2 Answers
Audi A6L cigarette lighter usage steps are as follows: 1. Locate the cigarette lighter socket in the Audi A6L. The cigarette lighter socket is positioned between the two cup holders on the right side of the gear lever. 2. Simply press down the handle of the cigarette lighter to initiate heating. 3. It will automatically pop out when finished. Relevant information about the cigarette lighter: 1. The cigarette lighter operates at a voltage of 12 volts, matching the vehicle's battery voltage, and typically has a dedicated power line connected to it. 2. The outer metal shell of the cigarette lighter serves as the negative terminal of the power source, while the central heating element acts as the positive terminal.
When I first got my Audi A6L, I also spent ages looking for the cigarette lighter! It's at the bottom of the storage compartment in front of the gear lever – there's a cover with a chimney icon. Press the edge of the cover to pop it open. Don't pry it directly, as it contains a cylindrical metal heating element. Push it down firmly until you hear a 'click' sound, then the red light will come on. Wait about 5 seconds until the light goes off, and it will pop up automatically. Remember not to touch the metal tip with your hands at any time – it gets extremely hot! Make sure to push it back in after use, otherwise coins or keys in the storage compartment might fall in and cause a short circuit. Nowadays, more people use it to power dash cams, and the 12V socket is right next to it.
