- The d rive r is respons ib le for maintaining
the co rrect tire pressures. You must
check the tire pressures regularly.
- Unde r ce rtain conditions (such as a spo r
ty driving style, winter conditions or u n
p aved roads), the pressu re monitor indi
ca tor may be delayed.
- Ask you r authorized Aud i dea le r i f run
f lat tires may be used on your vehicle.
Your vehicle registration becomes invalid
if you use these t ires when not perm it
ted. Damage to your vehicle or accidents
could a lso result.
- If you switch between standard and run
flat tires, an autho rized Audi dealer o r
qualified workshop must reprogram the
contro l modu le.
(D Tips
- The tire pressure monitor ing system
stops work ing when there is an ESP/ABS
ma lfunction.
- Us ing snow c hains may res ult in a system

216 Tires and wheels
Run-flat tires have special characteristics
and requirements, that are very different
from conventiona l tires. Run-flat tires re
quire special rims for run-flat use and can
not be used on conventional wheel rims.
(D Tips
- If you are not able to continue driving
with run-flat tires, please seek professio
nal assistance .
- Please contact your authorized Audi
dealer or Audi of America, Inc. if you
have questions about tires and r ims.
Driving with run-flat tires
App lies to vehicles: with Run -flat tires
Handling characteristics change when tire
pressure is low .
Driving on tires with low tire pressure changes
the way a vehicle handles, particularly when
cornering and braking . The handling charac
teristics of run-flat tires do not seem to
change a lot even when dr iving on low pres
sure or in the run-flat mode . Nevertheless you
must still take special precautions when oper
ating a vehicle on run-flat tires when tire pres
sure is low or the tire(s) is fla t:
"'The Electronic Stabilization Program (ESP)
must be switched on.
> Never drive faste r than 50 mph (80 km/h)
¢,& .
"'Plan ahead when driving and anticipate
what you will have to do considering traffic
and road conditions up ahead.
"' Accelerate carefully.
"' Avoid unnecessary and sudden steer ing and
braking maneuvers .
"' Reduce your speed in plenty of time before
i ntersections, curves and other places where
you may have to react quickly.
Please see:
¢ page 215, When it is not possi
ble to continue driving, even with run-flat
tires?
Handling characteristics change when
driving with low air pressure or with flat
tires even with special run-flat tires
A low pressure or flat front tire affects vehicle
handling characterist ics by pulling the vehicle
slightly to the side whe re the tire is mounted
and reduces braking performance .
A low pressure or flat
rear tire also affects
driving characteristics by pulling to the s ide
where the tire is mounted and also reduces
braking performance . The effect on vehicle
handling is most noticeable when driving
aro und curves .
A WARNING
Changed vehicle hand ling characteristics
when driving in the run-flat mode can
cause loss of vehicle control, a crash and
serious personal injury.
- Driving on special run-flat tires in the
run-flat mode will change vehicle han
dling characterist ics dur ing braking,
when cornering and under heavy acceler
ation .
- Never drive faster than the max imum
rated speed of 50 mph (80 km/h) when
driving in the run-flat mode.
- Always adjust vehicle speed to traff ic,
road and weather conditions and drive
slower than the maximum rated speed if
necessary weathe r and road cond it ion s
are taken into account.
- Always obey speed limits and other traf
f ic laws.
(D Note
We always recommend driving with even
more care when using these special tires in
the run-flat mode. Always avoid sudden
maneuve rs.

Bulbs
Replacing light bulbs
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace burned
out bulbs for you .
It is becoming increasingly more and more
difficult to replace vehicle light bulbs since in
many cases, other parts of the car must first
be removed before you are able to get to the
bulb . This applies especially to the light bulbs
in the front of your car which you can only
reach through the engine compartment.
Sheet metal and bulb holders can have sharp
edges that can cause ser ious cuts, and parts
must be correctly taken apart and then prop
e rly put back together to help prevent break
age of parts and long term damage from wa
ter that can enter housings that have not been
properly resealed.
For your safety, we recommend that you have
your authorized Audi dealer replace any bulbs
for you, since your dealer has the proper tools,
the correct bulbs and the expertise.
Gas discha rge lamps (Xenon lights}*:
Due to the high electrical voltage, have the
bulbs replaced by a qualified technician.
H eadlights with Xenon light can be identified
by the high voltage sticker.
A WARNING
Contact with high-voltage components of
the electrical system and improper re
placement of gas discharge (Xenon) head
light bulbs can cause serious personal in
jury and death.
- Xenon bulbs are pressurized and can ex
plode when being changed. -
Changing Xenon lamps requires the spe
cial tra ining, instructions and equip
ment.
- Only an authorized Audi dealer or other
qualified workshop should change the
bulbs in gas discharge lamps.
A WARNING
=
There are parts with sharp edges on the
openings and on the bulb holders that can
cause ser ious cuts.
- If you are uncertain about what to do,
have the work performed by an author
ized Audi dealer or other qualified work
shop. Serious personal injury may result
from improperly performed work.
@ Tips
- If you must replace the light bulbs your
self, a lways remember that the engine
compartment of any vehicle is a hazard
ous area to work in. A lways read and
heed all WARNINGS
c:::> page 172, Engine
compartment
c::> &. .
-It is best to ask your authorized Audi
dealer whenever yo u need to change a
bulb .

Emergency situations
General
This chapter is intended for trained emer
gency crews and working personnel who
have the necessary tools and equipment to
perform these operations.
Starting by pushing or
towing
(D Note
Vehicles with an automatic transmission
cannot be started by pushing or towing .
Starting with jumper
cables
If necessary, the engine can be started by
connecting it to the battery of another vehi
cle.
If the engine should fail to start because of a
discharged or weak battery, the battery can be
connected to the battery of
another vehicle,
using a
pair of jumper cables to start the en
gine.
Jumper cables
Use only jumper cables of sufficiently
largec ross section to safely carry the starter
current. Refer to the manufacturer's specifica
tions.
Use only jumper cables which have
insulated
termina l clamps and are properly marked for
distinction :
plus(+) cable in most cases colored red
minus(-) cable
i n most cases colored black.
_& WARNING
Batteries contain electricity, ac id, and gas.
Any of these can cause very serious or fatal
injury. Follow the instructions below for
safe handling of your vehicle's battery.
- Always shield you r eyes and avoid lean
ing over the battery whenever possible.
Emergency situations 231
-A discharged battery can already freeze
at temperatures just below 32 °F (0 °C).
Before connecting a jumper cable, the
frozen battery must be thawed com
pletely, othe rwise it could explode .
- Do not allow battery acid to contact eyes
or skin . Flush any contacted area with
water immediately .
- Improper use of a booster battery to
start a vehicle may cause an explosion.
- Vehicle batter ies generate explosive gas
es. Keep sparks, flame and lighted ciga
rettes away from batteries.
- Do not try to jump start any veh icle w ith
a low ac id level in the battery.
- The voltage of the booster battery must
also have a 12-Volt rating. The capacity
(Ah) of the booster battery should not be
lower than that of the discharged bat
tery . Use of batteries of different voltage
or substantially different "Ah" rat ing
may cause an exp losion and personal in
jury.
- Never charge a frozen battery. Gas trap
ped in the ice may cause an explosion.
- Never charge o r use a battery that has
been frozen . The battery case may have
be weakened.
- Use of batter ies of different voltage or
substantially different capacity (Ah) rat
ing may cause an exp losion and injury .
The ca pa city (Ah) of the booster battery
should not be lower than that of the dis
charged battery.
- Before you check anything in the engine
compartment, always read and heed all
WARNINGS¢
page 172, Engine com
partment.
(D Note
- App lying a higher voltage booster bat
tery will cause expensive damage to sen
sit ive electronic components, such as
control units, relays, rad io, etc .
- There must be no electrical contact be
tween the vehicles as otherwise current
could already start to flow as soon as the
posit ive(+) terminals are connected. ..,. •
