Audi Homelink ® Uni versal Transm itter*
-� ....... ..
The Audi Homelink ® Un iversal Transm itter
is located on the driver's side sun visor.
This innovative feature will learn the radio
frequency codes of most current transmit­
ters used to activate garage doors, entry
door locks, estate gates, security systems,
and home or office lighting.
The Homelink ® Universal Transmitter is ca­
pable of operating up to three separately
controlled devices. The
Homelink ® operates off the vehicles
battery and charging system and has non­
volatile memory. If the battery dies or is dis­
connected, Homelink® will retain all pro­
gramming.
�W ARNING
When programming the Audi
Homelink® Universal Transm itter,
you may be operating a garage
door or estate gate. Make sure that
people and objects are out of the
way to prevent potential harm or
damage. Note
Do not
use this Audi Homelink®
Universal Transmitter with any ga­
rage door opener that lacks the
safety stop and reverse feature as
required by federal safety stan­
dards. This includes any garage door
opener model manufactured before
April 1, 1982.
A garage door opener which cannot
detect an object, signaling the door
to stop and reverse does not meet
current federal safety standards.
Using a garage door opener without
these features increases risk of seri­
ous injury or death.
For more information, call toll-free:
1 (800) 355-3515.

Only
when tires show unusual wear such as
feather-e dging should they be rotated diag­
� nall y. Yo ur vehicle may be equipped with
trres which have a specified rotation direc­
tion. The rotation direction is identified by
arrow markings on the sides of the tires.
The rotation direction must not be revers ed.
Therefore, these tires cannot be switched
diagonally. If in doubt, discuss any unusual
tire wear with your authorized Audi Dealer's
service department.
After rotation adjust tire pressure and
torque wheel bolts diagonally to 90 tt lb
(120 Nm). Refer to "Changing a wheel" on
page 267 for details. Tire
replacement
Wheels and tires approved by the manu fac­
turer have been specially matched to your
vehicle and contribute greatly to the road­
holding, driving characteristics and safety of
the vehicle.
Make sure that the new tires also meet the
specifications listed on the label located on
the inside of the fuel filler flap or on the driv­
er's door lock jamb.
It's �mporta nt to remember that in spite of
h �vrng the same tire designation, the actual
s1ze of a tire can vary from tire man ufacturer
to tire man ufacturer. Using different tire and
wheel rim combinations can result in re­
duced clearance between the tire and the
vehicle body.
Therefore, never mount tires that
are of a different designation or
have different dimensions from
those of the factory supplied tires
which came equipped on your ve­
hicle. VE
HICLE CARE
• If you must replace tires different from
those which were originally factory supplied
on your vehicle, always use the specific
brands, specifications and dimensions
which were specified by Audi for your ve­
hicle.
Yo ur authorized Audi dealer or Audi Client
Relations have information regarding the
t1res and wheel rims specified for your car,
and can tell you which tires and tire
man ufacturers were approved by the fac­
tory for original equipment installation.
• We recommend that you have your tires
changed by an authorized Audi Dealer, be­
cause they have the special tools and nec­
essary expertis e.
Furthermore, your authorized Audi Dealer
stocks a range of tires and wheels.
• If the spare tire is different from the tires
that you have mounted on your vehicle (for
example winter tires or wide profile tires),
then use the spare tire for a short period of
time only and drive with extra care. Replace
the flat tire with a tire matching the others
on your vehicle as soon as possible.
