Tongue weight
The maximum permitt ed tongue weight of the
trailer drawbar on the trailer hitch ball head may
not be exceeded .
I f the tongue we ight is too low, th is affects t he
trailer's handling. For driv ing safety, we recom­
mend to always utilize the maximum permitted
tongue weight, but not exceed it. You can reach
it, for example, by distributing the cargo in the
trailer correctly.
You can determine the tongue weight, for exam­
p le, with a bathroom scale or a public weigh sta ­
tion .
The permitted tongue we ight of your veh icle can
be found in the vehicle documentation or in
¢page 370.
Load distribution
Poor cargo load and distribution can negatively
i mpact ve hicle handl ing .
-Store objects preferably in the vehicle luggage
compartment. The vehicle shou ld always carry
the heaviest possible load and the trailer
shou ld have the lightest possible load.
-Distribute the load in the tra iler so that the
heavy objects are as close to the axle as possi­
ble.
-Secure objects from slid ing out of p lace.
-Utilize the maximum permitted tongue weight
if possible .
Tires
Set the tire pressure on your vehicle for a "full
load"; see the t ire pressure
sticker¢ page 335 .
If necessary, also adjust the tire pressure on the
trailer according to the manufacturer's recom­
mendation .
W inter tires should be mounted on the vehicle
and on the trailer during winter temperatures .
Outside mirrors
If you cannot see the traffic behind the trailer
with the standard exterior mirrors, then you must attach addit ional exterior m irrors. Adjust
them so you have a sufficient visibility behind
you .
Trailer towing
Exterior lighting
Follow the legal regu lations rega rding the light ­
ing equipment on your trailer. Contact an author­
ized Audi dea ler or authorized Audi Service Facili­
ty for more information.
Before starting to drive , check all lighting eq uip­
ment on the hitched trailer.
T he headlight range cont rol adjusts automat ica l­
ly to the light range of the headlights .
Safety chains
Make sure the safety chains are correctly applied
when pulling a trailer . The cha ins should hang
enough so that the trailer can drive around
curves . Howeve r, th ey must not touch the
ground.
Air suspension
Applies to: vehicles with air suspension
The air suspens ion must be at the standard vehi­
cle height before you set the tongue weight on
the tra iler and hitch the
trailer ¢@ , ¢page 128,
Raising/lowering the vehicle.
For vehicles with a factory-installed trailer hitch,
the a ir suspension trailer mode w ill automatically
switch on if you connect the trailer cable to the
socket.
For vehicles with a retrofitted trailer hitch, you
must sw itch on the a ir suspension trailer mode
manua lly . Select in the Infotainment system:
IMENU I button> Vehicle> left cont rol button>
Vehicle settings > Air suspension: trailer. Switch
i t off again after towing a tra iler .
You can also sw itch off trailer mode manually
wh ile dr iving, for example, whe n using a bicycle

tions, you can ra ise the vehicle again after hitch­
i ng the tra iler o r after adjusting the tongue

- To reduce the risk of cuts, protect yourself
from sharp metal components when wash­ ing the underbody or the inside of the wheel
housings.
- After washing the vehicle, the braking effect may be delayed due to moisture on the
brake rotors or ice in the winter . This in­
creases the risk of an accident. The brakes
must be dried first with a few careful brake
applications.
@ Note
- If you wash the vehicle in an automatic car
wash, you must fold the exterior mirrors in
to reduce the risk of damage to the mirrors.
Power folding exterior mirrors* must only
be folded in and out using the power folding
function.
- To reduce the risk of damage to the rims
and tires, compare the width between the
wheels on your vehicle with the distance be­
tween the guide rails in the car wash.

Sheet metal and bulb ho lde rs can have sha rp
edges that can cause ser ious cuts, parts must be
correct ly taken apart and then properly put back
