Driver assist systems
which mode you select. In the performance-
oriented dynamic mode, the automatic gearbox
changes gear at higher engine speeds.
By contrast, in efficiency* mode, the automatic
gearbox* selects the next gear at lower engine
speeds and the coasting mode is activated
^>page
91. This helps to reduce fuel consump
tion.
Suspension control (Audi magnetic
ride)*
The suspension control uses sensors to collect in
formation on steering movements, braking and
acceleration input by the driver, road surface
quality, road speed and vehicle Loading. With
Audi drive select you can choose between dynam
ic and comfort-oriented suspension set-ups (dy
namic and comfort modes), or opt for
a
more
balanced set-up (auto mode).
Steering
The degree of power assistance can be varied.
Various modes are possible
^>page
133. The
light, indirect steering response in comfort mode
is particularly suitable on long motorway trips,
for instance. The steering has a tighter, more di
rect feel in dynamic mode.
The steering response is even more agile on
vehicles with progressive steering*.
Audi adaptive light*
The adaptive light system adjusts the light distri
bution according to the mode selected.
Air conditioner*
The air conditioner runs in a particularly econom
ical mode when the efficiency* setting is selec
ted.
When this function is selected, eco* is shown
in the display of the automatic air conditioner.
Cruise control system*
The acceleration response is particularly econom
ical in efficiency* mode.
Audi adaptive cruise control*
The acceleration mode can be varied from com
fort to sport by changing the setting in drive se
lect. The setting also determines whether the re
sponse of the adaptive cruise control to the driv
ing style of the driver in front is more balanced or
spontaneous. The efficiency* mode chooses a set
up for maximum economy.
© Note
- On some models the vehicle's maximum
speed can only be obtained in the auto and
dynamic modes.
- Applies to vehicles with manual gearbox: An
E appears in the gear-change indicator when
efficiency* mode is activated.
- Applies to vehicles with automatic gearbox:
Selector lever position
S
is automatically se
lected when dynamic mode is activated.
E
is
selected in efficiency* mode.
- Applies to vehicles with automatic gearbox:
If
you
select efficiency* mode when the se
lector Lever is in position D,
E
will automati
cally appear in the instrument cluster dis
play.
- Applies to vehicles with manual gearbox: If
you press the accelerator right down past
the point of resistance in efficiency* mode,
the engine power is automatically control
led to give your vehicle maximum accelera
tion.
- Please note that the efficiency* mode is not
available in towing mode.
Selecting the driving mode
Applies to: vehicles with Audi drive select
You
can choose between efficiency*, comfort, au
to,
dynamic and individual*.

Accessories,
replacement parts
and
repairs
Always
ask
your dealer
or
specialist retailer
for
advice before purchasing accessories
and
re
placement parts.
Your
car is
designed
to
offer
a
high standard
of
active and passive safety. For this reason,
we
rec
ommend that you ask your Audi dealer
for
advice
before fitting accessories
or
replacement parts.
Audi dealers have
the
latest information from
the manufacturer and
can
recommend accesso
ries and replacement parts which
are
suitable
for
your requirements. They can also answer
any
questions you might have regarding official
regu
lations.
We recommend you
to
use only Audi accessories
and Audi Genuine Parts. Audi has tested these
products
for
suitability, reliability and safety.
Audi dealers have
the
necessary experience
and
facilities
to
ensure that
the
parts
are
installed
properly.
Although
the
market
is
constantly scrutinised,
Audi
cannot
judge
or
assume responsibility
for
the reliability, safety and suitability
of
non-genu
ine products
-
even though
in
some instances,
these parts
may
have been approved
by
an
offi
cially recognised technical testing authority
or
accompanied
by
an official approval certificate.
Any retro-fitted equipment which has a direct
ef
fect on
the
vehicle and/or
the
way
it is
driven
(e.g.
cruise control system
or
electronically-con
trolled suspension) must
be
approved
for
use
in
your vehicle and bear
the e
mark
(the
European
Union's approval symbol).
If any additional electrical components are fit
ted which
do not
serve
to
controL
the
vehicLe
it
self
(for
instance a refrigerator box, laptop
or
ventilator
fan,
etc.), these must bear the C€ mark
(manufacturer conformity declaration
in the Eu
ropean Union).
A,
WARNING
Never attach accessories (such
as cup
holders
or telephone brackets)
to the
surfaces cover
ing
the
airbag units
or the
areas around
the
airbags: this could cause injury
if
the airbag
is
triggered.
Modifications
Modifications must always
be
carried
out
accord
ing
to our
specifications.
Unauthorised modifications
to the
electronic
components, software, wiring
or
data transfer
in
the vehicLe may cause malfunctioning. Due
to the
way
the
electronic components
are
linked togeth
er
in
networks, other systems
may be
affected
by
the faults. This can seriously impair safety, lead
to excessive wear
of
components,
and
also inva
lidate
the
type approval
for
your vehicle.
You will appreciate that your Audi dealer cannot
be held liable
for
any damage caused
by
modifi
cations and/or work performed incorrectly.
We recommend that
all
work should
be
per
formed
by
an Audi workshop using Audi Genuine
Parts.
/K
WARNING
- Incorrectly performed modifications
or
oth
er work
on
your vehicLe can lead
to
malfunc
tions and cause accidents.

Do not
use an additional
or
replacement
number plate holder other than
the
original
one fitted
at the
front
of
the vehicle.
Radio transmitters

Transmitters
An external aerial
is
required
in
order
to
operate
radio equipment inside
the

mum range
of
the equipment can only
be
