General information
Why is your seat adjustment so important?
The safety belts and the airbag system can only
provide maximum protection if the front seats are correctly adjusted .
There are various ways of adjusting the front
seats to provide safe and comfortable support
for the dr iver and the front passenger . Adjust
your seat properly so that :
- you can easily and quickly reach all the switches
and controls in the instrument panel
- your body is properly supported thus reducing
physical stress and fatigue
- the safety belts and a irbag system can offer
maximum protection
¢ page 129.
In the following sections, you will see exactly
how you can best adjust your seats.
There are special regulat ions and instructions for
installing a child safety seat on the front pas
senger's seat . Always fo llow the information re
garding child safety provided in¢
page 151 ,
Child safety.
_&. WARNING
Refer to¢ page 112, Driving safety for im
portant information, tips, suggestions and
warnings that you should read and follow for
your own safety and the safety of your pas
senge rs.
_&. WARNING
Incorrect seating position of the driver and all
other passengers can resu lt in serious person
al injury.
- Always keep your feet on the floor when the
vehicle is in motion -neve r put your feet on
top of the instr ument pane l, out of the win
dow or on top of the seat cushion. This ap
plies espec ially to the passengers . If your
seat ing position is incorrect, you increase
the risk of injury in the case of sudden brak ing or an accident. If the airbag inflates and
54
the seating position is incorrect, this cou ld
result in personal injury or even death.
- It is important for both the driver and front
passenger to keep a distance of at least
10 inches (25 cm) between themselves and
the steering wheel and/or instrument panel.
If you're sitting any closer than this, the air
bag system cannot protect you properly . In
addition, the front seats and head restraints
must be adjusted to your body height so
that they can give you max imum protect ion.
- Always try to keep as much distance as pos sible between yourself and the steer ing
wheel or instrument pane l.
- Do not adjust the driver's or front passeng
er 's seat while the vehicle is moving. Your
seat may move unexpected ly, causing sud
den loss of vehicle control and persona l in
jury.
If you adjust your seat while the vehicle
is moving, you are out of position.
Driver's seat '
The correct seat position is important for safe
and relaxed driving.
We recommend that you adjust the dr iver's seat
in the following manner:
~ Adjust the seat in fore and aft direction so that
you can easi ly push the pedals to the floor
while keepi ng your knees slightly bent¢ .&,
in
Why is your seat adjustment so important? on
page 54.
~ Adjust the seatback so that when you sit with
your back against the seatback, you can still
grasp the top of the steering wheel.
~ Applies to veh icles with adjustable head re
straints: Adjust the head restraint so the upper
edge is as even as possible with the top of your
head.
If that is not poss ible, try to adjust the
head restra int so that it is as close to this posi
tion as possible ¢

¢ page 55.
A WARNING
Improper use of steering wheel adjustment
and improper seating position can cause seri
ous pe rsonal injury .
- Adjust the steering wheel column on ly when
the vehicle is not moving t o prevent loss of
vehicle control.
- Adjust the driver's seat or steering wheel so
that there is a minim um of 10 inches (25
cm) between your chest and the steering
wheel
¢page 113, fig. 1 19 . If you cannot
72
maintain t his minimum distance, the airbag
system cannot p rotect you properly.
- If physical limitations prevent you from sit
ting 10 inches (25 cm) or more from the
steer ing whee l, check with your authorized
Audi dea ler to see if adaptive equipment is
availab le.
- If the steer ing whee l is aligned with your
face, the supplementa l driver 's a irbag can
not prov ide as much p rotection in a n acci
dent. Always make su re that the steering
wheel is alig ned with your chest.
- Always hold the steer ing wheel w ith your
hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock posi
tions to reduce the ris k of persona l injury if
the dr iver's air bag dep loys.
- N ever hold the stee ring wheel at the 12
o'cloc k position o r with your hand s inside
the steering wheel rim or on t he steering
wheel hub . Holding the steeri ng whee l the
wrong way can cause serious injuries to the

Driving
-Oc ca siona l noises when the parking brake is
applied and released are normal and are not
a cause for conce rn.
- When the vehicle is parked, the parking
brake goes thro ugh a se lf-test cycle at regu
l ar inte rvals . Any associated noises are nor
mal.

.. Manua l transmission: Shift in to 1st gea r.
.. When on inclines or declines, tu rn the steering
whee l so that the vehicle w ill roll into the curb
if it beg ins to move.
A WARNING
- When you leave your veh icle -even if only
br iefly -always remove the ignition key . This
applies part icu larly when children remain in
t h e ve hicl e. Otherwise the childre n could
s tar t the engine, release the p arking br ake
or opera te e lectr ica l equi pment (e.g . power
win dows) . There is the ris k of an acci den t.
- When the vehicle is lo cked, no one -particu
larly not children should rema in in the vehi
cl e. Locked doors make it more difficult for
emergency wor kers to get into the vehicle -
putt ing lives at risk.
Starting from rest
The starting assist function ensures that the
parking brake is released automatically upon
starting .

Starting and automatically releasing the
park ing brake
.. When you sta rt to drive as usual, the parking
bra ke is automatically released and yo ur vehicle
beg ins to move.
When stop ping at a traffic signal or stopping in
c ity t raffic on vehicles with an a utomat ic t rans
mission, the parking brake can be app lied. The
vehicle does not have to be he ld with the foot
brake. The pa rking brake eliminates the tendency
to c reep with a d rive ra nge engaged. As soon as
yo u drive off as usua l, the park ing b rake is re
l eased a utomat ica lly and the vehi cle starts to
m ove .
Starting on slopes
When sta rting on inclines, the starting assist pre
ven ts the vehicle from unintentionally ro lling
bac k. The braking force of the parking b rake is
n ot released until suff icient dr iving force has
been built up at the wheels.
(D Tips
For safety reasons, the pa rking bra ke is re
l eased a utoma tically on ly w hen t he d river's
s a fety be lt is en gaged in t he b uckle.
Starting off with a trailer
To prevent rolling back unin tentionally on an in
cline, do the f ollowing:
.. Keep the sw itch @¢ page 77, fig . 81 pulled
and dep ress the accelera to r. T he pa rking brake
s t ays app lied and p revents the veh icle from
roll ing ba ckw ard .
.. Yo u can re lease the swi tch @ once you are s ure
that you are deve loping enough d riving force at
the whee ls by depressing the accelerato r.
Depend ing on the weight of the rig (vehi cle an d
t ra ile r) and the seve rity of the incline, yo u may
r o ll backwards as yo u start. You can p revent roll
i ng backwards by holding the parking brake
switch @pulled o ut and acce lerating -just as
you would when starting on a hill wi th a conven
tiona l hand b rake .
Emergency braking
In the event that the conventional brake system
fails or locks.
11-In an emergency, pull the switch@¢ page 77,
fig. 81 and continue to pull it to slow your vehi
cle down with the parking brake .
11-As soon as you release the switch @ or acceler-
ate, the braking process stops.
If you pull the sw itch @and ho ld it above a
speed of about
5 mph (8 km/h), the emergency
brak ing funct ion is initiated. The vehicle is braked
at all four wheels by activa ting the hydraulic
b rake system . The brake performance is similar
to making an eme rgency stop ¢
.&..
In o rder not to activate the emergency brak ing by
mista ke, an audible warning tone (b uzzer)
sounds when the sw itch @ is pulled . As soon as
the switch @ is released, or the accelerator pedal
is depressed, emergency braking stops .
A WARNING
Emergency braking should only be used in an
emergency, when the normal foot brake has
fai led or the brake pedal is obstructed. Using
the parking brake to perform emergency brak
ing w ill slow your vehicle down as if you had
made a full brake a pplicat io n. The laws of
physics cannot be suspended even with ESC
and its associa ted components (A BS, ASR,
ED S). In cor ners and w hen ro ad or weather
condi tions a re bad, a full brake app lication
can ca use the vehicle to skid or the rear end to
break away - risking an accident .
