blades.
@ Note
- If there is frost, make sure the windshield
wiper blades are not frozen to the wind­
shield. Switching on the windshield wipers
when the blades are frozen to the wind­
shield can damage the w iper blades.
- Prior to using a car wash, the windshield
wiper system must be sw itched off (lever in
position

(D Note
-Only fold the windshield wipers away when
they are in the service position. Otherwise,
you could damage the paint on the hood or
the windshield wiper motor.
- You should not move your vehicle or operate the windshield wiper lever when the wiper
arms are folded away from the windshield.
The windshield wipers would move back in­
to their original position and could damage
the hood and windshield.
- To help prevent damage to the wiper sys­
tem, always loosen blades which are frozen
to the windshield before operating the wip­
ers.
- To help prevent damage to the wiper
blades, do not use gasoline, kerosene, paint
thinner, or other solvents on or near the
wiper blades.
- To help prevent damage to the wiper arms

Intelligent Technology
- The re is no vehicle stabilizat ion when ESC/
ASR are switched off.
Braking
New brake pads
New b rake pads do not achieve the ir full braking
effect during the first 250 miles (400 km) . They
must be "broken in" first . However, you can com­
pensate for the slightly reduced brak ing force by
pressing firmly on the brake pedal. Avoid heavy
braking dur ing the break-in per iod.
W ear
Brake pad wear depends largely on the way the
vehicle is driven and on operating conditions.
This is especially true if you are driving frequently
in the c ity and on curves or with a sporty driving
style .
Operating noise
Noises may occur when braking depending on the
speed, b raking force and outside conditions such
as tempe rature and humidity.
W et conditions or road salt
In certain s ituations, for example after dr iving
through water, in heavy rain or after washing
your car, the brak ing effect may be reduced due
to mo isture or ice on the brake rotors and brake
pads. The brakes must be "dr ied" first wit h a few
careful brake applications.
At higher speeds and with the windshie ld wipers
turned on, the brake pads press against the brake
rotors for a short amount of time. Th is action,
which is not felt by the driver, happens at regular
i n tervals a nd ensu res a better reaction time for
the bra kes in wet weather .
The braking effect can also be reduced if you are
driving on salted roads and you do not apply the
brakes fo r long periods of time . The laye r of salt
on the brake rotors and pads must be wo rn off
fi rst when the b rakes are app lied.
Corrosion
Leaving the vehicle parked for long periods of
time, low mi leage and avo iding heavy brak ing
136
can con trib ute to corros ion on t he b rake roto rs
and to dirty brake pads .
I f you usu all y avoid he avy br aking or if there is
corrosion present, occasiona l heavy brak ing at
high speeds is recommended to clean the brake
rotors and pads~.&. .
Brake system malfunction
if you not ice that the b rake peda l t ravel has sud­
denly gotten larger, t hen a b rake c ircuit in the
dual-c ircuit brake system may have failed. Drive
to an authorized Audi dea ler o r authorized Audi
Se rvice Facility immediate ly to have the prob lem
corrected . On the way there, dr ive with reduced
speed and keep in mind tha t you w ill need a lon­
ger distance to stop and you will need to press
the brake pedal harder.
l o w brake fluid level
When the brake fluid level is low, malfunctions in
the brake system may occur. The brake fluid level
i s electronically monitored.
Brake booster
The bra ke boos ter amp lifies the p ressure yo u ap ­
ply to the brake pedal. It only wor ks when the en­
gine is running .
A WARNING
- Only app ly the bra kes for the purpose o f
cleaning the brake system w hen road and
traffic conditions permit. You must not en­
danger other road users. This i ncreases the
r is k of an accident.
-
- Never let the ve hicle roll while the engine is
s to pped because t his i ncreases the ris k of an
acciden t.
Q) Note
- Never let the brakes "rub" by pressing the
peda l lightly when braking is not actually
necessary . This causes t he b rakes to over ­
heat and incr eases brak ing distanc e and
c a u ses we ar.
- Before driving a long d istance o n a steep
d ownward hill, decrease your speed a nd se-
le ct a lo wer driving gear. This m akes use of

products when buying cleaning agents.
- Do not dispose of leftover cleaning and care
products with household trash.
Car washes
The longer that deposits such as insects, bird
droppings, tree sap or road salt remain on the ve­
h icle, the more the surface can be damaged. High
temperatures such as those caused by sunlight
i ncrease the damag ing effect .

p lenty of water.
Stubborn deposits such as bird droppings or tree
sap are best removed with plenty of wate r and a
microfiber cloth.

remove d ust and large particles from your vehi­
cle. Insects, grease spots and f ingerprints are
best removed w ith a special cleaner for matte
finish paint.
Apply the product using a microfiber cloth . To
avo id damag ing the pa int surface, do not use too
much pressure .
Rinse the vehicle thorough ly with water. Then
clean using a neutra l shampoo and a soft mic ro­
fiber cloth.
