Storage and convenience


— Never drive with containers that contain hot
liquid such as coffee or tea. The hot liquid
could spill and cause burns during a colli-
sion, sudden braking or other vehicle move-
ment. Spilled hot liquid can also increase
the risk of accidents and injuries.
— Only use soft containers in the cup holders.
Hard cups and glasses can increase the risk
of injury during a collision.
— Never use the cup holder or the adapter as
an ashtray because this is a fire hazard.

@) Note
Beverage containers in the cup holders should
always
have a lid. Otherwise, the liquid inside
could spill and cause damage to vehicle
equipment.
Storage areas and
compartments
Depending on vehicle equipment, there are a va-
riety of storage areas, compartments, and retain-
ers, such as the glove compartment, for safely
storing and securing objects.

ZA\ WARNING
—To reduce the risk of injury, make sure all
storage compartments are always closed
while driving.
— Loose objects can be thrown around the ve-
hicle interior during sudden driving or brak-
ing maneuvers, which increases the risk of
an accident. Store objects securely while
driving.
— Only use the storage compartments in the
door trim panels to store small objects that
will not stick out of the compartment and
impair the function of the side airbags.
— Make sure your view toward the rear is not
blocked, for example by hanging clothing or
objects in the vehicle.
— Applies to: Coupe: No heavy or hard objects
may be placed on the storage compartment
behind the rear seat backrest. There is a risk
of
injuring the vehicle passengers when
braking suddenly.

64
— Applies to: Coupe: Only lightweight clothing
should be hung from the garment hooks in
the vehicle. Do not use clothes hangers to
hang clothing. The pockets of the clothing
must not contain any heavy, breakable, or
sharp-edged objects. This could impair the
effectiveness of the side curtain airbags.
() Note
Applies to: Coupe

Make sure that the heating grid strips for the
rear window defogger are not damaged by
abrasive objects.
Luggage compartment
General information
All pieces of luggage or objects must be securely
fastened in the luggage compartment. Note the
following to maintain good vehicle handling:
> Distribute the load evenly in the luggage com-
partment.
> Stow heavy luggage as far forward in the lug-
gage compartment as possible.
» Use non-elastic cords attached to the tie-downs
to secure objects.

ZX WARNING
— Loose objects can be thrown around the ve-
hicle interior during sudden driving or brak-
ing maneuvers, which increases the risk of
an accident. Always stow objects securely in
the luggage compartment and secure them
at the tie-downs. Use straps suitable for
heavy objects.
— If pieces of luggage or objects are secured to
the tie-downs with unsuitable or damaged
straps, this can increase the risk of injury
during braking maneuvers or accidents.
— When transporting heavy objects, the vehi-
cle characteristics will change due to the
shift in the center of gravity, which increases
the risk of an accident. You may need to
adapt your driving style and speed to the
current conditions.

Storage and convenience



— The cargo net is only strong enough to se-
cure light objects. Heavy objects are not ad-
equately secured. Attempting to secure
heavy objects increases the risk of injury.
— Never exceed the permitted axle and load
and vehicle weight > page 264.
— Never secure a child safety seat to the tie-
downs.
— Never leave your vehicle unattended, espe-
cially if the luggage compartment lid is
open. Children could enter the luggage com-
partment and close the luggage compart-
ment lid from the inside. This creates the
risk of fatal injury, since the children would
be locked in and may not be able to escape
by themselves.
— Do not allow children to play in or on the ve-
hicle. Close and lock the luggage compart-
ment lid as well as all other doors when you
leave the vehicle.
— Never transport passengers in the luggage
compartment. Every passenger must be cor-
rectly secured with the safety belts in the
vehicle > page 49.
— Applies to: Coupe: The luggage compart-
ment cover must always be securely fas-
tened when in use to reduce the risk of an
accident.
— Applies to: Coupe: The luggage compart-
ment cover is not a surface for storing ob-
jects. Objects placed on the cover increase
the risk of injury to all vehicle occupants
during sudden driving or braking maneuvers
or in the event of an accident.
— Applies to: Coupe: Be careful when releasing
the backrest and folding it forward. To re-
duce the risk of being pinched, pay attention
and check when folding backrests forward.
— Applies to: Coupe: The backrest must be se-
curely latched so objects cannot slide for-
ward out of the luggage compartment dur-
ing sudden braking.
— Applies to: Coupe: Always pull forward on
the backrest to make sure it is check if it is
correctly locked in place.

CG) Note
Applies to: Coupe
— If you move the front seat back when the
rear seat backrest is folded forward, you
could damage the head restraints on the
rear seat.
— When folding the backrest forward, make
sure the outer safety belts are in the belt
guide recess so that they do not get pinched
in the backrest lock and damaged. Other ob-
jects should be removed from the rear
bench seat to protect the backrest from
damage.
— Make sure that the heating grid strips for
the rear window defogger are not damaged
by abrasive objects.
G) Tips
— The tire pressure must be adapted to the
load > page 224.
— You can purchase suitable straps at special-
ty stores.

Roof rack
(ere eur lela)
Applies to: vehicles with roof rack mount

BFV-0078

Fig. 77 Roof: mounting points
If luggage or cargo is to be carried on the roof,
you must observe the following:
— These roof racks are the basis for a complete
roof rack system. Only roof racks that are suita-
ble for your vehicle may be used. Audi recom-
mends roof racks and attachments from the
Audi Genuine Accessories program.
— Make sure the roof rack is mounted on the vehi-
cle only at the specified locations > fig. 77.
— Note the permitted axle load, permitted total
weight, and permitted roof load of your vehicle
=> page 264. The roof load is the total of the
weight of the roof rack, the attachments and
the cargo you are carrying. However, you must
also note the permitted load of the carrier sys-
tem being used.

AX WARNING
— Follow the installation instructions provided
with the roof rack system. If you do not se-
cure the roof rack system and objects on the
roof correctly, they could come loose from
the vehicle and cause an accident.
— The risk of an accident increases when using
a roof rack system, because it changes the
driving characteristics by shifting the center
of gravity and/or the increasing the surface
area exposed to wind. You may need to
adapt your driving style and speed to the
current conditions.

68
@) Note
Make sure the luggage compartment lid does
not hit the cargo on the roof rack when you
open it.
@) For the sake of the environment
Energy usage will increase because of the in-
creased wind resistance. Remove the roof rack
when you are no longer using it.

Warm and cold

Warm and cold
Climate control system
The climate control system warms, cools, dehu-
midifies, and filters the air in the vehicle interior.
It functions most effectively when the windows
are closed. If there is a build-up of heat inside the
vehicle, ventilation can help to speed up the cool-
ing process.
The deluxe climate control system automatically
maintains a temperature once it has been set. In
all heating mode functions except defrost, the
blower only switches to a higher speed once the
coolant has reached a certain temperature.
Pollutant filter
The pollutant filter removes pollutants such as
dust and pollen from the air.

ZA WARNING
Poor visibility can lead to accidents.
— For safer driving, keep all windows free of
ice, snow and fog.
— Become familiar as quickly as possible with
the correct use and function of the climate
control system, especially with the defrost-
ing and defogging function.
— When the temperature is below freezing,
only use the windshield washer system after
the
windshield has been warmed by the cli-
mate control system. The washer fluid could
freeze on the windshield and impair visibili-
ty.
©) Note
— If you suspect that the climate control sys-
tem is damaged, switch the system off to

prevent further damage and have it checked
by an authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility.
— Repairs to the Audi climate control system
require special technical knowledge and
special tools. Have it inspected by an au-
thorized Audi dealer or a qualified electron-
ics store.
(@) For the sake of the environment
Reducing the amount of fuel used also re-
duces the amount of pollutants that enter the
air.
G) Tips
—To prevent interference with the heating
and cooling output and to reduce the risk of
the windows fogging over, the air intake in
front of the windshield must be free of ice,
snow, or leaves.
— Condensation from the cooling system can
drip and form a puddle of water under the
vehicle. This is normal and does not mean
there is a leak.
— The energy management system may tem-
porarily switch off certain functions, such as
the seat heating* or rear window defogger.
These systems are available again as soon
as the energy supply has been restored.
— The flows through the vents under the rear
window. Make sure the openings are not
covered when placing clothing on the lug-
gage compartment cover.
