pressure: malfunction! See owner's manual -
if
mm appears after switching on the ignition or
while driving and then the
[DJ indicator light in
the instrument cluster also starts to blink for
about one minute and then stays on permanen t­
ly, there is a system malfunction. Try to store the
correct tire pressures
<=:> page 262 . If the indica­
tor light does turn off or turns on again after a
short period of time, drive to an authorized Audi
dealer or authorized Aud i Serv ice Facility immedi­
ately to have the malfunction corrected .
_& WARNING
-If the tire pressure indicator appears in the
display, reduce your speed immediately and
avoid any hard steering or braking maneu­
vers. Stop as soon as possible and check the
tires and their pressure.
- The driver is responsible for maintaining the
correct tire pressures. You must check the
tire pressures regularly.
-Under certain conditions (such as a sporty
driving style, winter conditions or unpaved
roads), the pressure monitor indicator may
be delayed .
- Do not use run-flat tires on your vehicle. Us­
ing them when not permitted can lead to
vehicle damage or accidents .
(D Tips
- The tire pressure monitoring system can al­
so stop working when there is an ESC mal­
function.
- Using snow chains may result in a system
malfunction.
- The tires with the identification
"AO"
¢page 251 have been matched with your
Audi tire pressure monitoring system . Using
these tires is recommended.

Storing tire pressures
Applies to: vehicles with Tire P ressure Monitoring System in­
dicator
If the t ire pr essure chang es or a tire is replaced ,
it must be confirmed in the Infotainment sys­
tem.
.,. Make sure before storing that the tire pressures
of all four tires meet the specified values and
a re adapted to the load
<=:>page 253.
.,. Switch the ignition on.
.,. Select in the Infotainment system : the!M ENUI
button > Vehicle > left control button > Service
& checks> Tire pressure monitoring .
(D Tips
Do not store the tire pressures if snow chains
are installed .
Tire pressure monitoring
system
ill General notes
Each tire, including the spare (if provided),
should be checked monthly when cold and inflat­
ed to the inflation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or
tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size indicated on
the vehicle placard or tir e inflation pr essure la­
bel, you should determine the proper tire infla­
tion pressure for those tires).
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system
( T PMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure tell­
tale when one or more of you r tires is significant­
ly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure . Driving on a signifi­
cant ly under-inflated t ire causes the tire to over­
heat and can lead to tire failur e. Under-inflation
also reduces fuel efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle's handling and stop-
ping ability.

Displaying tire pressures/temperatures
Applies to: vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system
Requirement: you must be d rivi ng the veh icle .
"'Se lect in the Infotainment system: IMENU I but­
ton
> Service & checks > Tire pre ssur e monitor­
ing > Di splay tire pressure.
- Green:
the current tire pressure and the speci­
fied t ire pressure are approximately the same .
-Yellow: the current tire pressure is too low
compared to the specified tire pressure .
The specified tire press ure is the last tire pres ­
sure that was stored
c> page 264.
Note that t he tire p ressure also de pends on the
temperature of the tire . The tire press ure in­
creases as the engine becomes wa rmer whi le
driving.
A WARNING
Read and follow the important information
and notes
c> page 263.
(D Tips
The tire pressure or temperature is not d is ­
played while the veh icle is stationary and in
adaptation mode. Dashes --.--are shown in
place of the pressu re and temperature.
(D Tire pressure loss
Applies to: vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system
-
If the Rt] indicato r light turns on, the p ressure in
at least one t ire is too low o r new sensors we re
not adapted :
[I] indicator lights turns on after turning the
ignition on
The tire pressure is too low compared to the
specified p ressure.
"' Check and store the t ire pressure(s) the next
time it is poss ible
c> page 264 .
[I] indicator light turns on while dri ving
Wheels with new sensors were not adapted or
the t ire pressure has reached a critical leve l com­
pared to the specified pressure .

"'Avoid unnecessary steering and brak ing maneu -
vers .
"'Adapt your dr iving sty le to the s ituation.
"' Stop as soon as possible and check the tire(s).
"'If it is possib le to continue driv ing, see an au-
thorized Audi dealer or authorized Aud i Service
Facility immediately and have your tire(s) re­
pa ired o r rep laced .
A WARNING
Read and fo llow the impo rtant info rmation
and n otes
c>page 263.
Storing new tire pressures
Applies to: vehicles with tire pressure monitoring system
Correctly stored tire pressure specifications are
necessary for reliable tire pressure monitoring.
-
It is always necessary to store the t ire pressures
whe n the t ire pressu res a re modified, fo r exam­
ple d ue to a change in load . o r when new senso rs
a re installed.
"' Before storing the t ire pressures, make su re the
tire pressures of all four t ires meet the spec i­
fied va lues and are adapted to t he load
c::> page 254, fig. 190 . Only correct and store
the pressure in tires whose temperature is ap ­
proximate ly the same as the ambient tempera ­
t u re . If the temperature of the tire is higher
than the ambient air temperature, the tire pressure must be increased approximately
3.0 PSI (0.2 bar) above the value on the st icker.
"' Switch the ignit ion on .
"'Select in the Infotainment system : IMENU! but­
ton
> Service & checks > Tire pressure monitor­
ing > Store tire pre ssure > Ye s, store now .
Af­
ter storing the t ire pressures, the t ire press ure
mon itor ing system measures the c urrent pres ­
sures while driving and stores them as the new
specified pressures .
"'If the changed tire pressures are not displayed
in the Infotainment system, drive the vehicle
for approximately 10 minutes so that the sen­ sor signa l from the wheels is received again .
