Repair, care and disposal of the airbags
Parts of the a irbag system are installed at
many different places on your Audi. Installing,
removing, servicing or repairing a part in an
area of the vehicle can damage a part of an
a irbag system and prevent that system from
wo rking prope rly in a co llision.
There are some important things you have to know to make sure that the effect iveness of
the system will not be impa ired and that dis
carded components do not cause injury or po l
l ute the env ironme nt.
& WARNING
Imprope r ca re, servicing and repair proce

in any way .
- Never attach any objects such as cu pholders or telephone mountings to the
surfaces covering the airbag units.
- For cleaning the horn pad or instrument
pane l, use only a soft, dry cloth or one
