Default Where is the battery?

I'm going to answer my own question... Attached are the only two mentions I could find of the vehicle battery location in the Owner's Manual. Apparently, Audi doesn't know where they put the battery.

I looked in the cargo area....nothing. I looked in the engine compartment...nothing.

Finally found it... It's under a panel under the floor mat in the front passenger's footwell!

And under the panel on the driver's side foot well (left hand drive cars) is where you stick the tool to put the transmission in neutral (shift lock release). And under the LED light on the right side of the cargo area is the manual fuel door release.

Audi hid quite a few things.

At least the manual states the correct location for the latter two items.

Now if I could only find an ignition switched power source for my radar detector. The cigar lighter source would be perfect if I could figure out how to get to the back of it.

Thanks SYMAWD !! Good to know some of these things ahead of getting the car.
