Safe driving

•
Distribute the load evenly in the luggage com­
partment.

•
Place heavy items as far forward as possible in
the luggage compartment and secure them
properly
<^>Fig.
214.

•
Secure the load with the stretch net* or with
non-elastic straps secured to the fastening
rings
^>page
62.
© CAUTION
A WARNING
- Loose items in the luggage compartment
are a safety hazard: they can move suddenly
and impair the handling of the vehicLe as a
result of the change in weight distribution.
- In an accident or a sudden manoeuvre, loose
objects in the passenger compartment can
be flung forward - risk of injury! Always
stow objects safely in the luggage compart­
ment and secure them on the fastening

rings.
Use suitable securing straps, particu­
larly when transporting heavy objects.
- Transporting heavy objects may affect the
vehicle's handling by shifting the centre of
gravity - this could cause an accident. Take
extra care when driving and adjust your
speed accordingly.
- Never exceed the maximum axle loads or
the maximum gross weight for the vehicLe

^>page
342. Exceeding the permitted axle
loads or gross weight Limit can affect the ve­
hicle's handling characteristics, and increase
the risk of accidents, personal injuries or
damage to the vehicle.
- Never leave your vehicLe unattended when
the boot lid is open. Children could climb in­
to the boot and close the boot lid from the

inside.
In this case the child would be un­
able to get out of the vehicle without help.
This could have fatal consequences.
- Never allow children to play in or around the
vehicle. Always close and lock the boot lid
and all the doors when you leave the
vehi­

cle.

- Never let passengers ride in the luggage
compartment. All occupants must be prop­
erly restrained by the seat belts at all times

•=>
page
27'5.

Make sure that no hard objects chafe against
the wires of the heating element in the rear
window and damage them.
©
Note

- The tyre pressure must be adjusted accord­
ing to the load the vehicle is carrying

<^>page
307.
- Air circulation in the vehicle helps reduce
fogging of the windows. Used air escapes
through ventilation slots in the rear of the
vehicle. Make sure that these ventilation
slots are not obstructed.
- Suitable belts for securing loads to the fas­
tening rings* are commercially available.
Fastening rings
Unsecured loads are a hazard to all vehicle occu­
pants.
There are fastening rings in the luggage com­
partment which can be used to secure luggage
and other objects
^>page
62.

•
Use the fastening rings to secure items safely
in the luggage compartment
<=> A.

During a collision or an accident, even small and
light objects can possess so much energy that
they can cause very severe injuries. The amount
of this "kinetic energy" depends on the speed of
the vehicLe and the weight of the object. The
most significant factor, however, is the speed of
the vehicLe.
For example: an object weighing 4.5 kg is lying
unsecured in the vehicle. During a frontal
colli­

sion at a speed of 50 km/h, this object generates
a force corresponding to 20 times its weight.
That means that the effective weight of the ob­
ject increases to about 90 kg. You can imagine
the severity of the injuries which might be sus­
tained if this "projectile" strikes an occupant as it
flies through the passenger compartment. •

Checking and topping up fluids
A WARNING
- To avoid the risk of being scalded, never
open the bonnet if
you
see steam or coolant
escaping from the engine compartment.
Wait until no steam or coolant can be seen
before opening the bonnet.
- For safety reasons the bonnet must always
be completely closed when the vehicle is

moving.
After closing it always check that it
is properly secured. It should not be possi­
ble to
lift
the front edges of the bonnet.
Should you notice that the bonnet is not
safely secured when the vehicle is moving,
stop the vehicle immediately and close the
bonnet properly, otherwise it could cause an
accident.

The service interval display in the instrument
cluster of your vehicle will inform you when it is
time for an oil change. We recommend having
the oil changed by
a
qualified workshop. •

Checking and topping up fluids
© CAUTIO
-The anti-freeze concentration must be
matched to the climate of the country in
which you are driving. If the concentration
is too
high,
damage to the car may result.
- Never put in radiator anti-freeze or other
additives.
- Never use washer fluid which contains paint
thinners or solvents as it can damage the
paintwork.
Service interval display

The
service interval display detects when the
next
service
is due
for
your vehicle.
There are two service interval dispLay levels:
- Inspection or oil change reminder: After a cer­
tain mileage, a service reminder will appear in
the instrument cluster dispLay each time the ig­
nition is switched on/off. The distance or time
remaining will be shown briefly.
- Inspection or oil change due: When your
vehi­

cle is due for an inspection, oil change or
both,

the corresponding reminder Inspection
due!,

Oil change due! or Oil change and inspection

due!
will appear briefly after you switch the ig­
nition on/off.
Checking the service intervals
On the infotainment system, you can look up the
distance and time remaining until the next oil
change or next service inspection. Select the
fol­

lowing on the infotainment system:
|MENU|
but­
ton > Car

Service intervals.

Applies
to: vehicles with flexible oil change service
You cannot check the service interval on a new
vehicle until it has been driven for about 500 km.
Qualified workshops reset the service interval af­
ter the oil is changed. The distance to the next oil
change is initially displayed based on the driving
profile prior to the oil change. Your own personal
driving profile is used subsequently to calculate
the remaining distance. Frequent cold starts or
short trips place extra demands on the engine oil
with the result that the oil has to be changed
more often.
Resetting the display
Your qualified workshop resets the service inter­
val display after each service.
It is very important that you reset the oil change
dispLay if
you
change the oil yourself. The
next
oil
change will be due after
a
fixed service interval.
To reset the display, select the following on the
infotainment system:
|MENU|
button > Car
>
left
control button > Servicing & checks
>
Service in­
tervals
>
Reset oil change interval.

(J) CAUTION

- Do not reset the oil change interval display
unless you have changed the oil.
- Keeping to the correct service intervals is
crucial for the operation, service life and re­
sidual value of the vehicle (and especially
for the life of the engine). Services must al­
ways be carried out promptly, even if the
mileage is Low.

Wheels
DOT ...2216...
means, for example, that the tyre was produced
in the 22nd week of 2016.
Audi Genuine Tyres
Audi Genuine Tyres with the marking "AO" are
specially matched to your Audi. When used prop­
erly, these tyres meet the highest standards in
safety and handling. Your specialist retailer will
be glad to provide more information.
Tyre wear / damage

A
WARNING
- Use only tyre/rim combinations and match­
ing wheel bolts approved by Audi. Otherwise
damage to the vehicLe and an accident could
result.
- For technical reasons, it is not possible to
use wheels from other vehicles. In certain
cases, it is not even possible to use wheels
from another vehicle of the same model.
- It is very important to ensure that the tyres
you have chosen have adequate clearance.
When selecting replacement tyres, do not
rely entirely on the nominal tyre size
marked on the tyre; with some makes of
tyre the effective tyre size can differ signifi­
cantly from the nominal dimensions, even
though the tyres have the same size desig­

nation.
Inadequate tyre clearance can result
in damage to the tyres or the vehicle, caus­
ing a serious safety risk.
- Avoid running the car on tyres that are more
than 6 years old. If
you
have no alternative,
you should drive slowly and with extra care
at all times.
- The use of run-flat tyres on your vehicle is
NOT authorised! Unauthorised use can cause
an accident or damage your vehicLe.
- If wheel trims are fitted after the car is pur­

chased,
ensure that there is an adequate
flow of air for cooling the brakes - risk of ac­
cident!

Fig.
252 Tyre tread: Tread wear indicators
Tyre wear
Inspect the tyres regularly for damage.
- The wear on under or over-inflated tyres is
sig­

nificantly higher.
- Fast cornering, heavy acceleration and hard
braking all increase tyre wear.
- If
you
notice excessive tyre wear, have the
wheel alignment checked by a qualified work­

shop.

- Have your tyres rebalanced if steering wheel vi­
brations indicate an imbalance. Otherwise, the
tyres and other parts of the vehicLe may wear
faster.
Tread wear indicators
The original tyres on your vehicle have 1.6 mm
high tread wear indicators
^>Fig.
252 running
across the tread at regular intervals. The letters

"TWI"
or triangles on the sidewall indicate the
positions of the tread wear indicators.
The minimum tread
depth1)
is reached
at
the lat­
est when the tread is worn down to the tread
wear indicators. Replace the tyres with new ones
Changing wheels round
Wheels should be changed round regularly to en­
sure that the wear is equal on all tyres. Fit the
wheels from the rear axle on the front axle and
vice-versa. All the tyres will then last for about
the same time.

Please observe the applicable regulations in the country in
which you are travelling.
