remain continuously illuminated. This se
quence will continue upon subsequent vehicle
start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminat
ed, the system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended . TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a variety of rea
sons, including the installation of replace
ment or alternate tires or wheels on the vehi
cle that prevent the TPMS from functioning
properly . Always check the TPMS malfunction
telltale after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the re
placement or alternate tires and wheels allow
the TPMS to continue to function properly.
Tire pressure indicator appears
Appl ies to vehicles: with tire pressur e monitoring sys te m
The tire pressure indicator in the instrument
cluster informs you if the tire pressure is too
low or if there is a system malfunction.
Fig. 200 Display : underinflation warning
Fig. 201 Display: System malfunction
Using the ABS sensors, the tire pressure moni
toring system compares the tire tread circum
ference and vibration characteristics of the in
dividual tires. If the pressure decreases in one
or more tires, this is indicated in the instru-
Tires and wheels 259
ment cluster with a warning symbol [I] and a
message
c::, fig. 200.
The tire pressure monitoring system must be
reset via MMI each time the pressures are ad
justed (e.g. when switching between partial
and full load pressure) or after changing or re
placing a tire on your vehicle
c::, page 260. The
TPMS indicator only monitors the tire pres
sure that you have previously stored. You can
find the recommended tire pressures for your
vehicle on the label on driver's side 8-pillar
~page 244.
Tire tread circumference and vibration charac
teristics can change and cause a tire pressure
warning if:
- the tire pressure in one or more tires is too
low,
- the tire has structural damage,
- the tire pressure was changed, wheels rotat-
ed or replaced but the TPMS was not reset
c::, page 260 .

_&. WARNING
-If th e tire pressure indicator appea rs in
the instrument cluster d isplay, one or
more of your tires is s ignificantly under
inflated. Reduce your speed immediately
and avoid any hard stee ring or bra king
maneuvers . Stop as soon as possible and
check the t ires and the ir pressures. In
flate the tire pressure to the proper pres
sure as indicated on the vehicle 's t ire
pressure label
c> page 244. Driving on a
signif icant ly under-inflated tire causes
the tire to overheat and can lead to tire
failure. Under-inflation also is likely to impair the vehicle 's handling and stop
ping ab ility .
- The driver is responsible for ma inta ining
the correct tire pressures. You must che ck the t ire pressures regula rly.
- Under certain cond itions (such as a spor
ty driving style, winter condit ions or un
paved roads), the pressure mon itor ind i
c ator may be de layed.
- Ask your author ized Audi dealer if r un
flat tires may be used on your veh icle.
Yo ur vehicle regist rat ion becomes inval id

stops working when there is an ESC/ABS
malfunction.
- Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction.
- The tire pressure monitoring system on
you r A udi was develope d using t ires with
the "AO" or "RO" identification on the
tire sidewall ~
page 251 . We recom
mend using these t ires.
Reset tire pressure monitoring system
Applies to vehicles: with tire pressure monitoring system
If the tire pressure is adjusted, wheels are ro
tated or changed, the TPMS must be reset via
MMI .
