Driving
system
is
cleaned
at
regular
intervals.
This
is
done
by
applying
the
brake
pads
to
the
brake
ro-
tors
for
a
short
period
of
time
when
driving
at
high
speeds
when
the
windshield
wipers
are
switched
on.
If
the
brake
system
becomes
damp,
for
example
after
driving
in
heavy
rain,
the
braking
effect
may
be
delayed.
Other
factors
that
could
temporarily
increase
the
response
time
of
the
brakes
include:
Wet
conditions
Low
temperatures,
ice,
and
snow
Roads
covered
in
salt
~
Dirty
brake
pads
Corrosion
Corrosion
may form
on
the
brake
rotors
if
there
is
no
heavy
braking,
if
the
vehicle
is
not
driven
for
long
periods
of
time,
or
if
the
vehicle
is
not
driv-
en
frequently
or
for
long
distances.
In
this
case,
braking
heavily
several
times
while
driving
at
high
speeds
can
clean
the
brake
rotors
*
A\.
Brake
pads
New
brake
pads
do
not
achieve
their
full
braking
effect
during
the
first
250
miles
(400
km).
They
must
be
broken
in
first.
However,
you
can
com-
pensate
for the
slightly
reduced
braking
force
by
pressing
firmly
on
the
brake
pedal.
Avoid heavy
braking
during
the
break-in
period.
Brake
pad
wear
depends
largely
on
the
way
the
vehicle
is
driven
and
on
operating
conditions.
Brake
pad
wear
increases
when
driving
frequently
in
the
city
or
short
distances
or
when
using
a
very
sporty
driving
style.
Ceramic
brakes
Applies
to:
vehicles
with
ceramic
brakes
Ceramic
brakes
provide
excellent
deceleration
rates.
The
break-in
period
for
new
ceramic
brakes
may
be
significantly
longer
than
for
standard
brake
rotors.
The
properties
of
the
material
may
also
cause
noise,
especially
when
driving
at
lower
speeds.
Ceramic
brakes
also
absorb
more
mois-
ture
in
wet
conditions.
Therefore,
there
will
tem-
porarily
be
less
braking
force
than
when
the
brakes
are
dry.
You
can
compensate
for
this by
pressing
the
brake pedal
harder.
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,
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,
or
~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
Only
apply
the
brakes
for
the
purpose
of
cleaning
the
brake
system
when
road
and
traffic
conditions
permit.
You
must
not
en-
danger
other
road
users
and
increase
the
risk of
an
accident.
Due
to
the
risk of
injury,
only
have
an
au-
thorized
Audi
dealer
or
authorized
Audi
Service
Facility
work
on
the
brake
system.
Incorrect
repairs
could
impair
the
function.
Never
let
the
vehicle
roll
while
the
engine
is
stopped
because
this
increases
the
risk
of
an
accident.
During
automatic
braking
maneuvers,
the
brake pedal
may
move
downward
automati-
cally.
To
reduce
the
risk of
injury,
do
not
place
your
foot
under
the
brake
pedal.
Never
let
the
brakes
rub
by
pressing
the
pedal
lightly
when
braking
is
not
actually
necessary.
This
can
cause
the
brakes
to
over-
heat
and
increases braking
distance
and
causes
wear.
Observe
the
important
information
for
driv-
ing
downhill

This
especially
ap-
plies
when
towing
a
trailer.
