Grounding instructions
Audi charging systems must be grounded. If it
should malfunction or break down, grounding
provides a path of least resistance for electric
current to reduce the risk of electric shock. Audi
charging systems are equipped with a cord hav-
ing an equipment grounding conductor and a
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an appropriate outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
ZA WARNING
Improper connection of the equipment-
grounding conductor is able to result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified elec-
trician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to
whether the product is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided with the product
— if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper out-
let installed by a qualified electrician.

Requirement: the correct power plug must be in-
stalled > page 124.
— Insert the plug into the socket.
— Plug the vehicle charging connector into the ve-
hicle charging port.
— The charging process e will start automatically.
— Once the charging process has completed, un-
lock the vehicle and remove the vehicle charg-
ing connector from the vehicle charging port.
Adjusting the charging power level
The control unit automatically recognizes the
voltage and the available current strength. You
can set whether you would like to charge with full
or reduced charging power. The last setting that
was selected will be saved and used again the
next time the vehicle is charged. If multiple
items are connected to the power circuit, the
charging current may be reduced when charging
Control unit: status and malfunction indicators
at a power outlet. This can help to prevent the
electrical equipment from overheating.
The vehicle has a minimum battery charging ca-
pacity of 880 W. Therefore, if the network volt-
age is less than 200 V, charging using a house-
hold socket will only be possible if the charging
power level is set to 100%. Otherwise, the charg-
ing process will not start.
Before charging, always check if the charging
power setting that was selected last is still suita-
ble.

the ® button © ® fig. 87 for at least two sec-
onds.

Emergency assistance
ZA\ WARNING
— Please note that the tire mobility kit cannot
be used in all situations, and that it may on-
ly be used temporarily.
— The tire sealant must not come in contact
with skin, eyes, or clothing.
— If tire sealant comes into contact with your
eyes or your skin, thoroughly rinse the af-
fected area immediately with clean water.
— Do not inhale the fumes.
— If you swallow any of the tire sealant, thor-
oughly rinse your mouth immediately and
drink a lot of water. Do not induce vomiting.
Seek medical attention immediately.
— Change your clothing immediately if it
comes into contact with tire sealant.
— If an allergic reaction occurs, seek medical
attention immediately.
— Keep the tire sealant away from children.
@ Tips
— If sealant leaks, allow it to dry in place. You
can then peel it off like a sticker.
— Note the expiration date on the sealant bot-
tle. Replace the tire sealant at an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Fa-
cility.
— Radio reception can be interrupted when
operating the compressor.
— Follow the legal regulations that are appli-
cable in the country where you are operating
the vehicle.
2) The compressor may look different. However, the way it is
operated is generally the same.
