General notes
Safety is the first priority
Your safety is our first priority.
This chapter contains important information,
tips, suggestions and warnings that you should
read and observe for your own safety and the
safety of your passengers.
_&. WARNING
- The information in this chapter is important
for the driver of the vehicle and all passen­
gers. The other chapters in this manual
(and, where applicable, in the other litera­
ture supplied with the vehicle) contain fur­
ther important notes which you should read
and observe for your own safety and that of
your passengers.
- Ensure that the complete vehicle wallet is
always in the vehicle. This is especially im­
portant when you lend or sell the vehicle to
others.
Notes on traffic safety
You should only use certain infotainment system
functions, e.g. enter a navigation destination,
while the vehicle is stationary. Always be pre­
pared to stop operating the infotainment system
in the interest of your own safety and that of oth­
er road users.
_&. WARNING
- To day's driving conditions require your full
attention. As the driver, you have full re­
sponsibility for the safety of the vehicle and
other road users. For this reason, only oper­
ate the infotainment system when the traf­
fic conditions allow you to do so safely and
when you can maintain proper control of
your vehicle - risk of accident!
- The volume of the audio sources (radio, CD
player, etc.) should only be set at a level
which enables you to hear distant police and
192 emergency
vehicles clearly-failure to do so
could result in an accident.
- Please observe the laws regulating the use
of telephones in vehicles.
Safety features
The safety features Listed here are part of the ve­
hicle's occupant restraint system. They work to­
gether to help reduce the risk of injury in a wide
variety of accident situations.
Your safety and the safety of your passengers
should not be left to chance. In the event of an
accident, the safety features incorporated in your
vehicle are capable of reducing the risk of injury.
These are just a few of the safety features in your
Audi:
- Seat belts for all seats
- Belt force limiters for all seats
- Belt tensioners for the front seats
- Front airbags
- Side airbags in the front seat backrests
- Head-protection airbags
- "ISO FIX" anchorages* for "ISO FIX" child seats
on the rear seats
-Adjustable steering column
These individual safety features are harmonised
to provide you and your passengers with the best
possible protection in accident situations. How­
ever, they can only be effective if you and your
passengers sit in the correct position and adjust
and use the safety equipment properly.
For these reasons, this chapter explains why
these safety features are so important, how they
can protect you, what you need to remember
when using them, and how you and your passen­
gers can gain the most benefit from them. There
are also a number of important safety warnings
which you and your passengers should always ob­
serve in order to minimise the risk of injury.
Safety is everyone's responsibility!

every trip
The driver is responsible for the safety of the
passengers and the safe operation of the vehicle
at all times.
For your own safety and the safety of your pas­
sengers, always note the following points before
every trip:
.,. Make sure that all lights and turn signals are
working properly.
.,. Check the tyre pressures.
.,. Make sure that all windows are clean and give
good visibility to the outside.
.,. Secure all luggage and other items carefully
¢page 201.
.,. Make sure that no objects can interfere with the
pedals.
.,. Adjust
the mirrors and the front seat according
to your body height.
.,. Make sure that children are protected with suit­
able safety seats and properly worn seat belts
¢page 195.
.,. Sit in the correct position in your seat. Make
sure that your passengers are sitting in the cor­
rect positions ¢ page 46 .
.,. Fasten your seat belt correctly. Make sure that
your passengers do the same ¢page 204.
What factors can impair your safety?
Safety on the road is directly related to how you
drive, and can also be affected by the passengers
in the vehicle.
The driver is responsible for the safety of the ve­
hicle and all its occupants. If your ability to drive
is impaired in any way, you endanger yourself and
other road users ¢& . Therefore:
.,. Do not let yourself be distracted by passengers
or by using a mobile phone, etc.
.,. Never drive when your driving ability is im­
paired (by medication, alcohol, drugs, etc.).
.,. Obey all traffic regulations and speed limits
and always maintain a safe distance to the vehi-
� de
in front.
� .,.
Always adjust your speed to suit the road, traf-
� fie
and weather conditions.

stressed.
A WARNING
- Distractions while driving or any kind of im­
pairment to your driving ability increase the
risk of accident and injury .
- Do not place loose objects on the dash pan­
el. These objects could fly around the interi­
or when the vehicle is moving (under accel­
eration or whilst cornering) and distract the
driver -risk of accident!

the following driving position.
.,. Adjust the driver's seat and steering wheel so
there is a distance of at least 25 cm between
your breastbone and the centre of the steering
wheel¢ Fig. 172.
.,. Adjust the height and fore/aft position of the
driver's seat so that you are able to press the
pedals to the floor without fully straightening
your legs ¢ .&_ .

.. Adjust the longitudinal position of the steering
wheel so that your arms are slightly bent and
you can read the dials and instruments easily.
.. Make sure that you can comfortably reach the
top of the steering wheel.
.. Fasten
your seat belt correctly ¢ page 204 .
.. Keep both feet in the footwell so that you are in
full control of the vehicle at all times.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
driver's seat, see¢ page 46, Seats and storage.
A WARNING
A driver who is not sitting in the correct posi­
tion or who is not wearing a seat belt can be
fatally injured if the airbag is triggered.
- Adjust the driver's seat and steering wheel
so there is a distance of at least 25 cm be­
tween your breastbone and the centre of the
steering wheel¢ Fig. 172.
- While driving, always hold the steering
wheel with both hands on the outside of the
rim at about the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi­
tion. This reduces the risk of injury if the
driver's airbag inflates.
- Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position, or with your hands inside
the rim or on the steering wheel hub. This
could result in serious injuries to the arms,
hands and head if the driver's airbag in­
flates.
- To reduce any risk of injury to the driver dur­
ing a sudden brake application or in an acci­
dent, never drive with the backrest tilted
too far back. The airbag system and seat
belts can only provide proper protection
when the backrest is in an upright position
and the driver is wearing the seat belt in the
correct position. The further the backrest is
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the belt webbing
or an incorrect sitting position.
194 Correct
position for the front passenger
The front seat passenger must sit at least 25 cm
away from the dash panel so that the airbag has
enough room to inflate and give maximum pro­
tection in an accident.
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of in­
jury in the event of an accident, we recommend
adjusting the front passenger's seat as follows:
.. Adjust the backrest to an upright position so
that your back remains in contact with the up­
holstery .
.. Keep both feet in the footwell in front of the
seat.
.. Fasten your seat belt correctly ¢ page 206.
In exceptional cases you can disable the front
passenger's airbag via the key-operated switch*
¢page 211.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
front passenger's seat, see ¢ page 46, Seats and
storage.
A WARNING
A passenger who is not sitting in the correct
position or who is not wearing a seat belt can
be fatally injured if the airbag is triggered.
- Adjust the front passenger's seat so there is
a distance of at least 25 cm between your
breastbone and the dash panel.
- Always keep your feet on the floor when the
vehicle is moving; never rest them on the in­
strument panel, out of the window or on the
seat. If you sit in an incorrect position, you
increase your risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking or an accident. If the airbag
is triggered, you could sustain potentially
fatal injuries by sitting out of position.
- To reduce the risk of injury to the front pas­
senger in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, the passenger should never travel
in a moving vehicle with the backrest re­
clined. The airbag system and seat belt can
only provide proper protection when the
backrest is in an upright position and the
passenger is wearing the seat belt in the
correct position. The further the backrest is

belts
Even at urban speeds of 30 km/h to 50 km/h, the
forces acting on the occupants in a collision can
reach the equivalent of 1 ton (1000 kg) or more.
At greater speed these forces are even higher.
Again: if the speed doubles, the forces increase
by a factor of four.
Passengers who do not wear seat belts are not
"attached" to the vehicle. In a frontal collision
they will continue to move forward at the speed
their car was travelling just before the impact.
What happens to passengers not wearing
seat belts?
Passengers not wearing seat belts risk fatal inju­
ries in the event of an accident.
Fig. 186 A driver not wearing a seat belt can be thrown
forwards
Fig. 187 A rear passenger not wearing a seat belt can be
thrown forwards
In a frontal collision, unbelted passengers will be
thrown forwards and make violent contact with
the steering wheel, dashboard, windscreen, etc
¢ Fig
. 186.
Passengers not wearing their belts
risk being thrown out of the car. This could result
in potentially fatal injuries.
The common belief that occupants can brace
their weight with their hands in a minor collision
206 is
false. Even at low speeds the forces acting on
the body in a collision are so great that it is not
possible to hold yourself in the seat.
It is also important for the rear passengers to
wear seat belts, as they could otherwise be
thrown forwards violently in an accident. Rear
passengers who do not use seat belts endanger
not only themselves but also the other occupants

system
Description of front airbags
The airbag system is not a substitute for the seat
belts.
Fig. 196 Driver's airbag in steering wheel
Fig. 197 Front passenger's airbag in dashboard
The front airbag for the driver is located in the
padded hub of the steering wheel ¢Fig. 196. The
front airbag for the front passenger is in the
dashboard above the glove box ¢Fig. 197. The
locations of the airbags are marked with the
word "AIRBAG".
In conjunction with the seat belts, the front air­
bags give additional head and chest protection
for the driver and front passenger in the event of
a severe frontal collision ¢ A in Important safe­
ty notes on the front airbag system on
page 213.
212 How
the front airbags work
When fully inflated, the airbags reduce the risk
of head or chest injury.
Fig. 198 Front airbags in inflated condition
The driver's and front passenger's airbag are trig­
gered in certain frontal collisions ¢Fig. 198. Fur­
ther airbag systems may also be triggered, de­
pending on the circumstances.
When the system is triggered, the airbags fill
with a prope llant gas and open out in front of the
driver and front passenger ¢ Fig. 198. In order to
provide the desired extra protection in an acci­
dent, the airbags have to inflate extremely rapid­
ly (within fractions of a second). The fully de­
ployed airbags cushion the forwards movement
of the front occupants and help to reduce the risk
of injury to the head and the upper part of the
body.
Special openings in the airbag allow the gas to
escape at a controlled rate to restrain the for­
ward movement of the occupant's head and tor­
so. Once the impact has been absorbed, the air­
bag deflates sufficiently for the front occupants
to see forward.

.... Important
safety notes on the front airbag
system
There are a number of safety points concerning
the airbag system which you should remember.
This will help to reduce the risk of injury in an ac­
cident.
Fig. 199 Minimum distance from steering wheel
A WARNING
- It is important for the driver and front pas­
senger to maintain a distance of at least
25 cm from the steering wheel or dash­
board ¢Fig. 199. The airbag system will not
be able to give the required protection if you
sit too close to the steering wheel or dash­
board. There is also a risk of injury if the air­
bags are inflated. Additionally, the front
seat position should always be adjusted to
the body size of the occupant.
- If you do not wear a seat belt, if you lean
forward or to the side, or are not seated cor­
rectly while the vehicle is in motion, you are
at greater risk of injury. Should the airbag
system be triggered in an accident there is
an even greater risk of injury.
- Never let a child travel on the front seat
without an appropriate restraint system. If
the airbag is triggered in an accident, the
child could sustain serious or fatal injuries
¢page 195, Child seats.
- Child seats in which the child faces the rear
of the car are located directly in the path of
the front passenger's airbag if it inflates. In
this case, the child could sustain serious or
fatal injuries if the airbag were to be de­
ployed. 0

system
- Applies to vehicles on which the front pas­
senger's airbag cannot be deactivated: Do
NOT use a rearward-facing child seat on
the front passenger's seat.
- Applies to vehicles with key-operated
switch for deactivating the front passeng­
er's airbag: Do NOT use a rearward-facing
child seat on the front passenger's seat
while the front passenger's airbag is ac­
tive. If you have no alternative but to use a
rear ward-facing child seat on the front
passenger's seat, the front passenger's
airbag must be deactivated beforehand via
the key-operated switch* ¢ page 211.
Make sure that the front passenger's air­
bag is reactivated by means of the key-op­
erated switch* as soon as the child seat is
no longer needed on the front passenger's
seat.
- Occupants sitting in the front of the car
must never carry any objects or pets in the
space between them and the airbags, or al­
low children or other passengers to travel in
this position.
- Do not cover or stick anything on the steer­
ing wheel hub or the soft plastic surface of
the airbag unit on the passenger's side of
the dashboard, and do not obstruct or modi­
fy them in any way. These parts should only
be cleaned with a dry cloth (or with a cloth
moistened with plain water). It is also im­
portant not to attach any objects such as
cup holders or telephone mountings to the
surfaces covering the airbag units.
- Any work on the airbag system or removal
and installation of the airbag components
for other repairs (such as repairs to the
steering wheel or removal of seats) must be
performed by a qualified workshop.
