Driving
General information
The first 1,000 miles (1,500 km) and
afterwards
The new engine needs to be run-in during the
first 1,000 miles (1,500 km) .
For the first 600 miles (1 ,000 k ilometers ):
.. Do not use full throttle.
.. Do not drive at engine speeds that are more
than 2/3 of the maximum permitted RPM .
.. Avoid high engine speeds .
From 600 to 1,000 miles (1,000 to
1,500 kilometers):
.. Speeds ca n gradually be increased to the maxi
mum perm issible road or eng ine speed .
During and after break-in period
.. Do not rev the engine up to high speeds when it
is cold. This applies whether the transmission is
in N (Neutral) or in gear .
After the break-in peri od
.. Do not exceed maximum engine speed under
any circumstances.
.. Upshift into the next higher gear
before reach
ing the red area at the end of the tachometer
scale
opage 10.
During the first few hours of driving, the engine's
internal friction is higher than later when all the
mov ing parts have been broken in. How well this
break-in process is done depends to a cons idera
b le extent on the way the vehicle is driven dur ing
the first 1,000 miles (1,500 kilometers).
0 Note
Extremely high engine speeds are automati
cally reduced. However, these rpm limits are
programmed for an engine well run-in, not a
new engine.
@ For the sake of the environment
Do not dr ive with unnecessarily high eng ine
speeds -upshifting early saves fuel, reduces
noise and protects the environment.

· Driving through water on roads
Note the following to avoid veh icle damage when
driving through water, for example on flooded
roads:
- The water must not be any higher than the bot
tom of the vehicle body .
- Do not dr ive faster than walk ing speed .
A WARNING
After driv ing through water or mud, the brak
ing effect can be reduced due to moisture on
the brake discs and bra ke pads. A few careful
brake applications sho uld dry off the brakes .
(D Note
Vehicle components such as the eng ine,
transmission, suspension or electrical system
can be severe ly damaged by driv ing through
water .
(D Tips
- Determine the depth before driving through
water.
- Do not stop the vehicle, drive in reverse or
switch the engine off when driv ing th rough
water .
- Keep in mind that oncoming veh icles may
create waves that raise the water level and
make it too deep for your vehicle to drive
through safely.
- Avoid driving through salt wate r (corrosion).
Economical and environ
mentally-friendly driving
General
Your personal style of driving will determine the
economy of your vehicle, as well as exhaust and
noise levels.
Fuel economy, env ironmental impact, and wear
on your engine, brakes and tires largely depend
on three factors :
- your personal driving style
- operating conditions
- technical limitations

If you anticipate w hat you need to do next and
drive economically, you can easily cut your fue l
consumption by 10-15 percent. Th is sect ion will
g ive you some tips on how you can help the envi
ronment and your pocketbook.
The consumpt ion estimates as published by
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY (EPA)
and Transport Canada may not correspond to
your actual consumption on the road, which
w ill vary depend ing upon vehicle load and
speed, road and weather conditions, trip
length, e tc.
Drive smoothly and keep a lookout ahead
Vehicles use the most fuel when they are acceler
ating.
.. Avoid unnecessary accelerating and braking.
Vehicles use the most fuel when they are acceler
ating. If you anticipate what is going to happen next, you will need to brake less and, thus, accel
erate less. Let the vehicle coast whenever possi b le -for example when you see that the next traf
fic light is red.
Avoid full throttle
Driving at moderate speeds saves fuel and im
proves your mileage .
.. Try and keep well be low your car's max imum
speed .
Accelerating gently reduces fuel consumpt ion,
engine wear, and does not d isturb the env iron
ment .
Fue l consumption, exha ust emissions and eng ine
noise increase disproportionately at high speeds.
If you drive at approx imately t hree quarters of
top speed, fuel consumpt ion w ill be reduced by
one half . Never dr ive faste r than the posted
speed limit a nd weather conditions perm it.
Dri ving
Reducing unnecessary idling
Even when your car is just idling it burns up fuel .
.. Shut the eng ine off when you are not driving
the vehicle .
.. Do not warm up the vehicle by lett ing the en-
gine run at idle.
It is efficient to switch off the engine when stop
ped at ra ilroad crossings and long red lights.
Turning the engine off for just 30-40 seconds
saves more fuel than is b urned by starti ng the
engine aga in .
It takes a long t ime for the engine to warm up
fully when it is ru nning at idle. However, wear
and noxious emissions are espec ia lly hig h when
t h e engine is warming up. So you should d rive
away as soon as you sta rt the eng ine and avoid
run ning at high rpms w hile the eng ine is s till
warmi ng up .
@ Note
Do no t leave eng ine idl ing una ttended afte r
s ta rtin g.
If war ning lig hts s hou ld come on to
i ndica te imprope r operat ion, they would go
u nheede d. Extended idling also produces
heat, which could result in overheat ing or oth
er damage to the ve hicle or other property.
Regular maintenance
A badly tuned engine unnecessarily wastes a lot
of fuel.
.. Have your ve hicle serviced at reg ular in tervals.
B y havi ng your ve hicle regu la rly se rv iced by an
Audi dealer he lps to ensu re that it ru ns p rope rly
and economically. The condi tion of your veh icle
not only affects its sa fety and ability to ho ld i ts
val ue, it also affects
fuel consumption.
Check your oil each time you fill your tank.
The amou nt of oi l used is re lated to engine load
and speed.
It is normal for the oil consumption of a new en
gine to reach its lowest value after a certai n m ile-
age has been dr iven. ...,
71
Page 74 of 282

Driving
You must drive your vehicle about 3,000 miles (5,000 kilometers) before you can properly as
sess oil consumption.
This also applies to fuel consumption and engine
output.
@ Note
- Have your vehicle maintained properly and
in accordance w ith the service recommenda
tions in your Warranty
& Maintenance book
let. Lack of proper maintenance as well as
improper use of the vehicle will impair the
function of the emission control system and
could lead to damage.
- Do not alter or remove any component of the Emission Control System unless approved by the manufacturer.
- Do not alter or remove any device, such as heat shields, switches, ignition wires,
valves, which are designed to protect your
vehicle's Emission Control System and other important vehicle components.
Fewer short trips
Fuel consumption will always be relatively high
on short trips.
.,. Try to avoid driving short distances with a cold
engine.
The eng ine and catalytic converter have to reach
their optimal
operating temperature to reduce
fuel consumption and noxious emissions effec
tively .
Just after starting, a cold engine in a mid-size car only achieves a fuel economy of 6-8 miles per
gallon (30-40 l/100 km). After about a half a mile, fuel economy climbs to 12 mpg (20
l/
100 km) . After about 2.5 miles (4 km), the en
gine is at its proper operating temperature and
fuel economy has reached a normal level. So you
can see that you should avoid short trips whenev
er possible.
The
outside temperature is also critical in this re
gard. Your car consumes more fuel in the winter
than in the summer.

A WARNING
Incorrect use of the steering wheel adjust
ment and an incorrect seating position can
cause serious injuries.
- Only adjust the steering column when the
vehicle is stationary so that you do not lose
control of the vehicle.
-
-Adjust the driver's seat or steer ing wheel so
that there is at least 10 inches (25 cm) dis
tance between your chest and the steering
wheel ¢
page 131, fig. 113. If you do not
maintain this distance, the airbag system
will not be able to provide its full protection
¢page 131, fig. 113.
-If your physical characteristics prevent you
from sitting at least 10 inches (25 cm) or
more away from the steering wheel, see if
your authorized Audi dealer or authorized
Audi Service Facility can provide adapters that will help.
- If your face is level with the steering wheel,
the airbag does not provide as much protec
tion during a collision . Always make sure
that the steering wheel is level with your
chest .
Page 75 of 282

....,
N
-Always hold the steering wheel with your
hands in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi
tions to reduce the risk of injury if the airbag
deploys .
- Never hold the steer ing wheel in the 12
o'clock position or w ith both hands on the
rim or the center of the steering wheel.
Holding the stee ring wheel incorrectly sig
nificantly increases the risk of injury to the
hands, arms and head if the airbag deploys.
