2009 Specifications
* Airbags are supplemental restraints only and will not deploy under all crash circumstances. Always use safety belts and seat children in the rear, using restraint systems appropriate for their size and age.
** Summer performance tires are designed for optimum performance and handling in warm climates. They are not suitable for cold, snowy or icy weather conditions. If you drive under those circumstances, you should equip your
vehicle with all-season or winter tires, which offer better traction under those conditions. We suggest you use the recommended winter or all-season tires specified for your car or its equivalent. These summer performance
tires also have a lower aspect ratio, which aids performance and handling: However, in order to avoid tire, rim or vehicle damage, it is important that the inflation pressure is regularly checked and maintained at recommended
levels. Serious wheel and tire damage may occur if the vehicle is operated on rough or damaged road surfaces or upon encountering road debris or obstacles. Please also remember in making your selection that, while these
tires deliver responsive handling, they may ride less comfortably and make more noise than other choices. Finally, these tires may wear more quickly than other choices. For more information on all of these topics, please
consult the owner’s manual, your local dealer or call 1-800-FOR-AUDI.
† Audi Navigation plus depends on signals from the worldwide Global Positioning Satellite network. The vehicle’s electrical system, and existing wireless and satellite technologies, must be available and operating properly for
the system to function. The system is designed to provide you with suggested routes in locating addresses, destinations and other points of interest. Changes in street names, construction zones, traffic flow, points of interest
and other road system changes are beyond the control of Audi of America, LLC. Complete detailed mapping of lanes, roads, streets, toll roads, highways, etc., is not possible, therefore you may encounter discrepancies between the
mapping and your actual location. Please rely on your individual judgement in determining whether or not to follow a suggested Audi Navigation plus route. Periodically, the mapping is updated, and a new DVD will be required
in order to maintain the latest navigation information available to us. These will be available for purchase from time to time at additional cost. Consult your dealer or call 1-800-FOR-AUDI for details.
†† Your Audi vehicle is equipped with a phone preparation utilizing Bluetooth interface to enable hands-free functionality [compatible mobile phones sold separately]. You will need a Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone in order to utilize
this function. Not all Bluetooth-enabled mobile phone models are compatible with Audi’s phone preparation. Visit audiusa.com/bluetooth, or contact your local Audi dealer for the latest listing of compatible phones. Audi
recommends use of the Audi phone cradle [sold separately] with your mobile phone while operating this vehicle in order to maintain the latest navigation information available to us. These will be available for purchase from
time to time at additional cost. Consult your dealer or call 1-800-FOR-AUDI for details.
