A WARNING
Do not use water-repellent coatings on the
windscreen. In bad visibility conditions such
as light rain, low sun or when driving at night
these coatings can cause increased dazzle,
which is a serious safety hazard. Such coat­
ings can also cause the wiper blades to jud­
der.
CD CAUTION
- Headlights/rear lights
- Never clean the headlights/rear lights
with a dry cloth or sponge.
- Do not use cleaning agents containing al­
cohol. This could cause the glass to crack!
-Wheels
- Do not use paint polish or other abrasive
agents. -
If the protective paint coating on the
wheel rim is scratched or damaged by
stone chips etc., the damaged area should
be touched up without delay.
-Windows
- Remove snow and ice from windows and
exterior mirrors with a
plastic
scraper on­
ly. To avoid scratches, the scraper should
only be pushed in one direction and not
moved to and fro.
- Never use warm or hot water to remove
snow and ice from windows and mirrors.
Th is could cause the glass to crack!
- To avoid damaging the heating element,
do not put stickers on the inner side of the
rear window.
- Ornamental trim/mouldings
- Do not use chrome cleaning agents .

- Keep sparks, flame and lighted cigarettes
away from batteries: the gases given off can
cause an explosion.
- If jump-starting another vehicle, position
the jump Leads in such a way that they can­
not come into contact with any moving
parts in the engine compartment of the oth­
er vehicle.
CD CAUTION
Please note that the above method of con­
necting the Leads is intended for jump-start­
ing your vehicle. If jump-starting another ve­
hicle, you should not connect the negative
lead (-) to the negative terminal of the dis­
charged battery, but directly to the engine
block or a solid metal part bolted to the en­
gin e block. If the battery of the other vehicle
does not have a gas vent, there is a risk that a
mixture of oxygen and hydrogen gas can accu­
mulate and cause an explosion.
@ Note
- The battery is vented to the outside to pre­
vent gases entering the vehicle's interior.
- Connect the battery clamps so they have
good metal-to-metal contact with the bat­
tery terminals.
Tow-starting / towing
away
General notes
Some experience is required to tow or tow-start a
vehicle, especially when using a tow-rope. Both
drivers should be familiar with the technique re­
quired for towing. Inexperienced drivers should
not attempt to tow-start or tow away another ve­
hicle.
Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle and
take care to avoid jerking the tow-rope. When
towing off-road, there is always a risk that the
anchorage points may be overloaded.
Tow-bar / tow-rope
It is easier and safer to tow the vehicle with a
tow-bar. You should only use a tow-rope if you do
250 not
have a tow-bar. It is advisable to use a tow­
rope made of elastic synthetic fibre or similarly
elastic material.
Notes on towing vehicles
The vehicle can be towed with a tow-bar or tow­
rope. When the engine is not running, the gear­
box will not be adequately Lubricated if the fol­
lowing speed/distance restrictions are not ob­
served:
- The vehicle must not be towed faster than
SO km/h.
- The vehicle must not be towed further than
50km.
Additi onal notes on towing by breakdown
truck
If one of the axles has to be raised in order to tow
the vehicle, please refer to the following table to
determine the appropriate axle for your gearbox/
drive combination:
Front-wheel IFour-wheel
drive drive
Manual Front
or rear Front or rear
gearbox axle
axle
Automatic gearbox Front
axle Front axle
Four-wheel drive: If the vehicle is to be towed
with one of the axles raised, the ignition must be
switched off; otherwise the drive train can be
damaged.
Notes on tow-starting
Automatic gearbox: For technical reasons, your
vehicle must not be tow-started.
Manual gearbox: As a general rule, tow-starting
is not recommended. If the engine will not start,
it is best to try starting it using the battery of an­
other vehicle ¢ page 248 before attempting to
tow start. If this is not possible, you can try to
push-star t or tow-start the vehicle ¢ page 251,
Tow-starting. ...,

differ from the test values, depending in particu­

tions, environmental factors and the condition of

replacement parts and
repairs
It is best to consult an authorised Audi dealer
before purchasing accessories and replacement
parts or having any repairs carried out.
Your car is designed to offer a high standard of
active and passive safety. For this reason, we rec­
om mend that you ask your Audi dealer for advice
before fitting accessories or replacement parts.
This is also very important if body repairs are re­
quired. Audi dealers have full information on the
manufacturer-approved repair methods and can
recommend suitable accessories and spare parts.
They can also give advice regarding official re­
quirements for the vehicle.
We recommend you to use only Audi accessories
and Audi Genuine Parts. Audi has tested these
products for suitability, reliability and safety.
Audi dealers have the necessary experience and
facilities to ensure that the parts are installed
properly.
Although the market is constantly scrutinised,
Audi cannot judge or assume responsibility for
the reliability, safety and suitability of non-genu­
ine products -even though in some instances,
these parts may have been approved by an offi­
cially recognised technical testing authority or
accompanied by an official approval certificate.
Any retro-fitted equipment which has a direct ef­
fect on the vehicle and/or the way it is driven
(e.g. cruise control system or electronically-con­
trolled suspension) must be approved for use in
your vehicle and bear thee mark (the European
Union's approval symbol).
If any additional electrical components are fit­
ted which do not serve to control the vehicle it­
self (for instance a refrigerator box, laptop or
ventilator fan, etc.), these must bear the CE mark
(manufacturer conformity declaration in the Eu­
ropean Union).

WARNING
Never attach accessories (such as cup holders
or telephone brackets) to the surfaces cover­
ing the airbag units or the areas around the
airbags: this could cause injury if the airbag is
triggered.
({D Note
- Since the Audi TT has an aluminium body,
all ser vicing, repairs or other work on the
car body must be carried out by an Audi
workshop or a qualified workshop working
to the specifications of the Audi factory.
This ensures that the necessary repairs or
servicing are performed properly and that
only Audi Genuine Parts are installed on
your vehicle. Use of non-genuine replace­
ment parts, equipment or accessories on
your Audi TI, or repair of the vehicle by un­
qualified persons, may result in serious
damage to your car (possibly including cor­
rosion).
- The manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage which occurs as a result of failure
to comply with these stipulations, and such
damage is not covered under warranty.
Modifi cations
Modifications must always be carried out accord­
ing to our specifications.
Unauthorised modifications to the electronic
components or software in the vehicle may cause
malfunctioning. Due to the way the electronic
components are linked together in networks, oth­
er systems may be affected by the faults. This can
seriously impair safety, lead to excessive wear of
components, and also invalidate the type appro­
val for your vehicle.
You will appreciate that your Audi dealer cannot
be held liable for any damage caused by modifi­
cations and/or work performed incorrectly.
We recommend that all work should be per­
formed by an Audi workshop using Audi Genuine
