Ill co
-Do not inadvertently press the accelerator
pedal when the vehicle is stopped if a gear is
engaged. Otherwise the vehicle will start to
move immediately, even if the parking brake
is set . This could result in a crash .
- Do not press the accelerator pedal when
changing the selector lever position while
the vehicle is stationary and the engine is
running.
- Never leave your vehicle with the engine running while in gear.
If you must leave
your vehicle when the engine is running, set
the parking brake and move the selector lev
er to the P position .
- To decrease the risk of an accident, these
lector lever must be in the P position and
the parking brake must be set before open
ing the hood and working on a running en
gine. Always read and follow the applicable
warnings¢
page 244, Working in the en
gine compartment.
{[) Note
Never let the vehicle roll downhill with engine
off and the selector lever in the
N position,
because this could damage the automatic
transmission and catalytic converter.
@ Tips
- Drive select: sporty shifting characteristics
can be selected using the
Dynamic driving
mode. The Infotainment display shows 5 as
the selector lever position instead of D.
- If you accidentally select N while driving,
take your foot off the accelerator pedal im
mediately and wait for the engine to slow
down to idle before selecting Dor 5 .
- If there is a power failure, the selector lever
will not move out of the P position. The
emergency release can be used if this hap
pens. Left-hand drive vehicles
q page 69.
Driving
Selector lever lock
The selector lever lock prevents you from select
ing a gear accidentally, causing the vehicle to
roll.
Fig. 64 Selecto r lever lock
To release the selector lever lock:
.,. Switch on the ignition.
.,. Press the brake pedal
while pressing the inter-
lock button.
Automatic shift lock (ASL)
The selector lever is locked in the P and N posi
tions when the ignition is switched on. You must press the brake pedal to select another position.
You must also press the interlock button if you
are moving from the
P position. The following
message appears in the display when the selector
lever is in the P or
N position to remind the driv
er:
To select a gear, please press brake pedal and press lock button on selector lever
The automatic shift lock only functions when the
vehicle is stationary or at speeds below 1 mph
(2 km/h). At higher speeds, the lock is automati
cally deactivated in the N position.
The selector lever is not locked when shifting
quickly through N, for example from R to D. This
makes it possible to free the vehicle when it is
stuck by "rocking" it. The selector lever lock en
gages if the lever stays in the N position longer
than approximately 2 seconds when the brake
pedal is not pressed.

Starting on a hill
"' Set the parking brake .
"'With the driving gear selected, press the accel
erator pedal carefully. The parking brake will
release automatically if your safety belt is fas
tened .
Under certain circumstances, such as driving in
the mountains, it may be useful to switch tempo
rarily to the manual shift program in order to
manually adjust the gears to the driving condi
tions ¢
page 66.
When parking on a level surface, simply place the
selector lever in the P position. On inclines, acti
vate the parking brake first and then move the selector lever to the P position ¢
page 60. This
prevents the locking mechanism from being
loaded too heavily and will make it easier to
move the selector lever out of the P position .
.8, WARNING
- The vehicle can roll even when the engine is
switched off.
- Unintended vehicle movement can lead to
serious injuries.
- Never leave your vehicle with the engine
running while in gear.
If you must leave
your vehicle when the engine is running, set
the parking brake and move the selector lev
er to the P position.
- Power is still transferred to the wheels
when the engine is running at idle. To pre
vent the vehicle from "creeping", you must keep your foot on the brake when the en
gine is running and the selector lever is in
the D, Sor R position or "tiptronic" mode is
selected.
- Do not inadvertently press the accelerator
pedal when the vehicle is stationary. Other
wise the vehicle will start to move immedi ately, even if the parking brake is set. This
could result in a crash.
- Do not press the accelerator pedal when
changing the selector lever position while
the vehicle is stationary and the engine is running .
Driving
-Never engage the R or P selector level posi
tions while driving. It could cause a crash.
- Before driving down a steep slope, reduce
your speed and shift into a lower gear with "ti ptronic".
- Do not ride the brakes or press the brake
pedal too often or too long when driving
downhill. Constant braking causes the brakes to overheat and substantially re
duces braking performance, increases brak
ing distance or causes complete failure of
the brake system.
- If you must stop on an incline, always hold
the vehicle in place with the foot brake or
parking brake to prevent it from rolling
back .
- Never hold the vehicle on an incline with a
slipping clutch. The clutch opens automati
cally when it becomes too hot from the
overload. The
mJ indicator light turns on
and a message appears ¢
page 68 when
the clutch is overloaded.
- If the engine must run while you are work
ing in the engine compartment with the
hood open, make sure a gear is not engag
ed. The selector lever must be firmly in the
P position and locked in place and the park
ing brake must be set ¢
page 244. Other
wise, the vehicle could begin moving when
increasing the engine speed, even with the
parking brake set .
(!) Note
- When stopping on an incline, do not try to
hold the vehicle in place by pressing the ac
celerator pedal while a driving gear is se
lected. This can cause the automatic trans
mission to overheat and can damage it. Set
the parking brake or press the brake pedal
to prevent the vehicle from rolling.
- Allowing the vehicle to roll when the engine
is stopped and the selector lever is in the N
position will damage the automatic trans
mission because it is not lubricated under
those circumstances.

244
to moving components (such as the ribbed
be lt, alternator and rad iator fan) and from
the high voltage ignition system.
- Do not press the acce lerator pedal inadver
tently if a gear is selected when the vehicle
is stationary and the engine is running. Oth
erwise, the vehicle will start to move imme
diately and this could result in an accident .

ed when work on the fuel system or on the
electrical equipment is required.
- Do not smoke .
- Never work near open flames .
- Always have a working fire extinguisher
nearby

A WARNING
-A highly explosive mixture of gases can form
when charging batteries. Only charge the
vehicle battery in well-ventilated areas.
- A drained battery can freeze at tempera
tures around 32 °F (0 °C). A frozen or
thawed vehicle battery must not be charged
and must not be used anymore. The battery
housing can crack and battery acid can leak
out if ice forms, which increases the risk of
an explosion and chemical burns . Contact an
Checking and Filling
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi
Service Facility for more information.
- Do not connect or disconnect the charging
cable while charging because this increases
the risk of an explosion.

for the charger before charging the vehicle
battery.
Windshield washer system
Fig. 19S Engine compartment: washer fluid reservoir cap
The windshield washer reservoir{!} contains the
cleaning solution for the windshield and the
headlight washer system*¢
page 246, fig. 189.
The reservoir capacity is found in ¢ page 299.
To reduce the risk of lime scale deposits on the
spray nozzles, use clean water with low amounts
of calcium. Always add window cleaner to the wa
ter. When the outside temperatures are cold, an
ant i-freezing agent should be added to the water
so that it does not freeze.
(D Note
-The concentration of anti-freezing agent
must be adjusted to the vehicle operating
conditions in the respective cl imate. A con
centration that is too high can lead to vehi-
cle damage.
- Never add radiator anti-freeze or other addi-
tives to the washer fluid. .,.
