Before
adjusting your seat there are some
important considerations to keep in mind.
• To prevent interference with the seat ad­
justment, never store anything under the
seats.
• The front seats should be adjusted be­
fore fastening the safety belts.
• The position of the driver's seat you find
most comforta ble can be stored in the me­
IT]Ory. See page 81 for details.
�W ARNING
Because the seats can be electri­
cally adjusted with the ignition
key removed, never leave children
unattended in the vehicle. Unsu­
pervised use of the electric seat
adjustments may cause serious in­
iury. Seat

How to coordinate the remote con­
trol to a memory button
You can use the remote control to recall an
individual seating position stored in memo­
ry.
In order to recall stored seat and mirror posi­
tions from the memory with the remote
control, a specific memory button must be
assigned to the transmitter units.
82 The
first factory provided transmitter unit
should be programmed to memory button 1
and the second transmitter unit to button 2.
If required, you can order an additional re­
mote control transmitter from an authorized
Audi Dealer, which should then be pro­
grammed to memory button 3.
Assigning stored settings to the remote
control:
After you have stored all settings under a
memory button, you can assign this setting
to the remote control.
• Briefly press the memory button to be
coord inated with the remote control.
Wait until the seat, the outside mirrors and
the steering wheel have reached their
stored position.
• Press the same memory button a second
time and hold while depressing the unlock
button on the remote control. Release the
memory button after 2 seconds.
The memory button on the seat is now coor­
dinated with the remote control. Notes
• If you coordinate a remote control to a
'new' memor y button on the driver's seat,
the coordination with the 'old' button will be
erased.
• The coordination between the remote
control and a memory button will remain in
effect even if the settings under the
memory button on the driver's seat have
been changed.
• In addition, it is possible to erase a single
key assignment to a specific memory but­
ton.
Press and hold the memory button while
pressing the unlock button on the master
key with remote control for about 1 0 sec­
onds. Then release the memory button af­
ter about 2 seconds.

CONTROLS AND EQ
UIPMEN T---------------------
Retrieving using the
memory buttons
• With the passenger's door open, de­
press and release the desired memory but­
ton. The seat will automatically adjust to the
stored position.
• If the door has been closed, you must
then depress and hold the memory button
until the seat has reached its stored posi­
tion.
Note
You can not reca ll the stored seat adjust­
ment for the front passenger's seat using
the remote control in the master key.
84 Emergency
Off
In an emergency, you can interrupt
any retrieval procedure by
• pressing the '"STOP'" button (see il­
lustration on page 81 and 83). or
• tapping one of the memory buttons.
Pushing the"ON/OFF"button to the OFF
position only switches off the Memory. The
stored settings will not be erased.
It's a good idea to turn the Memory off if the
vehicle is going to be used temporarily by a
driver whose driving position will not be
memorized.
The advantage is that the personal settings
that have already been memorized will re­
main intact and will not change each time
the vehicle is unlocked using the remote
control. Note
The memory function is switched off when
the STOP button is pressed. The word
''OFF" lights up if the headlights are
switched on. However, the programmed
seat, outside mirrors and steering wheel
positions remain stored in the memory.

Convenient
entry function
This facilitates entering and leaving the car
by moving the steering wheel.
The convenient entry function can be
switched on and off by pressing button B.
With the convenient entry switched on
(button B depressed), the steering wheel
moves into the parked position (forward and
up) when the ignition key is removed. After
the driver has entered the car, the
steering wheel returns to the memorized
position as soon as the key is turned in the
ignition.
This recall function is only operative when
the "STOP" button for the seat memory is
depressed.
When the convenient entry is ewitched
off, the steering wheel moves into the
memorized position as soon as the seat
position memory button is pressed. CONT

5-spaad automatic transmission (Tiptronic®)*
Yo ur vehicle is equip ped with an electroni­
cally controlled five-speed automatic trans­
missi �n, upshifting and downshifting is au­
tomatiC. You can also manually select a shift
program mptronic®).
Ignition key safety interlock
After switching off the ignition, you can re­
move the ignition key only when the selec­
tor lever is in the P (Park) position. When
the ignition key is removed, the selector le­
ver will be locked in the P (Park) position.
10 4 Shift
programs
The transmission is "self adapting" and will
automa tically select the most appropri­
ate sh1ft program suited to the driving condi­
tions and driving style.
The transmission will select one of the eco­
nomy programs when you drive at a steady
speed or at gradually changing speeds with­
out heavy acceleration. This gives best fuel
efficiency, with early upshifting and delayed
down shifting.
The transmission will automatically select
the _sporty shift programs when you drive
at h1 gh er speeds, or with heavy acceleration
and frequently changing speeds. Upshifts
are then delayed to make full use of engine
P ?Wer, an9 downshifting takes place at
higher eng1ne speeds than in the economy
programs. The s
�lection o � the most suitable shift pro­
gram JS a contmuous automatic process.
Regardless of this, the driver can also make
the transmission switch to a sporty pro­
gram by pressing down the gas pedal
quickly.
This causes the transmission to shift down
into a lower gear and makes quick accelera­
tion possible (for example to pass another
vehicle). You do not need to depress the gas
pedal into the kick-down range. After the
transmission _has upsh ifted again, the origi­
n� ! program IS selected according to your
dnv1ng style.
An additional shift program allows the auto­
matic t�ansmission to select the proper gear
for uphill and downhill driving.
This prevents the transmission from shift­
ing up �n� dow � un necessarily on hills. The
transmiSSion w1ll also shift down to a lower
gear when the driver presses the brake
pedal while driving downhill. This makes
use of the braking effect of the engine with­
out the need to shift down manually.
With this function the transmission will
however, only shift down as far as 2nd gear :

In selector
lever positions "P" (Park) a no
"N" (Neutral), the instruction "WHEN
STA TIONARY APPLY FOOTBRAKE WHILE
SELECTING GEAR" appears in the instru­
ment cluster as a reminder for the driver.
Also, the symbol in the shift console will
light up.
A time delay element prevents the selector
lever from locking when it is moved through
the "N"' (Neutral) position (for example,
going from "R" to "D"). The locking ele­
ment only locks the selector lever if it is left
in the "N" (Neutral) position for more than
about one second without the brake pedal
being depressed.
In the N (Neutral) position, the selector le­
ver will not lock when the vehicle is driving
faster than 3 mph (5 km/h). Display
When the ignition is switched on, the posi­
tion of the selector lever is shown in the dis­
play in the instrument cluster. The illustra­
tion shows selector position D engaged.
The engaged selector lever position will ap­
pear bright against a dark background while
the other positions appear just the opposite.
If all the positions appear dark against a
bright background at the same time, or
when no positions are indicated then there
is a malfunction in the transmission -see
under "Fail-safe mode" on page 111. CONT
ROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Selector lever positions
P- Park
Engage P (Park) only when the vehicle is
stationary. When parking your vehicle, ap­
ply the parking brake first, and then move
the selector lever completely to position P.
To do this depress the button in the
handle of the selector lever and
push it through R to P. The transmis­
sion is then mechanically locked.
To move the selector lever out of the P
(Park) position you must first insert the
ign ition key into the ignition lock and turn.
Before you move the selector lever
from the P (Park) position, you must
always apply the brake pedal before
and while depressing the button in
the handle of the selector lever.
Shift out of the P (Park) position before re­
leasing the parking brake.
When the vehicle is parked on a steep hill,
shifting out of P (Park) may be a little hard­
er. This is due to the vehicle' s weight ex­
erted on the transmission.
