Driving

— If the vehicle does not move in the desired
direction, the system may not have engaged
the drive position correctly. Press the brake
pedal and select the drive position again.
— If the vehicle still does not move in the de-
sired direction, there is a system malfunc-
tion. See an authorized Audi dealer or au-
thorized Audi Service Facility for assistance
to have the system checked.
The transmission shifts up and down automati-
cally when in the driving gears.

Starting the engine
> The selector lever must be in the P or the N po-
sition. At low temperatures (below 14 °F
(-10 °C)), the engine can only be started when
the selector lever is in the P position.
Starting from a stop
> Press and hold the brake pedal.
> Press and hold the interlock button in the selec-
tor lever handle, select the desired selector lev-
er position such as "D" > page 62 and release
the lock button.
> Wait a moment until the transmission shifts.
You will notice a slight movement when the
gear engages.
> Release the brake pedal and press the accelera-
tor pedal > A\.
Various convenience functions are available for
starting on hills > page 61.
64
Stopping temporarily
> Keep the vehicle stationary using the braking
pedal, for example at traffic lights.
> Do not press the accelerator pedal when doing
this.
> To prevent the vehicle from rolling when you
start driving, set the parking brake when stop-
ping on steep hills > A\ and >@.
> The parking brake will release automatically
and the vehicle will start moving once you press
the accelerator pedal.
Stopping/parking
If the selector lever is not in the "P" position
when you open the driver’s door, the vehicle
could roll. In vehicles with a convenience key*,
the message Shift to P, otherwise vehicle can
roll away. Doors do not lock if gearshift is not in
P appears. A warning tone will also sound.
> Press and hold the brake pedal > A\.
>» Set the parking brake.
> Select the "P" selector lever position.
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 ona level surface, simply place the
selector lever in the "P" position. On inclines, ac-
tivate the parking brake first and then move the
selector lever to the "P" position > page 59. This
prevents the locking mechanism from being load-
ed too heavily and will make it easier to move the
selector lever out of the "P" position.

ZA 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 lever to
the P position. >

Driving



— Power is still transferred to the wheels when
the engine is running at idle. To prevent the
vehicle from “creeping”, you must keep your
foot on the brake when the engine is run-
ning and the selector lever is in the "D", "S"
or "R" position or “tiptronic” mode is select-
ed.
— 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.
— 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
“tiptronic”.
— 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 can substantially re-
duce braking performance, increase braking
distance, or cause 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 over-
load. The | indicator light turns on and a
message appears > page 67 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 engaged.
The selector lever must be firmly in the
P position and locked in place and the park-
ing brake must be set > page 227. Other-
wise, the vehicle could begin moving when
increasing the engine speed, even with the
parking brake set.

CG) 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.
— The transmission can overheat and be dam-
aged under certain driving and traffic condi-
tions such as frequent starts, creeping for a
long time, or stop-and-go traffic. When the
fs} or & indicator light turns on, stop the
vehicle at the next opportunity and let the
transmission cool > page 67.
— Allowing the vehicle to roll when the engine
is stopped will damage the S tronic trans-
mission because it is not lubricated
=> page 274, Towing.
@) Tips
For safety reasons, the parking brake is re-
leased automatically only when the driver's
safety belt is fastened.
Hill descent control
The hill descent control system assists the driver
when driving down hills.
Hill descent control is activated when the selec-
tor lever is in the "D" or "S" position and you
press the brake pedal. The transmission automat-
ically selects a gear that is suitable for the hill.
Hill descent control tries to maintain the speed
that was selected at the time of braking, within
physical and technical limitations. If may still be
necessary to adjust the speed with the brakes.
Because hill descent control cannot shift down
farther than 3rd gear, it may be necessary to shift
into tiptronic mode in very steep areas. In this

ZA WARNING
— The parking lock may only be released using
the emergency release if the parking brake
is set. If it is not working, secure the vehicle
from rolling using the brake pedal or other
suitable means, such as blocking a front and
a rear wheel. An unsecured vehicle may roll
away, which increases the risk of an acci-
dent.
— Only activate the emergency release while
ona level surface or a slight slope.
—To reduce the risk of an accident, you must
not drive when the emergency release is ac-

tivated.

Intelligent Technology
Electronic stabilization
control (ESC)
Electronic Stabilization Control (ESC) supports
driver safety. It reduces the risk of slipping and
improves driving stability. ESC detects critical sit-
uations such as the vehicle oversteering and un-
dersteering or the wheels are spinning. The
brakes are applied or the engine torque is re-
duced in order to stabilize the vehicle. When the
ESC engages, the B indicator light blinks in the
instrument cluster.
The following systems are integrated in the ESC:
Anti-lock braking system (ABS)
ABS prevents the wheels from locking when brak-
ing. The vehicle can still be steered even during
hard braking. Apply steady pressure to the brake
pedal. Do not pump the pedal. A pulsing in the
brake pedal indicates that the system is acting to
stabilize the vehicle.
Brake assist system
The brake assist system can decrease braking dis-
tance. It increases braking power when the driver
presses the brake pedal quickly in emergency sit-
uations. You must press and hold the brake pedal
until the dangerous situation is over.
Anti-Slip Regulation (ASR)
ASR reduces drive power when the drive wheels
begin spinning and adapts the power to the road
conditions. This makes it easier to start, acceler-
ate and drive up hills.
Electronic Differential Lock (EDL)
The EDL applies the brakes to wheels that are
slipping and transfers the drive power to the oth-
er wheels. This function is not available at higher
speeds.
In extreme cases, EDL automatically switches off
to keep the brake on the braked wheel from over-
heating. The vehicle is still functioning correctly.
86
EDL will switch on again automatically when con-
ditions have returned to normal.
Power steering
The ESC can also support vehicle stability
through steering.
Selective wheel torque control
Selective wheel torque control is used when driv-
ing on curves. Braking is targeted toward the
wheels on the inside of the curve as needed. This
allows more precise driving in curves.
Automatic post-collision braking system
The automatic post-collision braking system can
help to reduce the risk of sliding and of addition-
al collisions after an accident. If the airbag con-
trol module detects a collision above a certain ve-
hicle speed, the vehicle is braked by the ESC.
The vehicle does not brake automatically if one of
the following occurs:
— The driver presses the accelerator pedal
—The braking force generated by the pressed
brake pedal is greater than the braking force
that would be initiated by the system
— The ESC, the brake system, or the vehicle elec-
trical system is not functioning

ZA WARNING
— The ESC and its integrated systems cannot
overcome the limits imposed by natural
physical laws. This is especially important on
slippery or wet roads. If the systems begin
acting to stabilize your vehicle, you should
immediately alter your speed to match the
road and traffic conditions. Do not let the in-
creased safety provided tempt you into tak-
ing risks. This could increase your risk of a
collision.
— Please note the risk of a collision increases
when driving fast, especially through curves
and on slippery or wet roads, and when driv-
ing too close to objects ahead. The ESC and
its integrated systems cannot always pre-
vent collisions - there is still a risk of acci-
dents!

ZA\ 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.

() 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.
@ 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
Your vehicle is equipped with an intelligent ener-
gy management system for distributing electrici-
ty. This significantly improves the starting ability
and increases the vehicle battery life.
@ Tips
— If you drive short distances frequently, the
vehicle battery may not charge enough
while driving. As a result, convenience func-
tions for electrical equipment may be tem-
porarily unavailable.
— The vehicle battery will gradually drain if
the vehicle is not driven for long periods of
time, or if electrical equipment is used
when the engine is not running. To ensure
that the vehicle can still be started, the
electrical equipment will be limited or
switched off.
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 recorders
are also called “Event Data Recorders (EDR)”.
In some legal jurisdictions, it is not permitted to
access or download data recorded 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 stor-
ed data can only be read or downloaded with spe-
cial devices.
