or wet, the kick-down feature could cause the
driven wheels to
spin,
which could result in

skidding.

Coasting mode
Applies to: vehicles with S tronic gearbox and coasting mode
In coasting
mode1)
you can use the vehicle's mo­
mentum to freewheel, for instance when ap­
proaching a speed restriction in a built-up area.
The engine is disengaged from the gearbox. This
allows you to save fuel by anticipating the traffic
situation ahead.

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

cy numbers manually!
- Switch off your mobile phones in all areas
where there may be a risk of explosion. Re­
member that these areas may not always be
adequately marked. Such places are filling
stations, fuel and chemical storage facilities
or transport vehicles and other places where
fumes, chemicals (e.g. from leaking
pro­

pane or fuel vapours in vehicles or build­
ings) or large quantities of dust particles

(e.g.
from flour, wood or metal) could accu­
mulate in the air. This warning also applies
to all other places where you would normal­
ly switch off your engine.
- Today's driving conditions require the full
attention of drivers. Please always note the
information in the chapter

Telephone
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with telephone
You have different options for making calls in
your vehicle via the MMI; this depends on your
vehicle's equipment and the features of your mo­
bile phone.
Handsfree operation
After connecting your mobile phone to the MMI
system via Bluetooth, you can operate the hands-
free system and the telephone functions conven­
iently via the MMI. Your phone calls will be made
via the antenna of your mobile phone.
With the Audi phone box*, you can use the
vehi­

cle's external aerial to make calls. The use of the
external aerial reduces radiation in the vehicle
and also ensures better reception quality

^>page
177.
Car
phone#1)

As part of Audi connect (infotainment)*, the Audi
phone box* includes a car telephone function
which can be used via a separate mini SIM card in
the SIM card reader* or an
rSAP-enabled
mobile

phone.
With the car telephone function, you can
use the vehicle's external aerial to make calls.
The use of the external aerial reduces radiation in
the vehicle and also ensures better reception
quality
^>page
177.
Once a connection has been established success­
fully, you can also change the profiles at a later

time.
Refer to
^>page
257, Connection manag­
er.

WARNING
-According to health organisations, mobile
phones may interfere with the function of
pacemakers. A minimum distance of 20 cm
should be kept between the mobile phone
aerial and the pacemaker.
Not available in all markets. On vehicles with Audi connect
(infotainment)* and Audi phone

Fuel
Petrol grade
Applies to: vehicles with petrol engine

The
correct grade of petrol is listed inside the
fuel tank flap.
The vehicle is equipped with a catalytic converter
and must only be run on unleaded petrol. Petrol
must be sulphur-free and must comply with the
EN 228 standard. You can fuel your vehicle with
fuels containing a maximum of 10%
ethanol

(E10). The petrol grades have different octane
ratings (RON).
The following headings relate to the sticker on
the inside of your vehicle's tank flap:
Unleaded fuel only RON/ROZ
95
Super,
Premium or
min.
RON/ROZ 91 Normal
The use of premium petrol (95 RON) is recom­

mended.
If
that
type of fuel is not available,
reg­

ular petrol (RON 91) can be used with a slight
loss of power.
Unleaded fuel only, min. RON/ROZ
95

Super, Premium
Premium petrol (at least 95 RON) must be used.
If premium petrol is not available, the engine can
be run on regular petrol with 91 RON as an
emer­

gency measure. In this case only use moderate
engine speeds and a light throttle. Fill up with
premium or Super Plus petrol as soon as possi­

ble.

Unleaded fuel only RON/ROZ 98 Super Plus
or min. RON/ROZ 95 Super, Premium
The use of Super Plus petrol (98 RON) is recom­

mended.
If
that
type of fuel is not available, pre­
mium petrol (RON 95) can be used with a slight
loss of power.
If premium petrol is not available, the engine can
be run on regular petrol with 91 RON as an
emer­

gency measure. In this case only use moderate
engine speeds and a light throttle. Fill up with
premium or Super Plus petrol as soon as possi­

ble.

© CAUTION
- Do
NOT fuel
your vehicle with
high-ethanol

fuel blends (e.g. E50 or E85). This will dam­
age the fuel system.
- just one tank of leaded fuel or fuel with
metallic additives will permanently impair
the efficiency of the catalytic converter.
- You should use only petrol additives which
have been approved by Audi. Additives with
so-called octane boosters or antiknock
addi­

tives can contain metallic additives that
cause significant damage to the engine and
the catalytic converter. Do not use such ad­
ditives.
- Metal-based fuels, which can be identified
from the marking on the fuel dispenser,
must not be used. LRP fuel (lead replace­
ment petrol) also contains high concentra­
tions of metallic additive. Risk of engine
damage!
- High engine speed and full throttle can
damage the engine when using petrol with
an octane rating lower than the correct
grade for the engine.
- You can use higher octane fuel than your en­
gine requires.
- In countries where sulphur-free fuel is not
available, you may use low-sulphur fuel in­

stead.

Diesel fuel
Applies to: vehicles with diesel engine
Please note the information on the inside of the
fuel tank flap.
The use of sulphur-free diesel complying with
the EN 590 standard is recommended.
Diesel can thicken at very low temperatures,
which can result in problems starting the engine
or prevent the engine from running smoothly.
For this reason, filling stations in some countries
offer winter-grade diesel fuel during the cold
289
