engine AUDI ALLROAD 2000 Owners Manual

•
The deflated full size spare tire cannot be
repaired or mounted using conventional
shop equipment. This work always has to
be performed by the man ufacturer of the
collapsible tire.
• All the air must be let out of the tire after
use before stowing it in the storage area
prov ided for it in the vehicle. Once all the air
is out, the tire will return to its original form.
To let the air out of the tire, either use a
sharp object to press down on the metal pin
in the valve, or use the valve-remo ving tool
on the back side of the dust cap to unscrew
the valve stem. Changing
a wheel
�W ARNING
You or your passengers could be
injured while changing a wheel if
you do not follow safety precau­
tions:
• If you have a flat tire, move a
safe distance off the road. Turn off
the engine, turn the emergency
flasher on and use other warning
devices to alert other motorists.
• Passengers must not rema in in
the vehicle when it is jacked up.
This includes children as well as
adults.
• Make sure that passengers wait
in a safe place away from the ve­
hicle and well away from the road­
way and traffic.
• Before you change a wheel, be
sure the ground is level and firm.
If necessary, use a sturdy board
under the jack. DO-IT-YOURSELF

�� WARN ING continued
• After installing the spare wheel,
make sure that you remount the
flat tire/Wheel in its storage area
properly and tighten the plastic
knurled screw securely.
• To help prevent the vehicle from
moving suddenly and possibly
slipping off the jack, always fully
set the parking brake and block
the wheel diagonally opposite the
wheel being changed. When one
front wheel is lifted off the
ground, placing the automatic
transmission in P (Park) will not
prevent vehicle movement.

Replacing bulbs
It is becoming increasingly more and more
difficult to replace vehicle light bulbs since
in many cases, other parts of the car must
first be removed before you are able to get
to the bulb. This applies especially to the
light bulbs in the front of your car which you
can only reach through the engine compart­
ment.
For your safety, we recommend that you
have your authorized Audi Dealer replace
any bulbs for you, since your dealer has nec­
essary tools, the correct bulbs and the ex­
pertise.
g Always heed all WARNINGS
� on page 232. Gas
discharge lamps
(Xenon lights)•
Yo ur vehicle may be equipped with gas dis­
charge lamps. Due to the high elec trical
voltage, have the bulbs exchanged by a
qualified technician.
Headlights with xenon light are identified by
the high voltage sticker(see symbol above).
� WARNING
Only your authorized Audi Dealer
or a qualified workshop should
change the bulbs in gas discharge
lamps (xenon light). Due to the
high voltage, improper handling
can cause serious personal injury. Insta

replacing a radio
f you wish to install a radio or replace the
factory installed radio, please note the fol­
lowing:
• The factory installed radio connectors are
designed for Genuine Audi Radios.
When installing a different radio, difficulties
could arise such as:
- the radio may not fit into the space pro­
vided
- the electrical connections may not be
compat ible
- different connector terminals may be
needed.
• Therefore, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi Dealer install or re­
place the radiO.
They are the most familiar with the techni­
cal features of your vehicle. They also offer
Genuine Audi Radios with the necessary
installation components and instructions.
� WARNING
Improperly installing a radio could
cause a short circuit.
This could result in an electrical
fire.

Lifting
vehicle
Lifting with workshop hoist
and with floor jack
Notes
• The vehicle should never be lifted
or jacked up from underneath the
engine oil pan, the transmission
housing, the front or rear axle or the
body side members. This could lead
to serious damage.
The same lifting points as illus trated on the
next page for the hoist also apply when a
floor jack is used.
e To avoid damage to the under­
body or chassis frame, it is neces­
sary to insert a rubber pad between
the floor jack and the lift points.
• To prevent damaging the shock
absorbers when lifting the vehicle
with a jack or on a hoist, the level
selection must be in the jack mode.
See next page. �W
ARNING
• To reduce the risk of serious in­
jury and vehicle damage, lift the
vehicle only at the special work­
shop hoist and floor jack lift points
illus trated. Failure to lift the ve­
hicle at these points could cause
the vehicle to tilt or fall from a lift
if there is a change in vehicle
weight distribution and balance.
This might happen, for example,
when heavy components such as
the engine block or transmission
are removed.
• When removing such heavy
components, anchor vehicle to
hoist or add correspo nding
weights to maintain the center of
gravity. Otherwise, the vehicle
might tilt or slip oH the hoist,
causing serious damage or person­
al injur y. DO-IT-YOU
RSELF SERVICE
�� WARNING continued
• If you must lift your vehicle with
a floor jack to work underneath,
be sure the vehicle is safely sup­
ported on stands intended for this
purpose.
• Before driving over a workshop
hoist, check that the vehicle weight
does not exceed the permissible lift­
ing capacity of the hoist.
• Before driving over a workshop
hoist, ensure that there is suHicient
clearance between the hoist and
low parts of the vehicle.
