:E: ' filler door. For additional information on fuel,
see
~ page 314.
The fuel tank capacity of your vehicle is listed in
the
T ec hnical Dat a section ~ page 3 79.
To avoid fuel spill ing or evaporating from the fuel
tank always close fuel cap p roperly and com­
p letely . An improperly closed fue l filler cap may
a lso cause the MIL lamp~
page 21 to come on.
A WARNING -
Not paying attention when fueling or han ­
dling fue l incorrectly can lead to fires, exp lo ­
sions or serious in juries.
- Fuel ignites easily and can cause serious
burns and other injuries.
- If you do not switch the engine off when fu ­
eling and/or do not insert the fuel nozz le
completely into the tank opening, fue l can
leak out or run over. Leaked fuel can ignite
and start a fire.
- Do not use the telephone whi le fueling. The
electromagnetic rays can cause sparks,
wh ich can ignite fuel vapors and start a fire.
- Do not sit in your vehicle while fueling. If
you must make an except ion and enter your
vehicle again wh ile fue ling, close the door
and touch meta l to discharge static electric­
ity befo re touch ing the fue l nozzle . Static
elect ricity can create spar ks, wh ich can ig ­
ni te vapo rs when fue ling.
- Do not smoke or have an open flame in the
area when fueling your veh icle o r filling a
f uel contai ner because th is increases the
risk of an explos ion .
- For yo ur safety , carrying f uel containers in
yo ur vehicle is no t recommended. Whethe r
f ull or empty, the conta iner can leak a nd
cause a fire in the event of an accident .
- If you must make an exception and trans­
port a fuel container, note the following :
- Never fill the fuel container with fuel
while it is in or on the vehicle. Stat ic elec­
tr icity is d ischa rged when filling wh ich can
cause the f uel vapors to ignite and in­
creases the r isk of an explos ion.
- Always p lace a fuel containe r on the
g ro u nd before fi llin g.
Ch eck ing and Filling
-Always hold the fue l nozzle completely in
the fuel container when filling.
- If the fuel container is made of metal, the
fuel nozzle must always be in contact with
the container when filling it with fuel. This
prevents stat ic electricity from discharg­
ing .
- Never spill fuel in the vehicle or the lug­
gage compartment. Evaporated fuel is ex­
plosive and increases the risk of serious in­
jury or death .
- Follow lega l requirements when using,
stor ing and transporti ng fuel conta iners .
- Make sure the fuel container conforms to
industry standards (ANSI/AS TM F8S2-86).
@ Note
- Remove spilled fuel from vehicle pa int im­
mediately, because it can damage paint.
- Never drive unti l the fuel tank is complete ly
empty. The irregular supply of fue l that re­
sults from that can cause eng ine misfires.
Uncombusted fuel will enter the exhaust
system and increase the risk of damage to
the catalytic converte r.
- If the fue l tank runs complete ly empty in a
vehicle with a
diesel eng ine , the ignition
must remain swit ched on fo r at least 30
se conds afte r ref ueli ng before starti ng the
eng ine. It may take longer than usual fo r
t he engine to s tart, even up to a minu te.
T his is because the air must first b leed out
of the fue l system when starting the eng ine.
@ For the sake of the environment
Do not overfill the fuel tank, otherwise fuel
can leak out when the veh icle is warming up.
(D Tips
D iesel ve hicles are eq uipped w ith a diesel mis­
fueling guard .
It allows the vehi cle to be fu­
eled on ly with a diesel fuel pump nozzle. A
worn or damaged nozzle or a nozzle that is
too small may not be able to open the diese l
misfueling guard. If this is the case, try turn­
i ng the nozzle before inserting it in the fue l
filler neck, use a different fuel pump, o r see

Bulbs
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 diffi­
cult to replace vehicle light bulbs since in many
cases, other parts of the car must first be re­
moved before you are able to get to the bulb.
This applies especially to the light bulbs in the
front of your car wh ich you can only reach
through the eng ine compartment.
Sheet metal and bulb ho lders can have sharp
edges that can cause serious cuts, parts must be
correctly taken apart and then properly put back
together to help prevent breakage of parts and long term damage from water that can enter
housings that have not been properly resea led.
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your author ized Audi dealer replace any bulbs for
you, s ince your dealer has the proper tools, the
correct bulbs and the expert ise.
Gas discharge lamps (Xenon lights):
Fuses and bulbs
Due to the high e lectrica l voltage, have the bulbs
rep laced by a qualified technician. Headlights
with Xenon light are identified by the high volt­
age sticker.
LED headlights*
LED headlights require no maintenance. Please
contact your authorized Audi dealer if a bulb
needs to be replaced.
& WARNING ~ -
Changing Xenon lamps without the necessary
equipment can cause serious personal injury.
- Bulbs are pressurized and can explode when
being changed . Potential risk of injury!
- On veh icles equipped with gas discharge
bu lbs (Xenon light) life-threatening injuries
can resu lt from improper handling of the
h igh-vo ltage portions of such lamps!
- Only your authorized Audi dealer or quali­
fied workshop shou ld change the bulbs in
gas discharge lamps. There are parts with
sharp edges on the openings and on the bulb holders that can cause serious cuts. If
you are uncerta in about what to do, have
the work performed by an authorized Audi deale r or qualified workshop. Ser ious per­
sonal injury may result from improperly per­
formed work.
(D Tips
-If you st ill prefer to replace the light bulbs
yourself, be awa re that the engine compa rt­
ment is a hazardous area to work in~.&..
in
Working in the engine compartment on
page 322.
-It is best to ask your authorized Audi dealer
whenever you want to change a bulb.

:E: ' @ For the sake of the environment
-Changing the engine settings wi ll adversely
affect emission leve ls. Th is is detrimental to
the env ironment and increases fuel con­
sumption.
- Always observe environmental regu lations
when disposing of old engine o il, used brake
flu id, d irty engine coolant, spent batteries
or worn out tires .
- Undeployed airbag modules and pretension­
ers might be classified as Perchlorate Mate­
rial -spec ial handling may apply, see
www .dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlo­
rat e. When the vehicle or pa rts of the re­
straint system including airbag modules
safety be lts with pretens ioners are scrap­

Accessories and
technical changes
Additional accessories and parts replacement
Always consult on authori zed Audi dealer before
purchasing accessories.
Audi vehicles that are constructed w ith advanced
materials like Steel/Aluminum (Hybrid construc­
tion), Aluminum (Audi Space Frame), and/or Alu­ minum/Carbon Fiber (Ultra Advanced Light
We ight Materials) are as unique as the ir drivers .
Therefore, the ava ilability of certain parts needed
for repair , restoration , or reconstruction wi ll be
restricted , or parts will be unava ilable, if the ve­
hicle is not repaired at an a uthorized Audi colli­
sion repair facility. This includes but is not limit­
ed to structura l parts which require specialized
training and equipment to restore their crash ­
worthiness back to the original NHTSA and IIHS performance.
Your vehicle incorporates the latest safety design
features ensuring a high standard of active and passive safety.
Consumer Inf ormation
This safety could be compromised by non-ap ­
proved changes to the vehicle. For this reason, if
parts have to be rep laced, please observe the fol­
lowing points when install ing additional accesso­
ries:
Approved Audi accessories and genuine Audi parts are avai lab le from authorized Aud i dea lers.
T hese dea le rs also have the necessa ry facilities,
tools and trained specialists to install the parts
and accessories properly .
A WARNING
-Using the wrong spare parts or using non-ap-
proved accessories can cause damage to the
vehicle and serious personal injury.

front area that are different from the one
installed at the factory, or add additional
li­
cense plate brackets.
- Never install accessor ies such as telephone
cradles or beverage holders on airbag covers
or w ith in the airbag deployment zones. Do­
ing so will increase the risk of injury if a ir­
bags are triggered in an accident!
