Care of vehicle and cleaning 220Care of vehicle and cleaningGeneral notesRegular care helps to maintain the value of the vehicle.Regular and careful care helps to maintain the value of the vehicle.
This may also be one of the requirements for upholding any
warranty claims in the event of corrosion or paint defects.
Audi dealers and specialist retailers carry stocks of suitable car care
products. Please follow the instructions for use on the packaging.
WARNING
•
Cleaning products and other materials used for car care can
damage health if misused.
•
Car care materials can contain toxic substances and must
always be kept in a safe place out of reach of children.For the sake of the environment
•
When purchasing car care products, try to select ones which are
not harmful to the environment.
•
Surplus cleaning materials should not be disposed of together
with ordinary household waste.
Care of exteriorWa s hi ng t he ve hi c l eThe longer substances like insects, bird droppings, resinous tree
sap, road dirt, industrial deposits, tar, soot or road salt and other
aggressive materials remain on the vehicle, the more damage they do to the paintwork. High temperatures (for instance in strong
sunlight) further intensify the corrosive effect.
After the period when salt is put on the roads it is important to have
the underside of the vehicle washed thoroughly.
Automatic car washes
Before going through a car wash, be sure to take the usual precau-
tions such as closing the windows and sunroof. If the vehicle has
special accessories such as spoilers or a roof carrier or two-way
radio aerial, etc., it is advisable to consult the car wash operator.
It is best to use a car wash without revolving bristles if possible.
Washing your car with a high-pressure cleaner
When cleaning the vehicle with a high-pressure cleaner, always
follow the operating instructions for the equipment. This applies
particularly to the operating pressure and the spraying distance. Do
not hold the spray nozzle too close to soft materials, such as rubber
hoses or seals.
Do not use a nozzle that sprays the water out in a direct stream or
one that has a rotating jet for forcing off dirt.
Washing the car by hand
When washing the car by hand, use plenty of water to soften the dirt
first, and rinse off as well as possible.
Then clean the vehicle with a soft sponge, glove or brush, using only
slight pressure. You should start on the roof and work down. Special
car shampoo should only be used for very persistent dirt.
Rinse the sponge or glove thoroughly and often.
Wheels, sills and similar should be cleaned last. Use a second
sponge for this.

Technical data
Radio transmitters and business equipmentRadio transmitters (fixed installation)
Retrofit installations of radio transmitters in the vehicle are subject
to official approval. Audi generally authorises in-vehicle installa-
tions of approved types of radio transmitters provided that:•
the aerial is installed correctly,
•
the aerial is not installed in the interior of the vehicle (and
screened cables are used together with non-reflective aerial trim-
ming),
•
the effective transmitting power does not exceed 10 Watts at the
aerial base.
Audi dealers and specialist retailers will be able to inform you about
options for installing and operating radio transmitters with a higher
transmitting power.
Mobile radio transmitters
When using commercial mobile telephones or radio equipment it is
possible that they might interfere with the electronics of your
vehicle and cause malfunctions. The reasons could be:
•
no external aerial
•
external aerial incorrectly installed
•
transmitting power more than 10 W.
Therefore you must not operate portable mobile telephones or radio
equipment inside the vehicle without a correctly installed external
aerial ⇒.
Please note also that the maximum range of the equipment can only
be achieved with an external aerial.
Business equipment
Retrofit installation of business or other equipment in the vehicle is
permitted, provided the equipment cannot interfere with the driver's immediate control of the vehicle. Any such equipment must
carry the CE mark. Any retrofit equipment that could influence the
driver's control of the vehicle must have a type approval for your
vehicle and must carry the e mark.
WARNING
Mobile telephones or radio equipment which are operated inside
the vehicle without a correctly installed external aerial can create
excessive magnetic fields that could cause a health hazard.
Note
•
Any retrofit installation of electrical or electronic equipment in
the vehicle will affect its type approval. In extreme cases this could
mean that you might lose the type approval for your vehicle.
•
Please refer to the mobile telephone/radio operating
instructions.
