Lifting the vehicle
Important safety precautions
Be aware of the following hazards before lifting the vehicle with a
workshop hoist or floor jack:
• The vehicle should never be lifted or jacked up from underneath
the engine oil pan, the transmission housing, the front or rear axle
or the body side members. This could lead to serious damage.
• Use lifting equipment with padded contact surfaces to avoid
damage to the underbody or chassis frame.
• Alternatively, cover the contact surfaces on workshop hoist or
floor jack with rubber pads before lifting .
• Before driving over a workshop hoist, check that the vehicle
weight does not exceed the permissible lifting capacity of the hoist .
• Before driving over a workshop hoist, ensure that there is suffi
cient clearance between the hoist and low parts of the vehicle .
& WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious injury and vehicle damage:
• Always lift the vehicle only at the special workshop hoist and
floor jack lift points illustrated
=> fig. 202 and => fig. 203 .
• Failure to lift the vehicle at these points could cause the vehicle
to tilt or fall from a lift if there is a change in vehicle weight distri
bution and balance. This might happen, for example, when heavy
components such as the engine block or transmission are
removed .
• When removing such heavy components, anchor vehicle to
hoist or add corresponding weights to maintain the center of
gravity . Otherwise , the vehicle might tilt or slip off the hoist,
causing serious personal injury. •
Lifting with workshop hoist and with floor
jack
The vehicle may only be lifted at the lifting points illus
trated.

Controls and equip ment Safety first Vehicle operation
& WARNING
•
The actual Gross Axle Weight Rating at the front and rear axles
should not exceed the permissible weights, and their combination
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.
• Exceeding permissible weight ratings can result in vehicle
damage, accidents and personal injury.
0 Note
• The vehicle capacity weight figures apply when the load is
distributed evenly in the vehicle (passengers and luggage). When
transporting a heavy load in the luggage compartment, carry the
load as near to the rear axle as possible so that the vehicle's
handling is not impaired.
• Do not exceed the maximum permissible axle loads or the
maximum gross vehicle weight. Always remember that the vehicle's
handling will be affected by the extra load. Therefore, adjust your
speed accordingly.
• Always observe local regulations.•
Dimensions
The specifications refer to the basic model. Differences may occur
depending on the model type and options ordered, for example, tire
sizes.
0 Note
When driving up steep ramps, on rough roads, over curbs, etc. it is
important to remember that some parts of your vehicle, such as
spoilers or exhaust system components, may be close to the
ground. Be careful not to damage them. •

Maintenance
General
Your vehicle has been designed to help keep maintenance require
ments to a minimum.
However, a certain amount of regular maintenance is still necessary
to assure your vehicle's safety, economy and reliability.
For detailed vehicle maintenance consult your Warranty
& Mainte
nance booklet.
Under difficult operating conditions, for example at extremely low
outside temperatures, in very dusty regions, when towing a trailer
very frequently, etc., some service work should be performed
between the intervals specified. This applies particularly to:
• oil changes, and
• cleaning or replacing the air filter.
ci> For the sake of the environment
By regularly maintaining your vehicle, you help make sure that emis
sion standards are maintained, thus minimizing adverse effects on
the environment. •
Important considerations for you and your
vehicle
The increasing use of electronics, sophisticated fuel injection and
emission control systems, and the generally increasing technical
complexity of today's automobiles, have steadily reduced the scope
of maintenance and repairs which can be carried out by vehicle
owners.
Also, safety and environmental concerns place very strict
limits on the nature of repairs and adjustments to engine and trans
mission parts which an owner can perform.
Controls and equip
ment Safety first Vehicle operation
Maintenance, adjustments and repairs usually require special tools,
testing devices and other equipment available to specially trained
workshop personnel in order to assure proper performance, reli ability and safety of the vehicle and its many systems.
Improper maintenance, adjustments and repairs can impair the
operation and reliability of your vehicle and even void your vehicle
warranty. Therefore, proof of servicing in accordance with the main tenance schedule may be a condition for upholding a possible
warranty claim made within the warranty period.
Above all, operational safety can be adversely affected, creating unnecessary risks for you and your passengers.
If in doubt about any servicing, have it done by your authorized Audi
dealer or any other properly equipped and qualified workshop. We
strongly urge you to give your authorized Audi dealer the opportu
nity to perform all scheduled maintenance and necessary repairs.
Your dealer has the facilities, original parts and trained specialists
to keep your vehicle running properly .
Performing limited maintenance yourself
The following pages describe a limited number of procedures which
can be performed on your vehicle with ordinary tools, should the
need arise and trained personnel be unavailable. Before performing
any of these procedures, always thoroughly read all of the appli
cable text and carefully follow the instructions given. Always rigor
ously observe the
WARNINGS provided.
Before you check anything in the engine compartment, always read
and heed all WARNINGS=>
& and=> & in "Working in the engine
compartment" on
page 224.
& WARNING
• Serious personal injury may occur as a result of improperly
performed maintenance, adjustments or repairs.

your vehicle's eng ine and body (such as corrosion) and adversely
affect your vehicle's warranty .
• If emergency repairs must be performed elsewhere, have the
vehicle examined by an authorized Audi dea lership as soon as
poss ible.

due to failure to comply with these stipu lations .•
Installing /replacing a sound system
If you wish to install a radio or replace the factory installed radio ,
please note the following :
Controls and equip
ment Safety first Vehicle operation
The factory insta
lled radio connectors are designed for genuine
Audi radios. When install ing a different radio, difficu lties could arise
such as :
- the radio may not fit into the space provided
- the electrical connections may not be compatible
- different connector terminals may be needed .
Therefore, we recommend that you have your authorized Audi dea ler instal l or replace the radio.
They are the most fami liar with the technical features of your
vehic le . They also offer Genuine Audi Radios with the necessary
installa tion components and instructions .
& WARNING
Improperly in stall ing a r adio could cau se a s hort circ uit and an

Technical Modifications
Our guidelines must be complied with when technical
mo difications are made.
Always consult an authorized Audi dea ler b efore starting work on
any modifications.
This will help ensure that vehic le function, perfo rmance and safe ty
are not impaired=> &.
Attempting to work on electronic components and the software used with them can cause malfunctions. Because of the way elec
tronic components are interconnected with each other, such
malfunctions can also have an adverse affect on other systems that
are not directly involved . This means that you risk both a substantial
reduction in the operat ional safety of your vehicle and an increased
wear of vehicle par ts
