Z\ WARNING
Applies to: vehicles with jack
Improper use of the vehicle jack can cause se-
rious personal injuries.
— Never use the screw driver hex head to tight-
en wheel bolts, since the bolts cannot attain
the necessary tightening torque if you use
the
hex head, potentially causing an acci-
dent.
— The factory-supplied jack is intended only
for your vehicle model. Under no circum-
stances
should it be used to lift heavy
vehicles or other loads; you risk injuring
yourself.
— Never start the engine when the vehicle is
raised, which could cause an accident.
— Support the vehicle securely with appropri-
ate stands if work is to be performed under-
neath the vehicle; otherwise, there is a po-
tential risk for injury.
— Never use the jack supplied with your Audi
on another vehicle, particularly on a heavier
one. The jack is only suitable for use on the
vehicle it came with.
G) Tips
The vehicle jack* does not require any mainte-
nance.

always fully set the parking brake and block
the front and back of the wheel diagonally
opposite the wheel being changed. When
one front wheel is lifted off the ground,
placing the Automatic Transmission in P
