integrated in the Front Interior Light -W1- . One microphone is
connected ( left front microphone -R140- ) with the telephone
transceiver .
♦ Cell phone preparation in the information electronics control
module 1 -J794- (MMI)
The cell phone preparation does not have a separate control
module (telephone transceiver), but rather all the functions are
integrated into the information electronics control module 1. Op‐
eration is performed via the MMI Infotainment System or the
cellular telephone.
integrated in the Front Interior Light -W1- . On microphone (left
front microphone) is connected directly to the information elec‐
tronics control module 1.
♦ Bluetooth® hands-free setup in the information electronics
control module 1 (MMI)

Map Orientation for the Calibration Device -VAS 6350/4-

– Position the calibration platform -VAS 6350/4- behind the ve‐
hicle at a distance of 1.47 m to 1.90 m (5 to 6 ft.) to the rear
wheels, see -dimension A- in the illustration ⇒ page 103 .
– Bring calibration tool for lane changing assist -VAS 6350/4- to
a horizontal position.

– To do so, twist plastic feet under calibration tool for lane

changing assist -VAS 6350/4- so that air bubble in level is lo‐
cated exactly in the center of the indicator -arrow-
WARNING
Make sure light does not reflect off the calibration device -VAS
6350/4- .
Reflections affect the rear view camera -R189- and may make
it impossible to perform the calibration.
– Switch on the line laser -VAS 6350/3- -1- on the calibration tool
for lane changing assist -VAS 6350/4- and then align the cal‐
ibration tool for lane changing assist -VAS 6350/4- so that the
laser beam is pointed to the center of the Audi rings.
– Make sure the Audi rings are centered on the rear. Adjust the
laser beam as needed.
Continue to calibrate the rearview camera -R189- , refer to
⇒ “4.1.3 Rearview Camera R189 , Calibrating“, page 105 .

– Set-up requirements ⇒ page 103 .
– Connect the Vehicle diagnostic tester.
Attach the wheel center sensor -VAS 6350/1- :
– Check which hole circle the rims have.
– Install the wheel bolt adapters -VAS 6350/1- .
– To do so, secure three wheel center sensor -VAS 6350/1- in
the hole circle to each wheel pick-up.
– Attach paddles to both wheel pick-ups -VAS 6350/1- and se‐
cure them with clamping screw.
– Place Wheel Center Sensor -VAS 6350/1- on wheel bolts on
rear wheels.

The wheel center sensors -VAS 6350/1- are positioned by the “O-
rings“ in the adapters and held in place.
Note
Mount the wheel center sensor -VAS 6350/1- on the wheel so that
if the wheel has “anti-theft“ wheel bolts, they do not contact the
wheel center sensor -VAS 6350/1- .
– Adjust paddle with aid of clamping screws so that they move

freely just above the floor. Make sure the paddles move easily.
– Install the calibration device -VAS 6350/4- and align it to them.
Refer to
⇒ “4.1.2 Calibration Device VAS 6350/4 , Mounting and Ad‐
justing“, page 103 .
Distance measurement:
– Turn on the spacing laser -VAS 6350/2- with the ON button.
The following display appears and the spacing laser -VAS 6350/2-
turns on.
– Hold the distance laser -VAS 6350/2- -2- flush in the bracket
on one side of the calibration tool for lane changing assist -
VAS 6350/4- . The distance laser -VAS 6350/2- -2- must sit
securely on the bracket.
– Make sure that laser beam from Distance Laser -VAS 6350/2-
-2- hits lower, enlarged part of paddle -1-.
If this is not the case, then the paddle must be corrected accord‐
ingly via the screws on the wheel center sensor -VAS 6350/1- .
– With one hand, firmly hold the spacing laser -VAS 6350/2- in
the bracket on the calibration tool for lane changing assist -
VAS 6350/4- while the laser beam is visible on the paddle.
– Briefly press ON button for distance measurement.

Display readout
– Note the value read off.
– Repeat measuring procedure in the same manner for the other
rear wheel on the other side of the calibration tool for lane
changing assist -VAS 6350/4- .
The distance value must be the same on both sides.
If values are not identical:
– Adjust the calibration tool for lane changing assist -VAS
6350/4- until values on both sides are identical.
When aligning the calibration tool for lane changing assist -VAS
6350/4- make sure the line laser -VAS 6350/3- from the calibra‐
tion tool for lane changing assist -VAS 6350/4- still strikes the
center of the Audi rings and the indicator of the level remains
centered. If necessary, make further corrections.
Dimension measurement -H-:
– Measure the height of the calibration tool for lane changing
assist -VAS 6350/4- , dimension -H- (top edge platform - floor).

Enter the height and distance dimensions into the Vehicle diag‐
nostic tester in “millimeters“.

Cautions & Warnings
Please read these WARNINGS and CAUTIONS before proceeding with maintenance
and repair work. You must answer that you have read and you understand these
WARNINGS and CAUTIONS before you will be allowed to view this information.
•= If you lack the skills, tools and equipment, or a suitable workshop for any procedure described in
this manual, we suggest you leave such repairs to an authorized Audi retailer or other qualified
shop. We especially urge you to consult an authorized Audi retailer before beginning repairs on
any vehicle that may still be covered wholly or in part by any of the extensive warranties issued by
Audi.
•= Disconnect the battery negative terminal (ground strap)whenever you work on the fuel system or
the electrical system. Do not smoke or work near heaters or other fire hazards. Keep an approved
fire extinguisher handy.
•= Audi is constantly improving its vehicles and sometimes these changes, both in parts and
specifications, are made applicable to earlier models. Therefore, part numbers listed in this
manual are for reference only. Always check with your authorized Audi retailer parts department
for the latest information.
•= Any time the battery has been disconnected on an automatic transmission

in this
necessary to reestablish Transmission Control Module (TCM) basic settings using the VAG 1551
Scan Tool (ST).
•= Never work under a lifted vehicle unless it is solidly supported on stands designed for the purpose.
Do not support a vehicle on cinder blocks, hollow tiles or other props that may crumble under
continuous load. Never work under a vehicle that is supported solely by a jack. Never work under
the vehicle while the engine is running.
•= For vehicles equipped with an anti-theft radio, be sure of the correct radio activation code before
disconnecting the battery or removing the radio. If the wrong code is entered when the power is
restored, the radio may lock up and become inoperable, even if the correct code is used in a later
attempt.
•= If you are going to work under a vehicle on the ground, make sure that the ground is level. Block
the wheels to keep the vehicle from rolling. Disconnect the battery negative terminal (ground
strap) to prevent others from starting the vehicle while you are under it.
•= Do not attempt to work on your vehicle if you do not feel well. You increase the danger of injury to
yourself and others if you are tired, upset or have taken medicine or any other substances that
may impair you or keep you from being fully alert.
•= Never run the engine unless the work area is well ventilated. Carbon monoxide (CO) kills.
•= Always observe good workshop practices. Wear goggles when you operate machine tools or work
with acid. Wear goggles, gloves and other protective clothing whenever the job requires working
with harmful substances.
•= Tie long hair behind your head. Do not wear a necktie, a scarf, loose clothing, or a necklace when
you work near machine tools or running engines. If your hair, clothing, or jewelry were to get
caught in the machinery, severe injury could result.

Version 1.0
Cautions & Warnings
•= Do not re-use any fasteners that are worn or deformed in normal use. Some fasteners are
designed to be used only once and are unreliable and may fail if used a second time. This
includes, but is not limited to, nuts, bolts, washers, circlips and cotter pins. Always follow the
recommendations in this manual - replace these fasteners with new parts where indicated, and
any other time it is deemed necessary by inspection.
•= Illuminate the work area adequately but safely. Use a portable safety light for working inside or
under the vehicle. Make sure the bulb is enclosed by a wire cage. The hot filament of an
accidentally broken bulb can ignite spilled fuel or oil.
•= Friction materials such as brake pads and clutch discs may contain asbestos fibers. Do not create
dust by grinding, sanding, or by cleaning with compressed air. Avoid breathing asbestos fibers and
asbestos dust. Breathing asbestos can cause serious diseases such as asbestosis or cancer, and
may result in death.
•= Finger rings should be removed so that they cannot cause electrical shorts, get caught in running
machinery, or be crushed by heavy parts.
•= Before starting a job, make certain that you have all the necessary tools and parts on hand. Read
all the instructions thoroughly, do not attempt shortcuts. Use tools that are appropriate to the work
and use only replacement parts meeting Audi specifications. Makeshift tools, parts and
procedures will not make good repairs.
•= Catch draining fuel, oil or brake fluid in suitable containers. Do not use empty food or beverage
containers that might mislead someone into drinking from them. Store flammable fluids away from
fire hazards. Wipe up spills at once, but do not store the oily rags, which can ignite and burn
spontaneously.
•= Use pneumatic and electric tools only to loosen threaded parts and fasteners. Never use these
tools to tighten fasteners, especially on light alloy parts. Always use a torque wrench to tighten
fasteners to the tightening torque listed.
•= Keep sparks, lighted matches, and open flame away from the top of the battery. If escaping
hydrogen gas is ignited, it will ignite gas trapped in the cells and cause the battery to explode.
•= Be mindful of the environment and ecology. Before you drain the crankcase, find out the proper
way to dispose of the oil. Do not pour oil onto the ground, down a drain, or into a stream, pond, or
lake. Consult local ordinances that govern the disposal of wastes.
•= The air-conditioning (A/C) system is filled with a chemical refrigerant that is hazardous. The A/C
system should be serviced only by trained automotive service technicians using approved
refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment, trained in related safety precautions, and familiar with
regulations governing the discharging and disposal of automotive chemical refrigerants.
•= Before doing any electrical welding on vehicles equipped with anti-lock brakes (ABS), disconnect
the battery negative terminal (ground strap) and the ABS control module connector.
•= Do not expose any part of the A/C system to high temperatures such as open flame. Excessive
heat will increase system pressure and may cause the system to burst.
=Page 2 of 3
Version 1.0
Cautions & Warnings
•= When boost-charging the battery, first remove the fuses for the Engine Control Module (ECM), the
Transmission Control Module (TCM), the ABS control module, and the trip computer. In cases
where one or more of these components is not separately fused, disconnect the control module
connector(s).
•= Some of the vehicles covered by this manual are equipped with a supplemental restraint system
(SRS), that automatically deploys an airbag in the event of a frontal impact. The airbag is operated
by an explosive device. Handled improperly or without adequate safeguards, it can be accidentally
activated and cause serious personal injury. To guard against personal injury or airbag system
failure, only trained Audi Service technicians should test, disassemble or service the airbag
system.
•= Do not quick-charge the battery (for boost starting) for longer than one minute, and do not exceed
16.5 volts at the battery with the boosting cables attached. Wait at least one minute before
boosting the battery a second time.
•= Never use a test light to conduct electrical tests of the airbag system. The system must only be
tested by trained Audi Service technicians using the VAG 1551 Scan Tool (ST) or an approved
equivalent. The airbag unit must never be electrically tested while it is not installed in the vehicle.
•= Some aerosol tire inflators are highly flammable. Be extremely cautious when repairing a tire that
may have been inflated using an aerosol tire inflator. Keep sparks, open flame or other sources of
ignition away from the tire repair area. Inflate and deflate the tire at least four times before
breaking the bead from the rim. Completely remove the tire from the rim before attempting any
repair. Protected by copyright. Copying for private or commercial purposes, in part or in whole, is not
•= When driving or riding in an airbag-equipped vehicle, never hold test equipment in your hands or
lap while the vehicle is in motion. Objects between you and the airbag can increase the risk of
injury in an accident.
