Refu
elling the vehicle
Yo ur vehicle fuel tank has an on-board refu­
elling vapor recovery system. This feature
helps to prevent fuel vapors from escaping
from the tank and polluting the environment
while you refuel your vehicle.
In order to fill your tank properly while pro­
tecting the environment. please follow this
refueling procedure carefully:
• Turn off the engine.
• Remove the fuel filler cap by turning it
slowly counter clockwise allowing fuel
pressure to dissi pate.
• Insert the fuel nozzle from the gasoline
pump into the fuel filler neck as far as it will
go.
Select a medium refuelling rate, when filling
your tank. �W
ARNING
Failure to shut the engine off while
re fueling and I or to insert the
pump nozzle fully into the car's
filler neck could cause fuel over­
flow and fuel spray which can
cause fire or serious injury.
• Stop refueling when the fuel pump shuts
off automatical ly - do not add more fuel or
"top off". dih As soon as the correctly oper­� ated nozzle switches off auto­
matically for the first time, the tank
is full. Do not try to add more fuel,
because fuel may spill out. In addi­
tion, the expansion space in the fuel
tank will be filled -causing the fuel
to overflow when it becomes warm
and pollute the environment.
• After filling your tank, turn the fuel filler
cap clockwise until you hear a definite click.
To avoid fuel spilling or evapor ating from the
fue I tank a I ways close fuel filler cap properly
and completely. VE
HICL E CA RE
Notes
• If you cannot fully insert the pump nozzle,
use another fuel pump or change gas sta­
tions.
• Do not refuel your vehicle with the igni­
tion switched on. The fuel gauge may other­
wise not indicate the exact fuel level after
refu elling.

HICLE CARE
Adding coolant
� WARNING
The cooling system is under pres­
sura and can get very hot. Reduce
the risk of scalding from hot cool­
ant by following these steps.
• Turn off the engine and allow it
to cool down.
• Protect face, hands and arms es­
caping fluid and steam by covering
the cap with a large, thick rag.
• Turn the cap slowly and very
care fully in a counter--clockwise di­
rection while applying light, down­
ward pressure on the top of the
cap.
• To help avoid being burned, do
not spill antifreeze or coolant on
the exhaust system or hot engine
parts. Under some conditions, the
ethylene glycol in engine coolant
can catch fire.
240 If,
in an emergency, only water can be add­
ed, the correct ratio between water and an­
tifreeze (see page 238) must be restored as
soon as possible.
If you have lost a considerable amount of
coolant. then you should add cold antifreeze
and cold water only when the engine is cold.
Do not fill coolant above the "MAX"
mark.
Note
Coolant pollutes the environment
and could cause an engine fire. Ex­
cess coolant will be forced out
through the pressure relief valve in
the cap when the engine becomes
hot. Screw cap
on again tightly.
� WARNING
Antifreeze is poisonous. Always
store antifreeze in its original con­
tainer and well out of the reach of
children. If you drain the coolant,
it must be caught and safely
stored in a proper container
clearly marked "poison ...
<£> Drained coolant should not be
reused. Always dispose of used
coolant observing all env ironmen­
tal regulations.
Always heed all WARNINGS
on page 232.

When disconnecting and
connecting the battery ...
When you disconnect the vehicle battery
please note the following:
- some data stored in the driver informa-
tion system are erased,
- the clock goes out,
- the factory installed radio locks up,
- the Engine management system,
- the one-touch-u p and one-touch-down
functions of the power windows no lon­
ger work,
- all stored seat positions in the memory*
are erased.
Af teryou reconnect the battery, you must
reset the clock. � page 118.
You also have to reset the Engine manage­
ment system -see &#34;Starter Switch &#34;
�pa ge 113.
You also have to reset the one-touch-up and
one-touch�down feature on power win­
dows -see &#34;Power windows &#34;
�p age 71.
248 You
have also reset the seat memory* -see
&#34;Seats&#34;
� page 81.
The radio must be re-coded with the correct
radio code - see your radio Operating In­
structions.
Replacement battery
A replacement battery must have the same
specifications and dimensions as the origi­
nal equipment battery. Specifications are
listed on the battery housing.
When installing the battery, make sure the
ignition and all electrical consumers are
switched off.
r.Gb. Because of the problem of �proper di
sposal of a battery, we
recommend that you have your au­
thorized Audi Dealer change the
battery for you. Batteries contain
sulfuric acid and lead and must al­
ways be disp osed of properly ob­
serving all environmental regula­
tions. Air
cleaner
A dir ty air cleaner element not only reduces
the engine output and increases fuel con­
sumption considerably but can also cause
premature engine wear.
Normally, it is not necessary to service the
air cleaner more often than recommended
in the Maintenance booklet. If the vehicle is
driven on very dusty roads, the air cleaner
must be serviced more frequently, even dai­
ly.
If your air cleaner element must be
changed mora frequently, we rec­
ommend that you have the air clean­
er serviced by your authorized Audi
Dealer or a qualified workshop.
The air cleaner element must never
be cleaned or soaked with gasoline,
cleaning solvents or oil.
g Always heed all WARN INGS

�W ARNING
Yo u or your passengers could be
injured while changing a wheel if
you do not follow safety precau­
tions:
• Jacking at any other place may
damage the vehicle or may result
in personal injuries.
• An unstable surface under the
jack may cause the vehicle to slip
off the jack. Always provide a firm
base for the jack on the ground. If
necessa ry. use a sturdy board un­
der the jack.
• On hard. slippery surface (such
as tiles) use a rubber mat or similar
to prevent the jack from slipping.
270 Step
5
• Turn the handle on the jack until the jack
arm just fits underneath the vehicle.
• Position the jack arm on the lower sill of
the vehicle so that the rib in the recess is
surrounded by the jack claw (A) and the
movable base plate (8) of the jack lies flat on
the floor.
When you straighten the jack, make sure
claw doesn&#39;t slip off the rib. �W
ARNING
o Do not raise the vehicle until
you are sure the jack is securely
engaged.
• Passengers must not rema in in
the vehicle when it is jacked up.
• Make sure that passengers wait
in a safe place away from the ve­
hicle and well away from the road­
way and traffic.
• To raise the vehicle, turn the handle
clockwise. Only raise the vehicle as much
as is needed to change a wheel.

Inflating the deflated full size
spare tire
• Remove the dust cap from the valve (1 l
by unscrewing it.
• Take the pressure compressor hose out
of the case, and screw the coupling nut se­
curely onto the valve.
• Insert the compressor· connector in to
the socket located on the side of the lug­
gage compartment or inset it ino the ciga­
rette lighter socket -see page 181.
272 •
Turn on the compressor. The required tire
pressure wil be reached within a few min­
utes. Use a pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure. Never operate the compressor
for longer than 5 minutes.
Note
Yo u&#39;ll find adhesive labels on the deflated
full size spare tire containing i nstn .1ctions for
using the tire as well as information on the
specified tire pressure.
Step S
• Un screw the pressure hose from the val­
ve and screw the dust cap back on.
• To lower the vehicle, turn the handle
counter-clockwise until the jack is fully re­
leased. Remove jack.
• Then go crosswise from one bolt to
another tightening them firmly.
• If necessary, press the hubcap back onto
the hub of the spare wheel. Step
9
• Slip the plastic cover over the wheel con­
taining the flat tire. Then stow this wheel in
the luggage comopartment and secure it so
that it does not shift.
• Carefully observe the points on
page 288 when using the deflated
full size spare tire.
Notes
• The hex socket in the screwdriver can be
used to make it easier to handle the wheel
bolts. To do this, pull out the revers ible bla-
de. ·
Never use this plastic tool to loosen
or tighten the wheel bolts.
After you change a tire:
• Deactivating the jack moda -see
page 268.
• Use a torque wrench to check the
wheel bolt tightening torque as
soon as possible. With alloy wheels
and a deflated full size spare tire, the
torque should be 88.5 ft-lb (120
Nm).
