The tether anchors for the rear seating positions
are located in recesses in the rear window shelf
~ fig . 150 .
A tether is a stra igh t or V-shaped strap that at
t a ches the top p art of a chil d restra int to speci al
anchorage points in the vehicle.
T he purpose of the tether is to reduce the for
ward movement of the child restrain t in a cra sh,
in o rder to help reduce the risk of head i njury that
cou ld be caused by strik ing the veh icle inter ior .
Forward facing child restraints manufactured af
te r September 1, 1999, a re req uired by U.S. fed
eral regula tions to comp ly w ith child head move
ment performance requirements . These new per
formance requirements make a tether necessary on most new child safety seats.
A WARNING
- -
Improper installation of child restra ints w ill
i nc rease the r isk of injury and death in a crash.
- Always follow the instructions provided by
the manufacturer of the child restraint you
i n te nd to insta ll in you r A udi.
- Improper use of child rest raint anchors ( in
cluding tether anchors) can lead to injury in
a co llision . T he anchors are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor
rectly fitted child rest raints.
- Never mount two child restra int systems on
one LATCH low er a nchor point .
- Never attach two child restraint systems to
one tether strap or tether anchorage.

Child safety
-Never attach a tether strap to a tie-down
hook in the luggage compartment.
- Never use child restraint tether anchorages
to secure safety belts or other kinds of occu
pant restraints.
- Never secure or attach any luggage or other
items to the LATCH lower anchorages or to
the tether anchors.
- If a tether or other strap is used to attach a
child restraint to the front passenger seat,
make sure that it is not so tight, that it
causes the weight-sensing mat to measure
more weight than is actually on the seat .
- The heavier weight registered can make the
Advanced Airbag System work as though an
adult were on the seat and deploy the Ad
vanced Airbag when it must be suppressed
causing serious or even fatal injury to the
child.
- If you must install a rearward facing child
safety seat on the front passenger seat be cause of exceptional circumstances and the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light does not
come on and stay on, immediately install
the rear-facing child safety seat in a rear
seating position and have the airbag system inspected by your authorized Audi dealer.
Installing the upper tether strap on the
anchorage
Fig. 151 Tether strap: proper routing and mountin g
Installing the tether strap
.,. Release or deploy the tether strap on the child
restraint according to the child restraint manu
facturer's instructions .
166
.,. Guide the upper tether strap under the rear
head restraint r=:>fig.
151 (raise the head re
straint if necessary).
.,. Tilt the recess flap up to expose the anchor
bracket.
.,. Attach the tether strap anchorage hook into the
opening of the tether anchorage .
.,. Pull on the tether strap hook so that the spring
catch of the hook engages.
.,. Tighten the tether strap firmly following the
child restraint manufacturer's instructions.
Releasing the tether strap
.,. Loosen the tension following the child restraint
manufacturer's instructions.
.,. Depress the spring catch on the hook and re
lease it from the anchorage.
(D Note
If you leave the child restraint with the tether
strap firmly installed for several days, this
could leave a mark on the upholstery on the
seat cushion and backrest in the area where
the tether strap was installed. The upholstery
would also be permanently stretched around
the tether strap. This applies especially to
leather seats.
Using tether straps on rearward-facing
child restraints
Currently, few rearward-facing child restraint sys
tems come with a tether. Please read and heed
the child restraint system manufacturer's instruc
tions carefully to determine how to properly in
stall the tether.
A WARNING
A child in a rearward-facing child safety seat
installed on the front passenger seat will be
seriously injured and can be killed if the front
airbag inflates -even with an Advanced Airbag
System.
- The inflating airbag will hit the child safety
seat or infant carrier with great force and
will smash the child safety seat and child against the backrest, center armrest, or
door.

-A tight tether or other strap on a rearwa rd
facing child rest raint attached to the front
passenger seat can put too much pressure
on the weight-mat in the seat and reg ister a
heavier weight in the Advanced Airbag Sys
tem . The heavier we ight registered can
make the sys tem wor k as t hough an adult
we re on the sea t and dep loy the Advanced
Air bag when it mus t be supp ressed c ausing
serious o r even fa tal i nju ry to the child.
- If you mus t in sta ll a rearwar d fa cing child
sa fety seat on the front passenge r seat be
cause of exceptional c ircumstances and the
PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF light does not
come on and stay on, immediately install
the rearward-fac ing ch ild safety seat in a
rear seating position and have the airbag
system inspected by your author ized Audi
d ealer.

Smart Technology
Smart Technology Notice about data
recorded by the Event
Data Recorder and
vehicle control modules
Event Data Recorder
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Re
corder (EDR) . The main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near crash-like situa
tions, such as an airbag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist in understand
ing how a vehicle 's systems performed . The EDR
is designed to record data related to vehicle dy
namics and safety systems for a short period of
time, typically 30 seconds or less . The EDR in this
veh icle is designed to record such data as:
- How various systems in your vehicle were oper
at ing;
- Whe ther or not the driver and passenger safety
belts were buckled/fastened;
- How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the
accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
- How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understand
ing of the circumstances in which crashes and in
juries occur. NOT E: EDR data are recorded by your
vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs;
no data are recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g .,
name, gender , age, and crash location) are re
corded. However, other part ies, such as law en
forcement, could combine the EDR data with the
type of personally identify ing data routinely ac
qui red during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equip
ment is requ ired, and access to the vehicle or the
E DR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manu
facturer, other parties, such as law enforcement,
that have the specia l equipment , can read the in
formation if they have access to the vehicle or the E DR.
Some state laws restrict the retrieval or down
loading of data stored by EDRs installed in a vehi
cle for the express purpose of retrieving data af-
168
ter an accident or crash event without the own
er's consent.
Audi will not access the EDR and/or similar data
o r g ive it to others -
- unless the veh icle owner (or lessee if the veh i
cle has been leased) agrees; or
- upon the official request by the police; or
- upon the order of a court of law or a govern-
ment agency; or
- for the defense of a lawsuit through the judicial
discovery process .
- Audi may also use the data for research about
veh icle operation and safety performance or
provide the data to a third party for research
purposes without identifying the spec ific vehi
cle or information about the ident ity of its own
er or lessee and only after the recorded vehicle
data has been accessed.
Vehicle control modules
Your vehicle is also equipped with a number of
electronic control modules for var ious vehicle
systems, such as engine management, emission
control, airbags, and safety belts .
These electronic control modules record data dur ing norma l vehicle operation that may be
needed by trained technicians for diagnostic and
repair purposes. The recording capabil ity of these
modules is lim ited to data (no sound is recorded).
Only a small amount of data is actua lly recorded
over a very limited period of time, or stored when
a system fau lt is detected by a contro l modu le.
Some of the data stored may relate to vehicle
speed, direction, or braking, as well as restraint
system use and performance in the event of a crash. Stored data can also only be read and
down loaded w ith specia l equipment that is di
rectly connected to the vehicle.
(D Tips
Your vehicle may be equipped with Audi con
nect . Your use of certain Audi connect fea
tures requires wireless serv ices that are p ro
v ided by a third party wireless telecommuni
cations provider . For details regarding how in
formation obtained through Audi connect is

Checking and Filling
compartment. Wait until no steam or cool
ant can be seen or heard before carefully
opening the hood.
- Keep children away from the engine com
partment.
- Never spill fluids on hot engine compo
nents. They can cause a fire.
- Never touch the radiator fan. The auxiliary
electric fan is temperature controlled and
can switch on suddenly.
- Never open the coolant reservoir cap when
the engine is still warm . The coolant system
is pressurized and hot coolant could spray
out .
- Protect your face, hands and arm from
steam or hot engine coolant by placing a
thick rag over the cap when you open the coolant reservoir .
- Do not remove the engine cover under any
circumstances . This increases the risk of
burns .
- If work on the fuel system or the electrical
system is necessary :
= Always disconnect the battery.
- Never smoke or work near heaters or open
flames. Fluids in the engine compartment
could start a fire.
- Keep an approved fire extinguisher imme
diately available.
- To avoid electrical shock and personal injury
while the engine is running or being started,
never touch:
- Ignition cables
- Other components of the high voltage
electronic ignition system.
- If you must perform a check or repair with
the engine running:
- First, fully apply the parking brake, move
selector lever of automatic transmission
to "P" (Park) .
- Always use extreme caution to prevent
clothing, jewelry, or long hair from getting
188
caught in the radiator fan, V-belts or other
moving parts, or from contacting hot
parts. Tie back hair before starting, and do
not wear clothing that will hang or droop
into the engine.
- Minimize exposure to emission and chemi
cal hazards
