•• Drive system: system fault! Safely park
vehicle
There is a malfunction in the plug-in hybrid sys­
tem. The brake booster and the power steering
may stop working. Stop the vehicle immediately
or as soon as possible. Park the vehicle in a safe place outdoors that is not near buildings, roof
overhangs, carports or similar structures. Switch
the ignition off. Have the problem corrected by
an authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility.
•• Electric drive: overheated! Safely stop
vehicle and check coolant
The coolant level is too low or the coolant tem­
perature is too high.
Stop the vehicle in the outdoors as soon as it is
safely possible. Switch the ignition off.
Read the important safety
precautions ¢.& in
Coolant on page 103
and check the coolant level
¢page 102.
If the coolant level is OK, the malfunction may be
caused by the system overheating. Let the vehi­
cle's electric drive system cool down for some
time .
If the message turns off after cooling down and
switching the ignition back on, you can continue
driving. Contact an authorized Audi dealer or au­
thorized Audi Service Facility immediately to have
the malfunction corrected.
If the indicator light stays on, contact an author­
ized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facili­
ty.

(D Tips
- Applies to: Battery Hold mode: th e h igh ­
vo ltage battery charge level can sti ll de­
crease depending on the driving behavior.
- If you select the sport driving mode "S"
when in EV mode, the Battery Ho ld mode is
automatically selected.
- If the
14"1 ¢ page 98 button is pressed w hile
in sport driving mode "S", the transmission
switches automatica lly to normal mode "D".
- When temperatures are below approxi ­
mate ly
14 °F ( -10 °C), the vehicle heat out­
put in EV mode is reduced in order to attain
higher ranges. If the windows fog up or a
hig her heat output is desired, switch on the
Hybrid or Battery Hold mode .
Conditions for electric driving
Applies to: vehicles with plug-in hybrid drive
The EV mode ca n only be switched o n if the fol­
l ow ing condit ions are met:
- The charge level of the high-voltage battery
must be sufficient .
- The temperature of the high-voltage battery
must be adequate (outside temperatures not
below approx imately
14°F / -10°( and not
above
1 04°F / 40°C)
- The speed must not be h igher than approxi -
mate ly
80 mph (130 km/h) .
- Kick -down must not be activated .
- The sport drive mode "S " must not be selected .
EV mode is switched off if one or more of the
conditions are not met. The gasoline engine wi ll
start automatically. The
l!'§'J indi cator light turns
on as a message in the instrument cluster. The
LED in the

(D Tips
It may be necessary for the gasoline engine to
r u n longer for technical reasons, such as
when condensation accumu lates in the en­
gine. Driving exclusively in electric mode is
not possible in this phase.
Plug-in hybrid functions
Applies to: vehicles with plug-in hybrid drive
The funct ions descr ibed below act ivate automati­
cally depending on the driv ing sty le.
Full-throttle acceleration (boost)
The boost funct ion is act ivated by pressing the
accelerator pedal farther down (kick-down). The
vehicle is powered by both the gasoline engine
and the electric motor when in full accelerat io n.
Boost is only availab le for a sho rt time , because it
uses a large amou nt of energy. Ava ilability de­
pends on the high-voltage battery charge level.
Coasting
The gasoline engine switches off and disengages
at speeds up to approximate ly 112 mph

ed and the "D" position is selected. Driving con­
servative ly like this can reduce fuel consumption .
Energy recovery (recuperation)
When braking, t he e lectr ic moto r will act as a
generato r creat ing elect ric energy that is then
stored in the hig h-voltage battery. This also o c­
curs when the vehicle is coasting or driving down ­
hill .
If the brakes are applied early and evenly, the
electric motor w ill brake the vehicle @
¢
page 95, fig. 98. By doing this, a large amount
of the kinetic energy is recovered and may be
stored as electric energy in the high-voltage bat­
tery . The conventional brakes are also activated
when the brakes are pressed very hard.
The strength of recuperation can depend on the
following factors:
- If you are in tiptronic mode ¢

- I f the sport dr iv ing mode "S" was se lected.
