle
resulting from failure to comply with these
guidelines.
@) For the sake of the environment
— Regular maintenance can help protect the
environment.
— Technical modifications to the vehicle may
have a negative affect on energy use.
@) For the sake of the environment
Certain components in your vehicle such as
undeployed airbag modules, pretensioners
and remote control batteries may contain Per-
chlorate Material - special handling may ap-
ply, See www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/
perchlorate. When the vehicle or parts of the
restraint system including airbag modules
and safety belts with pretensioners are scrap-
ped, all applicable laws and regulations must
be observed. Your authorized Audi dealer is
familiar with these requirements and we rec-
ommend that you have your dealer perform
this service for you.
(i) Tips
Because of your vehicle's aluminum body de-
sign, all service and repair procedures affect-
ing the body should be performed by an au-
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Serv-
ice Facility, who will perform the work accord-
ing to Audi factory specifications. Only Audi
Genuine Parts are used when Audi experts
perform repair or service procedures. Failure
to use Audi Genuine Parts or Audi Genuine Ac-
cessories or performing repairs incorrectly
may result in severe vehicle damage, such as
corrosion.
