If the power drawn by the connected appliances is above 150 W,
the inverter in the socket will get warm. The inverter will trip out if
the temperature exceeds a certain limit. The inverter can trip out on
hot days even when an appliance with a suitable power rating is
used. The inverter will switch on again automatically after it has
cooled down. Appliances which are already connected and
switched on will be activated again automatically ⇒
Do not connect lamps which contain a neon tube. For technical
reasons, this may damage the lamp.
Do not connect 115 Volt appliances to the 230 Volt Euro socket.
This may cause irreparable damage to the appliance. Check the type
plate on the appliance if you are unsure of the voltage rating.
With some power supplies (e.g. on laptop computers), the inte-
grated surge suppressor prevents the equipment from being
switched on because the starting current is too high. If this
happens, please disconnect the power supply unit from the load
and wait for about 10 seconds before re-connecting.
Note
Unshielded equipment can cause interference on the radio, TV
and vehicle's electrical system.
The Euro socket has an integrated child safety device. There is no
power at the socket until the Euro connector is fully inserted.
Some appliances may not function normally due to the lower
power rating (wattage).
The socket can be operated with 115 Volt power supplies, as is
the case in certain countries. In this case, a different type of inverter
must be installed in the vehicle. Retrofit kits are available from your
Audi dealer. Do not connect 115 Volt appliances to the 230 Volt Euro
socket.
Interference can occur on the radio's AM waveband if electrical
appliances are used near the rear window aerial.
