Intelligent Technology
All wheel drive (quattro)
Applies to: vehicles with all wheel drive
In oil wheel drive, oil four wheels ore powered.
General information
In all wheel drive, the driving power is divided be
tween all four wheels. This happens automatical
ly depending on your driving behavior as well as
the current road conditions. Also see
c:> page 148, Electronic Stabilization Control
(ESC) .
The a ll wheel drive concept is designed for high
engine power. Your vehicle is exceptionally pow
erful and has excellent driving characteristics
both under normal driving conditions and on
snow and ice. Always read and follow safety pre
cautions
c:> & .
Winter tires
By using all wheel drive, your vehicle has good
forward motion with standard tires in winter con
ditions. However, using winter or all season tires
on
oil four wheels in the winter is recommended,
because this will improve the
broking effect.
Snow chains
If there are snow chain laws, snow chains must
also be used on vehicles with all wheel drive
c:> page 346, Snow chains.
Replacing tires
For vehicles with all wheel drive, only whee ls with
the same rolling circumference shou ld be used.
Avoid using tires with different tread depths
c:> page 33 7, New tires or wheels.
Offroad vehicle?
Your Audi is not an offroad vehicle -there is not
enough ground clearance. For this reason, avoid
difficult terrain.
A WARNING
-Also, in vehicles with a ll wheel drive, adapt
your driv ing style to the current road and
traff ic conditions. Do not let the increased
safety provided tempt you into taking risks,
152
because this increases the risk of an acci
dent.
- The braking ability of your vehicle is limited
to the traction of the whee ls. In this way, it
is not different from a two wheel drive vehi
cle. Do not be tempted to accelerate to a high speed when the road is slippery, be
cause this increases the risk of an accident.
- Note that on wet streets, the front wheels
can "hydroplane" if driv ing at speeds that
are too high . Unlike front wheel drive
vehicles, the engine does not rev higher sud
denly when the vehicle begins hydrop laning .
Fo r this reason, adapt your speed to the
road conditions to reduce the risk of an acci
dent.
Energy management
Your vehicle is equipped with an intelligent ener
gy management system for distributing electrici
ty. Thi s significantly improves the starting ability
and increases the vehicle battery life.
(D Tips
-If you drive short distances frequently, the
vehicle battery may not charge enough
whi le driving. As a result, convenience func
t ions for electrical equipment may be tem
porarily unavailable.
- The vehicle battery w ill gradually drain if
the vehicle is not driven for long per iods of
t ime, or if electrical equipmen t is used
when the engine is not running. To ensure
that the vehicle can still be started, the
electrical equipment will be reduced or
switched off.
