D ur ing eme rgency bra king, you r vehicle w ill
brake s imilar to he avy braking. ESC and the
associated components (ABS, AS R, EDL)
cannot overcome the laws of physics.
Around curves and when road or weather
conditions a re bad, a full brake applicat ion
can cause the veh icle to skid or the rear end
to swerve, wh ich increases the risk of an ac­
cide nt.
- If the power supply fails, you cannot set the
parking brake if it is released. In this case,
pa rk the veh icle on leve l ground and secure
it by p lac ing the sele cto r leve r in the P pos i­

Emergency situations
General
This chapter is intended for trained emergency
crews and working personnel who have the nec­
essary tools and equipment to perform these
operations.
Starting by pushing or
towing
~ Note
Vehicles with an automatic transmission can­
not be started by pushing or towing.
Jump starting
Preparation
If needed, the engine can be jump started by an­
other vehicle battery.
Applies to: vehicles with plug-in hybrid drive: the
connection points for the jump start cable are
different
q page 102.
If the engine does not start because the vehicle
battery is drained, you can jump start the engine
using another vehicle battery. You need a jump
start cable to do this.
Both vehicle batteries must have 12 V nominal
voltage . The voltage capacity (Ah) of the vehicle
battery that is giving power must not be less
than the capacity of the drained vehicle battery.
Jump start cable
Only use a jump start cable with a large enough
diameter. Note the manufacturer's specifica­
tions .
Only use a jump start cable with insulated termi­
nal clamps.
Positive cable - usually red .
Negative cable -usually black.
Emergency situations
A WARNING
--
- Applies to: vehicles with plug-in hybrid
drive: you must
not give a jump start with
your vehicle . This could cause significant
damage to the electrical system in your ve­
hicle
Q page 102.
-A drained vehicle battery can freeze at tem­
peratures around 0
Q(. If the vehicle battery
is frozen, you must thaw it before connect­
ing the jump start cables. If you do not, this
increases the risk of an explosion and chem­
ical burns. After jump starting the vehicle,
drive to an authorized Audi dealer or author­
ized Audi Service Facility immediately to
have the vehicle battery checked.
- The engine compartment is a dangerous
area and can cause serious injuries. Before
working in the engine compartment, read
and follow the warnings
Qpage 318.
- Handling the jump start cables incorrectly
may cause the vehicle battery to explode
and lead to serious injuries . To reduce the
risk of injury, observe the following:
- Do not touch the non-insulated parts of the
terminal clamps. The cable must also not
come into contact with vehicle components
that conduct electricity when it is connected
to the positive terminal. This can cause a
short circuit.
- Route the jump start cables so they cannot
get caught in the moving parts in the engine
compartment.
- To reduce the risk of chemical burns, do not
bend over the vehicle battery.
- The locking bolts on the battery cells must
be tightened securely.
- Keep ignition sources (open flames, burning
cigarettes, etc.) away from the vehicle bat­
teries to reduce the risk of an explosion.
- Do not clamp the negative cable to fuel sys­ tem components or to the brake lines.
(LlJ} Note
- There must be no contact between the
vehicles, If there is, current could already be
.,.

Emergency situations
9. Route the jump sta rt cables so they cannot
get caught in the moving parts in the engine
compartment.
Starting the engine
10. First start the engine in the vehicle g iving the
charge and let it run at idle.
11. Now start the engine in the vehicle with the
drained vehicle battery and wait two to three
minutes until it "runs smoothly" .
12.
If the engine does not start, stop the starting
procedure after 10 seconds and then repeat
it after approximately 30 seconds .
13 . In the vehicle that is being jump started,
switch the heater fan and rear w indow de­
froster on to reduce any voltage peaks that may occur when disconnecting the jumper
cab les. The headlights must be switched
off.
14. While the engines a re running, remove the
cables in
reverse order from the way they
were installed, as described in ¢
page 3 76.
Make sure the cables do not get caught in
moving engine components.
15 . Close the cap on the positive term inal.
16 . Sw itch the heater fan and rear w indow de­
froster

and ¢ (D in Preparation on page 375 .
@ Tips
-Make sure that the connected positive ter­
minal clamps have sufficient contact with
metal.
- The vehicle battery in your vehicle vents to
the outs ide so the battery gases drain out of
the veh icle .
Towing with a tow truck
General hint s
Your Audi requires special handling for towing.
The follow ing information is to be used by com­
mercial tow truck operators who know how to op­
erate the ir equipment safely.
-Never tow your Audi. Towing will cause dam­
age to the engine and transmission .
378
-Never wrap the safety chains or winch cables
around the brake lines .
- To prevent unnecessary damage , your Audi
must be transported with a flatbed truck.
- To load the vehicle on to the flatbed, use the
towing loop found in the vehicle tools and at­
tach to the front or rear anchorage
