light in the sw itch goes out.
Your vehicle is equipped with an electrome
chanical parking brake . The parking b rake is
designed to p revent the veh icle from rolling
u nintentionally and replaces the hand b rake .
I n add ition to the normal functions of a tradi
tional hand brake, the electromechanical
parking brake provides vario us convenience
and safe ty f unct io ns.
When starting from rest
- The integral start ing ass ist helps you when
driving by automat ically releasi ng the park
ing brake
~ page 77 , Starting from rest .
-When start ing on i nclines, the start ing as
sist prevents the vehicle from uni ntentional
ly ro lling back . The braking force of the
pa rk ing brake is no t released unt il suff ic ient
driving force has been bui lt up at the
wheels . ..,.

A WARNING
If a gear or a drive range (automat ic trans
m ission) is engaged with the vehicle s ta
tionary and the engine runn ing, you must
in no instance accelerate or release the
clutch* care lessly. Otherw ise the vehicle
w ill sta rt to move immediately- risk of an
accident.
(D Note
If the . symbol in the display or the.
(USA models) . (Canada mode ls) indica

there is a mal function i n the brake system.
By pressing the

up a driver message which explains the
malfunction in more detai l. If the driver
message
Park ing brake! appears, there is
an operating malfunct ion in the parking
brake wh ich you shou ld have repa ired im
mediately by an author ized Audi dealer or
qualified workshop
c::> poge 15.
(D} Tips
-You can apply the parking brake at any
time -even w ith the ignition switched
off . The ignit ion must be t urned on and
the brake peda l must be pressed in o rder
to release the pa rking bra ke .
On th e ro ad 77
-Occasional noises when the parking
brake is app lied and released are normal
and are not a cause for concern.
- When the vehicle is pa rked, the park ing
brake goes through a self -test cycle at
regu lar interva ls. Any associated noises
are normal.
Parking
.,. Press the brake pedal to stop the veh icle .
.. Pull the sw itch @
c::> page 76, fig . 78 to set
the parking brake .
.,. Automatic transmission : M ove the selecto r
lever to P.
.. Tu rn the engine off¢,&. .
.. Manual transmission: Shift into 1st gear.
.. When on inclines or declines, turn the steer
ing wheel so that the vehicle will roll into
the curb if i t beg ins to move.
A WARNING
--- When you leave your vehicle -even if on-
ly briefly -always remove the ignition
key . Thi s app lies pa rticula rly whe n chil
dren remain in the vehicle. Ot herwise t he
children could star t the eng ine , release
the par king brake or operate electrical
equipment (e.g. power windows). There
is the risk of an accident.
- When the veh icle is locked, no one -par
ticularly not children should remain in
the vehicle . Locked doors make it more
difficult for emergency workers to get in
to the vehicle -putting lives at risk .
Starting from rest
The starting assist function ensures that the
parking brak e is r ele ased automatically upon

Warning threshold 2 can be set in the speed range starting from
20 mph to 150 mph (30
km/h to 240 km/h). Settings can each be ad
justed in intervals of
6 mph (10 km/h).
Cruise control
Switching on
The cruise control system makes it possible to
drive at a constant speed starting at
20 mph
(30 km/h).
Fig. 80 Control lever w it h push-bu tton
Fig. 81 Dis play : Sel ected speed
.. Pull the lever to position(;)¢ fig. 80 to
switch the system on.
.. Drive at the speed to be controlled .
.. Press button @ to set that speed.
The stored speed and the green symbol
co ~ 9 a:
l:l
II (US model)/ B (Canadian mode l) are
shown in the display¢
fig. 81. The display
may vary, depending on the type of display in
your vehicle.
The speed is kept constant by modifying en
g ine power or through an active brake inter
vention.
A WARNING
-- Always pay attent ion to the traffic
around you when the cruise control is in
operation. You are always responsible for
your speed and the distance between
your veh icle and other vehicles.
- For reasons of safety, cruise control
should not be used in t he city, in stop
and-go traffic, on twisting roads and
when road conditions are poor (such as
ice, fog, gravel, heavy rain and hydro
p laning) -risk of accident .
- Turn off the cruise control temporarily
when entering turn lanes, highway exit
lanes or in constr uction zones .
- Please note that inadve rtently "resting"
your foot on the accelerator pedal causes the cruise control not to brake. This is
because the cruise control is overridden
by the driver's acceleration.
- If a brake system malfunction such as
overheating occurs when the cruise con
trol system is switched on, the braking
function in the system may be sw itched
off. The other cruise control functions re
main active as long as the indicator light
II (US models)/ ... (Canadian models)
is on.
(D Tips
-Veh icles with manual transmiss ion: You
can attain the set speed only if the gear
th at is cur rently engaged will allow it, or
if it does not tax the engine and allows it
to run smoothly. Therefore shift into a
hig her or lower gear in a timely manner.
- Th e brake lights illuminate as soon as
the brakes apply automatically.
Changing speed
.. To increase/decrease the speed in incre
ments, tap the lever in the
0 10 direction

Gearshift lever
Applies to vehicles: with manual transmission
The clutch pedal must be depressed all the
way before you can start the engine.
The manual transmission in your Audi is
equipped with an
interlock-feature .
• Depress the clutch pedal all the way.
• Start the engine with the gearshift lever in
Neutral and the clutch pedal depressed.
(D Note
Always depress the clutch pedal fully when
changing gears. Do not hold the vehicle on
a hill with the clutch pedal partially de
pressed. This may cause premature clutch
wear or damage .
@ Tips
-Resting your hand on the gearshift lever
knob while driving will cause premature
wear in the transmission.
- The back-up lights go on when you sh ift
in to Reverse with the ignition on.

S tronic, tiptronic
Introduction
Applies to vehicles: with S tronic/tiptronic
T he automatic transmission is controlled elec
tronically. The transmission upshifts or down
shifts automatica lly depending on which drive
program is selected.
When a
moderate driving style is used, the
transmission selects the most economical
driving mode. It will then change up early and
delay the downshifts to give better fuel econ
omy .
T he transmission switches to a sporty mode
after a kick-down or when the driver uses a
sporty driving style characterized by quick ac
ce lerator pedal movements, heavy accelera
tion, frequent changes in speed and traveling
at the maximum speed.
If desired, the driver can also select the gears
manually (tiptronic mode) c> page 86.
Various automatic transmissions may be in
stalled, depending on the model:
S tronic transmission
The S tronic is a dual-clutch transmission.
Power is transferred using two clutches that
work independe ntly from one another. Th ey
replace the torque converter used in conven
tional automatic transmissions and al low the
vehicle to acce lerate without a noticeable in
terruption in tract ion.
tiptronic transmission
In the tiptronic transmission, power is trans
f er red by a torque converter.

A WARNING
-The vehicle can also roll when the engine
is stopped.
- Unintended vehicle movement can cause
serio us injury.
- Never leave your vehicle with the engine
ru nning while in gear. If yo u must leave
your veh icle when the engine is running,
activate the parking brake and move the
selector lever to P.
- Power is still transm itted to the wheels
when the engine is runn ing at idle. To
prevent the vehicle from "creeping", you
must keep your foot on the brake when
the eng ine is ru nning and the se lector
leve r is in D/S o r R or "t ipt ron ic" mode is
selec ted .
-Do not press the accelerator pedal when
changing t he se lector lever posi tion
while the veh icle is s ta tionary and the
engine is running .
- Never sh ift into R o r P wh ile d rivi ng.
- Before driving dow n a steep slope, re-
duce your speed and shift into a lowe r
gear wi th "tiptronic".
- Do not ride the bra kes o r press the bra ke
pe dal too ofte n or too long whe n driving
down a hi ll. Constant braking causes the
brakes to over heat and substantially re
duces braking performance, increases
brak ing distance or causes complete fa il
ure of t he brake system.
- To prevent the vehicle from ro lling back
when stopp ing o n inclines, always ho ld it
in place with the brake pedal or parking
brake.
- Never hold the vehicle on an incline with
a slipping clutch. The clutch opens auto mat ically when it becomes too hot from
the overload. An indicato r lamp
