battery.
• The voltage of the booster battery must also have a 12-Volt
rating . The capacity (Ahl of the booster battery should not be
lower than that of the discharged battery . Use of batteries of
different voltage or substantially different "Ah " rating may cause
an e xplosion and personal injury .
• Never charge a frozen battery. Gas trapped in the ice may cause
an explosion .
• Never charge or use a battery that has been frozen . The battery
case may have be weakened.

& WARNING !continued)
• Before you check anything in the engine compartment, always
read and heed all WARNINGS~ page 263, "Engine compartment".
0 Note
• Applying a higher voltage booster battery will cause expensive
damage to sensitive electronic components, such as control units,
relays, radio, etc .
• There must be no electrical contact between the vehicles as
otherwise current could already start to flow as soon as the positive
(+) terminals are connected.
[ i) Tips
• The discharged battery must be properly connected to the
vehicle's electrical system. 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 negative ground post of the battery manager
control unit .•
Use of jumper cables
Make sure to connect the jumper cable clamps in exactly
the order described below!

& WARNING
• To reduce the risk of serious injury and vehicle damage .
- Always lift the vehicle only at the special workshop hoist and
floor jack lift points illustrated~ page
331, fig. 257 and
~ page 331, fig. 258.
- Failure to lift the vehicle at these points could cause the
vehicle to tilt or fall from a lift if there is a change in vehicle
weight distribution and balance. This might happen, for
example, when heavy components such as the engine block or
transmission are removed.
• When removing heavy components like these, anchor vehicle
to hoist or add corresponding weights to maintain the center of
gravity. Otherwise, the vehicle might tilt or slip off the hoist,
causing serious personal injury.
0 Note
• Be aware of the following points before lifting the vehicle:
- The vehicle should never be lifted or jacked up from under­
neath the engine oil pan, the transmission housing, the front or
rear axle or the body side members . This could lead to serious
damage.
- To avoid damage to the underbody or chassis frame, a rubber
pad must be inserted between the floor jack and the lift points.
- Before driving over a workshop hoist, check that the vehicle
weight does not exceed the permissible lifting capacity of the hoist .
- Before driving over a workshop hoist, ensure that there is sufficient clearance between the hoist and low parts of the
vehicle. •

reliability. For detailed vehicle maintenance consult your Warranty &
Maintenance book let.
Und er di ffi cult ope rating cond ition s, for example at extremely low
outside temperatures, in very dusty regions, when towing a trailer
very frequen tly, etc., some service work shou ld be performed
between the intervals specified. This applies particularly to:
• oil changes, and
• cleaning or replacing the air filter.
By regularly maintaining your vehicle, you help make sure that emis­
sion standards are maintained, thus minimizing adverse effects on
the environment. •
Important considerations for you and your
vehicle
The increasing use of electronics, sophisticated fuel injection and
emission control systems, and the general ly increasing technical
complexity of today's automobi les, have steadi ly reduced the scope
of maintenance and repa irs which can be carried out by vehicle
owners.
Al so, sa fety a nd e nvironment al concerns p lace very strict
limi ts on the na ture of repairs a nd adjustments to engine and trans ­
mission parts which an owner can perform.
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usually require special tools,
testing dev ices and other equipment ava ilable to specially trained
workshop personnel in order to assure proper performance, reli ­
ability and safety of the vehicle and its many systems.
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs can impair the
ope ration and re liability of your vehic le and even void your vehic le
warranty. Therefore, proof of servicing in accordance with the main­
tenance schedu le may be a condition for upholding a pos sible
warranty claim made within the warranty period. Above all, operational safety can be adversely affected, creating
unnecessary r isks for you and your passengers .
If in doubt about any servicing, have it done by your authorized Audi
dea ler or any other properly equipped and qualified workshop. We
strongly urge you to give your authorized Audi dealer the opportu­
nity to perform all scheduled maintenance and necessary repairs.
Your dealer has the fac ilities, origina l parts and trained spec ial ists
to keep your vehicle running proper ly.
P e rforming limited maint ena nce your self
The following pages describe a lim ited number of procedures which
can be performed on your vehicle wi th ordinary too ls, should the
need arise and trained personnel be unavai lab le. Before performing
any of these procedures, a lways thoroughly read all of the appli ­
cable text and carefu lly follow the instructions given. Always rigor ­
