as sulfur ic acid and lead. Contact an author­
i zed Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service
Fac ility for more informat ion.
Vehicle battery
The term "vehicle battery" refers to the 12 Volt
battery in your vehicle.
Not running the vehicle for long periods of
time
If you do not drive your vehicle for severa l days or
weeks, electrical equ ipment is gradually sca led
back or switched off. This reduces energy use and
ensures the vehicle will be able to start after long
periods of
time<=> page 145 . Some convenience
funct ions, such as interior lighting or power seat
adjustment, may not be available under certain
circumstances . These convenience functions will
be available again once you switch t he ignition on
and start the engine .
Even when electrical equipment is switched off,
the equipm ent can still drain the vehicle battery
if the vehicl e is not driven for long periods of
time. Deep draining results in a chemical reaction
that destroys the inside of the vehicle battery.
The vehicle battery must be charged every month
to reduce the risk of this happening
<=> page 323.
Contact an authorized Aud i dealer or authorized
Audi Service Fac il ity for more information.
Winter operation
Cold weather places higher demands on the vehi­
cle battery. This results in reduced starting abili­
ty. Have the vehicle battery checked by an au­
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service
Fac il ity before the cold time of year .

Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace any bulbs for
you.
It is becoming increasingly more and more diff i­
cult to replace vehicle light bulbs s ince in many
cases, other parts of the ca r must fi rst be re­
moved before you a re able to get to the bu lb.
This applies espec ially to the light bu lbs in the
front of your car which you can only reach
through the engine compartment .
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
together to he lp prevent breakage of parts and
long term damage from water that can enter
housings that have not been properly resea led.
F or your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace any bu lbs for
3 6 2
you, since your dealer has the proper tools, the
correct bu lbs and the expertise.
Ga s di sc harg e lamp s (Xeno n ligh ts):
Due to the high electr ical voltage, have the bulbs
rep laced by a qualified technician . Headlights
with Xenon light a re identified by the hig h volt­
age sticker.
L ED he adligh ts*
LED headlights requ ire no maintenance. Please
contact your author ized Audi dealer if a bulb
needs to be replaced .
A WARNING
Changing Xenon lamps without the necessary
equ ipment can cause serious personal injury.
-Bulbs are pressurized and can explode when
be ing changed. Potent ial r isk of injury!
-O n veh icles equipped with gas discharge
bulbs (Xenon light) l ife-threaten ing injuries
can resu lt from improper handling of the
h igh-vo ltage portions of such lamps!
-O nly your author ized Audi dealer or quali­
fied wo rkshop shou ld change the bulbs in
gas discharge lamps. The re a re parts w ith
sha rp edges on the open ings and on the
bu lb holders that can cause serious cuts. If
you are uncertain about what to do, have the work performed by an authorized Audi
dea ler or qualified workshop. Serious per­
sonal injury may result from improperly per­
formed work.
(D Tips
-If you still prefer to replace the light bulbs
yourself, be aware that the engine compart­ ment is a hazardous area to work
i n c:> .&. in
Working in the engine compartment on
page 314.
-It is best to ask your authorized Audi dealer
whenever you want to change a bulb .

Emergency situations
General
This chapter is intended for trained emergency
crews and working personnel who have the nec­
essary tools and equipment to perform these
operations.
Starting by pushing or
towing
~ Note
Vehicles with an automatic transmission
cannot be started by pushing or towing.
Starting with jumper
cables
If necessary, the engine can be started by con­
necting it to the battery of another vehicle.
If the engine should fail to start because of a dis­
charged or weak battery, the battery can be con­
nected to the battery of
another vehicle, using a
pair of jumper cables to start the engine.
Jumper cables
Use only jumper cables of sufficiently large cross
section
to carry the starter current safely. Refer
to the manufacturer's specifications.
Use only jumper cables with
insulated terminal
clamps which are distinctly marked:
plus(+) cable in most cases colored red
minus(-) cable
in most cases colored black.
A WARNING -
Batteries contain electricity, acid, and gas.
Any of these can cause very serious or fatal in­
jury. Follow the instructions below for safe
handling of your vehicle's battery.
-Always shield your eyes and avoid leaning
over the battery whenever possible.
- A dead battery can freeze at temperatures
around 32 °F (0 °C). If the vehicle battery is
frozen, you must thaw it before connecting
the jump start cables. If you do not, this in-
Emergency situations
creases the risk of an explosion and chemi­
cal burns. After jump starting the vehicle,
drive to an authorized Audi dealer or author­
ized Audi Service Facility immediately to
have the vehicle battery checked.
- Do not allow battery acid to contact eyes or
skin. Flush any contacted area with water
immediately.
- Improper use of a booster battery to start a
vehicle may cause an explosion .
- Vehicle batteries generate explosive gases.
Keep sparks, flame and lighted cigarettes
away from batteries.
- Do not try to jump start any vehicle with a
low acid level in the battery .
- The voltage of the booster battery must also
have a 12-Volt rating. The capacity (Ah) of
the booster battery should not be lower
than that of the discharged battery. Use of
batteries of different voltage or substantial­
ly different "Ah" rating may cause an explo­
sion and personal injury.
- Never charge a frozen battery. Gas trapped
in the ice may cause an explosion.
- Never charge or use a battery that has been
frozen. The battery case may have be weak­
ened.
- Use of batteries of different voltage or sub­
stantially different capacity (Ah) rating may
cause an explosion and injury. The capacity
(Ah) of the booster battery should not be
lower than that of the discharged battery.
- Before you check anything in the engine
compartment, always read and heed all
WARNINGS
c>page 314.
@ Note
-Applying a higher voltage booster battery
will cause expensive damage to sensitive
electronic components, such as control
units, relays, radio, etc.
- There must be no electrical contact between
the vehicles as otherwise current could al­
ready start to flow as soon as the positive
(+) terminals are connected.

Emergency situations
@ Tips
The discharged battery must be properly con­
nected to the vehicle's electrical system .
When jump starting or charging the battery,
never connect the negative ground cable to
the battery negative post because the battery
manager system must be able to detect the
battery's state of charge. Always connect the
negat ive g round cable to the negative ground
post of the battery manager control unit.
