242 Checking and filling
@ For the sake of the environment
Be cause of the problem of proper disposa l
of brake flu id as we ll as the special tools
req uired and the necessary expert ise, we
recommend that you have the b rake fluid
changed by your author ized Audi dealer.
Battery
General information
Unde r normal operating conditions, the bat ­
tery in your A udi does not need any mainte ­
nance. With
high outside temperatures or
long daily dr ives we recommend that you have
the elect ro lyte level checked by an authorized
Aud i dea ler o r qualified workshop . The elec­
trolyte leve l sho uld a lso be c hecked each t ime
the battery is c harged ¢
page 244.
Have the battery checked when you take your
ve hicle in for service . Yo u are well adv ised to
replace a bat tery that is older tha n 5 yea rs .
W ith certa in types of a irbag deployment, t he
battery is d isconnected from the vehicle elec­
tr ica l system fo r safety reasons ¢
& in Re­
pair, core and disposal of the airbags on
page 171.
Hybr id d rive *: you can find important i nforma­
tion about the high voltage battery under
¢ page 97.
Disconnecting the battery terminals
Some veh icle functions (power w indow regu­
lators, for example) are lost if the battery ter­
minals a re discon nected. These functions have
to be re learned after the ba tte ry term inals a re
connect ed aga in. To prevent this , the battery
should only be d isconnected from the vehicle
e lec tric al sys te m whe n absolu tely necessa ry
for rep airs.
Vehicles not driven for long periods
If yo u do not dr ive you r vehicle over a pe riod
of severa l days or w eeks, ele ct rical com po­
n e nt s are gr adually cu t ba ck o r swi tched off .

adjustment, may not be availab le. T he con­
venience functions will be avai lab le aga in
when you tu rn on the ign ition and start t he
engine.
Winter operation
Du ring the winte r mon ths, bat tery ca pac ity
tends to dec rease as tem peratures drop . This
is beca use more power is a lso consumed wh ile
starting, and the headlights, rear wi ndow de­
fogger, etc ., are used more often.
Avoid unnecessary powe r consum ption, pa r­
t icu lar ly in city traffic or when traveling only
sho rt distances. Let your authori zed Aud i
dealer check the capacity of the vehicle bat ­
te ry before winter sets in ¢
page 244. A well
c h arged battery will not on ly preven t starti ng
problems when the wea ther is cold, but w ill
also last lo nger.
Working on the battery
Be especially careful when working on or near
the ba ttery.
The battery is located in the luggage compart­
me nt under the floor . B efo re you c hec k any­

272 What do I do now ?
Performing the repair
App lies to vehicles: with tire repair kit
Fig. 217 Perform ing the rep air
Pre parati ons
.. Park the vehicle as far as possible from mov­
ing traffic in the event of a flat tire.
.. Set the
parki ng brake to prevent the vehicle
from roll ing unintentionally .
.. Shift the
se lec tor le ver in to th e P po siti on.
.. Determine whethe r a repair w ith the tire re­
pair kit is possible or not
¢ page 271.
.. Let all of the passengers ex it th e vehicle
and move a safe distance away ¢& .
.. Take the
sealant bottle and the compre ssor
out of the luggage compartment
¢ page 104, fig. 112.
.. Affix the label "max. 50 mph (80 km/h)",
found on the sealant bottle, to the instru­
ment cluster where it can be seen by the
dr iver .
Fill ing a tire
.. Shake the bottle thoroughly before f il li ng.
.. Screw the accompanying filling hose com-
pletely onto the bottle. This breaks through
the foi l seal automatically at the connec ­
t ion.
.. Remove the valve cap from the tire va lve and
uns crew the valve inse rt using the accompa­
nying valve insert too l¢
fig . 217.
.. Lay the valve insert on a clean s urface .
.. Remove the sealing p lug from the filling
hose and connect the hose to the tire va lve .
.. Hold the bottle with the bottom fac ing up­
ward and empty the entire contents into the
tire.
.. Then pu ll out the hose and screw the valve
i nsert tightly back into the tire valve .
Inflating a tire
.. Screw the fill ing hose for the compressor
onto the tire valve and insert the connector
into the cigarette lighter .
.. Inflate the tire to between 29 PSI (200 kPA)
and 36 PSI (250 kPA) and read the pressure
on the gauge .
.. If this tire pressure is not reached, dr ive
your veh icle approximately 33 ft ( 10 meters)
forward or backward so that the sealant can be red istr ibuted inside the tire.
If at this
time the requi red a ir pressure st ill cannot be
reached , the tire is too badly damaged and
cannot be repaired with the tire sealant .
Final inspection
.. Stop the vehicle after driving for about 10
m inutes and check the tire pressure .
.. If the tire pressure is lower than 19 PSI
( 1 30 kPA), then the tire is too seve rely dam ­
aged. Do not continue driving . Please seek
professiona l assistance.
A WARNING
--
- Turn on the emergency flashers if you
have a flat tire while in moving traffic .
This is for your protect ion and the for the
safety of other drivers.
- Take care to move all of the passengers
to a safe place (behind a guard ra il for
example) .
- Read and follow the manufacturer's safe­
ty precautions on the compressor and in
the instructions on the bottle of sealant!
- If a tire pressure of 29 PSI (200 kPA) cannot reached after inflating for 12 m i­
nutes, then the t ire is too severe ly dam­
aged. Do not cont inue driving.
- Obta in qualified help if it is not possible
to pe rform the repair w ith the tire seal­
a nt .
- I f the tire pressure is less than 19 PSI
(130 kPA) afte r 10 minutes of d riving,
then the t ire is too severely damaged . Do
not continue dr iving. Seek p rofess ional
assistance .

(D Note
Special care is required if you are repairing
the tire on a steep incline.
@ Tips
-Do not operate the compressor for more
than 12 minutes continuously, otherwise it can overheat. Once the compressor has
cooled, you can continue to use it.
- If sealant has spilled out, let it dry and
then you can remove it by peeling it away
like a foil.
- Remember to obtain a new bottle of
sealant from your authorized Audi dealer
after repairing a tire. After this, the func­
tionality of the tire repair set is restored.
- Obey all laws.
Changing a wheel
Before changing a wheel
Observe the following precautions for your
own and your passenger's safety when chang­
ing a wheel.
.,. After you experience a tire failure, pull the
car well away from moving traffic and try to
reach
level ground before you stop¢_& .
.. All passengers should
leave the car and
move to a safe location (for instance, behind
the guardrail) ¢
_&.
.. Engage the parking brake to prevent your
vehicle from rolling unintentionally¢_&.
.. Move
selector lever to position P ¢ _& .
.,. If you are tow ing a trai ler: unhitch the trail­
er from your vehicle.
.,. Block the diagonally opposite wheel with
the folding chocks or other objects.
.. Take the
jack* and the inflatable spare tire*
out of the luggage compartment
¢page 268.
A WARNING
You or your passengers could be injured
while changing a wheel if you do not fol­
low these safety precautions:
-
What do I do now? 273
- If you have a flat tire, move a safe dis­
tance off the road. Turn off the engine,
turn the emergency flashers on and use
other warning devices to alert other mo­
torists.
- Make sure that passengers wait in a safe
place away from the vehicle and well
away from the road and traffic.
- To help prevent the vehicle from moving
suddenly and possibly slipping off the
jack*, always fully set the parking brake
and block the wheel diagonally opposite
the wheel being changed with the fold­
ing chocks or other objects. When one
front wheel is lifted off the ground, plac­
ing the Automatic Transmission in P
(Park) will
not prevent the vehicle from
moving.
- Before you change a wheel, be sure the
ground is level and firm. If necessary,
use a sturdy board under the jack*.
- Always store the vehicle tool kit, the
jack* and the replaced tire in the luggage
compartment
¢page 145.

bo lts .
- When mounting tires with
unid irectional
tread design
make sure the tread pat­
te rn is poi nted the right way
<=> page 2 77.
- The wheel bolts should be clea n and easy
to tu rn . Check for d irt and corrosion on
the mat ing s urfaces of both the wheel
and the hub. Remove a ll dirt from these
su rfaces before remo unting the wheel.
What do I do now? 277
Tires with unidirectional tread design
Tires with unidirectional tread design must be
mounted with their tread pattern pointed in the right direction .
Using a spa re tire with a tread pattern
intended for use in a specific direction
When using a spare t ire wi th a tread pat ter n
intended for use in a spec ific d irect ion, please
note the fo llowing :
- The d irect io n of rotation is marked by an ar­
row on t he side of the ti re .
- If the spare tire has to be insta lled in the in­
correct d irect ion, use the spare tire only
temporarily s ince the t ire will not be able to
achieve its optimum performance cha racte r­
is tic s w it h regard to aquap la ni ng, no ise and
wear .
- We recommend that you pay part icu lar at­
t en tion to th is f act d uring we t wea ther and
t ha t you adjus t you r speed to m atch r oad
conditions .
- Repla ce the fl at t ire wi th a new o ne and
have i t installed on your vehicle as soo n as
possible to resto re the han dling advantages
of a u nidirectional tire .
Notes on wheel changing
Please read the information¢ page 258, New
tires and replacing tires and wheels
if yo u a re
go ing to use a spare tire w hich is different
from the tires on yo ur vehicle .
After you change a tire:
- Check the tire pre ssure on the spare imme­
diately after installation.
- Have the wheel bolt tightening torque
checked with a torque wrench as soon a s
possible by your authorized Audi dealer or
a qualified workshop.
- With steel and alloy wheel rims , the wheel
bolts are cor re ctly tightened at a torque of
105 ft lb (140 Nm).
- If you notice that the wheel bolts are cor­
roded and diff icult to turn while changing
a tire, they should be replaced before you
check the t ightening torque. .,,.
