Vehicle care Technical data

-Stop the vehicle.
- Turn off the engine .
-Check the engine oil level with the dipstick~ page 301.
Dipstick readings checks too Low
-Top off oil to the proper level~ page 302.
- Make sure that the oil pressure warning symbol "e:7':
appears no longer in the display before you start driving
again.
Dipstick reading checks OK
If the oil pressure warning symbol "e:7': starts flashing
again even though the engine oil level checks
OK on the
dipstick ,
do not continue driving and do not let the
engine run in idle.
Instead , contact your authorized Audi
dealer for assistance.
W Tips
• The engine oil pressure symbol~ is not an indicator for a low
engine oil level. Do not rely on it. Instead, check the oil level in your
engine at regular intervals, preferably each time you refuel, and
always before going on a long trip.
• The yellow oil level warning indication requires oil refill or
workshop service without delay. Do not wait until the red oil pres­
sure warning ~ starts to flash before you respond to the low oil
level warning
:!:':! • By then, your engine may already have suffered
serious damage. •

One-touch wiping
- Move the lever to position@, when you want to wipe the
windshield
briefly.
Automatic wiper /washer
- Pull the lever to position © (toward the steeri ng w heel)
and hold .
- Re lease the lever. The washer stop s and t he wip ers keep
going for about four seconds . Depending on how long the
lever is held, d ifferent numbers of was h cyc les are
performed.
Turning off the wipers
- Move the lever back to positio n@ .
Gen eral information
The windshield wipers and the windshield washer system operate
only with the ign it ion on .
Dur ing a temporary stop, e.g. at a traff ic signa l, the set wipe speed is
automatica lly red uced by one stage.
Th e windshie ld washer noz zles a re heated at low tempe ratures when
the ignition is on .
Removing water droplets
About 5 seconds afte r the was h cycle is complete, the wipe r system
performs a single automat ic wipe cycle to remove any water droplets
that remain on the windshie ld w hile driving.
If you would like to deact ivate this delayed wipe cy cle w hile d riving,
you have to pull the lever to position ® aga in w it hi n 10 seconds after
this wipe cycle.
Water droplet removal is react ivated after the ign ition is sw itched off
and then on again.

W int er pos ition
T o speed up de -icing of the windshield wipers, they move to the
w inter position when the ig nitio n is switched off and at an outs ide
temperature below 39 °F (4 °C). In this position, the windshield
wipers a re in an a rea on the g lass which is reached by the air vents
below the g lass. It is also easier to remove snow and ice from the
windshield wipers in this position.
The w ipers leave the w inter pos it ion, when the ign it ion is switched
on, if the w indshield wipe r lever is operate d or the act ive rain sensor*
reacts to moisture .
Rain sensor*
The rain sensor operates on ly in the interval wiper position. When it
sta rts to rai n, the in terv al wiper mode is a ctivated a utomat ic al ly.
If the w indshield wipe r leve r is in the inte rval wipe position with the
ignition switched off, the rain sensor is not act ivated until vehicle
speed is above 4 mph (6 km/h) .
To reduce the sens itivity of the rain sensor, the switch © must be
moved down. To i ncrease t he se nsitivi ty of the ra in se nso r, the sw itch
must be moved up.
Th e higher the sensitivity setting, the sooner the windshie ld wipers
react to mo isture on the windshie ld . Increased sensit ivity is signa led
by the windshie ld wipers making a s ingle pass over the windshie ld.
Th e rain se nsor wiper inte rvals de pend on the se nsi tivity se tt ing as
well as veh icle speed . During br ief stops, w iper motion will ad just in
re lation to the amoun t of rain on the w indshield.
& WARNING
• Wiper blade s are crucial for safe dr iving! Only wh en they are in
good condition are the y able to clear the windows properly to
provide uncompromi sed vi sibility. Worn or damaged wiper blades
are a safety hazard~
