Installation instructions: (Audi)
1.) Remove the rear bumper cover. To do this first detach the screws in the wheel bases at right and
left (3 apiece). Then detach the screws at left and right in the loading space opening of the boot and
remove the covering, which is affixed with Velcro tape. Detach the screws located under this (6 in
all) and remove the fixture plate. Remove the bumper covering in backwards direction.
2.) Remove the rear aluminium bumper. To do this detach the two hexagon screws respectively at
right and left. The hexagon screws and the aluminium bumper are no longer required.
3.) Remove the linen adhesive strip on both longitudinal beams at the left and right of the vehicle at
the outside in the area of the elongated holes at "a". If provided, remove the clips in front of the front
mounting points from the longitudinal beams. Treat any open, metallically polished surfaces with an
anti-corrosive (zinc primed, etc.).
4.) Pre-assemble the power outlet and the connecting cable on the towing hitch according to the
installation instructions for electrical equipment.
5.) From the rear move the side parts of the towing hitch [1] halfway into the longitudinal beams of
the vehicle. At the same time guide the connecting cable through the opening in the tail plate. Install
seals into the longitudinal beams at left and right and slide the towing hitch in until the drill holes at
"a" are congruent with the elongated holes in the vehicle.
6.) Affix the towing hitch at left and right by using the hexagon screws [4] and washers [5] at "b".
Tighten all four screws with a torque of 55Nm +5Nm.
