Tire
pressure: System malfunction!.
If
m
appears
after switching the
ignition
on or whi le driving
and the
IE
indicator light in the
instrument
clus-
ter blinks
for
approximately one minute and then
stays on, there is system malfunction. Try to
store the correct tire pressures
c::>
page 2 73. If
the indicator light does not turn off or turns on
again after a short period of time,
drive
to an au-
thor ized
Audi
dealer or
authorized
Audi Service
Facility
im
mediately
to
have the
malfunction cor-
rected.
A
WARNING
- If
the tire pressure warning light
IE
in
the
instrument cluster turns on, the pressure
in
one or more tires is too low
.
Reduce the ve-
hicle speed
immediately
and avoid any hard
steering
or
braking maneuvers. Stop as soon
as
possible, check
the
tire
and inflate
the
t ire to
the
correct
pressure,
which is speci-
fied on the tire pressure label on the veh
icle
c::>
page
263. Driving with a ti
re with low
pressure causes the tire
to
overheat and
can
result
in
failure of the
tire.
Low
pressure
can
also have
a
negative effect
on
the driving
and braking
behavior
of the vehicle
.
-
The driver is
responsible
for maintaining
the
correct tire
pressures.
You must check the
tire
pressures regularly.
- Under
certain conditions (such
as
a sporty
driv ing 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.
Tires
and
wheels
-
Using
snow chains may result in
a system
ma lfunction.
-
The
tires with the identification "AO" or
"RO"
c::>
page 260 have been matched with
your
Audi
tire pressure monitoring system
.
We
recommend
that
you use these tires.
-
The
tire
pressure
monitoring system can on-
ly monitor the tire pressure of the driving
tires. Check the tire pressure of the spare
wheel in the luggage compartment so that
if necessary it is ready for
use.
Storing tire pressures
Applies to vehicles: with tire pressure mon itor ing system
A change in tire pressure or a change in tires
must be stored in the system.
The tire pressure is stored in the MMI.
.,.
Make sure befo re
storing that
t
he
tire
pressures
of all four
tires
meet the specified values and
are adapted to the load.
Otherwise
the system
could malfunction
