Cord
means the strands form ing the
plies in the tire.
Cold tire inflation pressure
means the tire pressure recom­
mended by the vehicle manufac­
turer for a tire of a designated
size that has not been driven for
more than a coup le of miles (kilo­
meters) at low speeds in the three
hour period before the tire pres­
sure is measured or adjusted .

jacent tread ribs .
Load rating (code )
means the max imum load that a
tire is rated to carry for a given in­
flation pressure . You may not find

load limits.
-The tire must flex more if the tire pressure is too low or if
the vehicle speed or load are
too high. This heats the tire up
too much. This increases the
risk of an accident because it
can cause the tire to burst and
result in loss of vehicle con­
trol.
-Incorrect tire pressure increas­
es tire wear and has a negative
effect on driving and braking
Tire pressure table
Please note that the information
contained in the following table
was correct at the time of print­
ing, and the information is sub­
ject to change. If there are differ­ ences between this information
and the tire pressures specified
on the label on the driver's side 8-pillar, always follow the specifica­
tion on the 8-pillar label

behavior, which increases the
risk of an accident.
(D Note
Replace lost valve caps to re­
duce the risk of damage to the
tire valves.
@ For the sake of the environment
Tire pressure that is too low in­
creases fuel consumption.
(D Tips
Audi recommends using the
tire pressure specified for a nor­
mal load
c:::> page 216 or for a
full load when the vehicle is
partially loaded.
Make sure that the tire designa­
tion on your tire matches the des­ ignation on the tire pressure label
and the tire pressure table.
The following table lists recom­
mended tire pressures in cold
tires according to the load and the size of the tires installed. .,.

Technical data
Gross Axle Weight Rating
The Gross Axle Weight Rating is the maximum load that can be appli ed at each axle of the vehi ­
cle ¢& .
Vehicle capacity weight The vehicle capacity we ight (max. load) is listed
on the driver's side 8 -p ill ar.
_& WARNING
- T he actual Gross Axle Weight Rating at the
front and rear axles should not exceed the
permissible weights, and their combination
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating .
Dimensions
Length in (mm)
Width in (mm)
Width (across mirrors) in (mm)
Height (unloaded) al in (mm) -
Exceeding permissible weight ratings can
result in veh icle damage, acc idents and per­
sonal injury.
(D Note
- The vehicle capacity weight figures apply
when the load is distributed evenly in the
vehicle (passengers and luggage). When
transporting a heavy load in the luggage
compartment, carry the load as near to the
rear axle as possible so that the vehicle 's
hand ling is not impaired .
- Do not exceed the maximum permissible
axle loads or the maximum gross vehicle
we ight. Always remember that the vehicle's
hand ling will be affected by the extra load.
T herefore, adjust your speed accordingly.
- Always observe local regulations .
