Emergency assistance
— When the parking lock is engaged, neither
the front nor rear axle may be lowered or
raised more than 10. The driveshafts or
tires could be seriously damaged.
— Towing must not be used to charge the
high-voltage battery (recuperation), be-
cause this could result in major damages to
the tow vehicle or the vehicle being towed.
— The vehicle must not be tow started for
technical reasons.
G) Tips
— Switch Audi pre sense* off > page 160 when
loading the vehicle onto a vehicle carrier,
train, ship, or other type of transportation,
or when towing the vehicle. This can prevent
an undesired intervention from the pre
sense* system.
— Follow the local legal regulations for tow-
ing.
Read and follow the important information under
=> page 274.
Preparations
> Only secure the towing cable or tow bar at the
designated towing loops > page 275,
=> page 276.
> Make sure the towing cable is not twisted. Oth-
erwise it could disconnect from the towing loop
while towing.
> Switch the emergency flashers on in both
vehicles > page 50. However, do not do this if it
prohibited by law.
Towing vehicle (front)
> Only start to drive when the towing cable is
taut.
> Press the brake pedal very carefully.
> Avoid sudden braking or driving maneuvers.
Vehicle being towed (rear)
> Make sure the ignition is switched on so that
the steering wheel is not locked and so that you
can use the turn signals, the horn, and the
windshield wipers if needed > A\.
> Switching it off before the vehicle has stopped
may impair the function of the brake booster
and power steering. You would then need to
use more force to steer and brake the vehicle.
> Release the parking brake > page 98.
> Select the “N” selector lever position.
>» Switch the ESC off to avoid error messages
=> page 106.
> Make sure the towing cable is always taut.
ZA WARNING
— Never tow a vehicle using a tow bar or tow-
ing cable if the vehicle does not have electri-
cal power.
— If the vehicle runs out of power while it is
being towed, stop towing the vehicle imme-
diately and consult an authorized Audi deal-
er or qualified repair facility.
t towing loop
Fig. 170 Front bumper: installing the towing loop

cated on the right side of the front bumper.
> Remove the towing loop from the vehicle tool
kit > page 267.
> Press the cap inward with brief, strong pressure
=> fig. 170. The cap will loosen from the bump-
er.

the mount. Use a suitable object to tighten the
towing eye completely and securely in the
mount.
» After using, place the towing loop back in the
