of vehicle and cleaning
- The vehicle must be free of dirt and dust
before applying polish/wax -otherwise
the paintwork may be damaged.
- Do not polish/wax the vehicle in direct
sunlight -this can damage the paint!
- Do not attempt to polish out surface rust
deposits -this can damage the paint!
- Remove cosmetics and sun lotion immedi­
ately -otherwise the paintwork may be
damaged.
- Instrument cluster
- Before cleaning, ensure that the instru-
ment cluster is switched off and cool.
- The instrument cluster and the surround­
ing trim must not be cleaned with a dry
cloth -this can scratch the surfaces!
- Do not let any liquid get between the in­
strument cluster and the trim -risk of
damage!
- Control consoles
- Do not let any liquid get inside the control
consoles -risk of damage!
- Seat belts
- Do not remove the seat belts to clean
them.
- Do not use chemical cleaning agents, cor­
rosive liquids, solvents or sharp instru­
ments to clean the seat belts or their com­
ponents -this can damage the belt web­
bing!
- If you find any damage to the belt web­
bing, the belt fittings, the belt retractor or
the buckle, have the belt in question re­
placed by a qualified workshop.
- Fabrics/leatherette/Alcantara
- Do not use leather care products, solvents,
wax polish, shoe cream, stain removers, or
any similar products on leatherette/Alcan­
tara fabrics.
- To avoid damage, stubborn stains should
be removed by a qualified workshop.
- Never use steam cleaners, brushes, hard
sponges or similar utensils.
- Do not use the seat heating* to dry the
seats.
240 -
Sharp-edged objects on clothing, such as
zip fasteners, rivets or belts, can also
damage the surface of the fabric.
- Please make sure you close any velcro fas­
teners, e.g. on your clothing, as these
could otherwise damage the upholstery.
- Natural leather
- Do not use solvents, wax polish, shoe
cream, stain removers, or any similar
products on leather fabrics.
- Sharp-edged objects on clothing, such as
zip fasteners, rivets or belts, can also
damage the surface of the fabric.
- Never use steam cleaners, brushes, hard
sponges or similar utensils.
- Do not use the seat heating* to dry the
seats.
- Avoid exposing leather to direct sunlight
for long periods, otherwise it may tend to
lose some of its colour. If the car is left for
a prolonged period in the bright sun, it is
best to cover the leather.
@ Note
- It is much easier to remove dead insects if
the car has been waxed recently.
- Regular waxing can help protect against
surface rust.
Taking the vehicle out of
service
If you wish to take your vehicle out of service for
a long period of time, contact an Audi dealer or
other qualified workshop. Here you will receive
advice on necessary measures, for example re­
garding corrosion protection, maintenance and
storage. In addition, please observe the general
notes on the battery � page 226.

quired torque using the hexagonal socket -
risk of accident!
CD CAUTION
When removing/fitting the wheel the rim may
hit and damage the brake disc. For this rea­
son, please take care and get a second person
to assist you.
Tyres with directional tread pattern
A directional tread pattern can be identified by
arrows on the sidewall that point in the direction
of rotation. Always note the direction of rotation
indicated when mounting the wheel. This is im­
portant so that these tyres can give maximum
grip and avoid excessive noise, tread wear and
aquaplaning.
If you ever have a puncture and need to fit the
spare wheel* in the wrong direction, please drive
with extra care because the tyre will not give op­
timum performance in this situation. Bear this in
mind particularly when driving on wet roads.
To benefit from the advantages of tyres with this
type of tread pattern, the defective tyre should
be replaced and refitted as soon as possible so
that all tyres again rotate in the correct direction.
After changing a wheel
.,. Fit the hubcap or wheel bolt caps back on, as
required.
.,. Put the tools and jack back in the luggage com­
partment.
.,. If the replaced wheel will not fit into the spare
wheel well, stow it safely in the luggage com­
partment ¢ page 201.
.,. Check
the tyre pressure of the fitted wheel as
soon as possible.
.,. Adjust the tyre pressures and store them via
the infotainment system.
.,. The wheel bolts should be tightened to 120
Nm. Have this checked as soon as possible with
a torque wrench. Until then, drive with caution.
.,. Have
the flat tyre replaced as quickly as possi­
ble. Mobility
