Emerg ency assis ta nce
The vehicle jack mode* switches off automatical­
ly at speeds above 6 mph (10 km/h).
A WARNING
If you are changing a tire on a steep hill, use a
block or similar object to block the opposite
wheel to prevent the vehicle from moving.
A WARNING

chang ing a wheel if you do not follow these
safety precautions :
- If you have a flat t i re, move a safe d ista nee
off the road . Turn off the engine, turn the
emergency flashers on and use other warn­
ing devices to alert other motorists.
- Make s ure that passengers wa it in a safe
place away from the vehicle and well away

- To help prevent the vehicle from moving
suddenly and possibly slipp ing off the jack,
always fully set the parking brake and block
the wheel diagona lly oppos ite the wheel be­
ing changed with the folding chocks or oth ­
er objects . When one front wheel is lifted
off the ground, placing the Automatic
Transmission in "P" (Park) will
not prevent

~ If the removed wheel does not fit in the spare
whee l we ll, store it securely in the luggage
compartment ¢
page 242.
~ Check the tire pressure on the installed whee l
as soon as possible.
~ On vehicles with a Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys ­
tem*, check the tire pressure and store it in the
Infotainment system
<::;> page 336 .
~ The wheel bolt tightening specification must be
90
ft lbs (120 Nm). Check it as soon as possible
with a torque wrench . Drive carefully until then.
~ Have the faulty wheel replaced as quickly as
possible.
(D Tips
- If you notice that the wheel bolts are cor­
roded and difficult to turn while changing a
tire, they should be replaced before you
check the tightening torque.
- Drive at reduced speed until you have the
tightening torques checked.
Notes on wheel changing
Please read the information ¢ page 324 if you
are go ing to use a replacement tire which is dif­
ferent from the tires on your vehicle.
After you change a tire:
- Check the tire pressure on the replacement
tire immediately after installation.
- Have the wheel bolt tightening torque
checked with a torque wrench as soon as pos­
sible by your authorized Audi dealer or quali­
fied workshop.
- With steel and alloy wheel rims, the wheel
bolts are correctly tightened at a torque of
90 ft lbs (120 Nm).
- If you notice that the wheel bolts are corroded
and difficult to turn while changing a tire,
they should be replaced before you check the
tightening torque.
- Replace the flat tire with a new one and have
it installed on your vehicle as soon as possi­
ble . Remount the wheel cover.
Until then, drive with extra care and at reduced
speeds .

When jump starting or charging the battery,
never connect the negative ground cable to
the battery negative post because the battery
manager system must be able to detect the
battery's state of charge . Always connect the
negative ground cable to the negat ive ground
post of the battery manager control unit .
Using the jump start
cable
Both jump start cables must be connected in the
correct order!
Fig. 274 Engine co mpa rtment: connecto rs for jump start
cables and a charger
@
Fig. 275 Ju mp sta rting us ing a battery in another vehicle:
@ -providing cu rre nt, @ - drained
The procedure described below for connecting
jumper cables is intended to provide a jump start
for your vehicle.
Vehicle with discharged battery
.. Turn off lights and accessories, move automatic
transmission lever to N (Neutral) or P (Park)
and set parking brake .
Emergency situations
Connecting the positive cable (red) to the
po sitive terminal
.. Open the red cover on the positive terminal
r=>fig.274 .
1. Secure one end of the positive cable (red) to
the jump start pin
r=> fig. 275 (D (pin under
the red cover = "posit ive") on the vehicle that
needs to be started @.
2. Secure the other end of the pos itive cable
(red) to the positive termina l@ on the bat­
tery provid ing the current @.
Connecting the negative cable (black) to the
negative terminal
3. Secure one end of the black negat ive cab le to
the negative terminal @on the battery that
i s p roviding the current@.
4. Secure the other end of the negative cable
(black) to the jump start pin@ (hex head pin
= "negative") on the vehicle that needs to be
started @.
Starting the engine
.. Start the engine on the vehicle providing the
jump start @and let it run at idle .
.. Now start the engine on the vehicle with the
drained battery @ .
.. If the engine does not start, stop the starting
procedure after 10 seconds and then repeat it
after approx imately 30 seconds .
.. Remove the cables when the engines are run­
ning. Remove them in reverse order from the
way they were installed.
.. Close the red cover on the positive terminal.
T he battery is vented to the outside to prevent
gases from enter ing the vehicle interior . Make
s ur e that the jumper clamps are well connected
with their
metal ports in full contact with the
battery terminals.
_& WARNING
-To avoid serious personal injury and damage to the vehicle, heed all warnings and instruc ­
tions of the jumper cable manufacturer. If in
doubt, call for road service.
- Jumper cables must be long enough so that
the vehicles do not touch . ..,_
357

Emergency situations
-When connecting jumper cables, make sure
that they cannot get caught in any moving
parts in the engine compartment.
- Do not bend over the batteries -danger of
chemical burns!
- The battery cell locking screws must be
tightened securely.
- Before you check anything in the engine
compartment, always read and heed all
WARNINGS
c> page 304.
(D Note
Improper hook-up of jumper cables can ruin
the generator.
- Always connect POSITIVE(+) to POSITIVE
(+), and NEGATIVE(-) to NEGATIVE(-)
ground post of the battery manager control
unit.
- Check that all screw p lugs on the battery
cells are screwed in firmly. If not, tighten
plugs prior to connect ing clamp on negative
battery terminal.
- Please note that the procedure for connect ­
i ng a jumper cable as described above ap­
plies specifically to the case of your vehicle
being jump started . When you are giving a
ju mp start to another vehicle, do
not con­
nect the negative (-) cable to the negative
(-) terminal on the discharged batte ry @
c> fig. 2 75. Instead, securely connect the
negative( -) cab le to either a solid metal
component that is firm ly bolted to the en­
gine block or to the engine block itself. If
the battery that is being charged does not
vent to the outside, escap ing battery gas
could ignite and explode!
