-There is no vehicle stabilization when ESC/
ASR are switched off.
(D Tips
-When the cruise control system is switched
on, ESC/ ASR cannot be switched off or sport
mode cannot
be switched on.
- Malfunctions in the rear spoiler
or the Audi
magnetic ride may make
it impossible to
switch the ESC/ ASR off or to switch sport
mode on.
Brakes
New brake pads
New brake pads do not achieve their full braking
effect during the first 250 mi (400 km) . They
must be "broken in" first. However, you can com­
pensate
for the slightly reduced braking force by
pressing
firmly on the brake pedal. Avoid heavy
braking during the break-in period.
Wear
Brake pad wear depends largely on the way the
vehicle is driven and on operating conditions.
This is especially true
if you are driving frequently
in
the city and on curves or with a sporty driving
style.
Operating noise
Noises may occur when braking depending on the
speed, braking force and outside conditions such
as temperature and humidity.
Effect of water and road salt
In certain situations, for example after driving
through water, in heavy
rain, after overnight con­
densation
or after washing your car, the braking
effect can be reduced by moisture or ice on the
brake rotors and brake pads. The brakes
must be
"dried" first with a few careful brake applica­
tions.
At higher speeds and with the windshield wipers
turned
on, the brake pads press against the brake
rotors
for a short amount of time. This action
which is
not felt by the driver happens at regular
Intelligent Technology
intervals and facilitates a better reaction time for
the brakes in wet weather.
T
he braking effect can also be reduced if you are
driving on salted roads and you do
not apply the
brakes for Long periods of time. The Layer of salt
on the brake rotors and pads must be worn off
first when the brakes are applied.
Corrosion
Leaving the vehicle parked for Long periods of
time, Low mileage and avoiding heavy braking
can contribute
to corrosion on the brake rotors
and
dirty brake pads.
If you usually avoid heavy braking or ifthere is
corrosion present, occasiona l heavy braking
at
high speeds is recommended to clean the brake
rotors and
pads¢.&..
Brake system malfunction
if you notice that the brake pedal travel has sud­
denly gotten Larger, then a brake circuit may have
failed. Drive
to an authorized Audi dealer or au­
thorized Audi Service Facility immediately to have
the problem corrected. On the way there, drive
with reduced speed and keep in mind that a Long
braking distance and increased pressure on the
brake pedal will be necessary.
Low brake fluid level
When the brake fluid Level is Low, malfunctions in
the brake system may occur. The brake fluid Level
is electronically monitored.
Brake booster
The brake booster amplifies the pressure you ap­
ply to the brake pedal. It only works when the en­
gine is running.
A WARNING
-New brake pads do not achieve their full
braking effect during the first 250 mi
(400 km). They must be "broken in" first.
However, you
can compensate for the
slightly reduced braking force by pressing
firmly on the brake pedal. Avoid heavy brak-
ing during
the break-in period. ~

-Only apply the brakes for the purpose of
cleaning the brake system when road and
traffic conditions permit. You must not en­
danger other road users. This increases the
risk of an accident.
-
On steep slopes, reduce the speed and se­
lect a lower gear or lower selector lever po­
sition . Drive
as little as possible while press­
ing the brake pedal and avoid putting your
left foot on the brake pedal while driving.
This could
cause the brakes to overheat and
impair the efficiency of the brakes.
-
Do not let the brakes "grind" by always
keeping
your foot on the brake pedal. This
can
cause the brakes to over heat, increase
wear and increase brak ing distance u nneces ­
sari ly.
-
Certa in weather and operating cond it io ns
such as driving through water, driving in
heavy rain or driving after washing your ve­
hicle
can impair the effectiveness of the
brakes. In the winter, ice may build up on
the brake pads, rotors and drums. Check
these components by braking carefully. Ap­
plying
the brakes carefully several times
dries the brakes and removes ice build-up.
- The efficiency
of the brakes can also be im­
paired by driving
for long stretches on roads
covered with salt without using the brakes.
You can remove salt deposits from the
brake rotors and pads by carefully applying
the brakes several times.
-If the front spoiler is damaged or you install
another spoiler, make sure the front wheel
brakes are ventilated properly. Otherwise,
the brake system could overheat, wh ic h re ­
duces
thei r effectiveness.
- Failure
of a brake circuit impairs braking
performance, which increases braking dis­
tance.
Avoid driving the vehicle and have it
towed it to the nearest authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility.
- Never
let the vehicle roll while the engine is
stopped because this increases the risk of an
accident.
-
If the brake booster is not working, you will
have
to press much harder on the brake
90
pedal to compensate for the lack of the
booster.
@ Note
-Never let the brakes "rub" by pressing the
pedal lightly when braking is not really nec­
essary. This
causes the brakes to overheat
and increases braking distance and causes
wear.
- Before driving a long
distance on a steep
slope, decrease your speed and select a low­
er driving gear. This makes use of the en­
gine braking effect and relieves the brakes.
If you need to brake additionally, brake in
interva ls and not continuously.
(D Tips
-Ifthe brake booster is not work ing, you
must press the brake pedal w ith much more
force than normal.
-
If you retrofit your vehicle with a front spoil­
er wheel covers or similar items, make sure '
that the air flow to the front wheels is not
interrupted. Otherwise the brake system
can become too hot.
Electromechanical
steering
The electromechanical steering supports the
driver's steering movements.
Power steering adapts electronically based on
the vehicle speed.
Indicator lights and messages
• Steering: malfunction! Please stop vehicle
If this indicator light turns on and stays on and
this message appears, the power steering may
have failed.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location as soon as pos­
sible.
Do not continue driving. See an authorized
Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service Facility for
assistance.

If the indicator light turns on, the steering wheel
may be more difficult to move or more sensitive
than usual. The steering wheel may also be at an
angle when driving straight.
Drive slow ly to an authorized Audi dealer or au­
thorized Audi Service Facility to have the mal­
function corrected.
@ Tips
If the. or '~ij indicator light only stays on
for a short time, you may continue driving.
ALL wheel drive (quattro)
In all wheel drive, all 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. c::> page 87, Electron­
ic
stabilization control (ESC).
The all 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,
in winter we recommend using
winter or all season tires on all four wheels, be­
cause 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 265, Snow chains.
Replacing tires
For vehicles with all wheel drive, only wheels with
the same rolling circumference should be used.
Avoid
wheels with different tread depths
c::> page 257, New tires or wheels.
Intelligent Technology
Offroad vehicle?
Your Audi is not an offroad vehicle -there is not
enough ground clearance. For this reason, avoid
difficult
terrain.
&,,!!_ARNING
-I
-Also, in vehicles with all wheel drive, adapt
your driving style to the current road and
traffic conditions. Do not let the increased
safety provided tempt you into taking risks,
because this increases the risk of an acc i­
dent.
- The braking ability
of your vehicle is limited
to the traction of the wheels. In this way, it
is not different from a two wheel drive vehi­
cle.
Do not be tempted to accelerate to a
h
igh speed when the road is slippery this in­
creases the risk of an accident.
- Note
that on wet streets, the front wheels
can "hydrop lane" if driving at speeds that
are too high. Unlike front wheel drive
veh icl
es, the engine does not rev higher sud­
denly when the vehicle begins hydroplaning .
For
this reason, pay attention to the road
conditions
regard less of your speed.
Rear spoiler
The extendoble rear spoiler increases driving sta­
bility.
Fig. 89 Center console: button for the rear spoiler
The rear spoiler retracts and extends. It can be
activated in various operating modes (manual
mode or automatic mode) .

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Intelligent Technology
Automatic mode (normal operation)
-Automatic extension: the rear spoiler will auto­
matically extend when speeds exceed approxi­
mately 75 mph (120 km/h)
-Automatic retraction: the rear spoiler will auto­
matically retract when speeds decrease to un­
der approximately 50 mph (80 km/h).
Manual mode
-Extending manually: briefly tap the~ fig. 89
button to fully extend the rear spoiler.
- Retracting manually:
when driving at speeds
below approximately 10 mph (20 km/h), press
and hold the button to retract the rear spoiler.
When at speeds between 10 mph (20 km/h)
and 75 mph (120 km/h), the rear spoiler will
completely retract when you tap the button.
Indicator lights
Ii) I. Rear spoiler: malfunction!
The
rear spoiler may not have extended due to a
malfunction.
This could change the veh icle's driv­
ing characteristics
at high speeds. Do not drive
faster than 85 mph (140 km/h). Drive to an au ­
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service
Facility
immediately to have the malfunction cor­
rected. The color
of the indicator light depends
on the vehicle speed.
..&. WARNING
-
Driving at higher speeds without the rear
spoiler deployed can impair handling charac­
teristics, making
the vehicle harder to con­
trol.
- Always
make sure that the spoiler is de­
ployed when driving at
speeds ove r 85 mph
(140 km/h). If the rear spoiler warning/indi­
cator light in the instrument cluster comes
on, the rear spoiler may not have deployed.
- Never drive
at speeds higher than 85 mph
(140 km/h) ifthe spoiler is not deployed.
Have
the spoiler inspected as soon as possi ­
ble by an
authorized Audi dealer or qualified
workshop.
- Always obey
speed limits and other traffic
laws.
92
..&. WARNING
Improper operation of the rear spoiler can
cause crushing injuries.
-Always make sure that nobody, especially
children, is
in the way when the rear spoiler
is deployed or retracted.
«J:) Note
-Never push on the vehicle on the rear spoil­
er. This could
cause damage.
- To
prevent damage to the rear spoiler do
not lean or place anything on it.
-
-Only operate the rear spoiler manually when
the luggage compartment lid is close and
the rear spoiler moving parts are not
blocked. Otherwise, damage could occur.
(D Tips
Clean the rear spoiler compartment every 2 to
3 months. To function correctly, the rear
spoiler must be free of ice, snow and leaves.
Energy management
The starting ability is optimized
The energy management system manages the
electrical energy distribution
and optimizes the
availability
of electrical energy for starting the
engine.
When a vehicle with a conventiona l energy sys­
tem is not driven for a long time, the battery is
drained by equipment (for example the immobil­
izer). In
certain circumstances, there could may
not be enough energy to start the engine.
Your vehicle
is equipped with an intelligent ener­
gy
management system for distributing electrici­
ty. T his sign ificant
ly improves the starting ability
and increases the battery life.
The
energy management system Is made up of
battery diagnosis, Idling current management
and dynamic energy management.
Battery diagnosis
The battery diagnosis determines the battery
charge level. The sensors determine the battery Ill>

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine voltage, the battery current, and the battery
temperature. The current charge level and the
performance of the battery are determined based
on this.
Idling current management
The idling cur
rent management decreases the
energy used w hile parked. With the engine
switched off, it manages the energy distribution
to the different electrical components. Date from
battery diagnosis is taken into account for this.
Depending
on the battery charge level, electrical
equipment is switched off one item after the oth­
er, to prevent the battery from draining and to
retain the starting ability.
Dynamic energy manage
ment
While driving, dynamic energy management dis­
tributes the appropriate amount of energy to the
electrical equipment. It controls the battery
charge level so that more energy is not used then
is being generated in order to maintain an opti­
mal battery charge level.
(!) Tips
-Energy management cannot overcome the
laws of physics. Note that the charge level
and
length of the battery life are limited.
-
When the starting ability is jeopardized, the
r-1 indicator light turns on ~page 13.
What you should know
Maintaining the starting ability is the highest
priority.
A lot of stress is placed on the battery when driv­
ing
short distances, in traffic, and at cold times
of the year. A lot of energy is used but little is
generated. It is also critical when the engine is
not running but electrical equipment is switched
on . In this case, energy is used but none is gener­
ated.
In situations like this, energy management will
actively regu l
ated the distribution of energy.
Intelligent T echnology
Long periods without use
If you do not drive your vehicle for several days or
weeks, electrical consumers are gradually scaled
back
or switched off. This reduces energy use and
ensures the vehicle will be able to start after long
periods
of time. Some convenience functions
such
as opening with the remote control key may
not be available. These convenience functions
will be available again once you switch
the igni­
tion on and start the engine.
With the engine switched off
The battery will drain if you use Infotainment
functions such as listening to the radio while the
engine is switched off.
The vehicle's
ability to start may be impa ired by
the energy use, a message will appear in the In­
fotainment system display. The message indi­
cates that the system will switch off automatical­
ly soon. If you would like to continue using the
functions, you must start the engine.
With the engine running
Although electrical
energy is generated while
driv ing,
the battery can drain. This can happen
when little energy is generated, and much is used
and the charge level of the battery is not optimal.
To
restore the balance of energy, components
that require large amounts of energy are tempo­
rarily scaled back or switched off. Heating sys­
tems in particular require a great deal of energy.
If you notice, for example, that the seat heating*
or rear window defroster is not working, then it
has been temporarily re d uced or sw itched off.
T
hese systems are availab le again as soon as the
energy balance has been restored.
In addition, you may notice that the idle speed
has slightly increased. That is normal and no
cause for concern. Due to the increased idling
speed, the additional required energy will be
generated and the battery will be charged.

Information about data
recorded by vehicle
control modules
Your vehicle is not equipped with a crash data re­
corder. This device is installed by some vehicle
manufacturers to record data about crashes so
that it can be analyzed later. Crash data record­
ers are also called "Event Data Recorders (EDR)".
In some legal jurisdictions, it is not permitted to
access or download data reco rded by pre-instal­
led crash
data recorders in order to evaluate a
crash without clear consent of the vehicle owner.
Your vehicle is not equipped with a crash data re­
corder. However it does contain a variety of elec­
tronic control modules for various vehicle sys­
tems such as engine function, exhaust treatment
or airbags and safety belts.
These electronic control modules record vehicle
data during normal driving for diagnosis and re­
pair
purposes. The recording capability of the
electronic control modules is limited to data only
·no sound is recorded. If the control module de·
tects a system malfunction or other change in
status, a very limited amount of data is recorded
for an extremely small period of time. Data that
is recorded in such a case may include vehicle
speed, driving direction, the load on the brakes
and head restraints and performance in the event
of an accident or other change in status. The
stored data can only be read or downloaded with
specia l devices .
