be burned. Wait until no steam or coolant is
escaping.
- If the hood is not latched completely, it
could fly up while you are driving and ob­
struct your vision.
- For safety reasons, the hood must always be
closed securely while driving. Because of
this, always check the hood after closing it
to make sure it is latched correctly. The
hood is latched if the front corners cannot
be lifted.
- If you notice that the hood is not latched

Fig. 152 Sill panels : mark in gs
Fig. 153 Sill : pos itio nin g th e ve hicle jack
The location of the jack point is indicated by an
indentation on the underside of the vehicle
¢ fig. 152 .
,.. Activate the pa rking brake to prevent the vehi­
cle from rolling unintentionally .
,.. Move the selector lever to the P position.
,.. Find the
m arki ng (imprint) on the sill that is
nearest the wheel that will be changed
c> fig . 152. Behind the marking, there is a li ft ­
ing po int
on the sill for the vehicle jack.
• Turn the
veh icle jack located under the lifting
point on the s ill to ra ise the jack until the
jaw @¢
fig. 153 covers the notch on the veh i­
cle ¢
.&_, ¢(D .
,.. Align the vehicle jack so the jaw @covers the
notch and the base plate @ is flat on the floor .
The base plate @ must be
vertical under the
lifting point @.
,.. Install the rod on the vehicle jack : Insert the
rod into the opening on the handwheel. Turn
the rod left or right to secure it .
194
• Continue raising the jack with the rod until the
wheel lifts off the ground slight ly.
Position the vehicle jack
only under the designat ­
ed lifting points on the sill
c> fig. 152. There is ex­
actly
one l ocation fo r each wheel. The jack must
not be positioned at any other location
c> & ,
¢(I) .
So ft ground
under the jack can cause the vehicle
to slip off the jack . Always place the jack on firm
ground . Use a flat, stable support if necessary.
Use a non-slip surface such as a rubber mat on a
sl ippery su rf ace such as tile.
A WARNING
-
- You or your passengers could be injured
while changing a wheel if you do not follow
these safety precautions:
- Position the vehicle jack only at the desig ­

Otherwise, the veh icle jack could slip and
cause an injury if it does not have suffi­
cient hold on the vehicle.
- Use only the jack* supplied with your vehi­ cle to raise the vehicle. If you use a jack
from a different vehicle, your vehicle may
slip off the jack - risk of injury!
- Do not use the jack* supplied with your ve­
hicle to raise other vehicles, as these may
slip off the jack - risk of injury!
- A soft or unstab le surface under the jack
may cause the vehicle to slip off the jack .
Always provide a firm base for the jack on
the gro und .
If necessary, use a sturdy
board unde r th e jack .

today's automobiles, have steadily reduced the
scope of maintenance and repairs which can be
carried out by vehicle owners.
Also, safety and
environmental
concerns place very strict limits
on the nature of repairs and adjustments to en­
gine and transmission parts which an owner can perform .
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usually re­
quire special tools, testing devices and other
equipment available to specially trained work ­
shop personnel in order to assure proper per­
formance, reliability and safety of the vehicle and
its many systems.
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs
can impair the operation and reliability of your
vehicle and even void your vehicle warranty .
Therefore, proof of servicing in accordance with
the maintenance schedule may be a condition for upholding a possible warranty claim made within
the warranty period.
Above all , operational safety can be adversely af­
fected, creating unnecessary risks for you and
your passengers.
If in doubt about any servicing, have it done by
your authorized Audi dealer or any other properly equipped and qualified workshop. We strongly urge you to give your authorized Audi dealer the
opportunity to perform all scheduled mainte­ nance and necessary repairs. Your dealer has the
facilities, original parts and trained specialists to keep your vehicle running properly .
Performing limited maintenance yourself
The following pages describe a limited number of
procedures which can be performed on your vehi­
cle with ordinary tools, should the need arise and
trained personnel be unavailable. Before per­
forming any of these procedures, always thor­
oughly read all of the applicable text and careful­ ly follow the instructions given . Always rigorously
observe the
WARNINGS provided .
Before you check anything in the engine com­
partment, always read and heed all WARNINGS
c::> .&. and c::> .&. in Working in the engine compart­
ment on page 155. Consumer Information
A WARNING
-
Serious personal injury may occur as a result
of improperly performed maintenance, ad­
justments or repairs .
- Always be extremely careful when working
on the vehicle. Always follow commonly ac­
cepted safety practices and general com­
mon sense. Never risk personal injury.
- Do not attempt any of the maintenance,
checks or repairs described on the following
pages if you are not fully familiar with these
or other procedures with respect to the ve­
hicle, or are uncertain how to proceed.
- Do not do any work without the proper tools
and equipment. Have the necessary work
done by your authorized Audi dealer or an­
other properly equipped and qualified work­
shop.
- The engine compartment of any motor vehi­ cle is a potentially hazardous area. Never
reach into the area around or touch the radi­
ator fan.
It is temperature controlled and
can switch on suddenly - even when the en­
gine is off and the ignition key has been re­
moved. The radiator fan switches on auto­
matically when the coolant reaches a certain
temperature and will continue to run until
the coolant temperature drops.
- Always remove the ignition key before any­
one gets under the vehicle.
- Always support your vehicle with safety
stands if it is necessary to work underneath
the vehicle . The jack* supplied with the vehi­
cle is not adequate for this purpose and
could collapse causing serious personal in­
jury.
- If you must work underneath the vehicle
with the wheels on the ground, always make
sure the vehicle is on level ground, that the
wheels are always securely blocked and that the engine cannot be started.
- Always make sure the transmission selector
lever (automatic transmission) is in P (Park
position) and the park brake is applied.
